Did You Know?

13. January 2010 by admin.

Today is my Mom’s birthday. She is 86 years young. Her main issue is that she worries all the time (she even worries about me - don’t know why).

She asked me how I felt about the earthquake. I replied, “What earthquake?” I guess I need to get out more.

Mom mentioned that she was worried about the people, etc. caught in the quake. I responded with “What and who have you helped by worrying about them?” She said, “I guess no one.” So I replied, “Then why worry? If worrying only does harm to the person doing the worrying and since nothing good results in worrying, then why do it?” She began to see my point.

Worry causes stress and stress causes illnesses. Use your energies to accomplishing more important tasks like reading my blogs. ;-)

OK, now on to my post for today. Since it is Mom’s birthday, I am posting the contents of an email she and my step Dad sent me on Tuesday. I think they sent it for it’s religious overtones. I am posting it because it points out a very important concept we all need to be aware of and to TAKE MASSIVE ACTION to do something about before it is too late.

The silent majority in America need to speak out. Enough of the few, like the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) trying to destroy our country. To me it has nothing to do with being religious or not, of believing in a higher power or not. It does have everything to do with the Rights of Mankind and respecting and honoring documents that were written to give mankind the rights to govern their lives as they choose as long as it does not infringe on the rights of their neighbors to the same freedoms. These rights are for all mankind wherever they live.

I am speaking of the 10 Commandments, the Golden Rule and the US Bill of Rights. Ok, here it is:

DID YOU KNOW?


As you walk up the steps to the
building which houses the U.S. Supreme Court
you can see near the top of the building a row
of the world’s law givers and each one is
facing one in the middle who is facing forward
with a full frontal view … it is Moses and he
is holding the Ten Commandments!

2-Supreme Court

3 - Moses & the 10


DID YOU KNOW?

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the Two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments
Engraved on each lower portion of each door.

4 - doors


DID YOU KNOW?

As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see
The wall, right above where the Supreme Court
judges sit, a display of the Ten Commandments!


DID YOU KNOW?

6 - Bible

There are Bible verses etched in stone all
over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in
Washington , D.C.



DID YOU KNOW?

7 - James Madison

James Madison, the fourth president, known as
‘The Father of Our Constitution’ made the
following statement:

‘
We have staked the whole of all our political
institutions upon the capacity of mankind for
self-government, upon the capacity of each and
all of us to govern ourselves, to control
ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to
the Ten Commandments of God.’



DID YOU KNOW?


Every session of Congress begins with a prayer
by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid
by the taxpayer since 1777.



DID YOU KNOW?

8 - Constitution


Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the
Constitution were members of the established
orthodox churches in the colonies.


DID YOU KNOW?

9 - Thomas Jefferson




Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would
overstep their authority and instead of
interpreting the law would begin making law
an oligarchy the rule of few over many.


How then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 232 years in this country is now suddenly wrong and unconstitutional?

Lets put it around the world and let the world
see and remember what this great country was
built on.

10 - Moses

11 - One Nation


It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God.
Therefore, it is very hard to understand
why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display or ‘In God We Trust’ on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.


Why don’t we just tell the other 14% to Sit Down and SHUT UP!!!
