Moral Decline

Documenting The Moral Decline That Threatens To Destroy America

The Government Is Recruiting An Army Of Children To Enforce Eco-Orthodoxy

What happens when the governments of the U.K. and the U.S. actively promote children to be "eco-police" who are urged to spy on their parents and to pester them to conform to environmentally friendly ways?

Surely that must be a plot from some bizarre science fiction film, right?

Wrong.

It is actually happening, and you can read all about it right here:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1089951/They-moan-lights-whine-dont-recycle-nag-using-car--Our-kids-pint-sized-Eco-Nazis.html

Children are actually being recruited to spy on their parents and to correct them when they do things that are harmful to the environment.

What in the world is happening to us?

In what bizarre universe do the children become the authorities and the parents that ones that need to be spied upon?

It is not just the environment that western governments are recruiting children for, however.

The U.S. State Department has actually announced plans to promote "online youth groups" as a new and powerful way to fight crime, political oppression and terrorism.

In addition, the new White House chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, wrote a book called "The Plan" in 2006. On pages 60 to 65 of that book, Emanuel calls for universal conscription of 18-24 year olds for civilian service in order to prepare for a potential terrorist attack.

It certainly looks like government is developing increasingly ambitious plans for your children.

Are you ready for that?

Should A Christian Practice Yoga? Find Out The Stunning Truth In Our New YouTube Video - Yoga: Gateway To Hinduism, New Age Religion And The Occult

We are very excited to announce the release of our brand new YouTube video.

If you have watched our YouTube videos in the past, it may surprise you that we have made a video about yoga.

But after we began researching this topic, we discovered that the truth about yoga is more shocking than we ever imagined it would be.

Well over 10 million Americans are now practicing some form of yoga, but the vast majority of these people have absolutely no idea what they are involving themselves in.

The truth is that you can't take yoga out of Hinduism and you can't take the Hinduism out of yoga.

For instance, did you know that "yoga" is literally a Sanskrit word that means to yoke with Brahman?

Did you know that many of the mantras that yoga instructors have their followers chant are actually the names of Hindu gods?

Did you know that many of the practices of yoga are specifically designed to call forth Hindu deities?

Did you know that a large percentage of people who get involved with yoga also get involved with Hinduism, New Age religion and the occult?

The truth is that yoga and Christianity are completely opposed to each other.

If you are a Christian that is involved with yoga then you really need to watch this video:

Planned Parenthood Gift Certificates: Now You Can "Give The Gift Of Abortion" This Christmas

How low can America go?

Now Planned Parenthood of Indiana is offering Christmas gift certificates that recipients can use to get an abortion.

It is hard to describe how sickening all of this is.

This is how Planned Parenthood of Indiana is describing their new "gift certificate" program:

"Looking for an unusual, yet practical gift this holiday season? Planned Parenthood of Indiana (PPIN) is now offering gift certificates for services or the recipient's choice of birth control method."

Since 1973, well over 40 MILLION innocent babies have been chopped up and slaughtered in American abortion mills.

Now people can even give gift certificates to someone so that they can go have an abortion.

How far down the toilet has America gone as a society?

When are we going to wake up and realize that killing about a million babies a year in the United States is a horror that threatens our national survival?

This Thanksgiving Let Us Be Thankful For What We Still Have - We May Lose Even That Soon

This Thanksgiving let us thank the Lord for the freedoms that we still have. The world is changing at a pace that is mind blowing, and next Thanksgiving many of the freedoms we have now may be gone if we are not careful.

Many changes in our world have kind of snuck up on us. For example, even our food is being radically messed with.

Are you going to have turkey for Thanksgiving? Science has supersized your turkey dinner and you don't even realize it. The truth is that turkeys are now well over twice as large as they were in the 1930s.

We have created freaks of nature, but with "advances" in genetic engineering we are starting to radically change ALL of our foods. Very little is still "natural" anymore, and soon even the little bit that is still "organic" will be gone.

Soon gone will be our freedoms as well if we are not vigilant to protect them.

The U.S. State Department has actually announced plans to promote "online youth groups" as a new and powerful way to fight crime, political oppression and terrorism.

So what does that mean?

It means creating little brigades of "youth spies" that can tattle on their parents and their neighbors.

Doesn't that sound wonderful?

And the authorities are fighting against Christian principles almost everywhere we look now:

*A Miami judge has ruled against the Florida gay adoption ban calling it unconstitutional.

*A Christian police officer in the United Kingdom has been fired for witnessing to gay coworkers.

*Schoolgirls as young as 14 in the United Kingdom will be taught in school about their "right" to choose an abortion.

The reality is that we have never seen times like these in our lifetimes.

The world is changing.

But at least we have one day to stuff ourselves with genetically modified turkeys and not think about it.

Christians Attacked By A Mob On The Streets Of America

2008 is a year when change is happening at a pace that is almost blinding.

America is not the country that most of us grew up in. It has completely changed.

The video below is shocking. But this is America now.

Imagine being surrounded and assaulted by a raging, screaming group of hundreds of people who absolutely hate you:

Proof That Jesus Christ Was NOT Born On December 25th

Most Christians are shocked when you tell them that Jesus Christ was not born anywhere near December 25th. The word "Christmas" is not in the Bible, and neither are "Christmas trees" or "Christmas presents". The truth is that most Christians do not know some of the most basic truths about what has been billed as their most important holiday.

