Tebow: “Get Bowed” With Him America!

 

The constant criticism of football player Tim Tebow engaging in a short prayer before games is really beginning to brew a hellish anger in me. I was going to ask the rhetorical question, “what’s the big deal about a man praying”, but on second thought, the question is not so rhetorical after all. The big deal goes beyond Tebow and it is just another example of the Secularists trying to erode Christianity wherever it is displayed. In other words, those that follow the religion of Secular Humanism are unwavering in their efforts to shatter the very foundation on which this nation was founded: Christianity. Connect the dots, and the picture will be clear!

The Secularists yelp and bark about Tebow incessantly, saying that he should keep his faith to himself. Really? Ok… what about the rappers who thank God for winning awards? Should they keep that to themselves? The answer to secularists is no. Would you like to know why? It’s because most of them don’t really mean it. They know it’s not sincere coming from that crowd, so there is no harm done. This crowd will not go out and exalt God in there everyday lives. They are simply grandstanding to give the  impression of a person of faith. Look at many of their lives…. does it reflect a faith driven person?

To the keen eye, it is obvious that some of these entertainer’s words and actions do not match. Many of them have arrest records longer than their arms and legs combined. They have multiple kids out of wedlock and take pride in portraying a lifestyle that revolves around money and whores, and whores and money.  They live secular lifestyles so, this crowd actually works towards destroying Christianity, and that keeps them  safe from criticism.

How about Muslims who wear the hijab, or fall down like drunks praying to Allah every four hours (or however often they pray)?  If they are wearing the hijab in public or are being allowed to pray in the work place, or any other public place, are they keeping their religion to themselves? What about the atheists who want every vestige of Christianity removed from wherever they can have it removed? Are they keeping their beliefs to themselves? No… they are not, but different rules apply to the liberal faction.

Have you noticed that you never see  Secularists attack Hindu, Buddhism, Scientology or any other “religion”? Only Christianity! I guess that’s the price to pay for being the real deal.

When Muslims are made to remove hijabs and burkas in public because wearing them will betray their religious preference, then come and talk to me about Tebow praying before a game. And when atheists are not allowed to publicly profess that there is no God, we can have this chat again!

Secularists should really adapt rules to the game that apply to everyone “fairly” (a favorite word for the liberal minded folk). As it stands, Liberals use a set of rules that oscillate. This way they can constantly change their stance to defend a liberal offending party or situation, or degrade if conservative. In other words, Liberals (same as Secularists for the intellectually challenged- all part of the Democrat Party) are some of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. Some even pretend to believe in God, but their lifestyles and actions paint a very different picture- like many of those rappers and other performers who thank God for winning an award, but then go out and get wasted drunk; rape or shoot someone, or break the law in one way or another.

To my knowledge, Tebow is true to his faith. And that just chaps some liberal hides! You see, he CAN bring others to Christianity! This is why he is so targeted! He is counterproductive to the secular movement.

Instead of beating this man down for being a Christian in a Christian nation, there should be knees bowed right along with his. I’m not saying to bow and pray for a football game… just bow and pray!

I’m not a sports fan at all, but I might have to find out which team Tebow plays for so I can watch, bow and pray with him. I encourage every Christian to do the same. Support your brother in Christ…defend your faith… “get bowed”.

What Christmas is Not


Many probably wont see this post until after Christmas, but that’s fine. Hopefully it will give you something to think about moving forward.  What does Christmas mean to you these days?  I’m not looking for your programmed answer, I’m looking for the answer that comes from your spirit… your true answer. I’m not looking for the obvious answer. Put some thought into answering the question. What do you do the other 364 days to bring your answer to life?  Are you teaching the true meaning of Christmas to your children and grandchildren? If not, you are not living the true meaning of Christmas .

I can tell you what Christmas IS NOT.  It isn’t a happy holiday or a season to be greeted. It isn’t a chance to get gifts or to go shopping to catch sales. And while festive decorations are nice to look at and makes the heart happy (at least it does that for me) decorated trees and fancy lights do not define Christmas.

Christmas IS NOT an excuse to gorge ourselves with stuffing, ham, cakes, pies, candies, cookies, eggnog and all of those other goodies that are oh so very good…  yum!  It’s NOT an excuse for parties or get-togethers to partake in adult beverages or to show off the brand new outfit bought just for the occasion.


What about Santa Claus? Nope, Christmas IS NOT about Santa Clause, Rudolph or the other reindeer. And it’s not about elves making toys, or talking snowmen. These things are nice fantasies for children if you so choose to teach it to them, but these things should only be taught if teaching the true meaning of Christmas supersedes.

I wonder how many families have watched stories about the birth of Christ. I wonder if Christ was discussed everyday, as we frenzied our way to December 25th. I wonder how many minutes families spent praying together during this “season”.  Was there more talk of gift giving, Santa and baking in your home than about Christ?  If so, then that’s the legacy you are building for your children. 

I’m not trying to be holier than thou. I have spent time reflecting on my own actions and what I can do differently to carry the spirit of Christmas in my heart everyday of my life. After all, we are celebrating the birth of Christ today; the son that God sacrificed for our salvation because we are so weakened by our wicked hearts.

Christmas is  faith. It is a lifestyle. It spawns a desire to live a life that is worthy of the gift of salvation.  It is your generous spirit. Christmas is to be celebrated every day of your life because it represents truth, love, hope, sacrifice and the gift of eternal life. Christmas is the day we set aside to celebrate the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ, so why not celebrate his existence everyday… in small ways?  Anywho, that’s my goal. I can always do better…. always! 

Happy Birthday, Jesus….. and  Merry Christmas to everyone, all year long!

