I am a creationist by belief. I believe in God, and so it is that the entire matter of where we came from emanates only from my belief in God - the being so much greater than myself, that all other consideration about where He or we came from becomes irrelevant to a discussion.
The theory of evolution however interests me - not because of the excuse to try to explain away God, but for what is evident in how things do naturally evolve with time in so many aspects of the world. Trends in everything are the basis for assumptions about the future. If 1 and 2 and 3 have happened, we can naturally assume 4 will be next. This is probably one of the top few laws of nature, as the only thing that disturbs a natural trend is an interference.
Whether an interference is seen as natural or unnatural is both a matter of perception and cause. If man caused the interference it is definitely seen as unnatural, and if man did not cause it but sees the cause as unnatural, this perception may have validity as well.
In either case, the trends of man to abandon God as times are comfortable appear to be natural. The entire Old Testament is made up of the stories of man naturally abandoning God, and God either using nature or the supernatural to intervene in the lives of the people of Israel to bring them back to Him.
America is the Israel of my existence in this age - the place I observe the hand of God being lifted from a country and then intervening in relatively small ways through the lives of people and families. But the trend of the country's Christian spiritual state is depressing to people like me. And so it is that I - and so many others - pray that God will supernaturally intervene and turn the hearts of the people toward Him like He did for the nation of Israel so many times.
The financial meltdown of 2008 was personal for me, and a turning point in my commitment, and I hope is having a greater and similar effect on the rest of America, but it will not be a surprise to me that America needs many more convulsions to get its head out of the sand. Like Pharoah refusing to listen as God served up plagues upon Egypt in the time of Moses, the Kings of America are stubborn and ignorant, and full of their own pride. Until the first sons must die, many will never see enough interference to alter their trend away from God.
Likewise, the American Book of Law has allowed a serious trend to develop that should give every thinking American pause - the separation of the Courts from the law they are 'sworn' to uphold. "Above the law" is now the mindset of many Judges in America. A "Law Unto Myself" is the mindset of even more. They are no longer American judges - they are their own judges - operating 'in lieu of law'.
Traditionally, the book of law was perceived by judges as the ultimate interpretation of the constitution's mandates - a noble cause, building on a noble document, that was seen predominantly as successful, and therefore worthy of respect.
In reality, the law has always had it's flaws and weaknesses - its injustices, and inconsistencies. But judges by education and respect for the law were adherents of the law, honored the intent of the law, and served to help build the book of law by filling in the gaps between.
And then the world changed. Media developed from a local newspaper to a national movie screen and a home information center, and the truth of the laws weaknesses were revealed and focused on. The nobility of the law was forsaken, and the respect for the law abandoned.
And no longer was the role of protector of the law perceived by the public as a noble job. And the ones who had this special job lost respect for what it is they had chosen to do.
But how should one react when the foundation of your chosen and invested profession crumbles? To quit? No. To redefine the foundation? Perhaps. To make it better? Definitely.
And so it is that the role of the judge is being redefined away from the Book of Law into the role of a new Lawmaker 'in lieu of law'.
But shouldn't this be the role of the elected lawmakers? The politicians? Yes - according to the Book of Law - but it just won't work says the judge to himself. And so it is that they have usurped the role of congress, and began to ADD law. The net result however is confusion and chaos.
This is the wrong role of judges and courts. But who can challenge this breach? There are but two possibilities beyond the Supreme Court's reach.
The first is the combined power of the full congressional Legislative Branch, with the solid support of the Executive Branch - the President and his White House.
If this fails, the only other possibility is to appeal to the Highest Authority in the land, the mind of the sheeple - the Main Stream Media. Only these two possibilities could make an impact on reigning in the minds and actions of arrogant judges that are determined to go their own way.
But has our America really the will to resolve this problem? Hell no! Most of us America doesn't even realize there is a problem.
So with that I will return you to the game - "with players on first and third and two outs......"
Good luck neighbors!

Cap And Trade - They're Coming To Get You Haha, Hoho, Hehe!!!!
Taxed for breathing? That might be a little extreme... But every time you breathe, fart, sneeze, or emit anything else (generally all day every day) our new government and its environmentalist agenda are about the restricting of your ability to emit anything, and charging you a tax for emitting too much.
It's called Cap And Trade, and almost everyone I know, knows almost nothing about it. So I did a little research (which doesn't take much these days - what with Google and all). You can read plenty about it at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cap-and-trade or see it defined briefly here: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&defl=en&q=define:Cap-and-trade&ei=1-jRSdCXMYeCyQWF3pDEBQ&sa=X&oi=glossary_definition&ct=title which in about five minutes will explain it fully.
The advocates will tell you its all about preserving the environment for our children's future. Others will tell you its about harnessing the earnings of industry worldwide, controlling trade from polluting countries like China, and justifying new levels of taxation against their trade. Opponents - like me - will tell you that it is a violation once again of freedoms, through government intervention into everything you and I have and are, and the world's largest tax grab propagated by the new communists of the Kyoto Accord, and the Al Gore-ians.
