What is an activist...?
According to Merriam Webster, an activist is a person who takes direct, vigorous action especially in support of or in opposition to one side of a controversial matter or issue.
Previously I was just someone who 'had an opinion' about stuff. Now, I seem to be writing letters or blogging about issues that are near and dear to my heart pretty much every single day. -I'm always fired up about something...!
-And I just can't keep quiet about it...!
So, what am I taking direct, vigorous action in support of or against today...?
Oh there are so many things I don't even know where to start...
I suppose one of the biggest issues I'm getting steamed up about is the culture clash between Christians who are willing to stand up for what they believe in and those non Christians who are trying to take every reference to and about Jesus Christ out of our society.
God is out of the public school, and has been since the 1960's All the 'mess' happened back in the early 1960's before I was even born...!
Now, 50 years later our country is so far removed from what our founding Father's intended it puts me on the verge of tears every time I think about this culture that my children will have to grow up in....
Where were all the Christians back in 1962 when the Supreme Court was legislating God, prayer, and the bible out of the schools...? They were sleeping...!
Well it's time for Christians to wake up and defend what they believe in before it's too late.
All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men and women to do
nothing...! -Edmond Burke, One of America's Founding Fathers
Evil is triumphing in America right now... But take courage. God is still on His Throne. He is Sovereign. He is control.
I'm not going to sit around and do nothing like my parents and grand parents did. They slept.
But I am awake...! And I'm getting Grouchy...!
To be continued....