Our research has uncovered some shocking truths about Christmas, and we are incredibly excited to announce the release of our brand new YouTube video entitled: "Proof That Jesus Christ Was NOT Born On December 25th". The video is embedded at the end of this post, and we hope that you will watch it and let us know what you think about it.

This new YouTube video explores the following questions among others:

-Would it have been way too cold for the shepherds to be out with their flocks at night in late December?

-Can we prove from the Scriptures that Jesus was NOT born in the winter?

-Do the Scriptures give us information about when Jesus actually was born?

-Was there a real, historical reason why the inns were full when Mary and Joseph were looking for a place to stay?

-Is there a holiday that was instituted by God over a thousand years before Jesus was born that prophetically foreshadowed the circumstances of His birth?

-Does the God of the universe cause His most important events to fall during the holidays that He instituted in the Scriptures?

What you have never been taught about the birth of Jesus may shock you.

You are not going to hear these things in the vast majority of Christian churches.

Watch the video below with an open mind - perhaps it is time for all of us to learn the truth about Christmas.

So, you may ask, why do Christians celebrate Christmas on December 25th?

The truth is that there was a late December pagan holiday that was celebrated for centuries before Jesus was ever born, and many of the "Christmas traditions" of today can be directly traced to pagan religious practices of centuries past.

The Roman Catholics decided to "christianize" that pagan holiday starting in 336 A.D. and turn it into a celebration of the birth of Christ.

You can find out much more by watching our other video on this topic entitled "The Christmas Conspiracy: The Pagan Origins Of Christmas". We hope that you will get a chance to watch that one as well.

Our newly released YouTube video that shows that Jesus was NOT born on December 25th is posted below.....

In The United States It Is Women Who Rule The Home - And Most Men Are Okay With That

A shocking study done by the respected Pew Research Center reveals that in the United States it is women who predominantly rule at home.

The study surveyed 1,260 individuals who were either married or living together. What the study found was that in 43% of all couples, women make more decisions in the four areas Pew surveyed: planning weekend activities, household finances, major home purchases and TV watching.

26% of the time men make more of the decisions, the survey revealed, and 31% of the time the decisions are made "equally".

So should we be surprised? Can we all not see that the women wears the pants in most families now?

For example, one respondent to the USAToday article on this survey wrote this:

"I am a manager at work, and wouldn't have it any other way. But when I get home, I'd much rather chill out and let the wife make the calls."

The truth is that we have trained a generation of American men to be immature, subservient, submissive wimps who are very hesitant to take responsibility or leadership.

Just watch just about any sitcom or any commercial or any movie with these issues in mind. Watch who the dominant or responsible partner in any couple is. Once you know to look for it you will see it everywhere.

This is not how a society should work.

The Bible teaches that men should be strong, powerful, sacrifical servant-leaders as we see in Ephesians 5:25:

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

The truth is that men need to be so strong for their wives and children that they need to be ready to die for their families if it comes down to that.

Wow, how far we are from that ideal today.

Oprah Winfrey - A Spiritual Wolf Among The Sheep

Did you know that Oprah Winfrey actually claims that her New Age religious beliefs and Christianity are 100 percent compatible?

Did you know that she actually quotes Bible verses in support of her false religion?

As millions of Christians sit in churches each Sunday morning, they are sitting there with a whole lot of confusion in their heads.

Some churches are teaching the truth about the foundations of the Christian faith, but the majority of churches are not. But what makes things worse is the hours upon hours of television these Christians are absorbing each week where they hear negative messages about the traditional Christian faith from celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey.

Oprah Winfrey claims that the New Age principles she is teaching do not contradict Christianity while at the same time she viciously attacks the fundamental doctrines of the Christian faith and publicly rips them to pieces:

Lawsuit Forces eHarmony To Provide Dating Services To Gay Customers

The world is changing in radical ways every single day.

Now eHarmony is the one making headlines.

eHarmony has formally agreed to provide same-sex matches as part of a lawsuit settlement. Previously, people seeking same sex matches were not able to do so using eHarmony, because eHarmony only arranged matches between men and women.

There is another, related, development on the legal front.

California's Supreme court has agreed to hear several legal challenges to the state's new ban on same-sex marriage.

So the battle over gay marriage in the state of California is far from over. If these legal challenges don't achieve the result gay activists desire, then it is likely that Californians will be faced with this issue again on the 2010 ballot.

Extreme Persecution In The U.S.A.: Church Attacked, Service Interrupted, Condoms Flung Around The Sanctuary And 2 Lesbians Make Out In The Pulpit

If you showed the headline above to an American Christian in the 1950s they would never believe that something like that could ever happen in American.

But it has happened in America.

WorldNetDaily is reporting on a vicious attack at a Christian church in Lansing, Michigan on a recent Sunday. Church members were absolutely horrified when members of a pro-homosexual organization interrupted their service "to fling propaganda and condoms around the sanctuary, drape a profane banner from the balcony and feature two lesbians making out at the pulpit."

The picture at the top of the article is from the organization that carried out this attack.

Absolutely chilling.

This is just another example of the incredible increase in Christian persecution that we have seen this year, especially since the election:

Tyra Banks Shocked By What Teen Girls Revealed To Her In A New Survey

Tyra Banks has shocked us once again, but this time it is a survey of American teen girls that is dropping jaws.

