  I know how we can save billions of dollars more. Shut down the postal service FedEx, UPS, and many other PRIVATE companies do it better and cheaper.

  While we’re at it we could lose about 90% of all other government agencies too.

  1. NASA – SpaceX and similar private companies do it faster and cheaper.
  2. National Endowment for the Arts – Why does the government need to be involved with art? Is there a shortage of artists?
  3.Department of Education – return the the running of schools back to the parents where it should have been all along.

  And this this is just the start….

• Texas Lesson Plan Instructs Students to Design Flags for a ‘New Socialist Nation’

  Every parent needs to get their kids out of the public school now!!! Don’t demand a change the curriculum… get your children OUT NOW, before it is too late. This is not the same school system you went to. The public education system is the strongest arm of liberal indoctrination, and it does not end after high school, the methods are ramped up in college.

  Do whatever it takes, home school, or private school. Your children are not being educated they are being brainwashed and robbed of critical thinking skills.

  My children are not now and will NEVER BE, in any government run school. I pay a whole lot in tuition, but it is worth it.

• See What This Alleged Man of God Wrote on a Tip Receipt That Has a Lot of People Upset

  In reply to dms2262.

  Self-righteousness? No. I can say that I always tip well because I do. When you eat at a sit-down restaurant, you are expected to tip. The Federal minimum hourly wage for servers is $2.13. Tipping is paying for food service. Not tipping, when deserved, is stealing!! Not only that but the automatic gratuity policy was laid out on the menu. If the the gratuity was not automatically added and the service was poor then I could see not paying any tip. Since it was the policy that the tip was automatic it is required. So not paying it, is theft, which is sin. He compounded his sin by using God as an excuse for not paying it. The sad fact is that in many surveys of restaurant workers the “after-church” crowd are the rudest customers and worst tippers. What kind of testimony is that, being rude and stingy?

  Tipping is not arbitrary Tipping guidelines are well established. Tipping percentages have nothing to do with tithing either, we tithe on income not services rendered.

  The fact is we all sin and have fallen short of the Glory of God, but we as Christians must be very careful of the image we display to those out in the world. If we live our lives no different that the rest of them what gain is it for them to pursue Christ?

  If this story is true, and as a Christian, I denounce this behavior. This is reprehensible and why Christians get a bad name. As was mentioned in an earlier post about how God loves a “cheerful” giver I agree. In addition since most restaurant servers make the bulk of their wages from tips, I would say this is theft in the name of God unless the service was really bad, and if it was that bad he should have gotten the manager involved.

  It is because of people like this that restaurants have to add an automatic gratuity. Also it is people like this who identify themselves as belonging to Christ that give us who truly believe and understand our Bible a bad name.

  I always tip generously, and never ever act rudely to servers. These people are just trying to make a living and they have bad days to.

• In HuffPost: ‘License’ to hunt black men would be ‘improvement’ on ‘Stand Your Ground’ law

  So according to HuffPo only black men are criminals. I guess when you are a lib it’s ok to be a little racist.

• Texas A&M Students & Alum Create Massive Human Wall to Block Westboro Protesters at Military Funeral

  My Bible’s gospel is one of good news, not one of hate. No where in the Word does it say to tell sinners that God hates them. It says go and make disciples. They are perverting God’s message and they will be judged harshly for it.

  @NJBARFLY Morality is not based on the Bible. Because God exists, He is who He is, and because He created the universe, the Law of Morality exists. The Bible merely lays out the Law of Morality.

  Just like the Law of Gravity, it existed long before it was ever explained.

  Again I ask, is all life merely and accident? If it is, then we do not have to worry about our individual purpose or the purpose of others’. I am free to do anything I want if it suits me. I can kill, rape, steal, etc.

  So how do varying levels of empathy factor into it? Serial killers have little empathy towards their victims. Empathy toward others is a subjective thing. Morality has to be based on something that is objective and well defined.

  Look at the natural world. The law of gravity is a law of the universe and does not change. It is objective and permanently defined. We can use a plumb-line to see if the wall of a building is straight, because gravity will pull the weight straight down. We have to measure morality with a constant measure.

  Again I say if all life is a “cosmic accident” then no life has purpose of value.

  Atheism is the denial that there is a God or a creator. If there is no creator, then evolution is true. If evolution is true, then our existence is nothing more than a “cosmic accident”. If that is true then there is no basis for morality. If there is no basis for morality then killing, raping, stealing, lying, and hurting others in any way is not a problem. I do not owe anything to anybody.

  So if you ask an atheist who sets moral and acceptable behavior, they would say society. If society is the measure of moral behavior, then Hitler was well within his rights to do what he did. Ahmadinejad’s society condones his action so is he in the right? According to an “true” atheist, he is.

  Those who deny God do not reduce his existence or role in the universe. God will introduce himself to anyone who wants to meet him.

• Lib Pastor Jim Wallis: ‘American Exceptionalism…Is a Heresy…& It’s Very Dangerous’

  If only more Pastors would actually read and teach the Bible…

  Psalm 33:12a
  Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD…

  Seem pretty clear to me that being founded on Judeo-Christian Principles led to a lot of blessing for this nation. As we, as a nation stray, we are seeing the blessings begin to dry up.
