TIME
FOR THE ACLU TO BUTT OUT
By

It is a statistical fact that Americans have been
victimized by a 350% increase in crime (home grown
terrorism) during the past 40-years-with little relief
in sight. Much of that increase can be directly tracked
to an increase in immorality in our nation. Immorality
is not socially redeeming and in most cases it results
in some type of crime or extreme behavior with great
cost to society. Historically immorality has destroyed
great nations. Rome is just one example. When we cut our
way through all the media assigned labels in society
today such as “liberal and conservative”, “Christian
and atheist”, “left and right”, “good and evil”,
“married and live-in”, “same-sex partners” we
find a nation perhaps even the world in a culture war.
America today is in fact in a political-culture war with
the prize being immorality or morality. The immoral
culture would create a utopia of peace without God and
the moral culture would recognize God in all mortal
affairs. That culture war is being vigorously waged in
our homes, our communities, our towns, our states, our
courts and our government with obvious social
destruction.
Under the guise of the great self-anointed guardian of
American civil liberties, the ACLU (American Civil
Liberties Union) has taken the side of immorality in the
culture war. Americans are not stupid! A typical example
was the loud and public applaud when the state of
Massachusetts legislature voted down an amendment that
would have defined marriage as between one man and one
woman. Regarding that vote, Norma Shapiro, legislative
director of the ACLU of Massachusetts said; “The
peoples’ representatives spoke today, the process
worked and the people have been heard as more and more
constituents expressed support for equal treatment of
families.” Those of us who believe that God is our
creator also believe that it was HE that gave the
blueprint for a “family” as being between a man and
a woman. Note the subtle proselyting in the culture war
by the ACLU spokeswoman of what constitutes “families.”
The family is the laboratory of society. What comes out
of that laboratory is exactly what you can expect in
society. Today we have a 52% divorce rate and a growing
percentage of live-ins. Many of those numbers evolve
from a self-serving and selfish culture that desires
instant pleasure. Track the results of these scenarios
and we find millions of kids are the end victims-with
far to many of these misplaced kids gravitating to
gangs. Based upon historical precedent, the ACLU would
champion the individual civil liberties involved in
these situations at the expense and cost of obvious
immorality.
In a day when young people discard newborn babies in
dumpsters, I find it preposterous that this great
self-anointed group of lawyers would question the
teaching of moral principles by a Christian basketball
coach at the University of New Mexico-all under the
guise of separation of church and state that is in fact
a myth in the 1st Amendment of the U.S. constitution.
When a coach would teach a young person to be as good a
human being as well as a good athlete, I will take the
coach’s side in the culture war every time as I
believe most Americans would.
Rather than meddling in a Christian coach’s moral
teachings to athletes at the University of New
Mexico-this group’s time could be much better spent
fighting against the 159,000,000 million crimes
committed against good Americans in the 13-year period
ending in 2002.
America is a great nation because it was established
under God and through his inspiration our founding
fathers drafted the greatest constitution and amendments
in all of world history. That document is unequaled in
liberties and freedoms. In all of man’s mortal
weaknesses and flaws there is in fact a system in place
as decreed in the constitution to protect our liberties
and freedoms.
Many of those early Americans and drafters of the
constitution acknowledged God in their important work as
the source of these liberties and freedoms and so
expressed it in the Declaration Of Independence in 1776.
America will remain a great nation as long as it
recognizes God as the giver of all of our liberties and
freedoms and the responsibilities that go with those
liberties. When any group comes along under the guise of
protecting our God given rights, liberties and freedoms
and wants to remove God from the picture beware of that
group. Historically the ACLU would remove God from our
teachings, from our Government, from our pledge of
allegiance, from many of our social interactions with
each other and other vital areas of our society
according to their own invented perception. Time for the
ACLU to butt out!
