If there’s one thing we know, it’s that America is awesome!
If there’s another thing that we know, it’s that we must place the American State above and beyond any serious challenge. The American State is the hope of the world. The American State cannot be allowed to falter. The American State must prevail…and, by the grace of whatever god it is that we mention on our Monopoly Money Dollars (which the real God hates, by the way), it shall prevail!
[insert singing of Battle Hymn of the Republic here]
Oh, we can critique around the edges and even nibble at some heavier issues (within prescribed parameters, of course), but when it comes to the ultimate goodness of the American State as the Gold Standard for how things ought to be done here on God’s America’s earth, America’s top-tier awesomeness is not to be questioned, much less challenged.
If there another ‘nother thing that we know, it’s that anyone who does dare seriously question the supreme authority, necessity and unequaled goodness of the American State has committed the unfathomable crime of being…*gasp*…unpatriotic (with even patriotism now having been redefined to mean something like “the unquestioned (and entirely appropriate) adoration of the American State”).
And why do we “know” these things?
Why do we “know” that the American State and “love of country” trumps all else?
Why do we “know” that the American State is essential to truth, justice, and goodness on earth?
Why do we “know” that the “freedom” to worship false gods is a good thing and a telltale sign of an enlightened civilization (like, say, ‘Merica)? (See: Openly Reject God’s First Commandment? YES! WE! CAN!)
Why do we “know” that the American State knows best when it comes to the creation of money out of thin air by some so that the rest of us can spend our life’s energy chasing after that fiat currency? (See: Fiat $lavery: We have been bought and paid for…with nothing.)
Why do we “know” that the American State knows best how to plan for our “retirement”, feed the poor, house the poor, and pay the poor who cannot/will not work? (See: Are we all Socialists now?)
Why do we “know” that the American State knows best when it comes to perpetual war overseas as a “necessity” for the preservation of the “freedoms” and “liberties” of those living under the glorious power and protection of the American State?
Why do we “know” that the American State knows best when to take away those freedoms and liberties for the sake of our safety and protection? (See: Problem>Reaction>Solution: Why we will beg to have our freedoms taken away and go to war forever.)
Why do we “know” that the American State is the indispensable, irreplaceable light of the world; the “shining city on a hill” that God uses to describe His Kingdom? (See: The America Idol (Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love The Almighty State)
Why do we “know” that certain unpatriotic (AKA “Christian”) worldviews and behaviors must be corrected, disciplined, and persecuted into submission or silence by economic or whatever other means available top the glorious American Corporate State? (See: Corporate “Mark of the Beast” Rollout Continues…)
Why do we “know” that the American State knows best how to “educate” our children? (See: Retarded by Design: The Mind-Blowing Success of State-Controlled “Education”.)
Well, we “know” all o’ these wonderful things ’cause the American Corporate State through its American State-controlled “schools” and American corporate-controlled pop culture has told us so, silly! Duh!
And why do we believe and go along with what the American State tells us when it comes to all of these things, beginning with and built upon the foundation of the”education” of our little ones by the State?
Because our “pastors”, “priests” and “good conservative leaders” have told us so for generations now. And why not? Most of them went through the same pro-State systems and programming thanks to the path charted by their parents. (See: Why is the beast of Socialism eating our children? Ask your pastor.)
A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher. ~ Luke 6:40
So here we are now, many generations down the “American State as god in practice” path. We “know” more lies to be true than ever before and we know less truths than ever before. This is not a coincidence. It is not accidental. It is all quite purposeful and it is going somewhere quite specific (and unpleasant).
This is how we got to things like Transgender Girl(?) Scouts in Utah and Bruce Jenner “Transitioning” into a Republican Christian Woman.
We got here by abandoning God as God in practice and then sacrificing our children – and our future – on the alter of our new god: the American State.
And make no mistake: Our shiny new red, white, and blue god will lead us into the full-blown Orwellian hell of Statist tyranny (as it is doing even now). That god is happy to use our favorite patriotic flags, colors, songs, slogans and whatever else works to keep us happy and compliant. It will use all of the fictional, fleeting, fake prosperity and peace necessary to keep us distracted from truth and hostile to those who dare stand for it.
This brings us back to an article posted here earlier this week: Have the “We will not obey!” Christian “leaders” repented of their role in bringing us to this hellish condition in the first place?
One of the “Christian leaders” described in that piece, Franklin Graham, has been openly, proudly, and loudly arguing for years now that Christians ought to keep right on shoveling their little children into the mouth of the beast that is State-controlled children’s “education”.
Mike Huckabee, like most nearly all other “conservative Christians” who define the Right wing of the Republican Party, is also all about the “preservation and improvement” of State-run children’s “education”.
The list goes on and on and on…
…and now these folks are gonna “take a stand”? Really?
Do tell?
And don’t believe it until they personally repent of their past advocacy for that State-run beast. Don’t believe it until they finally take a clear public stand for removing the State from a role that has perfectly and purposefully been given by God to the family and the church. The family and church are charged with the responsibility to educate. The State is not. (See: Redeeming Children’s Education: Confronting Our Satanic Approach to the Pursuit of Knowledge.)
And what happens when we decide we know better as ‘Mericans? Even so-called “good, conservative Christian” ‘Mericans?
What happens when we decide to let the State have what God has given to the Family and Church?
What happens when we send our little children off to be taught by the beast?
Well, look around…
…and, while you’re at it, ask the likes of Franklin Graham and Mike Huckabee if they see the connection.

This is a great read. In the effort not to add fluff to this fluff filled world, I will simply state a small part of the 10th Amendment. It says that the states hold the power over education, healthcare, and poice. Until we start demanding the constitution be followed we will not see change. Anything the federal government has done without a consent by the majority is null and void. Or if a state has asked or accepted federal assistance without consent of we the people it is null and void. Let us educate all with truth abd truth shall prevail.
