Nation Gone Under July 22, 2011 Commentary


“Under God Indivisible.” Don’t you think we should always remember those words when we are saying the pledge to our flag. However NBC left those three words completely out of two video features on the Pledge of Allegiance that were run as part of their U.S. Open coverage.

The outcry was quick, forcing the network to issue an apology later that Sunday afternoon. NBC officials claim that it was an omission and that they didn’t intend to offend anyone. Perhaps this was just a mistake but the overall attitude at NBC and in much of the media is an anti American, and anti faith.

Perhaps President Reagan was right when he said: “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”

Children Rights July 21, 2011 Commentary


I don’t believe children are adults or should have the same rights as adults do you? The Supreme Court in a ruling late last month said the state of California could not prohibit the sale or rental of violent video games to children.

Two of the justices went against the majority one of them was Clarence Thomas who said the founding fathers didn’t mean the right of minors to access speech without having to go through their parents when they wrote the first amendment.

This should remind us that parents need to be the ones in charge of their children. The court needs to embrace the fact children aren’t adults. Children can’t drive, drink, or vote.

Parents should raise kids not the courts.

What do you think.

July 1, 2011 Commentary

MTV is known for pushing the lines of decency.

Just this year, the show Skins reached new extremes of sinful sexuality. But at MTV Movie Awards, actress Reese Witherspoon offered different advice. “I get that’s it cool to be a bad girl,” she said. “But it is possible to make it in Hollywood without doing a reality show.”

Too often Reality shows push the moral compass to the wrong side. The vacuum of true art is a huge opportunity for Christians. Historically, Christians have led the arts. Lets encourage young Christians to go into the arts to make a difference.

What do you think.
