We Should Be Angry About The War In Iraq 2007-03-31 11:06:00 The number one reason why we should be angry about the war in Iraq
is American service men and women are dying because of political expediency. We will never be able to appease radical Islam.Muslims became outraged when American soldiers entered a Masjid to search it for weapons that were being used in terror campaigns. Yet, this same Muslim community have expressed little are no outrage when innocent people were murdered in that same Masjid while kneeling in prayers. Our misguided media outlets are quick to document anything an American soldier does that might anger a Muslim. Yet, these same media giants rarely discuss Muslim atrocities. Liberals and Democrats don't want to anger Muslims either. So our young men and women take the bullets and bombs and die in the streets of Baghdad while cowardly politicians and media professionals seek ways to appease an unappeasable adversary. The Democrats lied. They said they would not "cut and run". Yet, in less than 90 days, they have manag
A True Religion Is Better Than A Philosophy 2007-03-31 10:46:00 Having a religious belief based on the teachings and the words of a true and living GOD (YHVH) is far better than having a philosophy created by men and women just like you and me. Why? Because 9 times out 10 these "self styled" or so called" philosophers are no better than you or me. These people are driven by their egos and their narrow and limited understanding of life, reality and actuality. Why narrow and limited? They, like you and me, do not live long enough. The best they can produce is a belief system that is followed by individuals that are weak and narrow minded themselves.This happens frequently because the overwhelming majority of people on planet earth do not know the difference between a belief system and a true religion. Belief systems are not religions at all. They are merely the philosophies and traditions of men and women masquerading as a religion. These belief systems are given credibility by intellectuals and the academic community because of perceived Read more:Philosophy

The Immigration Controversy 2007-03-31 10:29:00 According to whose statistics you believe, we have over 12 million people within our borders that are very capable of helping us, hurting us or killing us and we have no idea who they are.Let's not get sidetracked. America does not have a controversy over immigration. The vast majority of Americans have a problem with illegal immigration. Undocumented immigrants and uncontrolled illegal entry into our country hurt our economy, institutions and services. Let's go by the numbers, according a published report in the L.A.Times.... 1. 40% of all workers in L.A. County ( L.A. County has 10.2 million people) are working for cash and not paying taxes. This was because they are predominantly illegal immigrants, working without a green card. 2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens. 3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens. 4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi- Read more:Controversy
How Can You Know GOD Exist? 2007-03-31 10:08:00 How does anyone know GOD exist? The mere fact that you have a concept and/or realization of GOD or an all powerful entity or force called GOD is proof of the existence of GOD or that force or entity.Why? Because it is impossible to think or believe in something that you do not know. The primary reason why so many people have a problem with understanding and accepting the reality of GOD is because they have a mind that has the ability to ask a question. If GOD is...then, why? If GOD is not...then, how come? Seeking the answers to questions from an inquiring mind is a daunting task; especially when that mind demands instant proof. Let's follow this line of reasoning to its ultimate conclusion. What human being do you know.... 1. Has the ability to put an entire universe in place?2. Has the ability to hang a planet in orbit around an explosive ball of gases thousands of miles in diameter and not be incinerated by it?3. Can create and develop gravitational forces that are so precise
Empowerment Through Self Discovery 2007-03-31 09:54:00 Self discovery is the only process by which human beings can educated themselves, understand themselves, grow spiritually and intellectually and empower themselves. Why is this so vitally important?It is vitally important because unless an individual knows who he/she really is, he/she is a stranger to himself/herself. Unless a person knows his/her talents and abilities he/she is forever crippled as a human being and subject to the whims and dictates of others. Self discovery is a process that begins and ends with you. This process, in its simplest form, is the means by which you grow and develop intellectually and spiritually. The physical you grows on its own. All you basically have to do is feed it and properly and take of it. The manner, means and method by which the physical aspect of our being grows is normally beyond our conscious control. Consequently, the only aspects of your being over which you can exercise control is your spiritual and intellectual self. Self discovery Read more:Discovery
Who Is Responsible For Terrorism? 2007-03-31 09:22:00 Deciding who is responsible for terrorism is an exercise in intellectual futility. Even discussing it adds credibility to the argument that the tenets of "Political Correctness" have gone far beyond tolerance. Could it be, that in their misguided attempt to be "Politically Correct", the intellectually astute are distorting their own ability to think clearly on any subject? There is absolutely nothing to decide. The terrorist are responsible for their acts of terrorism. The answer to this question now opens the door to debate as to why they are committing these unspeakable acts of brutality against innocent men, women and children. In this discussion arena, any reason is as good as any other. Such is the nature of intellectual madness.A brutal killer can now be excused for his/her dastardly deeds because of what happened in his/her childhood. Madmen, masquerading as religious, spiritual or political leaders, can now be excused for their heinous crimes because they have suffered po Read more:Responsible

