Public Education Unsafe?

"In many places it is literally not safe physically for youngsters to go to school. And in many schools - and it is almost becoming generally true - it is spiritually unsafe to attend public schools."

- Elder Boyd K. Packer, David O. McKay Symposium, Brigham Young University, Oct. 9, 1996

The Saints and Prosperity

Brigham Young conversed freely on the situation of the Saints in the mountains, and said that he dreaded the time when the sants would become popular with the world: for he had seen in sorrow, in a dream, or in dreams, this people clothed in the fashions of Babylon and drinking in the spirit of Babylon until on could hardly tell a saint from a black-leg.

Middle East Conflict

This is a quote from a book I'm reading titled Awakening to our Awful Situation:

"Another vies is expressed by Joel Skousen in his highly informative World Affairs Brief (www.worldaffairsbrief.com). His feeling is that the United States is intentionally intervening in the Middle East; not to establish democracy but to creat an image of America as the bully of the world-much more apparent to foreign nations who are not subject to regulated American media control. Such provoked antagonism towards the U.S. is not accidental but intentional and will be the basis for a justified retaliation against the United States by Russia and China in a third world war. This in intended to force the New World Order upon the entire world. The U.S. is intended to be the target of a preemptive nuclear stike so as to remove the military power of the United States from the world stage, forcing the world to give power to the United Nations to fight World War 3. When one realizes that those in control support all sides that enter wars and can withdraw their support at any time, the magnitude of this observation can be better understood."

We Gave them the Weapons...

Indeed, even as President Bush castigates Saddam's regime as "a grave and gathering danger," it's important to remember that the United States helped arm Iraq with the very weapons that administration officials are now citing as justification for Saddam's forcible removal from power.

War Perverts Patriotism

"Warlike peoples pervert patriotism. We are a warlike people, easily distracted from our assignment of preparing for the coming of the Lord. When enemies rise up, we commit vast resources to the fabrication of gods of stone and steel - ships, planes, missiles, fortifications - and depend on them for protection and deliverance. When threatened, we become anti-enemy instead of pro-kingdom of God; we train a man in the art of war and call him a patriot, thus, in the manner of Satan's counterfeit of true patriotism, perverting the savior's teaching: 'Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that despitefully use you, and persecute you;' we forget that if we are righteous the Lord will either not suffer our enemies to come upon us - and this is the special promis to the inhabitants of the land of the Americas - or he will fight our battles for us."

- Spencer W. Kimball, Teaching of Spencer W. Kimball, p. 414-418

WW II

"Then as the crowning savagery of the war we Americans wiped out hundreds of thousands civilian population with the atom bomb in Japan, few if any of the ordinary citizens being any more responsible for the war than were we, and perhaps most of them no more aiding Japan in the war than we were aiding America. Military men are now saying that the atom bomb was a mistake. It was more than that: it was a world tragedy... And the worst of this atomic bomb tragedy is not that no only did the people of the United States not rise up in protest against this savagery, not only did it not shock us to read of this wholesale destruction of men, women, and children, and cripples, but that it actually drew from the nation at large a general approval of this fiendish butchery."

- J. Reuben Clark, October 1946 General Conference

Blinded by Patriotism

"Power and control are more easily accepted by a citizenry when they are "infused with fear and blinded by patriotism.""

War

"War has become the most useful tool of the secret combination."

Campaign for Liberty

Join the Campaign for Liberty revolution today. This group seeks to educate the public on correct Constitutional principles so that the people can get government back to its intended purposes.

Support the 2nd Amendment

Here is an article exposing some of Obama's true beliefs and actions regarding the second amendment. Though his website claims one thing, his voting record indicates something entirely different. I'm not saying the John McCain is the right candidate that will uphold all Constitutional principles but Obama certainly can't be the one either.
