Wal-Mart is so Cheap!

They think they are doing troops a favor. They think they are acting "green." In my opinion...all they are doing is showing how cheap they really are!

Come on!!!

If you are going to give something Wal-Mart, then go back into your own sewing section and pull brand new cloth to make those lap blankets for our Wounded Warriors!!!

Corporate America is turning into the biggest bunch of green weenies I have ever seen.

The Danger of Pluralism

Chuck Colson recently spoke of the dangers involved in holding a pluralistic worldview. He was speaking those who hold the position that all paths lead to God.

The danger?

Look at Islam for example. Here we have a religion who worships a god that has no tolerance for teddy bears. Teddy bears cannot be named after their premier prophet, yet it is okay to place a crucifix in a jar of urine and call it art. They claim that their god and the Judeo-Christian God are one in the same.

Christians need to start speaking out against this very loudly and boldly, otherwise the politically-correct types of the atheistic and romantic persuasion are going to take America back to the pre-dawn days of France. You know, the time where religion was considered evil and created a vacuum and lead that country into the bloody days of the French Revolution.

Why do I equate this to civil war you ask? It is very simple. If one religion is labeled as murderous, intolerant, and evil, and then all religions are then looked upon as worshipping the same god, then all religions are going to be looked upon as being murderous, intolerant, and evil. The net result will be an attempt to link Christianity with violence and terrorism.

Some would say that Christianity has a checkered past regarding the Crusades, 30 Years War, etc. I argue that those who fought and killed in the name of Christ were not true Christians. In those cases, there is a clear pattern of self-serving pride and a lust for power that those rulers exhibited. No, they were not Christians, but were merely tyrants...despots. True Christians live in accordance to God's laws - love Him, love your neighbor. Does this mean Christians must display pacifistic tendencies all the time? No. Part of loving our neighbor includes defending them when they are attacked.

I digress though. This notion of multicultural tolerance being pounded into the heads of publicly schooled children is the result of a nation worshipping at the feet of the god of "felt needs." This worldview demands that everybody accepts everybody else so as to build up their self esteem. This includes not differentiating on the issue of religion. Otherwise a difference of opinion might hurt somebody's feelings.

Here is my theological interpretation of that thought - TTTHHHHPPPHHHTT!

Christians, stand up for your faith and deliever the truth in love while holding your ground firmly. Do not give in to the politically correct sissies who attempt to make themselves gods by creating their utopia here on earth.

It just ain't gonna happen.

The Suffering of Columbus

Read John Harmon's opinion today on Columbus' plight. We are all suffering tremendously. Why? Because laws are being enforced - specifically immigration laws.

I don't know about you, but I am tired of the Chicken-Little rhetoric that is continuously being spewed by the Left. Global warming has been all the rage for the past year or so (it has seemed like a lifetime), and along with that has been this issue of ILLEGAL immigration. [Emphasis mine.] The truly pathetic thing about Harmon's post though is that Columbus is suffering. "Who will do the factory work?" "Who will do the service jobs?" OH MY GOSH! Oh the tragedy of it all!

I worked in a factory for several years. In fact, the one I used to work in had to lay off several hundred people for months just recently. Why? Not because of the INS coming in and taking ILLEGAL immigrants [Emphasis mine - again] (As an aside...can we just call ILLEGAL [emphasis mine - yet again] immigrants what they truly are - criminals?) and deporting them back to their homeland. Get this...it was because sales were down. Imagine that! Sounds like a vast right-wing conspiracy to me.

And what service jobs? I have no problem getting my hair cut when I want. I do not have trash piling up outside in my yard either. My landscaping has not suffered much to my knowledge, although I am having some trouble with a fungus in my grass. I definitely have no need for manicures either, but I do understand those are a hallmark of the "creative class" - especially men.

Nope...I have yet to see how my life is being negatively impacted by criminal immigrants being sent back to their land of origin.

I wish that instead of breaking the very laws they enact or their predecessors enacted, that lawmakers would act in the spirit of our Constitution. Change the laws if you do not like what is happening today, but don't just disregard existing ones. We are a Republic - a nation of laws. At least I thought we were.

I am amazed at the audacity that people display in their attempts to circumvent and undermine that founding document. I am even more amazed though of the even larger number of people who allow them to get away with it.