Faith Vs Reason 2007-03-31 09:07:00 No concept or precept is more misunderstood than faith. Faith
can survive without reason, but it is impossible for reason to survive without faith. Every decision an individual makes is based on faith. What confuses the uninformed is the notion that faith is best expressed or explained within a religious or spiritual context. Why should any intelligent person celebrate a man or woman of reason, when reason, itself, is an expression of faith?Faith, in it's simplest form, is no more or less than a belief in an outcome. Reason
, in its simplest form, is no more or less than the belief in one's ability to exercise sound judgment and make good decisions. Is this or is this not an outcome? Even the absence of reason and rationality is an expression of faith. What we should be celebrating is the triumph of faith over our individual and collective doubts and fears. Everything men and women do is an expression of faith not reason or rationality. The more educated or learned an indivi
Colonizing America Vs Illegal Immigration 2007-03-26 02:43:00 One of my readers has taken the position that America
n colonist were illegal immigrants. I'm glad she did. The Europeans that left their countries and came to America were not illegal immigrants. America, as a nation, did not exist at that time. That is precisely why the Puritans, Quakers, Lutherans, Calvinist and others seeking freedom from persecution came here. No European nation would allow them or any one else to enter their countryenmasse without permission. Such an act would be considered an invasion and met with military force. In addition, Protestant beliefs were not acceptable in many European communities. The Native American nations accepted the settlers until their numbers began to grow. Let's examine the facts. It was the native Americans that began allying themselves with the settlers and colonists in their wars against each other. They had no idea what they were unleashing upon themselves. The rest is history. If the 12 largest tribes had banded together against th Read more:Illegal Immigration
Our Responsibility To Our Nation 2007-03-26 01:47:00 It is not our duty or responsibility to become psychologist. Our duty and responsibility is to demand that our government enforce our immigration laws, because not enforcing them will endanger the lives of thousands. There are no precedents in modern history that support illegal immigration into another sovereign nation. Let's assume for the purposes of this post, that all illegal immigrants in America came from Mexico. If these 12 million people had stayed in Mexico and participated in their own democratic process, they would definitely impact local and national elections. Mexico is not a poor country. It is one of the richest in the world. Mexico, like Russia, North Korea, Most of Central America, South America, Africa, Thailand, India, and the vast majority of the remaining countries on this planet are not suffering from a lack of human resources or ways and means to generate sustainable economies.. The vast majority of these countries suffer from the lack of genuine leadershi Read more:Responsibility
What Are The Great Issues Of Our Time? 2007-03-26 01:17:00 I think it's about time that all our political leaders and political advocacy groups wake up and face the true actuality of our situation. The Post War Era is now officially over. What Post War Era? -- World War II.Europe, Japan and China have re-emerged as major players in the international arena. In a few years, Russia; as a nation, will also re-emerge. The advantages America enjoyed over the rest of the nations on planet earth is gradually eroding. As more nations and peoples fully recover from the devastation of World War II, our future will become even more uncertain and the world; itself, increasingly more dangerous. The reason: There are many old debts that must settled. The settling of these old debts will impact everything we do in America.Therefore, I caution against "Hot Button" politics and "Issue" driven reactionism. Let's briefly, ask the questions...what are the great issues of our time, nationally and internationally? Let's not do this casually, but bring the greate Read more:Great

