You see that in secular Europe as you state. No one considered the long-term consequences of their view of secularism and now they are suffering for it. There's a lesson to be learned in there somewhere.Fatha Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15763574263631576373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-55939309839391044232011-11-16T02:20:09.127-06:002011-11-16T02:20:09.127-06:00And all being said...we must pray.And all being said...we must pray.Doug Spurlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06825232706173567935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-47958377534694749432011-11-16T00:36:45.057-06:002011-11-16T00:36:45.057-06:00Well spoken and you have dug very deep!

My children were in public school in a different time, and until they reached college, they were sheltered by our church involvment. The Church and the home must be examples for our children. May God help us when the church becomes secular.a joyful noisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08712092116466408490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-16354726522878688412011-11-15T19:18:19.452-06:002011-11-15T19:18:19.452-06:00in all things.

However, all I can basically say is: Amen! Don't think I could ever explain it so accurately and clearly. [Going to be trying to "Word" this later on today, but no matter what I do, it won't even come close to your precision. BTW, I liked your Crusades comment; I'd never thought of it just that way.]caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-52747215640776849522011-11-15T07:46:07.891-06:002011-11-15T07:46:07.891-06:00I'm still baffled by how people view Christian...I'm still baffled by how people view Christianity who aren't Christian. Is "Love your neighbor as yourself," really that threatening? I love the photos on this post and the thought provoking thoughts. I have a burden for the school system. We pay a lot of taxes (property tax is higher than our mortgage) with no input into what is being taught. I went to a secular school it was very hard to learn. There wasn't any discipline. Why is it we only vote for representatives, instead of the stuff that really matters?Karen Kyle Ericsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519939237365240288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-86684568361612402172011-11-15T06:10:58.357-06:002011-11-15T06:10:58.357-06:00I am thankful for my Christian heritage, going all...I am thankful for my Christian heritage, going all the way back to the founding fathers but most especially my parents. I look at my daughters who are in their early 20's and their lives are bombarded with all sorts of secularism that even a generation ago didn't exist.