Why bother dealing with poverty or perversion; by controlling every major industry and government on earth through oppresive rules and limits on output, and taxing excesses, we can fund all government agendas, and cap personal, corporate and religious expression - without the freedom to trade for rights. And the day you support that, we might as well tie each other up and jump off the bridge. All freedom is lost.
There does not appear to be anything more ripe for government fraud, corruption and mismanagement. As if traffic policing isn't out of control, wait till the sniff police show up to let you know that you're pants are 'speeding', and ticket you for overpolluting the environment.
The sniff police will be coming to every emission orifice in the world, with their ticket book in hand, ready to tax excess emission, and force you to purchase the right to fart excessively. Al Gore is rich, so he can simply buy the credits (as traded in a 'Cap And Trade' market) to use your lazy neighbors emission allowance so Al can fly his fuel gulping corporate jet, and even leave his lights on throughout 'Earth Day' - all while claiming to be the world's number one environmentalist! Oh. and of course the ruling liberal classes can collect yours, and your employers taxes and spend those for their own emission rights as well.....
Silly you say? Scary says I. Not because I am opposed to a clean environment - I am all for a clean environment. I am the first to clear the room when you fart. And I am the first to appreciate a green leaf over a brown leaf - especially in my salad. Besides the brown ones usually mean an afternoon of raking in the yard to clean them up - screwing up another chunk of my freedom...
What I am really for is less government involvement - because 'government anything' is overreaching, underskilled, bureaucratic, mismanagement done by the most cumbersome, expensive, and chaotic monopoly known to humanity. (ie Get the fat man off the little girl!)
If there is ever to be retained any hope of indivdual rights or freedoms, you had best learn to oppose every type of government involvement in any place you live. And that means opposing Cap And Trade.
From this day forward, I will the dub Cap And Trade: "The Fart Tax".

Media Are Maggots, Lawyers Are Leeches, & Politicians Are Puppets - Understanding How America Runs
Now if the people would stop being so pathetic... WAKE UP AMERICA!
This country was yours, and you did have Freedom. Not worth having mind you if you're just going to sit on the riverbank staring at the world flowing by, and entertain yourself with new color combinations in Washington, answer pollsters that spin the data, and let the maggots and the leeches tell the elected puppets what to do next. In the immortal words of Jack Nicholson, apparently "you can't handle the truth!!" Are you fighting back, or just going with the flow? Are you even aware of what the problems are or do you even care? If you aren't prepared to be knowledgeable about the issues, who are you voting for? Should you be voting at all?? The civic duty isn't to vote. The civic duty is to be knowledgeable about the issues, learn about the people who are willing to fight for your position, and then vote knowledgeably. Do not vote ignorantly.
Then there is the leadership thing. And I don't just mean leadership skills. I mean the wisdom and discernment to know what is right - based on a solid moral foundation, the conviction and good sense to have weighed it against all options enough to believe it, and then the cohoneys to demand it.
What good are skills like the ability to collect and manage data, analyze it and understand it, along with the good looks to be a maggot media magnet, and then develop the influence to do something with it - only to become Bawney Fwank, Chuckin' Charlie Rangel, Corrupt Chris Dodd, Creepy Chris Cox, Franklin 'Ripoff' Raines, or Harry Weed, Nasty Belowsi, Tim 'Charlie Chaplin' Geithner (who ought be wearing a yellow top hat) or 'Curious George' Obama.
That isn't leadership except the blind leading the blind - enjoying the Pied Pipers music lead as were lead into the bottom of the outhouse.
America deserves the politician puppets it has today. Public education is turning out idiots and calling them 'educated', and we are electing them. Main stream media manufactures Pied Piper agendas while their producers pick priorities from the psychedelic pansy patches of their drug infested minds, and the masses get in the line behind them.
In the wake of the main stream media's maggotry, we've increasingly abandoned - for more than two generations - justice, morality, virtue, caring for people, and everything else that made America great less than a century ago. Today we are on the rapid path to Britain's bottom - only faster, and with a louder swan song.
Father Jenkins at Notre Dame University has abandoned conviction, morality, and message to pull the puppet string once in fear of the media maggots and lawyer leeches. This is America's new leadership of the institutions of highest learning - developing tomorrows leaders. But can you really blame a University for sucking at the hind tit of political puppetry when these buffoons control their budgets, their boards, and the baseless banality of their new benevolence? After all what is a catholic University "leader" to do??? I would suggest you grow some brains, some beautiful benefactors, some brilliance and bravado, and then some basic balls. Take a stand for something worthwhile for once in your life - while the media maggots are shining their lights, and the message can be really heard! Are you really a Catholic, and do you really care about LIFE?
If you really care about America, it is time to push the rider off the horse, and take the reins folks. Read Majority Rules at http://www.atlan.com/, and digest the potential to truly shift the power back to the people. Nothing could be more radically correct, except putting God first again!