Exposing The Myth About Western Culture 2007-03-25 23:57:00 It's about time our schools, colleges and universities stop teaching our children about the triumph of Western
Culture. I think it is time, we stop lying to ourselves and to our children.We are victims of our own propaganda. The reason why Western Culture is a dominating force on planet earth has nothing to do with Western Culture, science or our natural resources and everything to do with GOD. For all you folks that have a problem with GOD, put a universe in place; then, I'll consider your point of view. For centuries westerners went to Egypt and elsewhere to learn and understand the applied sciences. Throughout history you can read about the improbable things that happened so that one group emergedvictorious over another. Carthage should have easily defeated the Romans, but they did not. If it were not for unbelievable decisions made byMedo-Persian rulers, the Macedonians would have never defeated the Medes and the Persians. Athens should have easily defeated the Spartans,
What Makes A Nation? 2007-03-25 23:02:00 Whenever I hear advocates for legitimizing illegal immigration, I have to remind people of Japan, South Korea and Israel. All of these countries were poor. Japan is a nation of few natural resources. The Japanese people have always been afraid of poverty. So afraid in fact, that they developed a work ethic that is so intense and remarkable that it propelled them from a poverty stricken nation to a world power.Japan was a world power before and during World I and World War II and they are an economic power today. When they were poor and struggling, what international agency helped them? What UN mandate? What foreign agency loaned them money during their rise from poverty to riches?How many Japanese are illegal immigrants anywhere in the world? I'll tell you. The answers are none, none, none and no one. The Japanese people have earned everything they have. Even in America; few, if any, Japanese are in our prisons or on the welfare rolls. Even though they were horribly discriminated
What Is The Real Mesaage Of The 2006 Mid Term Elections? 2007-03-25 21:59:00 While the Democrats are flexing their political muscle and the Republicans are still reeling from their defeat, the real losers in the mid-term elections of 2006 are the American People.The U.S. House of Representatives has returned to its former theatrics and it took less than 30 days for the U.S. Senate to return to its comedy routine. There are only two real messages I can glean from the 2006 mid-term elections. Message #1: The American voters put back in power the same party that flaunts its perversions, corruption, immorality, back room, back door, and deceptive legislative practices and its utter contempt for the rule of law. Pundits, "so called" experts and Democratic operatives are telling us that we, the American people, have sent a strong message that we are upset with the Bush Administration and their supposedly mismanagement of the War on Terror. Therefore, they are essentially telling us that we, the American people, prefer graft, corruption, perversion, immorality a Read more:Elections
What Does Al Qaida, Ho Chi Minh and Saddam Hussein Have In Common? 2007-03-25 20:54:00 What does Al-Qaida, Ho Chi Minh and SaddamHussein
have in common? They were once our allies. It seems our government leaders have managed to create a history of turning on former allies.From the beginning of it's history, theVietnam War was a conflict that could have been avoided if government leaders in Europe had acted responsibly. In fact, all wars are avoidable if leaders acted responsibly. It was precisely because of France's suppression of the rights of the Vietnamese people that eventually bought Ho Chi Minh to power. Believe it or not, all Ho Chi Minh really wanted to be was a chef. He became disillusioned over the hypocrisy he saw in Western governments and embraced communism while living abroad in France. Let's briefly review the history. Following World War I, on behalf of a group of Vietnamese patriots, Ho Chi Minh petitioned the European powers at the Versailles peace talks for equal rights in French Indochina, but he was ignored. He was rebuffed first by President Woo Read more:Common
What Fools We Mortals Be 2007-03-25 16:06:00 It never ceases to amaze me how so many well educated and intelligent people can be misled so easily. This post is the first in a series that I hope will stimulate newspaper readers to think.I also want to challenge talk radio listeners, and viewers of cable news shows to use their brains to think deeply about the information they are receiving. If we don't use our brains to think and to examine what we are being told more closely, what fools we mortals be. First, let's lay the groundwork. Far too often, people confuse possessing great skill or great wealth with having great intelligence. Far too many confuse repeating information with having genuine knowledge and too many of us readily accept opinions as though they are actual facts. With this understanding in mind, let's begin to re-examine the information we are using to make our decisions. Could it be that we, as a society, are not basing our decisions concerning major political, social and economic issues on real intell Read more:Fools
Energy Policy 2007-03-25 12:48:00 There are only two type problems on planet earth; natural and man made. There are no others. Our energy needs are natural and man made. Natural because we are dealing with a resource we did not create.We can use our energy resources, but humanity had nothing to with the creation of oil, coal, trees and natural gases. If the availability of energy resources were our only problem, I can easily solve this problem for you because there are only 2 logical courses of action.1. Develop and implement programs, policies and procedures that would limit our use and need for natural energy reserves. Or...2. Develop and implement programs, policies and procedures to deal with the aftermath in the event this could not be done. Surely, any intelligent group of people can figure this out.Since what nature has done or will do is beyond our and my immediate control, I must identify our collective problems before I can solve them for you. Our man made problems can be lumped into 12 broad categories.Fai Read more:Energy