More than 10,000 teenage girls and young women took part in an anonymous survey over the summer on the website of "The Tyra Banks Show", and the results are absolutely shocking:

*On average, girls are losing their virginity at 15 years of age.

*14 percent of teens who are having sex say they’re doing it at school.

*52 percent of the respondents say they do not use protection when having sex.

*One in three says she fears having a sexually transmitted disease.

*24 percent of respondents with STDs say they still have unprotected sex.

*One in five girls says she wants to be a teen mom.

*One out of three respondents admits to having tried drugs.

Tyra Banks also told the "Today Show" that teen girls appear to be more sexually active than ever before.

One 16 year old girl that was interviewed on Tyra's show says that she had sex for the first time at 13 years of age. Since then, she says that she has had 9 sex partners and has contracted several sexually transmitted diseases, including genital herpes.

Is this any way for our teens to live?

Why do we insist on not teaching them to avoid these behaviors?

The truth is that our society has rejected God and His ways, so this is what we get.

We teach our children that they came from animals and that they can have sex whenever they want. We just suggest that they use a little "protection" (which actually is not much protection at all).

We have failed our teens.

The results speak for themselves.

The reality is that we are living in the last days, and our society is full of proud, wicked people who love to sin just like the Scriptures tell us:

2 Timothy 3:1-5

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

More Reports Of Threats And Violence Against Christians Who Supported Proposition 8

It is getting scary out there for Christians in California.

The passage of Proposition 8 in California has unleashed the fury of the gay community. Unprecedented threats of harrassment and violence against Christians are being reported that are simply jaw dropping.

At one Mormon temple in L.A., dozens of protesters waved signs, confronted police and yelled slogans such as "Bigots!" and "Shame on you!" at people coming in and out.

WorldNetDaily even reported that protesters parked an SUV painted with hate messages in front of a Mormon family's house.

But some of the worst threats of all are coming from the blogs of gay activists.

Canada Free Press has documented some of the horrible threats that have come from the gay community. Check out what some of these bloggers are saying:

"I have never considered being a violent radical extremist for our Equal Rights, But now I think maybe I should consider becoming one."

"Can someone in CA please go burn down the Mormon temples there, PLEASE. I mean seriously. DO IT."

"I’m going to give them something to be f – ing scared of. … I’m a radical who is now on a mission to make them all pay for what they’ve done."

"Burn their f–ing churches to the ground, and then tax the charred timbers."

"I hope the No on 8 people have a long list and long knives."

"I swear, I’d murder people with my bare hands this morning."

"Trust me. I’ve got a big list of names of mormons and catholics that were big supporters of Prop 8. … As far as mormons and catholics ... I warn them to watch their backs."

This is truly scary. You can read more about these threats here:

The video below gives some true insight into the mood of these protesters. In particular, pay attention to the one part of the video where the protesters actually start stomping on a cross:

If We Teach Our Children That They Came From Animals They Will Start Acting Like Them

A new poll in the U.K. reveals that more than half of all adults think that British children are beginning to behave like animals.

But it is unfair to single out the U.K. - children in the U.S. are behaving increasingly worse as well.

So why is this happening? Well, surely there are a myriad of reasons, but if we stopped teaching these kids that they evolved from animals and that they are animals, then maybe they would stop behaving like animals.

For decades there has been a gigantic debate in American society over whether "creation" (or "intelligent design") should be taught alongside the theory of evolution in American schools.

But should there even be a debate? What does the scientific evidence say?

After all, shouldn't the actual science be more important than what people would like to believe?

Shouldn't logic, reason and hard facts trump any personal agenda that anyone is trying to push?

So let's look at what the science actually shows us.....

"I myself am convinced that the theory of evolution, especially the extent to which it's been applied, will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so very flimsy and dubious an hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity that it has."

-Malcolm Muggeridge (world famous journalist and philosopher), Pascal Lectures, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

The following are three key points which clearly show that creation science clearly fits the scientific evidence better than Darwinian evolution:

1) If evolution was true, we should have millions upon millions of transitional fossils.

But the reality that we find in the fossil record is this:

"I fully agree with your comments on the lack of direct illustration of evolutionary transitions in my book. If I knew of any, fossil or living, I would certainly have included them. You suggest that an artist should be used to visualise such transformations, but where would he get the information from? I could not, honestly, provide it, and if I were to leave it to artistic license, would that not mislead the reader?"

-Dr. Colin Patterson, senior paleontologist at the British Museum of Natural History (and a hardcore evolutionist), in a letter to Luther Sunderland, April 10, 1979.

In response to this point, Darwinists will usually trot out the same handful of incredibly weak, totally laughable examples of "transitional forms" that have been debunked and discredited time after time (for example Archaeopteryx):

http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v1/i1/archaeopteryx.asp

However, the truth is that if Darwinian evolution was true there would be millions upon millions of very clear transitional fossils in the fossil record.

But their "theory" has a huge problem.

The fossils are simply not there.

"Lastly, looking not to any one time, but to all time, if my theory be true, numberless intermediate varieties, linking closely together all the species of the same group, must assuredly have existed. But, as by this theory, innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the earth?"

-Charles Darwin

"In fact, the fossil record does not convincingly document a single transition from one species to another."

