God Bless America ... and those destroying it by Adrian CalhounAs a child I was taught, God, duty, country, in that order.
These days we have cross cultures, creating aliens in their own homeland. We have shirked our duties, letting irresponsibility run rampant among spoiled brats.
Most distressing, is the push to abandon God. Separation of church and state, has created a power struggle greater than any one person, or those fighting for or against the cause.
We have banned prayer, and reading the bible, in or at school and school activities.
Now at alarming rates, our children are using drugs, getting pregnant younger and younger, failing or dropping out, becoming depressed, killing themselves, and each other.
Where there is no God, only chaos and evil reign. A nation not under God, is the devil's playground. Our children and grandchildren, the victims.
I pray for us all ! 06/30/2002 Posted on 06/30/2002 Copyright © 2024 Adrian Calhoun
