I got this in an email the other day and think it is a must read kinda long but worth it.

Sad But True
In light of the many perversions and jokes we send along to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This joke today is not intended to be a joke, it's not intended to be funny, it's intended to get you thinking. *Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Showand Jane Clayson asked her "How could God let something like this
happen?" ( regarding the attacks on Sept. 11 ). Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said  "I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are,but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman
He is, I believe He  has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?"
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings ,etc.  I  think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered,
her body found recently) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools.  We said OK. Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school the Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself.  And we said OK. Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped
and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide).
We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said OK. Then someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave. The school administrators said no faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because we don't want any bad publicity, and we surely don't want to
be sued  (there's a big difference between disciplining, touching beating, smacking, humiliating, kicking,etc.).  And we said OK. Then someone said, let's let our daughters have abortions if they want, and they won't even have to tell their parents. And we said OK Then some wise school board member said, since boys will be boys and they're going to do it anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms they want so they can have all the fun they desire, and we won't have to tell their parents they got them at school. And we said OK. Then some of our top elected officials said it doesn't
matter what we do in private as long as we do our jobs. Agreeing with them, we said it doesn't matter to me what anyone, including the President, does in private as long as I have a job and the economy is good. Then someone said let's print magazines with pictures of
nude women and call it wholesome, down-to-earth apprecation of women.And then someone took it further and decided to take pictures of children and put them online and say its freespeech and some agree with them.

Then the entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence, and illicit sex.   Let's record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes. And we said it's just entertainment, it has no adverse effect, nobody takes it seriously anyway,  so go right ahead. Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves. Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out.  I think it has a great deal to do with "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW." Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then
wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they
spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding God, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass
freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in school and workplace.

can't add much, it's all truth..., i saw this nation heading into the sewer around 1960ad & it has gone down hill ever since, i admit there were some leveling out points, but the 90's saw this nation take it's biggest moral nose dive & decline ever in our history.......

if the liberals continue to get their way, this country will cease to be a free nation & trust me..., THAT is when THE SHIT HITS THE FAN...!!!!!!
