Black, White & Blue

Dec 24, 2007 sojourn

It’s simple really, truth, that is, being black and white, or is it? Whether content in the morning newspaper or words from ”well respected” people, religious (Bible, Koran, etc.) or science books, truth may shake out as black and white - so long as the words and information line up with our personal beliefs and convictions.

I believe there are absolutes, mathematical certainties, for instance. But it seems we’ve become so individualistic that truth now hovers on the fringes of relativity. Truth, once associated deeply with honor and morality, is now a conjoined triplet consisting of personal preference, scientific exploitation, and legalism. The values that brought this nation through growth pains like Civil War and The Great Depression, and even 9/11 are being wrung from the fiber of our souls by anarchist cult minded factions with hopes of leveling the world’s humanistic playing field into a single world order.

Moral truth is watered down and scoffed at by the media in the name of liberating us from accountability and morality. Our “new societies” enable the criminal by creating legal loopholes in the name of “freedom”. Who suffers? The innocent. The parents of molested, murdered, or missing children. Small business owners and corporate America are victimized by thieves, one gets robbed at gun point, the other by greed, corruption and deception. Our legal system is handcuffed, the criminals rarely getting just punishment for their crime. But things are getting better - right?

WRONG!

Like it or not, there is no magic potion. Man is corrupt of heart by nature, and the more rope we get the longer before we hang ourselves, it’s just a matter of time. Funny how the media makes such a big deal about the fighting in Bahgdad, but not gang warfare that’s dismantling once thriving neighborhoods. Bleeding hearts pump fists for social preference rights and illigal immigration, the ACLU drives special interests, as automated phone systems are programmed for multilingual options, such as “Press #1 for English” and elderly Americans who paid their dues can barely afford basic necessities and have to scrap to cover medical care and medications.

WAKE UP!

If truth was ever black and white, it’s not any more. And, if fundamental believers (NOT RADICAL BELIEVERS) don’t start making noise and standing up for values based on integrity and honesty, we just hand the trophy of our freedom over to the puppets who don’t have the guts to get bloody fighting for our country or the freedoms they enjoy. They are just watching, learning our weaknesses (very well I might add), and waiting until we fell asleep at the wheel. Seems we have the radio blasting on 10, the windows down, and enough Starbucks in us to kill a horse, yet we’re swerving all over the road, the wreck’s about to happen. Pull over.

Think about it all… get mad, do something. Get a little black, white, and blue.
