This is the nonsense that drives me mad. (link to story)
It should have been obvious that behaviour like this would not be tolerated. But the LEFT has so much momentum in their anti-Christian agenda that these kids would feel emboldened to bring the school to court because they broke the rules!

To Kill or Not to Kill
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/International/story?id=6716958&page=1.
Should we have been surprised? It is interesting to note the nature of this policy:
Now, I am not saying Choosing Life is a Right vs Left thing, it is a Right vs Wrong thing! All the Christians who voted for this man will be judged by God. They did not care that this was his record because they were so eager to see change and history made.
But again, we are paying international groups monies that need to focus on America. Interesting! That was an amazing way of "CHANGE"! We shouldn't spend one cent to kill terrorists, but we can spend unlimited dollars to kill babies! I have not agreed with all the processes of the Iraqi war, and it is sad that over 4200 troops have lost their lives since 2003. Yet, over 75 million children have lost their lives by the vehicle of abortion. Even a 2nd grader can see the obvious reality of those numbers. The real "CHANGE" that would have been nice, would be that Obama left the policy intact.
May God have mercy on his soul.

Jimmy Carter Junior?
Why so silent on the Israel/Hamas conflict Mr. Man from "The Office of the President Elect"? He has a comment on everything else but the one thing that will truly show his colors.
This man is anti-Israel and we are going to see our second anti-Israel president. Do not be surprised if he does not pick Jimmy Carter as some kind of liason for the pressure he will apply to Israel to allow her neighbors to keep screwing her over.
I really hope I am wrong on this one.
The American Drum
Go East, young man? Californians look for the exit.
I saw this article and it was amazed to see that the TOP TWO (2) progressive states of the country are not so ideal to live in any longer. Very sad (especially considering that one was were I was raised and still considered my home). But. what was the key to their downfalls? How could such prominent states be so unappealing? How could the two (2) states that were considered the arenas of change not appeal to a culture trying to climb out of the arcane ways of doing things?
"years of rising taxes, dead-end schools, unchecked illegal immigration and clogged traffic have robbed the Golden State of its allure"
Interesting.
This is what the majority of American people selected as the vehicle for change.
This will be the drum roll for all the "progressive states" that believed the traditional ways did not work anymore. We've long left behind the mantra of "God, country, and family." We have abandoned the moral principles that made this country a great economic power in the world. Why? Why? Why?
"Idolatry leads to immorality!"
When we idolize things and people, we dethrone God. And when a nation dethrones God, their demise is soon to come. Every great nation's demise can found in their ability to forsake their Creator by worshipping themselves and an ideology that is so self-absorbed, there is no room for God and anything good.
So, should this news be shocking? No, not really. Be prepared, the drummer is not done playing his beat.

On the Twelfth Day of Christmas
The "twelve drummers drumming" were the twelve points of belief expressed in the Apostles' Creed: belief in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, that Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary, made man, crucified, died and arose on the third day, that he sits at the right hand of the father and will come again, the resurrection of the dead and life everlasting.*
That's the basics of the faith. The fact that it is God alone who makes all of this possible. Any alteration of these tenets is a different gospel and not a gospel at all. God did all the work and all we have to do is accept that fact because we realize how depraved we are and incapable of fixing our lives w/o the atoning work of Jesus on the cross.
I pray that today and everyday forward, the Lord will help every person comes to a saving knowledge and saving relationship with Jesus Christ.
God bless you all

On the Eleventh Day of Christmas
The "eleven pipers piping" refers to the eleven faithful apostles.*
While they may have not had the best testimony before the Cross, I'd take being on of the eleven disciples who did not betray Christ. Sometimes we can let our circumstances affect our faith, but what is most important is holding onto Christ when it even seems illogical. However, we are in a day and time when Christians will really be tested to see if their trust is in Christ. With a horrible economy and anti-Christian establishments on the rise, will you be a Judas, or one of the faithful eleven?
I pray that today, the Lord will help every person that calls Jesus Christ as their Saviour will grow deeper in their faith and not deny Christ when the inevitable comes.
God bless you all

On the Tenth Day of Christmas
The "ten lords a-leaping" represents the Ten Commandments.*
What is this country going to become on the day the last Ten Commandments is removed from a government building? Honestly, they have been removed from the heart of America a long time ago. We should not be surprised as crime rises. It will take a miracle to restore this country back to where they need to be because a country without the Ten Commandments is a dictatorship and nightmare.
I pray that today, the Lord will help every person see that Ten Commandments are not a hindrance to life but a help that point towards the hope of Jesus Christ.
God bless you all

On the Ninth Day of Christmas
The "nine ladies dancing" were the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit found in Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.*
Sometimes these of been called the fruits, but it should be called fruit (singular). The world offers none of these, no matter how much money you have. Especially in this day and age, the only way to have true love, joy and peace is to have Christ as your Saviour.
I pray that today, the Lord will help every person seek Jesus Christ for true love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
God bless you all

On the Eighth Day of Christmas
The "eight maids a milking" reminded children of the eight beatitudes listed in the Sermon on the Mount.*
The awesome thing about these beatitudes is that it gives us the correct perspective any person who claims they're following after God should have. Often we (author included) tend to redefine what would be considered acceptable behaviour before God. We have a pseudo form of compassion and dupe ourselves into believing that we have pure motives in our actions. Truth be told, we're devilishly selfish in our intentions. However, these verses in the Sermon on the Mount crucify the icon of self and supplant it with the Presence, Power and Perfection of Christ. Humbling ourselves to live as He calls us will yield a life that is fruitful and appealing to anyone around us.
I pray that today, the Lord will help every person in this new year to have the Kingdom perspective shown in these verses and to follow after the Way, Truth, and life: Jesus Christ.
God bless you all
