DO WE DEPEND UPON GOD'S HELP TOO MUCH?

Many times, at home and in foreign lands, I have had conversations with People from all walks of Life. They have been Good people and Not-So-Good people who have a firm opinion on Who they are and What they believe and Stand-for!

On the subjects of World Poverty, the Distribution of Wealth, and the General State of the Human Family, there is very little insight expressed. Such discussions always end by someone who says: " God understands these things better than we do. He will deal with these matters in His Own Good Time!"

To the relief of most everyone sitting at the table, this sign-off that abandon's the discussion and hands the issue back to an invisible super-natural Almighty Power, seems to leave everyone feeling fulfilled and contented.  Except for one of us! Me! The discussion ends with not one good idea advanced that anyone could take seriously and act on! Why?

Have you not observed that God stopped performing miracles many centuries ago? Have you not wondered why the Human Family is plagued by serious dilemmas which they have repeatedly refused to address? Problems that are solved leave politicians with nothing to embrace for the purpose of being elected!

To the ordinary Man, Woman or Child, the solving of problems and the optimization of dilemmas within the Human Race and Man's dealing with Nature's awesome power, never seems to realize how God ended his personal concerns for this marvelous Planet. In place of his Miracles, he had created a creature with an unusual capability: the Human Brain which can be developed to contemplate, create Powerful Ideas and apply Technologies to produce the solutions needed to make a More Perfect, a Fairer World!

Unfortunately, in spite of great achievements that began soon after the the discovery of the Great Land Mass known today as the Western Hemisphere and the arrival of the Printing Press, We -- You and many of Us -- refuse to take up the problems and dilemmas whose burdens have become virtually unbearable today! Yes, I still hear my friends and associates excuse themselves from any accountability to establish a set of Mission Statements  that must be addressed each year by those who will assume the responsibility to perform such a CONDITIONS STATEMENT.

When God created a Thinking Creature called MAN, he did so consciously and specifically to put this world into Our hands! It is rightly called a Stewardship: the responsibility as a caretaker of this Planet and its inhabitants.

Today, more than ever before, partisan groups called political parties and ideologues have assembled what we call Governments, and by the middle of the 20th Century we were convinced by greedy, power-hungry politicians that it: Government -- NOT GOD -- should and would take care of everything for us! Obviously, that meant that they were an indispensible part of that Trust -- called "Job Security"!

By the time the first Baby Boomer President (i.e. Bill Clinton) had completed his two terms, more than half of our legal Citizens believed that they should be "taken-care-of" by a benevolent Government who believed that the Haves must care for the Have-Nots in our Society. Another group of non-citizens -- undocumented illegals have been brought into the USA by a crafty Enemy! Mysteriously, this seventy year violation of our borders has been permitted by all three branches of Our Federal Government!

Now, as we move closer and closer to outright, devastating bankruptcy and riots in our streets, the same people who left these matters to God, now leave them to an all-knowing, all-powerful Force called Government  that is wholly incompetent because our Leaders have forgotten the Great Imperative that is the key to whether we will SURVIVE as a Nation!

When will we see the Force that is the only Power that can bring us back to our senses? What is the name of that FORCE? Look in the mirror and it will stare back at YOU, my friends! How do you prepare to be that FORCE?

LEARN SOMETHING THAT WILL MAKE YOU A VALUABLE, EMPLOYABLE CITIZEN! HOW CAN WE MAKE THAT HAPPEN?

BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF WHAT THE RIGHT KIND OF LEARNING CAN DO FOR YOU! A HUMAN DEVELOPMEMENTAL-BASED SCHOOL SYSTEM WITH A BASIC CORE CURRICULUM IS WHERE WE MUST BEGIN!

TODAY WE ARE PLAGUED BY A SOCIETY OF YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE NON-LITERATES AND NOT A SOUL IN GOVERNMENT OR IN OUR SCHOOLS SEEM TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS FACT! IN FACT, FOR SIXTY YEARS THE U.S. PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM AND THE COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY SYSTEM HAVE FUNCTIONED AS TOOLS & WEAPONS TO LEAD OUR YOUTH INTO A STATE OF ADDICTIVE MARXISM. WHILE THE ENEMY WITHIN OUR BORDERS HAVE TAKEN CONTROL OF OUR IVY LEAGUE UNIVERSITIES WHEREAS THEIR CHILDREN RECEIVE SPECIAL ATTENTION TO PREPARE THEM FOR SERVICE IN GOVERNMENT AND THE LEGAL PROFESSIONS, WHO RECEIVE PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT IN THEIR SCHOOLING WHILE THE CHILDREN OF THE FOUNDERS/SETTLERS OF THIS COUNTRY HAVE BEEN LED DOWN A ROAD THAT LEADS NOWHERE! INSTEAD OF WHITE, GENTILE, CHRISTIAN YOUTH RECEIVING FREE TUITION THOUSANDS OF BLACK YOUTH WHO CANNOT WRITE LEGIBLY OR READ AT THE FIFTH GRADE LEVEL ARE POURING INTO OUR COLLEGES! WHY?

DO YOU THINK THAT OUR COLLEGE GRADUATES WHO CANNOT BENEFIT FROM COLLEGE-LEVEL WORK WILL FIND  -- AND KEEP -- THE  JOBS THEY EXPECT TO GET AFTER GRADUATION? HOW FAR WILL WE CONTINUE TO UNDERWRITE THIS EVIL SHAM THAT SERVES ONLY THE GREEDY AMBITIONS OF LIBERAL/PROGRESSIVE POLITICIANS?

ARE WE WAITING FOR GOD TO RETURN TO STRAIGHTEN THINGS OUT?
