Decline of the American Empire

Supreme Court Removes Moral Benchmark
By Chris M Fluharty
Monday June 27th, 2005, the highest court in the land ignored years of tradition and heritage and voted 5-4 to remove two framed copies of the 10 Commandments from a Kentucky courthouse. This was not only a removal of a symbol, but the removal of America’s moral benchmark. No longer will societies laws be based on truth but rather a relative idea of truth. The Ten Commandments are more than just a religious enigma, they are also a standard by which our laws were formed and based. One does not have to be a Christian or a Jew to understand and respect the truths behind the Ten Commandments. Nearly every early civilization had some sort of code by which they should live, i.e. the Code of Hammurabi which is the earliest recorded set of laws. So why is America so fearful to have a reminder that we are to live by a standard?
The slow demise of America can be attributed to the Supreme Courts personal agenda to remove God and His standards from our society. In the 60's, it was school prayer in the name of tolerance. The 70's, it was the legalization of murder by allowing choice rather than constitutional rights for the unborn. This was done in the name of "so-called liberty". Who’s liberty? Today we have a constant bombardment from sue happy complainers who are enabled by so-called civil right attorneys such as the ACLU. Where will it stop?
If we as a nation do not stop this moral decline we will become the next Roman Empire. Take a look and see for yourself. In his seven volume set of books, The Decline and Fall of The Roman Empire, Edward Gibbon listed six reasons for the fall of the empire. First, there was a rapid increase of divorce. In America more than 1 out of 2 marriages end in divorce. Second, was high taxes and spending for free bread and circuses. Today one spends seven months working just to pay his taxes, and America has become a welfare state that is out of control. Third, was the obsession of sports and pleasure. The more brutal, the more exciting. Sports in America are a billion-dollar a year enterprise. And with events like the Ultimate Fighting Championship they have also become more brutal. Fourth, it was the building of great displays that portrayed the societies views on morals. Today Hollywood’s blockbusters are nothing more than hedonistic orgies and are teaching our kids that there are no rules. Fifth, was the decay of religion. Today, less than 50% of our Pastors have a biblical worldview. They preach on self-esteem and wealth but rarely do they preach on sin. Our pastors are silent because they themselves are clueless to their own decay. Lastly, Gibbon states that there was a spread of effeminacy. The homosexual movement in America is growing faster than you may think. Canada and Massachusetts have already allowed gay marriage. Many school curriculums now push the gay agenda as normal. Are we the next Rome? Will you allow this to continue?
Now that America has no moral benchmark, we are destined to decline at an even greater rate. Sin will no longer be allowed to be called sin. Soon, as in Canada, we will be jailed for saying anything they view as absolute truth. God’s laws are no longer accepted in America. The tyranny has began. Surely, we are in the last days.

Yet another rape by the S. Court

I am not surprised the left leaning Springfield News Leader would believe that the Supreme Court made the right decision. They did nothing more then create an open season on the property owner. By failing to do nothing and passing the buck, they allowed corrupt politicians to take a persons property for "public use" and this is unreasonable and unconstitutional. "Public use" is nothing more then code for screw you tax payer. If they think the state should decide this issue then why don’t they do that for every issue. For example shouldn’t a state decide if pre born murder is a local issue? If the government sees a chance to profit, they can and now will take your property, then sell it to private development in the name of increased tax revenue and say that it is "public use" because the public will benefit from the tax. We must elect leaders who will not let this happen. Our State Congress should go into special session to pass a bill that would stop this sort of political tyrnanny. This is yet again gross judicial negligence and a rape of our Constitution. Monday we will see if they keep this kind of thinking. Shouldn't a State also decide if they post the 10 Commandments. We shall see.

Dogs, flags, and much more

Springfield seems to have lost its direction. The City councils wants to reward some friends on the backs of communities. Dogs are attacking (pit Bulls) anyways. The NAACP is crying foul because the Confederate Battle Flag flew for a single day. How long will Springfield let this happen. How long will we keep Godless politicians in power? You must make your voice heard.