-Evolutionist Stephen M. Stanley, Johns Hopkins University

So, what the science actually reveals is that the "missing links" have always been missing and they always will be missing because they were never there.

2) If evolution was true, then we should see an "evolutionary tree" in the fossil record, with complex life developing very slowly from earlier, less complex forms. Instead, what we do see is the sudden, instant appearance of complex life in the fossil record (evolutionists refer to this as the Cambrian explosion):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambrian_explosion

The truth is that complex life first appeared on the earth in a very sudden, explosive manner.

"The earliest and most primitive members of every order already have the basic ordinal characters, and in no case is an approximately continuous series from one order to another known. In most cases the break is so sharp and the gap so large that the origin of the order is speculative and much disputed"

-Paleontologist George Gaylord

The reality is that complex life appears in the fossil record fully formed and fully functional.

There is no denying it.

There is no getting around it.

Now which worldview does the sudden appearance of fully formed, fully functional complex life in the fossil record support?

Creation science of course.

3) In addition, evolutionists are at a complete and total loss for how to explain the creation of new information that is required for one animal to turn into another animal.

As one creation scientist explained:

"The key issue is the type of change required — to change microbes into men requires changes that increase the genetic information content, from over half a million DNA ‘letters’ of even the ‘simplest’ self-reproducing organism to three billion ‘letters’ (stored in each human cell nucleus)."

Evolutionists cannot show us a single example of functional new information being added to any creature.

Evolutionist Stephen J. Gould, Harvard:

"Every paleontologist knows that most species don't change. That's bothersome....brings terrible distress. ....They may get a little bigger or bumpier but they remain the same species and that's not due to imperfection and gaps but stasis. And yet this remarkable stasis has generally been ignored as no data. If they don't change, its not evolution so you don't talk about it." Lecture at Hobart & William Smith College, 14/2/1980.

Christians, when you are in a debate with a Darwinist, the following is an outstanding question to ask of them:

"Do you have enough blind faith to believe that life just popped into existence from nonlife, and that such life just happened to have the ability to take in the nourishment it needed, to expel waste, and to reproduce itself, all the while having everything it needed to survive in the environment in which it suddenly found itself?"

Here are three questions which I would love to hear evolutionists try to answer:

1) Which evolved first: the mouth, the stomach, the digestive fluids, or the ability to poop?

2) Which evolved first: the windpipe, the lungs, or the ability of the body to use oxygen?

3) Which evolved first: the bones, ligaments, tendons, blood supply, or the muscles to move the bones?

Conceivably, you could continue this exercise forever. The reality is that the body has a huge variety of incredibly complex systems which completely rely on other incredibly complex systems that cannot function on their own. Evolutionists just tend to completely ignore this bit of common sense.

In addition, we have a standing challenge for any evolutionists, skeptics or atheists to go and try to debunk these videos:

http://www.leestrobel.com/Creator.htm

If you can actually debunk those videos then you are better than any evolutionist we have ever met.

"Evolutionism is a fairy tale for grown-ups. This theory has helped nothing in the progress of science. It is useless."

-Professor Louis Bounoure, past president of the Biological Society of Strassbourg, Director of the Strassbourg Zoological Museum, Director of Research at the French National Center of Scientific Research.

So do you still believe in the theory of evolution? Do you actually still believe that the science backs it up? Feel free to post your response to this article in the comments section.

Is "The Big American Christmas" Disappearing?

Recent polls reveal that a huge percentage of Americans will be spending less this Christmas, and more Americans than ever are choosing not to celebrate Christmas at all. Is this the beginning of the end for "the Big American Christmas"?

A recent gallup poll found that a record-high 35% of Americans say they will spend less on Christmas gifts in 2008 compared with what they spent in 2007.

The same poll found that only 9% of Americans plan to spend more.

An unscientific CNN poll on November 11, 2008, found that a whopping 45% of Americans said they would not be doing any Christmas shopping this year. With all of the job losses, home foreclosures and credit card defaults, it is not a surprise that Americans do not have much money for Christmas this year.

Should it surprise us that more Americans than ever are rejecting big Christmas spending? After all, the new president of the United States, Barack Obama, does not give Christmas presents to his children.

With record numbers of Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Jews living in the United States now, a smaller percentage of Americans are celebrating Christmas than ever before. Alternative celebrations such as Kwanzaa are becoming increasingly popular.

Those who are not religious at all are either attacking the holiday or are trying to incorporate a "non-religious" version of Christmas into their lives.

One enterprising greeting card company has actually unveiled "atheist Christmas cards" for the 2008 holiday season.

Others are not afraid to make a full frontal assault on Christmas. Controversial new ads that state, "Why believe in a god? Just be good for goodness' sake" will be appearing on Washington D.C. buses through the end of December. These provocative advertisements are being paid for by the American Humanist Association, and they are spending forty thousand dollars to get their point across.

Some religious groups seemed determined to do their very best to keep fighting for Christmas. Several Christian groups have launched a campaign to boycott retailers who ban "Christmas" references from their holiday advertising.

However, other Christian groups are rejecting Christmas for spiritual reasons. The word "Christmas" is actually not in the Bible, they point out, and Jesus was not born on December 25th.

