After reading these quotes from famous American leaders both past and present, think about your nation. What has happened? Where are we going as a country? I dare say that it is the right direction. Remember that the highway to destruction is a downhill road.  Consider Christ as you think about America. Consider the foundation that was laid to set up the structure of America today. Daily, the government is demoralizing and de-sensitizing us to the actual truths that formed this great nation. We must get back to the roots of America. This is our CAUSE!

American Holocaust

October 2, 2009

americanholocaust

By the title you may be wondering “What in the world is this about? I took history classes in high school and we never learned about an ‘American Holocaust’.” And you’re right! History teachers today do not tell you of this American holocaust because it is not history. It is the longest war raged in the past century. The Holocaust I’m talking about is nearly 9 times worse than the Jewish Holocaust that took place in Germany under the leadership of Adolph Hitler during World War Two. This holocaust has been going on since January 22, 1973. Thirty-six years and eight months ago, the Supreme Court passed Roe v. Wade, the most controversial and politically significant case in U.S. Supreme Court history. In Roe v. Wade, the Court held that a mother may abort her pregnancy for any reason, up until the “point at which the fetus becomes ‘viable.’” The Court defined viability as the potential “to live outside the mother’s womb, albeit with artificial aid,” adding that viability “is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks.” The Court said that, after viability, abortion must be available when needed to protect a woman’s health.1 Truth is that since that dreaded date in 1973, 50 Million unborn children have been murdered in America. Across the globe, 46 Million babies are murdered annually (that’s approximately one every two seconds!) and approximately 115,000 every day. In America, nearly 1.5 million murdered every year and approx. 3,700 every day! Approximately 24% of all U.S. pregnancies end in abortion. Here are some stats for you:2

  1. 52% of women obtaining abortions in the U.S. are younger than 25: Women aged 20-24 obtain 32% of all abortions; Teenagers obtain 20% and girls under 15 account for 1.2%.
  2. White: 60% of all abortions, their abortion rate is well below that of minority women. Black women are more than 3 times as likely as white women to have an abortion, and Hispanic women are roughly 2 times as likely.
  3. 64.4% of all abortions are performed on never-married women; Married women account for 18.4%of all abortions and divorced women obtain 9.4%.
  4. Women identifying themselves as Protestants obtain 37.4% of all abortions in the U.S.; Catholic women account for 31.3%, Jewish women account for 1.3%, and women with no religious affiliation obtain 23.7% of all abortions. 18% of all abortions are performed on women who identify themselves as “Born-again/Evangelical”.
  5. Women with family incomes less than $15,000 obtain 28.7% of all abortions; Women with family incomes between $15,000 and $29,999 obtain 19.5%; Women with family incomes between $30,000 and $59,999 obtain 38.0%; Women with family incomes over $60,000 obtain 13.8%.
  6. 1% of all abortions occur because of rape or incest; 6% of abortions occur because of potential health problems regarding either the mother or child, and 93% of all abortions occur for social reasons (i.e. the child is unwanted or inconvenient).
  7. 52% of all abortions occur before the 9th week of pregnancy, 25% happen between the 9th & 10th week, 12% happen between the 11th and 12th week, 6% happen between the 13th & 15th week, 4% happen between the 16th & 20th week, and 1% of all abortions (16,450/yr.) happen after the 20th week of pregnancy.
  8. An estimated 43% of all women will have at least 1 abortion by the time they are 45 years old. 47% of all abortions are performed on women who have had at least one previous abortion.

Characteristics of Women Having Abortions4

  • Over half (56%) of all women having abortions between the ages of 15-44 are in their 20’s.
  • Nearly eight in 10 U.S. women obtaining an abortion report a religious affiliation.
    • 43% are Protestant
    • 27% are Catholic
    • 8% are other religions
  • 41% of women having abortions are white, 32% are black, and 20% are Hispanic.

 Characteristics

  • RatesBlack and Hispanic women have higher abortion rates than non-Hispanic white women. Black women’s abortion rates are 49 per 1,000, Hispanic women’s are 33 per 1,000 and non-Hispanic white women’s are 13 per 1,000.
  • According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the most recurrent characteristics of women having abortions over time are non-White, poor and unmarried.

