Let me say right up front that I know that this entry is going to irritate some people. I am not Chicken Little running around claiming that the sky is falling down, but let me tell you, the world is headed for a rude awakening. I will give some examples, no one of which is earth shattering, but taken together point to serious trouble.
1. A continual decline in morals and the standards by which we live;
2. An obsession with me;
3. An obsession with sex along with a decline in fidelity not only to one's self, but to one's family;
4. The continual decline in the effectiveness of governments; (In most governments, the people have given up their control of their government. That has happened because they have either not shown proper interest, have not voted, nor have they participated in the process. Here in America we have legislative bodies that do not legislate, Courts that do not judge laws but legislate, or "write" laws through their decisions.)
5. The innocence of our children is being destroyed by exposing them to evils at an early age, nothing seems to be sacred anymore; (Much of this happens because they are given too much freedom and too little supervision.)
6. An obsession with political correctness at all costs, and a total loss of sincerity.
And.....on top of that there are 15 million illegal aliens in the United States right now and the INS has no idea where they are, nor are they doing anything about it.
X X X X X X X XDid you know that there is a difference.....
....in being truely sincere in what you are saying, and in putting a partisan spin on what you say?
....in knowing what you are talking about, and thinking that you might know what you are talking about?
....in speaking only from a partisan side with out having one iota of knowlege about what you are talking about?

~~Those who climb soap boxes to preach "tolerance" of all "lifestyles" are typically the most intolerant of all. It is easy enough to prove: simply tell such preachers of intolerance that you have an opposite opinion.~~