The Iraqi Blunder 2007-03-25 00:01:00 Now that the Democrats are back in power, or should I say have taken over the Circus called the United States Congress, now is a good time to clear the air on Iraq so we can move forward on this critical issue.Let me solve this problem for you. Iraq was a strategic and tactical blunder. If anyone can't see this, I don't know what Turnip truck dropped you off. The Bush Administration keeps pointing out that America has not been attacked since 9/11. The fact of the matter is: Al Qaeda has not attacked America because they don't want to or need to. Why should they, when they are achieving their objective in Iraq? Almost 3,000 Americans dead, over 20,000 wounded, and some horribly. And...perhaps another 8,000 - 10,000 will be committed to the war effort. If we stay the course without significant policy changes, perhaps 5,000 - 10,000 dead and over 50,000 wounded. Every dead or wounded American soldier strengthens the Jihadist movement. It does not weaken it. The Taliban have not been Read more:Iraqi
My Thoughts On The Death Penalty 2007-03-24 02:32:00 The Death Penalty
is a legitimate means by which civil society can rid itself of individuals that knowingly and willfully take the lives of others. It is not given to mankind to judge one another.However; we can, as a society, judge the actions of another human being. If those actions have destroyed a human life, then that life should be destroyed as well and as expeditiously as possible. Why is this so important? The answer: Time. Time is the enemy of the victim and the ally of the assailant. Time softens impact and weakens resolve. Since the reality of time is such a critical factor when it comes to the use of the death penalty, let me solve this problem for you. The time to exercise our legitimate right to protect ourselves and the lives law abiding citizens is when the acts of the convicted murderer/s are fresh in our collective minds, when the evidence of the horror of the deed has not passed from active consciousness, when the family impacted by an individual or group's ba
The Case For Justice 2007-03-23 10:57:00 Is there justice in the world? Absolutely not. Should there be? Absolutely. Why isn't the concept of justice and the truth and spirit of justice practiced more often? Let me solve this problem for you.The answer and reason are one and the same. People; and more specifically, the mind-set and ideology of people. We can add to this, the character, personality and nature of a people. The hue and cry for justice has been with mankind since he first appeared on earth. What justice was there when Able slew his brother Cain? The answer. None. As a society grows and develops, the concept of justice and the codification of justice should be thoroughly ingrained in every human being, but this rarely happens. The need for justice and its practice never changes. Justice
is what we all need and need to apply in all our dealings with others. Without justice and a working implementable concept of it, we are no better than beasts clad in modern clothing. There are numerous reasons why the concept of
The Rise And Fall Of Democracies 2007-03-18 14:46:00 The following information was emailed to me to evaluate. In my opinion it is informative. Therefore, I have decided to add it to my blog. It is no secret America is in decline. We are simply marking time until the end comes..All the elements are now in place to usher in a new world order where America is no longer a major player. For those of you that have a problem with understanding where America is on the Geological Timeline, let me solve this problem for you by posting the following information.About the time our original 13 states adopted their new constitution, in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic 2,000 years prior: "A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment

Are Our Political Leaders, Government Agencies, Public Officials And Business Owners Aiding And Abetting Criminals? 2007-03-18 12:41:00 Aiding and abetting a criminal ( anyone that has violated a statute). A statute ( a law passed by a legislative body) is also a crime. Crime (an act in violation of a law).A law (all the rules of conduct established by the authority or customs of a nation.) There are no, ifs, ands, or buts, either do or do not. Let me solve this problem for you. If we, as a nation, choose not to enforce our laws or give amnesty to those that violate them, then we are creating, nurturing and developing a culture of crime and violence. We automatically put ourselves on the same path that is turning Mexico and practically all of Central and South America into failed states. Failed states, without exception, have corrupt, self-serving and ineffective government. Leaders
are more concerned about themselves and their own self enrichment than the needs of their people. Practically all failed states have institutionalized graft, crime and corruption. Laws within these countries protect the influential, the Read more:Business

Are Liberals Dangerous To Your Health? 2007-03-16 07:23:00 Many people have a problem deciding whether or not to support liberal political, economic, moral and/or social agendas. Let me solve this problem for you; then, make up your own mind if that's possible.Liberalistic philosophy has been the scourge of humanity since GOD put us on earth. For all you folks that have a problem with GOD, put a universe in place, then I'll consider your point of view.Every great civilization the world has ever known except three, has been severely weakened or has fallen before the liberal horde. Just what is liberalism? In theory and by definition, liberalism sounds great. If you don't believe it, look it up in a good dictionary. In practice, it has brought more death, destruction and misery than all the wars prior to World World I combined. This incessant philosophy has led to the rise and empowerment of the most brutal, barbaric and blood-thirsty regimes this world has ever known. At it's core liberalism is the belief that mankind can direct its own aff Read more:Health