Reasons For Abortion

 3

  • 98% Personal Choice (unwanted or inconvenient)
  • 1.7% Life/Health of Mother or Child
  • .3% Rape/Incest

African American Community 5

  • According to the CDC, each year 616,074 African Americans are born.
  • 458,500 babies will have died from abortion.
  • 284,877 blacks will have died that same year through anything from natural causes to heart disease.
  • There are 743,377 Africans Americans dying yearly. This number is 127,303 more than those that are born.
  • From 1973 to 2004, nearly 30% of the black population were erased through abortion. Out of the average 4,400 babies dying daily that are reported abortions, an estimated 1,300 are African American. They account for 32% of women having abortions yearly, yet make up only 13% of the American population. African American women are 3 times as likely to have an abortion than other women.

 

If those statistics don’t cause you to think and astound you, I don’t know what will. Exodus 21:22,23 says, “If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life.”(KJV) Exodus 20:13 also says, “Thou shalt not kill.”Think about what God has told us through His Word.

Daily, doctors go to work in their clinic and shed innocent blood. Proverbs 6:16 says, “These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.” Deuteronomy 21:7 says, “And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.” Isaiah 1:15 says, “And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.” Isaiah 59:3 says, “For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.”

 

What do the doctors have to say?3

“My heart got callous against the fact that I was a murderer, but that baby lying in a cold bowl educated me as to what abortion really was.”–former abortionist Dr. David Brewer

 ”I want the general public to know what the doctors know- that this is a person, this is a baby. That this is not some kind of blob of tissue.”–former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levantino

 ”I have taken the lives of innocent babies, and I have ripped them from their mother’s wombs with a powerful suction machine”–former abortionist McArthur Hill

 ”Nobody wants to perform abortions after ten weeks, because by then you see the features of the baby, hands, feet. It’s really barbaric.” –abortionist quoted in M.D. Doctors Talk About Themselves by John Pekkanen p 93

 The LORD called me before my birth; from within the womb he called me by name. Isaiah 49:1

 What are you doing to prevent abortion? Are you sitting back in your easy chair watching a football game or filling your mind with garbage from the world today? Get out of your “comfort zone” and show your support for LIFE! Life doesn’t begin at birth but at conception. Open your eyes to what the government is allowing in our country but don’t blame it all on them. You elected them, America. So don’t just sit down and think that nothing can be done about it! You can make a difference in America. As far as I know we are still the land of the free and the home of the brave…and unless you don’t think so then go head, stay on your couch. But I’m standing up! Standing up for what’s right and standing up for God’s Word.

Welcome to America

September 25, 2009

The Land Before Time.

As I sit here in my comfortable chair in front of a computer, I see myself as a typical American. But what is a typical American?  Two hundred thirty-three years ago, a typical American wore tights, powdered wigs, flamboyant clothing, and spoke in an knowledgeable fashion. Now although it may see that our country hasn’t changed much because all of these things have resurfaced to the mainstream, except for the knowledgeable talking. We have actually digressed the the point where typically most people can’t even spell out entire words when texting someone on their cell phones. But that’s not what I’m talking about for the typical American. In the late 18th century, our founding fathers actually had the manhood to stand up for what was right, basing our country (the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in case you had forgotten) on life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and FAITH!

Many politicians completely deny the fact that America was founded on religious freedoms and for years now the government (who wants to control you…bad idea!) has been slowly revoking and destroying the First Amendment which states: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” And what is happening (or has been happening) is that Congress is making laws respecting these things. You may say, “I love my government and they would never do that! How can you think that Congress is changing America?” And to that I say that they have taken away many of our freedoms in times past. To name a few: prayer in public schools has been taken out, having a statute of the 10 Commandments in the courthouse has been voted out, etc. But do you know what has come in? Murder legalized (abortion), homosexuality legalized (gay rights), socialistic take over (health care reform), etc. Our nation has gone from the superpower it once was less than 100 years ago to the shattered remains of a broken window.

Patriotism defined.