These Christian groups argue that December 25th was celebrated as a pagan religious holiday long before Jesus ever came to earth, and therefore the celebration of December 25th along with all of the pagan traditions and rituals that have come down to us need to be rejected as well:

Humanists Launch "Why Believe In A God?" Ads On D.C. Buses

Controversial new ads that declare, "Why believe in a god? Just be good for goodness' sake" will appear on Washington D.C. buses beginning next week and will continue to appear through the end of December. These provocative ads are being paid for by the American Humanist Association, and they are spending 40,000 dollars to get their point across.

"We don’t want atheists to be left alone in their convictions over the holidays," stated Roy Speckhardt, the American Humanist Association’s executive director, who announced the new ad campaign at the National Press Club on Tuesday.

Speckhardt also add this: "Morality doesn’t come from religion. It’s a set of values based on empathy, fairness, and experience – and these all happen to be the essence of the humanist worldview."

This ad campaign is just another example of the recent trend for atheist and humanist groups to be more "in your face" with their message.

"We are trying to reach our audience, and sometimes in order to reach an audience, everybody has to hear you," explained Fred Edwords, another spokesman for the American Humanist Association. "Our reason for doing it during the holidays is there are an awful lot of agnostics, atheists and other types of non-theists who feel a little alone during the holidays because of its association with traditional religion."

But this idea is not exactly original.

Just last month, the British Humanist Association made worldwide headlines by announcing a similar campaign on London buses that proclaimed this message:

"There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."

Do We Need Strict Population Control For The Good Of The Earth?

Is the ballooning population of planet earth a huge threat to the environment? Do we need to implement strict population controls for the good of mankind?

The reality is that the world has more people than it ever has before. Some countries have implemented population laws that are quite strict (such as China's one child policy), while other nations do not have any population regulations. Lately, however, we have started to see some population control measures begin to pop up in the Western world.....

*Women in the Netherlands who are deemed by the state to be unfit mothers will be sentenced to take contraception for a period of two years, according to a new draft bill before the Dutch parliament.

*In the U.K., one influential think tank says that it is an "eco-crime" to have too many children and that we really need to examine the impact our large population is having on the earth.

*In South America, the government of Peru goes door to door pressuring women to be sterilized and they are funded by American tax dollars to do this.

The desire by the global elite to limit the population of the earth has been around for a long time. Between 1798-1826, English economist Thomas Malthus published six editions of his work entitled "Essay on the Principle of Population", which argued that population growth inevitably outstrips food production.

The primary argument advanced by Malthus was that the English working class was poor not because they were exploited, but rather because there were too many of them. Malthus opposed welfare and higher wages because he believed they would allow the poor to survive and breed, thus compounding the overpopulation problem and leading to more poverty. Of course Malthus was terribly wrong about all of this, but nonetheless his theories gained wide acceptance among the English elite of his day.

Many years later, Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, vigorously promoted this type of thinking in the United States. The following is one of Margaret Sanger's most famous quotes:

"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

Unfortunately, the theories of Malthus, Sanger and other population control advocates did not die. Rather, they seemed to gain steam as the population of the world exploded in the 20th century.

U.S. environmentalist Paul Erlich, in his 1968 book entitled "The Population Bomb", argued for strict population control measures, especially in the poorer areas of the world, or else we would face huge problems.

Dr. Arne Schiotz, World Wildlife Fund Director of Conservation, said this in 1984:

"Malthus has been vindicated, reality is finally catching up with Malthus. The Third World is overpopulated, it’s an economic mess, and there’s no way they could get out of it with this fast-growing population. Our philosophy is: back to the village."

Unfortunately, the philosophy of Erlich, Schiotz and others has been adopted by many elements of the United States government:

“There is a single theme behind all our work–we must reduce population levels. Either governments do it our way, through nice clean methods, or they will get the kinds of mess that we have in El Salvador, or in Iran or in Beirut. Population is a political problem. Once population is out of control, it requires authoritarian government, even fascism, to reduce it…."

“Our program in El Salvador didn’t work. The infrastructure was not there to support it. There were just too goddamned many people…. To really reduce population, quickly, you have to pull all the males into the fighting and you have to kill significant numbers of fertile age females…."

“The quickest way to reduce population is through famine, like in Africa, or through disease like the Black Death….”


–Thomas Ferguson, State Department Office of Population Affairs

The quotes above are typical of the mindset of the global elite. The call for radical population control has grown louder than ever before. College professors are given standing ovations by their students when they call for a 90 percent reduction in the human population of the planet. Ted Turner said, "A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal," and the global elite applauded him for it. The Georgia Guidestones which call for us to "maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature" are increasingly cited by our leaders as an important, and perhaps even necessary, goal.

What is happening to our world?

It seems as though for the global elite, every major crisis these days is an opportunity to further one of the key pillars of their agenda:

Population reduction.

Problem #1: Gas costs too much and we are faced with "global warming".

Answer: Get rid of a whole bunch of people and we will use less gas and we will produce less "greenhouse gases".

Problem #2: Medical costs are soaring out of control.

Answer: Get rid of a whole bunch of people and kill off the elderly and we will have fewer medical costs.

Now Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, has the perfect solution for the "food crisis":

Get rid of a whole bunch of people......

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article3908588.ece

The following is one of Prince Philip's most famous quotes about world population:

"You cannot keep a bigger flock of sheep than you are capable of feeding. In other words conservation may involve culling in order to keep a balance between the relative numbers in each species within any particular habitat. I realize this is a very touchy subject, but the fact remains that mankind is part of the living world…. Every new acre brought into cultivation means another acre denied to wild species."

