Well, the sharp knives are out simply because of my title, but the facts are convincing to any honest, thoughtful, concerned person interested in truth—not an agenda from far-left field. I expect to be misjudged, misquoted, maligned, and misunderstood; however, I cannot be responsible for that since those depend on a reader’s mental ability, honesty, personal honor, and commitment to truth.
America has numerous special interest groups such as Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, athletes, homosexuals, normal people, unions, numerous religious groups, liberals, conservatives, and on and on and on. Each has a right to tout their successes, complaints, ambitions, etc. And all sane, honest, thoughtful people will agree that each group has an equal right to promote his or her own group. Of course, such promotions will have various degrees of success.
It would be shocking if a Hispanic did not think his culture was superior to all others. After all, that thought does not harm those in other groups who disagree with him. Blacks should be proud of their culture and shout their prowess in athletics, entertainment, and fashion except for the silly turnaround caps and trousers falling below the 38th parallel.
Well, I am a white male though I had nothing to do with it. Still, I am honored to be white and male although I can’t legitimately boast about it. I have also been ashamed many times of strong, and evil or stupid men, but alas, all groups have such despicable jerks.
I think it’s time to highlight the great achievements of strong males since they have been obscured, neglected, and denigrated lately by lesser men. Pseudo-intellectuals like using the term dead white males.
June is the special month for the Homosexual Lobby and the media constantly promotes their parades, special events, etc., and they have that right although I think it should be a month of shame instead of pride. But then, shame for sexual immorality is as old-fashioned as the automobile crank, ladies’ corsets, white wall tires, and the buggy whip.
Personal shame for personal conduct is as infrequent as white dinosaurs in Kentucky.
God prophesied this day in Jeremiah 6:15, “Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.”
A person will not be ashamed unless there is a tried and true standard that reveals his failure. The Standard is still there; however, few are willing to recognize it. It is so stifling, so restricting such as “thou shall not commit adultery,” “thou shalt not lie,” and the like.
In our day, it is considered quaint to always tell the truth and always keep your word.
I remember the day when all people were ashamed if it became known they were living in adultery, had a baby out of wedlock, or were attracted to young girls. Moreover, everyone was horrified if someone sexually preferred his or her own gender! And no one boasted about such aberration and rebellion against community (and biblical) standards.
