I was raised a country boy, although I've gotten a bit out of touch with my roots in later life. I have solid Christian family values. I love America dearly, but I believe she is being torn apart by all of us to some degree. While I am on this earth, America is my home, but I am truly a citizen of God's Kingdom first and foremost, for that is the eternal kingdom. I do believe strongly in our Constitution and the rights and values it embodies because those principles were given to us BY God our Father. It is up to us to make sure they remain the law of the land, with God's help and sustenance.
I am very passionate about what happened to us leading up to, during, and AFTER 9/11. I believe that event defines our modern social context more than any other event since the assassination of JFK and the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I believe there are forces at work actively trying to destroy our way of life and that we MUST NOT give in to the name-calling and attempts to shout us down when we honestly and diligently seek the truth. It is the TRUTH that shall set us free. I strongly believe that if the wounds to our country and society done on 9/11 are to heal, then that process MUST begin with JUSTICE for the dead and injured of that day. We cannot begin to move forward in any positive direction while the blood of the slain innocent still cries for JUSTICE from the ground where it was spilled.