Prince Philip, the "Eco-Warrior", also once said that he would like to come back to earth as a disease after he died to help reduce the human population.

But he is far from alone on this issue. The call for human depopulation is coming from a myriad of other sources:

John Guillebaud, professor of family planning at University College London has said: “The effect on the planet of having one child less is an order of magnitude greater than all these other things we might do, such as switching off lights. An extra child is the equivalent of a lot of flights across the planet."

He has also stated this: “The greatest thing anyone in Britain could do to help the future of the planet would be to have one less child.”

Now there are influential think tanks in the United Kingdom that are even advocating that the U.K. adopt a "2 child" policy to help fight "global warming".

The Club of Rome certainly is clear who they think the enemy is.....

"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill…. But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into the trap of mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

–Club of Rome, The First Global Revolution, 1991

Mikhail Gorbachev made the following shocking statement about the population of the earth: "We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage."

The reality is that we are getting increasingly closer to the kind of world where the "useless eaters" that Henry Kissinger talked about will be "eliminated". Is this the kind of future that we want for us and our children?

The truth is that the world is not experiencing runaway population growth. While the earth's population is growing, the rate of growth is definitely slowing. The population of the world grew by 140% between 1950 and 2000. However, authorities predict a rise of only 50% between 2000 and 2050, and a rise of just 11% in the 50 years after that.

The truly frightening thing is that many of you who are reading this article actually agree with this radical depopulation agenda. For those of you who do believe in such insanity, we would love to hear your rationale. Feel free to post a comment to this article below.

Are U.S. Taxpayer Dollars Being Used To Fund Iran's Nuclear Program?

Wouldn't it be mind blowingly stupid for the American government to be funding Iran's nuclear program with U.S. taxpayer dollars?

You say that it could never possibly happen?

Well, perhaps you should reserve judgment until you view the CNN video report posted below.

When a country starts collapsing morally, things like this start happening.

This video should make all Americans incredibly mad:

James Dobson Admits To "Grieving" Over The Election Results

The founder of Focus on the Family, James Dobson, admits that he is currently in a grieving process over the results of the presidential election.

"I want to admit that I am in the midst of a grieving process at this time," Dobson confessed on the Focus on the Family radio broadcast on Thursday. "I’m not grieving over Barack Obama’s victory, but over the loss of things that I’ve fought for, for 35 years."

Dobson went on to further elaborate why he is so upset:

"[H]e’s going to appoint the most liberal justices to the Supreme Court, perhaps that we’ve ever had," Dobson said. "So, there are many reasons why I’m struggling today over the likely path that the nation has taken."

James Dobson is certainly not alone. Many evangelical Christians feel devastated by the election of Barack Obama. Many feel as though the America that they once knew is gone forever.

But what should we expect? The truth is that we are in the end times. Those who know the truth knew that things were going to head this direction. Times and going to get tough and persecution of Christians is going to dramatically increase.

America has rejected life, morality, truth and God. That is the truth and we all need to face it. A political battle has been lost, but the war to win souls for Jesus Christ is as important as it ever has been.

A Prayer Of Love And Support For President Obama

Whether you are in a red state or a blue state, or whether you supported Barack Obama or you didn't, the truth is that Barack Obama is going to be the president of all Americans. One thing that I hope that we all can agree on is that we should pray for our president, because he is the leader of this nation and it is an incredibly difficult job.

So, with that being said, this is our prayer for President Obama:

We pray that God would give President Obama great knowledge and wisdom in leading the United States of America.

We pray that President Obama would be able to bring the country together and would make decisions that would be good for the whole country.

We pray that President Obama would be able to end these wars quickly and would be able to bring our soldiers home safely.

We pray that President Obama will be able to find a way to keep people in their homes and to help people without homes to have a warm place to sleep each night.

We pray that President Obama will stop America from destroying the environment of the world.

(America's Wickedness Has Turned The Pacific Ocean Into The World's Largest Garbage Dump: http://themoralcollapseofamerica.blogspot.com/2008/08/have-you-heard-of-great-pacific-garbage.html)

We pray that President Obama will help teach the young people of this nation that they should wait until marriage to have sex.

(1 Out Of Every 4 Teen Girls Have An STD & More Than 25 Percent Of The Residents Of New York City Have Herpes: http://themoralcollapseofamerica.blogspot.com/2008/07/1-out-of-every-4-teen-girls-have-std.html)

We pray that President Obama will help the United States end poverty around the world. The reality of poverty is something no compassionate nation can ignore.....

1 billion people in the world go to bed hungry every night.

Every 3.6 seconds someone starves to death and 3/4 are children under the age of 5.

More than 2.8 billion people, close to half the world's population, live on less than the equivalent of $2 a day.

More than 1.2 billion people, or about 20 per cent of the world population, live on less than the equivalent of $1 a day.

More than 1 billion people do not have access to safe water.

About one-third of all children under the age of five suffer from malnutrition.

We pray that President Obama will encourage Americans not to give up on their marriages.

(The percentage of the population that is divorced: 10% which is up from 8% in 1990, and 6% in 1980.)

We pray that President Obama will help end the epidemic of child abuse in America.

No moral nation should allow child abuse to occur at these levels.....

-It is estimated that there are over 60 million survivors of childhood sexual abuse in America today.

