Don't you think it is good to hear what others think. Awhile back somebody said to me they were upset with a writer from our local newspaper because they disagreed with a stand she had taken. I tried to defend the writer's right to be heard.
Think about this if we could get people taken off of TV, radio, and removed from the newspapers just because they don't see things the way we do could they not do the same to us and those who think like we do. One of the things that makes America so great is we have the right to express our views. You can't do that in Cuba or China.
We should never compromise what we believe and for us who are followers of Jesus that includes things like the Bible being the word of God at the same time we should be willing to read, and hear the views of others.

President Obama Not All Matters Are Funny, 5-18-12 Commentary
Don't you agree somethings should not be joked about.
Well guess who told a joke on what should be a non laughing matter. AT THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT’S DINNER IN WASHINGTON a few weeks ago President Obama MADE A JOKE ABOUT THE SECRET SERVICE SCANDAL. HE SAID HE HAD MORE MATERIAL BUT HAD TO GET HIS AGENTS HOME IN TIME IN OBSERVANCE OF THEIR NEW CURFEW.
I WONDER IF THE WIVES AND CHILDREN OF THOSE AGENTS Thought THE PRESIDENT’S JOKE was funny.I’LL BET THEY didn't laugh at it. Nothing is funny about a trust in a marriage being broken. President Obama doesn't seem to be mature enough to understand that.And he is the one who in the last election the majority of the voters trusted to lead us. He doesn't seem mature to me does he to you?
WHAT WE TOLERATE WE GET MORE OF.

standing up to homosexual activists and praying for them, 5-11-12 Commentary
Do you recall the value that your parents or your grandparents might have taught you don't say anything at all unless it is nice.
That is a value that homosexual activist Dan Savage, who speaks at anti-bullying conferences across the country needs to embrace.
Speaking at the National High School Journalism Convention, Savage, who was supposed to talk about how to report bullying, instead used his time to bash the Bible and Christians, causing many to walk out. Then, he made profane references to those who left.
Good for the students who walked out. We need to stand up with the truth to souls like Savage while still praying for them to be reached with the truth.

20 Years After the LA Riots, 5-4-12 Commentary
Listen to the audio http://billydteacher.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/the-la-riots-20-years-later-5-4-12-commentary/
Twenty years ago, Los Angeles erupted in riots after four cops were acquitted in the videotaped beating of Rodney King.
I recall the LA riots because my brother had just moved out to Los Angeles to start a job with NBC at Jay Leno's tonight show.
Here are some thougts I have twenty years after the riots...
First off too many on the left and so called civil rights leaders condoned the riots by saying young blacks are tired of not being treated right instead of saying we are a nation of laws.
Those who condemned the police in Los Angeles where are they when cops are shot or abused.
Above all the riots happened because the break down of the family and value free education. In too many homes and schools and even in some churches young people are not being taught the right values. The jury ruling was just an excuse for the riots but the main reason the riots took place was the break down of values.

Faithful Chuck Colson,4-27-12 commentary
A lot of people and much of the media will remember Chuck Colson who died last Saturday for his crimes to do with Watergate but I will remember him for being faithful.Chuck was committed to what the Bible taught about visiting those in prison as if you were visiting Jesus himself. When Chuck Colson left prison, he promised to remember the men who remained behind bars. “I will never forget you guys!” he told them.
And for 36 years, Chuck faithfully kept his word.In 1976, he founded Prison Fellowship, a ministry dedicated to living out Jesus’ command to remember the incarcerated and share the transformational love of Jesus Christ with them and their families.
“I could never, ever have left prison and accomplished what has been accomplished but for God doing it through me,” Chuck once said.
God Bless Chuck Colson, and God Bless his family.

Holocaust Remembrance , 4-20-12 commentary
listen to the audio of this commentary at the following link..,
http://billydteacher.wordpress.com/2012/04/20/holocaust-remembrance-4-20-12-commentary/
Don't you think we need to recall evil events so that we don't see evil history repeated.
I am writing this commentary on Thursday, April 19th. In 1951, Israel's parliament established this day April 19 as Holocaust Remembrance Day, so as to never forget the evil genocide of two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population at the hands of Adolph Hitler's Nazi regime. Later, U.S. Congress established the Days of Remembrance, scheduled this year from April 15-22, We must remember the more than six million Jews who were killed during the Nazi Holocaust between 1938 and 1945. don’t you think.

School board member wants coach fired for his views, 4-13-12 commentary
Regardless who you are here in America don't you have the freedom to speak your mind? Don't you? A school board member in Lincoln, Nebraska wants a football coach fired. What did he do abuse some child?
Nope he spoke his mind.
The coach is Ron Brown and he works for the University of Nebraska. As I told you in another commentary Coach Brown awhile back spoke out against a special ordinance to give special rights to gays and lesbians. The openly gay member of the Lincoln school board wrote a letter asking the university to fire Brown. Brown is not backing down "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever," he said "I have no fear of any man or any thing."
Good for Coach Brown.
Doesn't Brown as an American have a right to speak his mind.Oh I forgot Brown stands for Bible based values so some want to limit his freedoms.
What do you think.