What comes to mind when the word “Patriotism” is said? Democrats today slander this word calling it a Republican word used to build up respect for the War in Iraq and other wars we may face. But in my dictionary (and yours too, just check), the word patriotism is defined as “a proud supporter or defender of his or her country and its way of life.” When this word is taken out of our society, what is left? Patriotism entails loyalty, partisanship, devotion, capitalism, fidelity, piety, support, etc. Now I can see why President Obama and his fellow Liberal Democrats would want to rid us of this word. They do not want us to feel devotion, fidelity (faithfulness), or love for our country. They want us to feel like we need them to support us as a nation. But we don’t. America was founded by a group of men to be governed by a group of men. Even France and Great Britain saw that a king wouldn’t work so they set up a system based after our Congress system. But do we need to go as far as getting a king to find out what doesn’t work? If you make the right choices, you never have to learn the hard way. The saying goes “The freeway to destruction is a downhill road, but the pathway to success is an uphill, winding dirt path.” Right now America is on the freway of destruction. Even since liberalism entered the halls of Congress, each decision made has effected the country. Liberals today have no agenda for what is right or wrong, they act as if they don’t even have a conscious. The way most politicians vote is by majority, not by what they believe will be for the good of the country.

 

This might shock you but please read on. Read these quotes and think about America.

  • “The great masses of the people will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.”
  • “There must be no majority decisions, but only responsible persons, and the word ‘council’ must be restored to its original meaning. Surely every man will have advisers by his side, but the decision will be made by one man.”
  • “Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.”
  • “From millions of men . . . one man must step forward who with apodictic force will form granite principles from the wavering idea-world of the broad masses and take up the struggle for their sole correctness, until from the shifting waves of a fre thought-world there will arise a brazen cliff of solid unity in faith and will.” 
  • “Any alliance whose purpose is not the intention to wage war is senseless and useless.”
  • “For there is one thing we must never forget… the majority can never replace the man. And no more than a hundred empty heads make one wise man will an heroic decision arise from a hundred cowards.”

These quotes were all made by Adolf Hitler in his book, Mein Kampf (My Struggle). After making these statements, which do not seem wrong, he turned on his country killing 6 million Jews. This is called The Holocaust.

Divided States of America

“Where is our country headed?” you might ask. Let me try to answer your question through the eyes of our president.

  1. Legal Homosexuality –“I opposed the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996. It should be repealed and I will vote for its repeal on the Senate floor. I will also oppose any proposal to amend the U.S. Constitution to ban gays and lesbians from marrying.”-Barack Obama
  2. Deep Debt (too late) –“I think when you spread the wealth around it’s good for everybody.”-Barack Obama

The term “spread the wealth” is a lie. Imagine a swimming pool. The idea of spreading the wealth would be like taking a bucket of water from the deep end of the pool and dumping it into the shallow end. The only problem is that the water placed into the shallow end will always end up back in the deep end. So the government works. The idea is to raise taxes on the upper class in order that the lower class would be supported to “stimulate” the economy. Once the money gets to the lower class, it will always end up back in the pockets of the wealthy. Thus you see why all of Obama’s stimulus packages didn’t work. The wealthy are still wealthy and the poor are still poor.

  1. Socialism –“If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists – to protect them and to promote their common welfare – all else is lost.”-Barack Obama
  2. Lack of Acknowledgement of God –“One of the great strengths of the United States is… we have a very large Christian population – we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.”-Barack Obama
  3. Acknowledging the Wrong Culture –“The thing about hip-hop today is it’s smart, it’s insightful. The way they can communicate a complex message in a very short space is remarkable.”-Barack Obama
  4. An Islamic Nation –“The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many other Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country – I know, because I am one of them.”-Barack Obama
  5. Lack of Budgeting –“We need earmark reform, and when I’m President, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely.”-Barack Obama

This is a joke because as soon as Barack Obama became president, he shipped out who knows how much money to “stimulate” the economy which only icreased our national and foreign debt.

As you can see, just by our ordained authority (Romans 13) we are speeding on the freeway towards certain destruction. And with an “alliance” with Russia and Iran, we will never see it coming when they decide to blow us to smitherines. Be on the watch for this. Open your eyes.

I end with quotes from the greatest politician to ever live: Winston Churchill.

  1. All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
  2. An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
  3. Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
  4. I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
  5. It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.
  6. Never, never, never give up.
  7. One ought never to turn one’s back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
  8. Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.

Coming Soon

September 23, 2009

I’m in the process of writing my first post entitled “Welcome to America” talking about the true foundation of our country. The purpose of THE CAUSE is to reinstate truth back in America through the Bible and our roots.
