(1) This is going to be a harder pill to swallow for my crowd, but let the chips fall where they may. “Character Matters” Last night showed us that voters are so desperate about the economy that they are willing to accept godless socialists, Islamists, and communists to meet an immediate need. We need to lead the way. I’m all for cutting taxes and building the economy so people can choose where to spend their money. All government purchases are third party purchases, and nothing the government does is ever efficient. Leave more money in my pocket rather than pickpocketing someone else to put it in mine. There is nothing free in life. You can only make something more affordable. The issue is more than the economy. It’s who is selling the story. Frauds like El Sayed and Talarico will do nothing but advance their own agenda. The oozing arrogance from El Sayed is what the people wanted. It’s what many worshipped in Trump. When will we learn that God resists the proud? Let’s stop the vulgarity laced personality rants and speak truth in love. While Trump’s character, I believe, has been made out to be worse than it is, we still didn’t need to say idiotic things like he is like King David or that, as long as he’s not a pastor, anything in his life is fair play. So pastors are the only ones who should have a moral standard? Taking God’s name in vain should matter. Cussing and calling out body parts like a pervert publicly matters. Profanity laced rants against foes is embarrassing to read. If I can’t watch a rally with my children without them being corrupted, something is wrong. Yet we waited for hours and sat for hours while it happened in front of us. We said we liked it because he spoke like a real person. So did Nebuchadnezzar, and he ended up eating grass like a human lawnmower. We must return to statesmanship and integrity in public officials. They should be held to a higher standard. There’s a way to bluntly and directly push back at the media and evildoers without resorting to petulance and childish performances. Like it, lump it, or take it across the street and dump it, but it’s true. The party that stands for life should speak life. The party that defends traditional marriage should stay faithful in theirs. It’s common sense. This is spiritual deception on both fronts. The reality is if the GOP won again there would have been riots, burning, and attacks. There is none of that. One side still has the moral standing. The devil has made leaders like Mamdami look like the good guy when he’s for butchering babies in the womb. El Sayed looks like a well educated doctor with good intentions when his snide, secretive side is nothing more than Islamic Nationalism. Everything he has done is simply to advance himself. Look at Trump. Be consistent. We trumpet Christian Nationalism. Baptists lived and died for the freedom of religion, Christian or otherwise. Government should respect no establishment of religion. That distinction protects us from Islamization. Your freedom ends at the tip of my nose and, in the case of Islam, at my eardrum. I don’t want streets blocked with worshipers facing Mecca or the demonically haunting call to prayer forced upon me. There’s a balance to find in consistent faith and practice, not in faked or forced faith and practice. Our founders knew what they were doing. Christian Nationalists don’t. We’re ushering in a culture that will have the government paying for mosques and Islamic schools to operate. Do we really want that? 1.) Having Paula White as the national faith adviser was a mistake. She’s an immoral fraudster. 2.) Covering up any GOP sins is hypocrisy. They all get divorced, sleep around, and have gay staffers. It’s true, and those who have been involved know it. 3.) Keep the separation of church and state in the sense that faith should be free and persuasive. That doesn’t mean excluding God and the Bible. The freedom of speech and religion protects that right.