Blacks: The Most Gullible Folks on the Planet


I’m greatly exasperated  when I hear people say that Christianity was forced on our ancestors (slaves). This drivel comes from those liberal Blacks who are usually agnostic, atheist or Muslim.  It is an  illogical excuse  that some Blacks give to apparently excuse away their non-belief. They also claim that Christianity is the “White Mans” religion.  Well… I have a couple of problems with their opinions… 1. FAITH is and always has been a choice, and…  2.  Christianity existed on the continent of Africa long before the United States was even created.  I wonder if  people who make such claims, at a minimum, know how to Google?  Truth is FREE! 

Faith can not be forced. One can pretend to believe in God to avoid persecution, but having faith is a choice that often comes from intense deliberation.   Many slaves and free Blacks willingly EMBRACED Christianity. If the objectors would actually take the time to study Blacks in early American history, they would find that most were rabidly Christian… by choice.

I’m not sure if people just don’t know how long Christianity has been around and on which continent it started, or perhaps  they just tend to ignore historical facts because truth is too inconvenient for their lies.  Christianity has been present in Africa (northern region originally) since the 1st century when Mark the Evangelist started the Orthodox Church of Alexandria, in Egypt,  around year 43.  This is why  some of the oldest Christian churches in the world can be found in Africa.

Christianity was dominant in Northern Africa and spreading until the 6th or 7th centuries. During this time, the Islamic Caliphate ended Christianity for several centuries.  Once Islamic rule took hold,  the only Christians remaining were those in the Coptic Christian Church in Egypt and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Funny how the objectors always complain that Christians “force” their religion on others, but they never speak of Islamic invasions or their rule by force.

Black people foolishly allow liberals to rob them of their history. The fact of the matter is, Liberals are trying to erode away Christianity in our nation. They will use Black atheists and perhaps Black Muslims by making them “community leaders” to help lead those who are weak and ill informed away from Christianity by challenging the “blackness” of it. We know that Black folk are always “down for the blackness” and will follow their leaders to the abyss of hell.  Plus, liberals have the benefit of a 70% illegitimacy rate amongst Blacks, (that they helped to create) and this breakdown of the family yields dysfunctional people who are malleable….  the exact type that Liberals were aiming for. 
 
Personally, I don’t care if one chooses to be an atheist… no skin off my back and more room in heaven for me. After all, God does give us free will.  What I do care about is the concerted effort that Liberals are making to turn this country into an immoral, unpatriotic, illegitimate, socialistic nation that’s void of Christianity (our founding principles).  Why?  Because only in this type of environment will Liberals ever have the unchallenged, perpetual power they crave;  the wealth they crave and governance over the masses (us) who will be diminished into peasantry and government dependency.  
For the trillionth time…. connect the dots… pay attention and read patterns.  Think I’m crazy?  Ok..review the following quote….
“America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life.  If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within.”  Joseph Stalin (Mr. Communist himself)
.… now ask yourself,  which of these three things (morality, patriotism, spiritual life) is not under attack by liberals today?   Ummm hmmm!

If any Black person is dumb enough to fall for the “Christianity is the White man’s religion” bulldoodie, or that slaves were forced into Christianity,  or the new Black atheist movement simply because it’s part of the liberal agenda,  then they deserve to rot in hell!  I’m so tired of this kind of stupidity.  Sorry… my “tolerance” for it is very low. 

Incidentally, Christianity has one of the largest followings in many African countries today.   So, who’s forcing Christianity on them now?

Santa and Poinsettias… Offensive? So NOT!

 

Is there even room left on the offensive list for poinsettias? Everything is put there nowadays. Even jolly old St. Nick has been tagged with the big O. Every time I turn around these days, some idiot somewhere is unreasonably relegating something to the offensive list. In this case, the idiocy is stemming from officials at an elementary school in Stockton, California. They have purportedly decided that Santa and poinsettias would create a pervasive theme favoring one religion over another. I always wonder where the outrage from parents is when I hear about such senselessness. All parents who celebrate Christmas should pick a day to OCCUPY that school! This is political correctness run on steroids.


I’ll tell you what is truly offensive… attempting to take away my voice because you don’t agree with it. It’s offensive to remove crosses and other Christian icons because it might offend someone of another faith or religion. It’s offensive to erode American traditions because people who came here from other countries might be offended. I’m more than offended! I’m disgusted and outraged at those who grant themselves the power to determine what is offensive or not for ALL of us! This kind of Liberal BS is destroying this country fiber by fiber! The uninformed and the clueless do not realize that such actions slowly but surely erodes away our freedoms. Taking from one to give to another under any circumstance is always a failure!


When others immigrate to the USA, they should be told that our culture and traditions are already in place and that we do not re-arrange our way of life to appease others. Newcomers and those choosing to subscribe to other religious beliefs should know from jump street that we are a Judeo-Christian nation based upon the principles of our founding. While Santa and poinsettias are not biblical, they are festive symbols associated with our celebration of the birth of Christ. They are considered traditional symbols of the Christmas season. Will schools soon teach kids that there is no Santa? Don’t laugh… schools are already subverting Christianity… kids can’t say God in schools anymore, remember?!


Where does this stop? The fact of the matter is it won’t stop because too many people are oblivious. Declaring Santa and poinsettias as offensive is just another part to the Left’s plot to secularize and socialize this country. I don’t know what it will take to awake the sleepers. Moreover, I’m totally offended when they sleep walk their behinds into a voting booth!

I deem the officials in Stockton to be Scrooges! Take that! And, if this blog happens to offend you, kiss my poinsettia!
