If you are not familiar with the story of Kevin Kammerdiener and his trek into the Army and Afghanistan and back you are missing an important one.  Kevin was injured by a suicide attack on his convoy and his single mom (Leslie Kamm) had started this blog prior to his deployment.  I have linked this to the beginning page as the whole thing should be read in chronological order starting 24th February 2008.  So you'll have to read from the bottom up to get it in the appropriate chronological order.  It is a journal detailing everything from attending his Airborne jump class and graduation to receiving the news of his injuries through present day struggles and progress in recovery.  This is an important story being lived by thousands of our brave men and women and their families and rarely told via the major media outlets.  Please take the time to familiarize yourself with this very uncommon journal of very common stories of our military volunteers' and their families' sacrifices for our freedom and security.  It is a journey you will not want to miss.

For those with shorter attention spans, this video relates visually the modus operendi of the survivor mentality.  When the worst thing you can imagine has happened and there is nothing left but the consequences, you can either give in and let your life pass before your eyes, or you can take whatever options left available to you and do with them what you can.  You might be amazed at how well you come out of it.  In other words, sitting their like a victim and letting the inevitable happen ensures your victimhood.  Fight it!  Fight it to the bitter end and write your own destiny for as long as you possibly can.  You can always deal with the victimhood after the opportunity to fight is passed.

Theater director driven out over gay marriage

From intimidation tactics to outright violent attacks are being perpetrated on the organizations who supported Prop 8 all across this nation.  This is terrorism and in every case, if the roles had been reversed the legal actions that would have been taken not to mention the media coverage that would have been dedicated to 'informing' the public would have sparked an outrage that would have undermined any credibility of those organizations.  However, since the crimes are being committed by a protected group, the media have been all but silent and in at least one case the commentator equated the criminal activity with that of the victims of that crime calling both sides hate filled and angry.

This episode of obfuscation is but one more step toward the outright persecution and expunging of religion and conservatism in our land.  City councils have in the past condemned the religious organizations for their stance on the issue of family values in opposition to calling the same sex relationship equivalent and God ordained marriage.  We are headed for dark times in this world as believers.  Though there are official gay voices denouncing this behavior, they are being drowned out by the vast numbers of very vocal proponents of their agenda. 

Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council
"We are going to see, I think, unprecedented attacks against our faith through measures like the hate crimes [legislation] to the Employment Non-Discrimination Act," he says. "We're going to see attacks on innocent human life through the Freedom of Choice Act, trying to erase all the gains that have been made in the pro-life movement. And I think even our freedoms are going to come under attack." 

Please act immediately to defend the pro-family victory won in California last week when the people of California passed a constitutional amendment (Proposition 8) by a 52%-48% margin to protect marriage as the union of a man and a woman.  Since Election Day, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) has made statements supporting demonstrations against Proposition 8, and urging California 's Supreme Court to block the amendment's enforcement.

History Of Man:  from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back to bondage – Alexander Tylers

The great cycle of faith living can be modified, interrupted, as seen in the several Jesus movements over this past century.  The Azusa Street outpouring and many other examples were exactly that.  A movement back toward Christ and the faithful church.  We who believe should first pray and then act in accordance with the Spirit who guides us.  It is very likely that the California Supreme court will again try to thwart the will of Californians to support this lobbying agenda to ruin everything this country was built upon.  Its not just the issue of homosexual marriage, its naming pornography free speech and devaluing the life of every human being.  There is so much more going on than destroying the family values that have made and kept this country strong.  Eventually, it will come down to the demonizing of our world view.

Not all professors and colleges are buckling under the pressure of Islamic radicalism in America.

Professor Wichman E-mail Claim:   A Michigan professor sent an e-mail telling Muslim students to leave the country. Status:   True.     Hooray for A Michigan State Professor!   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~       The story begins at Michigan State University with a mechanical engineering professor named  Indrek Wichman.       g        Wichman sent an e-mail to the Muslim Student's Association.   The e-mail was in response to the students' protest of the Danish cartoons that portrayed the Prophet Muhammad as a terrorist.        The group had complained the cartoons were   'hate speech.'    Enter Professor Wichman. In his e-mail, he said the following:        Dear Moslem Association,    As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU    I intend to protest your protest.   I am offended not by cartoons,   but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians,    cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders,    murders of Catholic priests   (the latest in Turkey),   burnings of Christian churches,   the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt,   the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims,   the rapes of Scandinavian girls and women    (called 'whores' in your culture),   the murder of film directors in Holland, and the rioting and looting in Paris France. This is what offends me,   a soft-spoken person and academic,   and many, many of my colleagues.   I counsel you dissatisfied, aggressive, brutal,   and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems    to be very aware of this as you proceed   with your infantile 'protests.'   If you do not like the values of the West - see the 1st Amendment -    you are free to leave.   I hope for God's sake   that most of you choose that option    Please return to your ancestral homelands   and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans.   Cordially, I. S. Wichman    Professor of Mechanical Engineering ======================================================================================= As you can imagine,  the Muslim group at the university didn't like this too well.  They're demanding that Wichman be reprimanded and the university impose mandatory diversity training for faculty and mandate a seminar on hate and discrimination for all freshmen.   Now the local chapter of CAIR has jumped into the fray. CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, apparently doesn't believe that the good professor had the right to express his opinion. (unlike the broad latitude given to the Islamists to spew their hate-filled raves)    For its part,  the university is standing its ground in support of Professor Wichman, saying the e-mail was private, and they don't intend to publicly condemn his remarks.       ============================================================    We are in a war. This political correctness crap is getting old and killing us.   ==============================

I have been a Google client and cheerleader for years, but today I was sent this story through One News Now's newsletter.  I fired off a comment letter on their G-mail commentary where they are looking for kudos.  I am peeved and I let them know it.  I've demanded a public apology and have promised to spread this story to the four corners of the earth and cancel all relations with their services until and unless I get that apology from a public source.  I will leave my blog up over there with one last entry, a copy of this story.  I will be needing recommendations for comparable services so please leave them in the comments for a good mail service, a good search engine, a good video sharing service, a good everything they do, because as I said, I have been all in on their development.

This is a movie about the stifling of Christian speech in America.  It details the accounts of people who've been arrested, had the microphone unplugged when they were speaking, children being led through Muslim prayers in school, etc.,  Very important documentary revealing the present day persecution of American Christians by America.
