WHAT IS WRONG WITH AMERICA and HUMANITY?  Add the rest of the world to that question as well...and we have a common element of difficulty.  HUMANKIND....is the problem.  The Constitution of the United States Of America can not fix the depravity of man!

Let's define some terms for discussion.

ABSOLUTE MORALITY - The existence or inference of existence of a final authority on the subject, quality, and content of morality.

Does this exist?  I say yes...in the form of God.

ABSOLUTE TRUTH - The existence of a final authority over what is true and what is not.  Does ABSOLUTE TRUTH exist?  I say yes...in the form of God.

RELIGION 1 - An organized group of passionate people who believe in an organized and orderly method for keeping divine order.  Does it exist?  Yes...in many subjective forms.  And the subjective part is the problem...lacking divine authority.

RELIGION 2 - James 1:26-27

26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

If morality is subjective then humanity will decline.   If morality has an ultimate authority to which everyone is held accountable...then we have a hope of not destroying each other.

If TRUTH is subjective then humanity will lose it's way...because there will always be fighting about what is truth and what is not.  If there is an ABSOLUTE TRUTH then God must be it.  But which God?  Therein lies the rub.  How can one know which God?

My God calls everyone to account...but not everyone answers the call of my God.

I happen to believe that my God is the only true God...and I am not sorry for that belief.

Now with regard to the governments of men...how can men govern themselves without a source of ABSOLUTE MORALITY, ABSOLUTE TRUTH, AND UNDEFILED RELIGION which honors the creator and enforcer of the standard to which we all must give account?

This is why I believe that the CONSTITUTION is a flawed document...made by men who are also flawed.

Our CONSTITUTION was designed to govern those who hold themselves accountable to a HOLY and ALMIGHTY CREATOR who endowed them with certain unalienable rights.

If our leaders no longer hold themselves to an OBJECTIVE ABSOLUTE MORALITY, TRUTH and RELIGION which honors that creator...then we have nothing left but corruption, sin, and judgment to come.

DESPITE ALL OF THIS...I still believe that the CONSTITUTION of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is the finest governing document ever created among the governments of men.  Respecting the freedom of worship...as long as that worship does not include killing of those who disagree with you...is ABSOLUTELY fine with me.  Islam is an example of a religion with it's SHARIA LAW that seeks to legislate morality.

To be honest...Christian people are no more qualified than Muslim people to run our government, if they have left behind the GUIDING HAND OF GOD's AUTHORITY.

And that brings me to the point...were the proof is in the pudding.  If my God is the GOD then we will see HIS WORD fulfilled as it is written.  That means we are headed for a one world government, with a man of lawlessness at it's head, who will shake his fist at the most high and blaspheme all that is HOLY and RIGHTEOUS, making himself GOD.

The only one who can put an end to this is the CREATOR of HUMANITY, the EARTH, and THE UNIVERSE with it's ABSOLUTE LAWS of TRUTH and MORALITY.

In my estimation...my GOD which is JESUS CHRIST is the only GOD capable of restoring proper order under HIS RIGHTFUL AUTHORITY and I believe it will happen after the S**T HITS THE FAN.