The Immigration Issue Let Me Solve This Problem For You 2007-03-16 06:13:00 We have over 12 million people within our borders that are very capable of helping us, hurting us or killing us and we have no idea who they are. Undocumented aliens hurt our economy, institutions and services.They also hurt themselves by being outside of our legal system. They rob themselves and their children of respectability. Let me solve this problem for you. Either enforce our laws or repeal them. If our lawmakers repeal them, then open the floodgates and let everyone in (terrorist included). If our legal and law enforcement agencies are going to enforce the law, then do what the law requires. This is very simple and very uncomplicated.Once the law has been adhered to, we can discuss in an intelligent and forthright manner any extenuating circumstances impacting future citizenship. Not before. This is the essence of true justice. If illegal aliens were sincere in their intentions, they would confess their crime of illegal entry and throw themselves on the mercy and justice of the Read more:Problem

Before We Lay Claim To The Title Of World Leader 2007-04-13 02:35:00 Before we start beating our chest and throwing up our arms in jubilant celebration as a WorldLeader
, let's not forget our checkered past. Many Europeans remember what it was like to be an indentured servant or slave in this country. They know the vast majority of African-Americans were slaves in a nation that proclaimed freedom for all. Even to this day, there are many hate groups within our borders. The world has not forgotten how we Americans also discriminated against Italians, the Irish, Chinese, Japanese and Jews. They know America is king of the hill, not because of our virtue, but because of our military industrial complex and ideological systems that cripple many nations on this planet. There are many peoples and cultures around the world that have not forgotten the injustices that led to Shay's Rebellion and the veterans march on Washington. The world knows we still have a tendency to allow rampant corruption within our city, state and federal governments.They hav Read more:Title
When Will We Get Tired Of War? 2007-04-12 09:12:00 Humanity is seemingly locked in an endless struggle between opposing forces - light and dark, hot and cold, good and bad, right and wrong and war and peace. The synthesis of this struggle is peaceful co-existence.The antithesis of this struggle is violence and destruction. When this antithesis happens, evil emerges victorious over good and war triumphs over peace. Our inability to overcome our 3 great nemeses, fear (ignorance and uncertainty), failure to communicate and failure to cooperate has lead to more wars than I care to count.War is violence and destruction on a monumental scale. War is a savage beast that people unleash upon themselves and it devours everything and everyone in its path. Many of us labor under the illusion that war comes after years of peace, when in actuality peace comes after years of war. Unlike conflicts which can go indefinitely, the furious energy a war requires burns out quickly. The side that is losing, grows weary of the fighting, destroying an
Why Are So Many Americans Pill Poppers? 2007-04-12 07:48:00 America is becoming a nation of pill poppers. I wonder why? It seems the pharmaceutical industry has developed a pill for all our ailments. I don't need to solve this problem for you.The following report excerpt should explain why? “Modern farming practices have reduced the soil’s ability to produce nutritious food.Pesticides and fertilizers may boost a farmer’s yield, but these toxic chemicals can also destroy vitalmicroorganisms that break down and release minerals and other nutrients found in fertile soil.As a result, agribusiness has stripped the average diet of essential nutrients your body requiresto maintain optimal adult health. Consumption of nutritional supplements is desperately neededto supply the nutrients that are missing from your diet.”This information was reported by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture to the U.S. Senate over 70 years ago, in 1936!… Read more:Americans

However, after looking over thousands of articles, I could not find the author.If you have some time go over to Helium.com and read some of the articles. you will find a wealth of information on a variety of different subjects written by hundreds of qualified authors. The excepts, I am using in this post are taken directly from the article and is not my original writing. I hope you enjoy what you are about to read.

Are We Americans Collectively Dumb As A Nation? 2007-04-16 08:36:00 The first thing we need to do is to identify and define what we mean by dumb. Identification is necessary to establish how the word dumb is being used. From "dumb's" usage, we can determine a workable definition. If we stick with Webster's definition, then dumb means unable to make articulate sounds, having no powers of speech and deaf. Surely, by this definition, we can emphatically state that we Americans
are not collectively dumb as a nation, even though there are many American citizens that have this handicap. Colloquially speaking, the word dumb means stupid. Stupid, according to Webster, refers to a condition of having slow or low apprehension, being dull-witted, lacking understanding or sluggish. If you are characterizing the collective state of America as a nation of stupid people, the answer is a resounding NO.Even though there are plenty of dull knives in the drawer, a lot of elevators don't make it to top floors and there are numerous people in leaking li