-Approximately 95% of all teenage prostitutes have been sexually abused.

-Of all American prisoners convicted of rape or sexual assault, two-thirds victimized children.

-Reported cases of child sexual abuse increased 322 percent from 1980 to 1990.

We pray that President Obama will be able to reduce the national debt.

Once upon a time, the United States was the biggest creditor in the world. But those days are long gone. Now America is the biggest debtor nation to ever exist on the earth.

America was once the richest nation in the world, but that was not nearly enough for them. Americans always had to have a bigger car, a bigger house and an endless supply of "stuff". So the government piled up debt, America's companies gorged on debt, and Americans made using credit cards into a national pastime.

Spending our own money wasn't even enough. We spent the money of our children, and of our grandchildren, and of their children, and now the national debt is approaching 10 TRILLION dollars.....an amount that we will never be able to repay. And if you include the future liabilities that our government has committed us to such as future Social Security and Medicare payments, then the total is over 59 TRILLION dollars.

Now that many of our jobs have gone overseas, the price of gasoline is shooting through the roof, and people are losing their homes, do we find that Americans are learning their lesson?

No.

Instead we are squeezing everything we can out of our plastic. Total credit card debt in America has reached almost a trillion dollars, and it is increasing at a rate which is four times faster than earlier this decade.

Instead of showing restraint, we have jammed the accelerator to the floor.

Prices are increasing dramatically while wages are remaining flat or even decreasing. Jobs are being outsourced and factories are being closed at a staggering pace. Our largest banks and financial institutions are teetering on the brink of failure. Homes are being foreclosed at record rates. Personal bankruptcies recently hit an all-time high. And so what is the answer the politicians give us? Wasting even more money and getting us into even more debt.

We pray that President Obama will end the use of depleted uranium weapons by the U.S. military.

Under George W. Bush, America has been using thousands of tons of depleted uranium munitions - dirty bombs made from our nuclear waste - in our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The resulting devastation from using these dirty nuclear weapons is a crime against humanity of the utmost magnitude:

http://shatteredparadigm.blogspot.com/2008/11/obama-please-ban-americas-depleted.html

We pray that President Obama will stop America from brutally torturing the prisoners it takes.

The torture techniques that America uses include hooding, stripping detainees naked, subjecting them to extreme heat, cold, noise and light, and depriving them of sleep. This torture by American authorities often expands into more vicious forms such as vicious beatings, sexual degradation, sodomy, near drowning, and near asphyxiation:

We pray that President Obama will do something about America's addiction to pornography.

We pray that President Obama will realize that....

-89% of porn is created in the United States

-$2.84 billion in revenue was generated from U.S. porn sites in 2006

-260 new porn sites go online daily

-Porn revenue is larger than all the combined revenues of all professional football, baseball and basketball franchises

-25% of total search engine requests are porn related

-More than 70% of men from 18 to 34 visit a pornographic site in a typical month

We pray that President Obama will work to end abortion in the United States.

Since 1973, well over 40 MILLION innocent babies have been chopped up and slaughtered in American abortion mills. For the good of the nation this must end.

We pray that President Obama will work with those who just helped pass Proposition 8 in California and will help to defend marriage across the United States.

In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

Please Note - I did not vote for Obama and I did not support Obama during the campaign, but he deserves our prayers.

Shocker! California Passes Proposition 8 And Outlaws Gay Marriage!

Just when you've completely and totally given up on California.....

On a day when Californians overwhelmingly voted for Barack Obama, California voters approved an amendment to their constitution outlawing same sex marriage, overturning the California Supreme Court decision that granted gay couples the right to wed just a few months ago.

With almost 100 percent of the precincts now reporting, Proposition 8 was leading 52 percent to 48 percent.

The battle over Proposition 8 was one of the most passionate fights over a ballot initiative in American history. The "Yes on (Proposition) 8" campaign had raised approximately 35 million dollars and had sent out about 100,000 volunteers all over the state of California.

The "No on 8" faction had raised approximately 38 million dollars and had about 10,000 volunteers.

Campaign donations for this fight came in from all across the United States, with Christians and Mormons donating for Proposition 8, and gay rights activists and Hollywood stars such as Ellen DeGeneres and Brad Pitt donating to oppose it.

Chip White, a co-campaign manager for the "Yes on (Proposition) 8" campaign said this after the results came in: "Momentum continues to be on our side as California recognizes the serious consequences if gay marriage remains legal."

Florida and Arizona also voted Tuesday to outlaw gay marriage, joining dozens of other states that define marriage as being exclusively between a man and a woman. In both Florida and Arizona, there were laws that already defined marriage as a heterosexual institution, but supporters pushed to amend the state constitutions, claiming that doing so would protect marriage from future legal challenges.

Ultimately, it ended up being a really great election for the opponents of gay marriage.

However, it is important to note that the California vote against gay marriage was not nearly as strong as it was eight years ago.

Eight years ago, Californians voted 61% to define marriage as being between one man and one woman. So Tuesday's vote was substantially weaker, and this has got to be a source for concern.

But the amendment still passed, and that is something to be thankful for.

A Really, Really Bad Day For The Opponents Of Abortion

Voters in several states overwhelmingly rejected anti-abortion ballot measures in a devastating defeat for anti-abortion forces. Even in "red states", American voters have sent a clear message regarding what they believe about the issue of abortion.

