Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, said this week, he would not allow a gun bill on the floor that banned assault rifles and large magazines because the votes just weren't there.
What's going on? What's going on is an effort to secure the barn door long after the horses have fled!
The horrific events of Sandy Hook have once again stimulated our leaders to "do something!" The "something" which must be done is too 'Christian,' too Rational, too Fundamental to be considered. Instead, we seek to limit gun ownership, a fundamental American Right.
In 21st Century America it is the mirror which is The Enemy! Look at ourselves: fat, lazy, immoral, debauched, drugged and satiated with inane TV shows about people who think they have talent or can dance!
To resolve our 'gun problem,' we would need to look at what we've done:
Destroyed the Traditional Family
Destroyed Objective Moral Standards
Destroyed our Educational System
Exalted the Psychological Community
Become dependent upon drugs
Become enamored of Government Largesse
Forsaken Personal Responsibility
We acquiesced to the destructive powers that be, in all of the above areas, and more. What we are apparently not yet willing to do is let the government take away our guns! Why?
One reason is our Right to Bear Arms, guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. The First Amendment to our Constitution was deliberately written to guarantee the basic rights which make Americans Free. It includes Speech, Assembly, The Press, Association AND Religion!
These are fundamental rights, without which we cease to be Free! They, along with the other Rights in the Bill of Rights, were enacted to protect citizens from an abusive government. The Founders knew something about abusive governments and how they can / will carefully and systematically draw all power to themselves if no one stops them.
The Battle in America is NOT Guns! It's Religion: what or Who we worship and why? Christianity, rooted in Old Testament principles of governance, formed the basis for our Founding Documents. Because of this we have enjoyed unbridled success. The United States of America rose to be the pre-eminent nation on the earth because of it's fundamental structure!
Now? Now we want every religion on the planet to be honored EXCEPT Christianity! Why? Because it is dangerous; injurious to the Self. When the Self wants access to unbridled sex, it's Christianity that says, No! When the Self wants free expression in all areas of life, it's Christianity that stands in the way.
Of course, noted "Christian" leaders are rising to speak out against the Bible they profess to believe and teach. Increasingly, Christian-looking preachers are siding with The Enemy on Gay Marriage, Sodomy, Debauchery, Mysticism, Psychology, Infanticide, Divorce, Collectivism and a host of destructive societal trends.
So, the next time someone takes up a gun and mercilessly kills someone, think about it. Oh, it just happened! A State Corrections Official in Colorado answered a knock on his door and was met with someone who simply shot and killed him where he stood!
Ascribing that sort of 'evil' to an inanimate object is it's own form of insanity! If there were no guns, do you not believe [know for certain] that some other object would have been used? The evil lies in mens' hearts, not in cold steel. What are we doing to control the heart? What are YOU doing?
