Subject: Cristians are a no show in Culture War |
Bible Note: SirPent - i know that you represent a younger generation and you have us old fogies to blame for letting the horse out of the barn . . . but where were the Christians when Roe v Wade was passed? Where were the Chrsitians when prayer was banned from the schools? And where where the Christians when evolution only was allowed to be taught? And where where the Chrisitians when the Ten Commandments were removed from our schools and public places? Where are the Christians now in the face of having "In God We Trust" removed from our currency? And where are the Christians when issues involving the sanctity of human life are at stake - "mercy" killing of the elderly, those with birth defects and the infirmed comes to mind . . .stem cell harvesting, cloning, et al And WHERE pray tell were the Christians when the US Postal Service issued the EID stamp in it's holiday collection? (from snopes2.com) Dear Fellow Patriotic Americans, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of PanAm Flight 103, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the military Barracks in Saudi Arabia, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the American Embassies in Africa, REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the USS COLE. REMEMBER the MUSLIM attack on the World Trade Center on 9/11/01. REMEMBER all the AMERICAN lives that were lost in those vicious MUSLIM attacks. Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the EID MUSLIM holiday season with a commemorative first class holiday postage stamp. . . To use this stamp would be a slap in the face to all those AMERICANS who died at the hands of those whom this stamp honors. So SirPent, I stand guilty as charged. I was hiding out in my safe Christian ghetto while all these decisions took place that have virtually eliminated the possibility of our culture returning to one that reflects and honors our Lord and Creator...
