I'd like to wish everyone a merry CHRISTmas and happy new year. May it not suck as bad as the last one.

This country is getting way to damn hyped on removing God from the lives of the citizens. If "Under God" offends you in the pledge, then don't say it. If you don't like "In God We Trust" on our money, then don't spend it. If you don't like Christ in Christmas, then don't celebrate it. Christmas isn't a day to give and get presents from some jolly fat dude who slides down your chimney and flies off to the north pole with his stupid little reindeer. It is a day for celebrating the glorious birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who delivered all people from the wrath of hell by showing us how to loose the chains of the devil.

God is not dead, nor does he sleep, but if this country keeps moving in the direction it is going, God will die because everyone will forget about him. And I, for one, am not going to let that happen.

If there's one thing I've learned from my Research Design and Analysis class, it's this: people in this country have no idea what the difference is between rights and privledges. We always say "We have the RIGHT to..." when that's not always the case. Rights cannot be taken away. Privledges can. For example: we do NOT have the RIGHT to vote. We have the PRIVLEDGE to vote. It is a privledge because it can be taken away. We do not have the RIGHT to bear arms. Our guns can be taken away. Smoking is not a right. Shopping at a public market is not a right. Having the Internet available to you is not a right. We HAVE the right to remain silent. The right to have a lawyer. The right to a trial. Though, trial by jury is a privledge, as that can be taken away.

This will forever be a controversy in this country and will never be solved. What we need to do is get off our sorry suing asses, take less offence, and let our administeration do what we elected them to do. Useless groups like the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) and people with two-bit lawers who find the tinyest little loophole they can to make a mountain out of a molehill need to find something more important to do with their lives.

This is what I believe: God Lives. Jesus Christ is his son, and he lives. He is seated on the right hand of God and will save the world from a forever destruction. Christ was killed to atone for the sins of the world so that we may live again. I believe this with every fiber of my being, and I dare anyone to sue me because of it.


H-D

not everyone is going to be christian and i can respect that but what i don't respect is people suing at every opportunity and events like christmas and easter becoming totally irrevelant. people who move to countries like the u.s know of the christian heritage and should never seek to change that (yes i know many of the founding fathers were diests). man by his nature is a religious beast and that is something that will never change and instead of becoming a totally secular society we all need to learn to respect (not just tolerate) eachother.

okay don't you guys hate it when you buy a new car and you park your car on the wrong side of the bowser?
