again error false offered opportunity previous prophets reminded ways
        When these false prophets again appear, they can be reminded of the error of their previous ways and at least be offered an opportunity to recant and repent.
book years lists
        The measure of a great writer is not how many weeks his books spend on the best-seller lists, but how many years his books remain in print after his death.
law vampire difficult
        Once a federal law or policy is in place it is more difficult to kill than a vampire.
dollars poor taxpayers
        In business, poor performance leads to bankruptcy or, at a minimum, a restructuring of the company. In American education, failure entitles the bankrupt system to even more taxpayer dollars.
letting-go real mean
        When the Forbidden Fruit was handed to Adam and Eve, they were allowed the moral choice to accept or decline. I know people who have refused to feast on the money tree. They live simply, within their means, and seem far more content than those who are trying to horde their wealth while clinging to the ladder of 'success,' terrified to let go. That isn't real living. The Puritans rightly saw that as covetousness.
teacher children acceptance
        No child is taught to kill, but he has to be taught to love, respect, honor and value, not only his own life, but the lives of his classmates, parents and teachers. He has to experience love and acceptance. He has to know his life has purpose and meaning. No amount of money can do that.
heart soul prosperity
        But prosperity without a soul is like a corpse whose heart has stopped beating. There is no life, only consumption.
country thinking diversity
        No nation can survive without passing its heritage, language and, yes, faith to the next generation. A country must be built on something substantial and if the cultural elitists think it can be built on 'diversity,' that is a foundation of shifting sand.
mean trying doe
        As with most things governmental, failure does not mean having to try something else. It means spending more money.
views speech should
        Homo-sexuals should not be censored, but neither should those who oppose their point of view. That's called free speech.
evil defeated
        Evil cannot be accommodated. It must be defeated.
soldier devil may
        Radical Islamists are serious about killing in pursuit of their extreme objectives. Releasing their soldiers can only embolden them to take more Americans hostage. The deal for Sgt. Bergdahl may well turn out to have been a bargain with the devil.
law boxing broken
        Democrats' desperate attempt to focus on campaign finance reform instead of laws that may have been broken by the Clinton-Gore campaign is like Mike Tyson demanding a reform in boxing regulations after biting off a piece of Evander Holyfield's ear.
order law political
        If a state, or nation, has laws it will not enforce for political reasons, it mocks both the law and politics, to say nothing of the cultural order.
