Kipling's timeless poem

Everyone must read this poem by Rudyard Kipling! The poem is brilliant and timeless. History is just, it seems, a continuing revenge of natural law or COMMON SENSE!

Who is Barak Obama?

I know this is not news to most pro-life Americans but I think it bears regular repetition. The current Presidente of the United States, Barak Obama is adamantly pro-infanticide.

On March 30, 2001, Obama was the only Illinois senator who rose to speak against a bill that would have protected babies who survived late term labor-induced abortion. Obama rose to object that if the bill passed, and a nine-month-old fetus survived a late-term labor-induced abortion was deemed to be a person who had a right to live, then the law would "forbid abortions to take place." Obama further explained the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment does not allow somebody to kill a child, so if the law deemed a child who survived a late-term labor-induced abortion had a right to live, "then this would be an anti-abortion statute."

"...endowed by their Creator..."

The President of the United States has recently quoted the Declaration of Independence, directly or indirectly, in three recent speeches. Or, perhaps, I should say MISQUOTES it. He suspiciously leaves out the phrase "endowed by their Creator". For those who do not follow either of the hyperlinks to the Declaration or Presidente Obama's speech should know that the text says,

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

This clearly is not accidental, as he has done it now three times. Anyone who knows anything about the history of religious liberty in the western world, upon reading the above statement, should be struck by the near meaninglessness of the statement without the words in question ("endowed by their Creator"). If the Creator (whether Yahweh, Allah, Zeus, the Great Spirit, or a higher consciousness) did not endow humans with rights then from whence do they come? For example, if the right to life does is not intrinsic, several questions are raised.

1) Where do these rights come from?
2) Are there limits to these rights?
3) Who determines whom gets these rights?

The bottom line is that if the right to life is not universal then it can be taken away by others. Hitler and Stalin did not appear to believe that Jews, "Homosexuals", and others had this intrinsic value. This may have been because they did not believe in a higher authority. In Stalin's case we are sure of this. It stands to reason that if Mr. Stalin could not believe that a higher power existed, he could not have believed that it had endowed his political enemies with rights. By the way, this does not mean that Theists do not commit human rights violation. They, in fact, do. However, this is in contradistinction to their stated beliefs.

I am not suggesting that one must be a Theist to believe in natural law. One, simply, need see two facts.
First, the political, religious, and social freedoms of the western world depend on this implicit acceptance of natural law, endowed by a higher authority. Second, as G.K. Chesterton wrote, that if God is removed from society then the government will attempt to become the god. Negligence of Natural Law is the canary in the coal mine. If a higher authority is removed, humans try to take its place and history tells us that consequences are often horrendous.

Please Mr. President, the USA has fought too long and too hard to reach this point of balance between individual rights and responsibilities. Besides, to misquote the Declaration of Independence, is simply irresponsible history.

Muslims using Good Cop/Bad Cop tool

There is a link that shows how Muslim Activists use the Good Cop/Bad Cop threat to advance their agenda. As a former Muslim, I truly empathize with Muslims who would like Islam to be more peaceful. I had hoped for the same thing. I suggest that Muslims who want Islam to be peaceful should work with the west and "out" the radicals, instead of subtly threatening western, non-Muslims.

Again..."Gay Rights" crew is at...logically inconsistent as usual

Wow...I came across this story on Yahoo. Apparently, this Mega-church pastor allegedly was luring "three young men into sexual relationships". The young men were, according to the report, 17 to 18 years old. My first impression was disgust. But, after further contemplation, I see the story for the "gay rights" propaganda that it is. My disgust was based on the fact that I hold the belief that any genital relations outside that confines of a marriage between one man and one woman (that is open to life). I am including homogenital relationship, which are intrinsically evil, in the list of moral Thou Shalt Nots.

However unfortunate that it may be, those who support marriage of the same sex, should not be appalled at this story. If they are, it is hypocritical and logically inconsistent. If they want to be consistent, they should say that the good bishop is bisexual and was exploring his sexuality. So, from whither comes the lawsuit and the outrage? I always find it amazing that those who seek to free themselves from the moral shackles of monotheism, base their pretend moral outrage upon the ethics of the same monotheism. After all, didn't Senor Dostoevsky speak the truth when he said,
"If there is no God, everything is permitted".

Think about it, in the ethical vacuum that is secularism, why should people with same-sex attraction be given equal rights? In the secular, hedonistic, and relativistic culture that we live, the is no compelling ethical standard that we should live up to. Secularists and moral relativists are like a man sitting on a tree limb and sawing it off. Only the monotheistic and, specifically, the Christian culture, says that man (all men) have infinite and intrinsic value. Let us think things through people!
