Bless God America!


“God bless America!” But then again, why the hell should He? Our nation is the largest exporter of illegal drugs, alcohol, and pornography! We've got ministers who are sinister and lying to people in God’s name. Didn't I read something in the Bible about taking His name in vain? But every day, His name goes in vain and cast aside like crap stained underwear. As long as people are feeling good, and blissfully ignorant about the things going on around them, they don't seem to care. But you see, the problem lies with in the fact that people are sheep. Folks are content to be force fed bull crap, and lulled to sleep by the powers to be who want them to simply be uneducated, unquestioning, conformists, and knee deep in the propaganda these powers to be set forth as truth, and we're left to be creeped up on like unsuspecting mug victims walking through a dark alley to get to our car, and we're jumped on by some creep But I seem to think that there are some who are not content to merely exist, and be another dollar in some politicians sheets. Merely speaking of the constitution, there hasn't been a just war in this country since the American Revolution. However, our country is involved in more wars than it can handle. Our military loves killing people who are dark skinned, wearing turbans, and their feet shod with sandals. And don't get me started about how pro-life all the Christians in our country pretend to be. They're pro-life for the unborn American babies, but it's perfectly fine to take the life of a baby Iraqi. “That baby might grow up to be a terrorist,” some poor stupid idiotic American redneck might say. But I could have swore Jesus loves them too just as much as me and you, so why not be just as pro-life for them as you would be a child right here in the USA? “Kill'em all, and let God sort'em out,” is probably the stupidest thing that some jackass redneck could ever say! At this point in time, the phrase “What would Jesus Do,” should come in to play. I will tell you what Jesus would do to someone who had done Him wrong. Jesus would clothe them, feed them, love them, and see to it that their hate for Him was changed in to a song of love where He is the center of attention. You see, love always wins in the end, and leaves no room for competition. And when you take competition out of the equation you don't have the element or base for hate any longer. That's because the principle of Jesus' love is what makes Him the better and the stronger person, between the two, He and His enemy Instead of killing that person in the name of national duty, how about showing Christian virtue, and share Jesus' type of liberty!?!? During Christ's life, He never clenched His fist to hit anyone in the face, yet American soldiers use the butt of their machine guns to bash in Muslim skulls, and I'm certain that our Christian nation doesn't feel disgraced for doing completely opposite of what their Lord and Savior would do. Our Christian nation only reaches out in compassion when in return there is something for us to gain, like more money to export more drugs, and enslave more young teenaged girls in to human trafficking. If you're too naive to think that none of the aforementioned is happening, then you're more blind than a bat! The truth is while our military is killing people in the name of Jesus Christ who disagree with our foreign policy, we have Hollywood hot shot preachers on TV promising pipe dreams and false hopes that God wants them out of abject poverty. But only if these poor sheeple send them a donation of a hundred dollars or more will God open up the flood gates of heaven, and the money will start to pour, like a water fall over the Niagra their bank accounts are going to over flow, but the truth be told that the only ones getting rich are these snake tongued preachers who pimp the gospel like a Chicago street hoe! I think I've said enough, so I won't say any more. My point has been made that our country has turned in to the great whore of Babylon, the one you read about in the Bible. But, there I go again and I'm starting to ramble. Before America can ever have the audacity again to petition blessing from God, it needs to plant its face firmly deep down in to the earth's dark sod and unrelentingly repent while tears moisten the dirt for all the lives she's destroyed, and all the people she's hurt! I'm not completely put off by our nation. In fact, I'm really rather quite fond, but instead of saying “God bless America,” I wish more people would say, “America, Bless God!”
