Vast Treasure Spent On War, Should We Support It?
Today via Facebook, I shared the following video and comment regarding how much we spend on war and a bit of reflection on if we should support it: Sad how much we spend on death and destruction. Even sadder that so many of us treat that money as sacred and untouchable. Maybe I’m mistaken, but…

This Land Is Mine, God Gave This Land To Me
As the recent conflict in Gaza has escalated, I came across this video that tries to take a step back and look at a bigger picture of what has gone on over thousands of year on that land. Albeit, in a somewhat humorous and grotesque way, but it illustrates that the land has experienced a series of…

Voting For The Lesser Of Two Evils
Today was the Presidential Preference Primary voting day in Arizona. When choosing a candidate to vote for, many people see the choice as a strategic move, meant to “beat” an opponent and yield a defeat to the “other guy” that they consider extremely undesirable.

The Bible & Ron Paul
I recently came across this awesome video series that shows how Ron Paul’s positions best align with the Bible compared to other candidates (thanks to RonPaulFlix.com for sharing it). It is REALLY well done and worth the watch for all Christians. There are 13 short videos that discuss various topics and the moral, Constitutional, and…

What Is A Right? And What Does It Teach Us?
An acquaintance on Facebook who is trying to understand what rights are a little better, made this comment: I feel most of the problems with government today could be prevented/solved(?) if we really, truly understood just what our “rights” are and from whence they come. I’m still trying to enhance my understanding of what a…

You Like Ron Paul, Except on Foreign Policy
My last few posts have been focusing on foreign policy. I’m emphasizing it because I think it is the biggest obstacle for Republicans (most Independents and Democrats have much less of a problem) in supporting Ron Paul. Not that my only goal is to get people to support Ron Paul, my goal is to get…
