Concerning abortion. Distinguish same-sex relationships from marriage; perhaps partners, but definitely no marriage! Benefits are equal everywhere, already, by legal wills, etc.!
Wrong is wrong,
even if everyone is doing it!
Right is right,
even if no one is doing it!
The silenced majority is more indecipherable as Christ’s light is lost with so many being sucked-in by openly practiced shamelessness,crude, rude,etc. made more tolerable by well aired and published progressive liberalism, a self-interest religion forcing its doctrine of depravity upon the children, defying the only truth that does make one free: trust in God, industriousness, and integrity by principled self-mastery! Scares me to death where the progressives are taking us: entitlements, lack of initiative, wantonness, materialism!

"principled self-mastery"? Wasn't there a Seinfeld show about that?

Seinfeld? Who's that?
No, really. I do know what the show is, but I turn stations when he comes on. The several times I have attempted to watch, I've turned it off! They seemingly are funny and appear to protray a fairly vice-free front, but they promote some of the very things I oppose. Promicuity and deceit are not acceptable social norms, and they persuade others that they are! We have very few upright shows from which to choose, now days!
Many advertisements are no better! An example is the newest Degirno[?} Pizza Ad: deceit by the pizza boy, bossom immodesty, and blatant proprositioning! Why? Because we have been enduring until we have now allowed the embracing.
1John 2:15-16 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

Marriage rites and rights should not be legislated by the government. There must be separation of church and state. I say this as a strong Christian.
All must remember that religion and religious freedom is not solely confined to Christianity or Judaism in our democracy.
Our constitution calls for equal rights for all Americans. The bible calls for us to love one another and not judge.
Scares me to death where those who judge and espouse hate in God's name are trying to take us.
Amen.

We judge not the people, but the acts! Especially, when one is unable to watch television even for a short moment or stand in the grocery checkouts, without being indated with distasteful, graphic productions. We used to be able to watch programs that were uplifting and having some substance: Andy Griffeth Show, Little House, the two Angel Shows, Ben Matlock,Murder She Wrote, etc., but now we have crude, rude, and lude for the majority of the programming. Why? Because we have reached the embracing segment of Abhor, Endure, and Embrace. There are no limits, today!
I used to substitute teach in high schools, and I loved the retrobates. I dearly tried to show them that I cared about their futures. Most teachers had crossed them off and literally snubbed their noses at them. I had some respond fairly well by trying harder and accounted to me of their efforts. The acts need some judging or our society is going to fall just as Rome. There is no strength in weaknesses.

The progressives aren't taking you any where you don't want to go. Enjoy your religion, your sex, your marriage and your family however it is you want.
Let everyone else do the same.

No, they are not taking me anywhere, but they are taking so many that our country is losing the strength of its families through scandalous proportions of broken homes. Decency is the only way to build and preserve vigorous self-esteem, families, and nations.
I can a great deal about our country and citizens. If my "inane ramblings" sounded like hate, I am sorry. I do not feel hate, only frustration at being bombarded by immoral media, constantly, while we so called "zealots" are told to shut-up, as your hateful entry.
Pron is every bit as addicting as alcohol, drug, and tobacco. Most media promote "soft" porn which has gravitated to hard porn by unfathonable numbers which has contributed to so many of our social problems: preditors and murders!
Aren't you worried about it, too? Should be.

Should have proof-read my entry for misspellings.
It's "I care" and porn. I was not homeschoolded!

"tryinghard" are you? Well, "my friend," you really are not trying hard enough - perhaps it would help if you put your Bible down once in a while and turned off the Christian zealots spewing hatred on your radio, and instead enrolled in an writing course in the local junior college. Then SOMEONE SOMEWHERE might actually take your inane ramblings seriously. Nyah. That wouldn't work either. Nevermind.

Trying hard is a great example of where homeschooling can lead. Next time, try harder with grammar and punctuation, won't you?

Use a period,semi-colon or colon after your word "punctuation."
Were you homeschooled? I was not.
Another one of my favorite sayings is:
"Sweep your own front porch
before sweeping someone else's."
Yes, I should have used more periods or explanations, but the puncuations did keep the thoughts clear enough. Thank you for your comment.

You are right. The home-schooling crack was a low blow. I'm a bit cranky today. I'm sorry.
I should have said, "Next time, try harder with grammar and punctuation," and left it at that.

Trying Hard should change his handle to Very Trying.