The following are four decisions that American voters made yesterday that were crippling to the pro-life movement:

#1 Barack Obama Wins The Presidency

Barack Obama: "The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act. That's the first thing that I'd do." -- Senator Barack Obama, speaking to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, July 17, 2007

Now Americans are guaranteed that the White House will nominate only pro-choice judges for at least the next four years. America now has the most pro-abortion president that it has ever elected.

#2 South Dakota Voters Reject Abortion Ban

Voters have defeated the SouthDakota abortion ban 55 percent to 45 percent. South Dakota has traditionally been one of the most "red" states, and this shows that abortion ballot measures are unlikely to win anywhere.

#3 California Voters Reject Parental Notification Measure

A California ballot measure that would require doctors to notify parents before performing an abortion on a child appears headed for defeat.

So abortionists can now feel free to carve up children and their unborn babies without ever telling their parents.

#4 Focus On The Family Crushed In Their Own Back Yard

Colorado voters have soundly defeated a measure that would have declared that a fertilized egg is a legal person. It looks like the vote wasn't even close.

What does all of this say about the American people?

The United States Of America - The Greatest Democracy On Earth?

No matter what your political beliefs are, and no matter who you are voting for today, hopefully we can all agree that Americans should all have the right to be able to cast their votes and should have the right to have the votes counted accurately.

That is why the reports of voting problems that are already coming out today are so troubling.

Problems with electronic voting were already being reported early today in many battleground states.

Early word on the ground from watchdog organizations indicated that there were problems with getting electronic voting machines up and running in many of the key battleground states, and in other key states the machines would crash during the voting process and had to be rebooted.

But the electronic voting machines are not the only problem.

Fox News is reporting that intimidation tactics, missing ballots and faulty machinery are plaguing voters around the country.

Here is how Fox News is describing the voting problems that they are seeing around the nation:

-----

In Philadelphia, FOX News' Rick Leventhal received a report from Republican poll watcher Chris Hill that two Black Panthers had stationed themselves at the door to a polling station and were intimidating voters. One held a night stick, Hill said.

Hill told FOX News that he went to talk to the men and they told him white power didn't rule there.

The man reportedly carrying a night stick was escorted away from the polling station by police, and FOX News found another Black Panther outside the station who said he was a certified observer. Police asked him and the FOX News crew to leave the polling station.

As of noon, FOXNews.com had received complaints from voters around the country that polling stations were not prepared, that voting lists were inaccurate and some voters were worried when they were asked to cast paper ballots instead of using voting machines.

Gregory Holden reported that the voting list his polling station in Lugoff, S.C., had problems. "Many people who have always voted in this precinct are all of a sudden not on the roll," he said. "They only have five machines and there are about 300 people in line. People are so discouraged some are leaving," he wrote.

-----

If America is the "greatest democracy on earth", then there is NO EXCUSE for Americans not to have a safe, non-threatening location where they can be assured that the voting procedures work and that their votes are counted.

Watching 'Sex and the City' And 'Friends' Leads To Teenage Sex?

A controversial new study reveals that pregnancy rates are much higher among teenagers who watch a lot of television with sexual dialogue and behavior than among those who don't.

Some of the shows that the study asked teenagers about include "Sex and the City", "That '70s Show" and "Friends".

The study, published in "Pediatrics", is based on interviews with teens over a three year period.

WebMD is reporting that according to the study, teens who watched the most sexual content (90th percentile) on television were twice as likely to experience a pregnancy in the three year period as those who watched the least sexual content (10th percentile).

The researchers said this about their findings: "Given the high rates of teen pregnancy in the United States, our findings argue for continued evaluation of television's role in teen pregnancy and for prevention strategies that factor in the role of portrayals of sexuality on television and in other media."

But seriously.....will watching television and movies with highly sexual content really lead to more teenagers having sex?

Can't our teens distinguish between fantasy and reality?

Or does fantasy become reality when our teens start to imitate their heroes?

Proverbs 23:7 says this about mankind - "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he".

So according to the Scriptures, what we constantly think about is what we are likely to become.

If our thoughts are filled with sex and sexual things, then we are inevitably going to drift towards those things.

Instead of filling our minds with programs that discuss never ending sexual immorality, the Bible tells us to think about those things that are good and pure. This is what the Scriptures say in Philippians 4:8 -

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

So instead of letting our teenagers watch thousands of hours of primetime television and R rated movies, perhaps we should be seeking to help them fill their minds with more positive things.

But I am certain many readers of this blog will disagree with us.

If you do disagree, please feel free to leave a comment explaining why.

A California Kindergarten Teacher Has Her Kindergarten Students Sign Pledge Cards In Support Of Gay Rights

The news seemingly gets crazier every single day.

A kindergarten teacher at a public school in California actually had her kindergarten students sign "pledge cards" in support of homosexual rights.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Now, for one thing, kindergarten students don't have the first idea what sex even is.

Do we want kindergarten students to be thinking about these things?

Sonja Eddings Brown, a spokeswoman for Protect Marriage California, asked this question: "How do you teach a 5-year-old to sign a pledge card for lesbian, gay and transgender issues without explaining what transgender and bisexual is?"

The California school system where this took place refuses to say what action, if any, it will take on this matter.

A headline like this would have been unthinkable in the America of the 1940s or 50s. It seems as though the United States has changed forever.
