If you haven't heard about the shooting in Aurora, Colorado, you haven't had a TV or radio on for the last two days. Obama has even made it his version of 9/11 by cutting short a vacation, saying the federal government will help catch the criminal (he was already in custody) and ordering flags at half-mast. What??!! We didn't have flags at half- mast for any number of other atrocities.
That's all beside the point. One of the next questions that will go around - as it always does - Where is God when bad things happen?
The answer: Right where we put Him.
In America during the last generation, this country has done everything in its power to throw God out. No prayer in school, remove all Christian symbols from public buildings and areas, take the ten commandments out of the courthouses, no Christmas songs or saying "Merry Christmas" during the winter holidays. If certain people have their way, we won't have "In God we trust" on our money anymore. With fifty years of increasing godlessness in our nation, with at least two generations of children grown up without standards, why would you expect to find God anywhere in the situation? And if you think this country will miraculously improve under the current circumstances, guess again.
Please forgive me. I needed to vent a little spleen about such willful ignorance.
Thanks for visiting with me,
