With the United States trying to do away with the death penalty of today's criminals, I find it hard to believe that we as a society would spare the lives of today's murderers when our savior Jesus Christ was sentenced to a horrible death as an innocent person. He died for all of us yet we want to remove religion from our schools, money, and workplace. America has become a joke and I personally do not believe that we live in the land of the free and the home of the brave anymore. We no longer stand for the rights given to us by our forefathers and we are slowly losing them ALL! Its only a matter of time until we are a 3rd world country living under a totalitarian dictatorship!
I am grateful that I live in the U.S. and I always will be.....but this is how I see it! Maybe I feel this way because I love Jesus and I have worked as a Correctional Officer and know what goes on within prison walls. I sometime wonder what our forefathers would think if they could see what the U.S.A. has become.
To all who are serving or have served in the armed forces, corrections or law enforcement, God Bless you and be safe!

Amen! This country is definitely not the one you read about in the history books......George Washington would roll over in his grave if he could see the way we have turned. The new abbreviation is The USSA (United Socialist States of America). The prophecies in Revelation are all starting to come true, the beginning of the end is upon us as we speak. Won't be long before all christians will be labeled as terrorists. Thank you, Jesus, I won't be here to see it!! Matthew 24:43-44 (NIV) But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

In the modern governments attempt to separate church & state they have perverted the ideals which this country was founded on. The most important one is The Lord and Christianity.
Everything Christian is being subdued. Let us all go out of our way to accept the Muslim faith and do our best to understand that the Muslim terrorists are simply misguided when they want to destroy us, our families, our country and our religious beliefs.
The term "Merry Christmas" is subjected to judicial review because a faction of the population, for whatever reason, finds it offensive. But the holidays and customs of other non-Christian religions are promoted and expected to be accepted by the Christian majority.
One of the founding beliefs was that every American has the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I, as an American, have the right to my own beliefs, my own values and opinions. What I do not have is the right to attempt to force my beliefs, values or opinions upon anyone who happens to disagree with them. That is why, in this great country, we hold elections to choose our leaders, to choose which laws we agree or disagree with and to choose the direction of this land.
I did not and still do not agree with the "war" in Iraq. That piece of sand is not worthy of the American blood being spilled there. But I would do my duty and serve there if called. I do not have to agree with every action of my government to be a Loyal American.
I am very proud to be an American just as I was proud to serve my country in uniform. Just as many of my ancestors served this country. But, I have lost confidence in my government and their foreign and domestic policies. I no longer believe that the members of this government serve me and the other citizens of this country. Unfortunately I foresee a time when instead of listening to my opinion, the government will simply tell me what my opinion is.
