Walking the Point

“Alexander Solzhenitsyn a well-known and respected Russian dissident, who served time in the Gulag, wrote this to warn people everywhere of the dangers of powerful people in leadership positions. It is a strong and sobering warning that all free men should think about.” (1)

Historian and author Catherine Millard writes; “Rewriting a nation’s history is frequently one of the first strategies taken by a conquering nation. Why? Because a people who do not know from where they came also do not know where they are going. Thus, they become easy prey for a conquering nation.” (2)Communists and globalists continue the assault on American tradition. Not only are they in the process of erasing our history, but they are destroying all evidence that America was founded as a Christian nation.

For example; “Leaders at the church that George Washington attended decided that a plaque honoring the first president of the United States must be removed.

Christ Church in Alexandria, Virginia will take down a memorial marking the pew where Washington sat with his family, saying it is not acceptable to all worshipers.

“The plaques in our sanctuary make some in our presence feel unsafe or unwelcome,” leaders said, a reference to the fact that Washington was a slaveholder. (What a lie!, Writer’s words)

“Some visitors and guests who worship with us choose not to return because they receive an unintended message from the prominent presence of the plaques.” (Another Lie!, Writer’s words)

“Many in our congregation feel a strong need for the church to stand clearly on the side of ‘all are welcome- no exceptions,'” they concluded.

A memorial to Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee will also come down.

The decision comes in the wake of renewed controversy over whether statues honoring Civil War figures should be no longer honored. The debate broke out again over the summer after a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia killed one and injured others.” 

President Trump expressed concern that the censoring of Confederate generals would lead to dishonoring Thomas Jefferson and George Washington as well.” (3)

Todd Starnes give us another example; “Back in 1925, the American Legion erected a memorial in Bladensburg, Md., to honor the memory of 49 men who perished during World War I. The 40-foot tall memorial became known as the “Peace Cross.”  

In 2014, the American Humanist Association — a group that believes in “being good without a god” — filed a lawsuit alleging the cross-shaped memorial is unconstitutional and demanding it be demolished, altered, or removed.

On Wednesday, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed and ruled the historic memorial must be torn down — all because the Bladensburg Memorial is in the shape of a cross.

The Fourth Circuit said the memorial excessively entangles the government in religion because the cross is the “core symbol of Christianity” and “breaches” the wall separating church and state.

Writing separately, Chief Judge Gregory wrote, “This Memorial stands in witness to the VALOR, ENDURANCE, COURAGE, and DEVOTION of the forty-nine residents of Prince George’s County, Maryland ‘who lost their lives in the Great War for the liberty of the world.’ I cannot agree that a monument so conceived and dedicated and that bears such witness violates the letter or spirit of the very Constitution these heroes died to defend.”

The American Legion could appeal directly to the Supreme Court.

“Today’s decision sets dangerous precedent by completely ignoring history, and it threatens removal and destruction of veterans memorials across America,” First Liberty Institute attorney Hiram Sasser said.

First Liberty Institute and the Jones Day law firm are representing the American Legion in their fight.

“This memorial has stood in honor of local veterans for almost 100 years and is lawful under the First Amendment,” Jones Day attorney Michael Carvin said. “To remove it would be a tremendous dishonor to the local men who gave their lives during The Great War.”

I warned Americans in my new book, “The Deplorables’ Guide to Making America Great Again,” that the war against religious liberty and traditional American values is far from over.

A militant group of atheists, agnostics and free-thinkers want to eradicate Christianity in the public marketplace. The only way to stop this evil scourge is for people of faith to stand together and fight back in the courts.

They alleged the cross carries “an inherently religious message and creates the unmistakable appearance of honoring only Christian servicemen.” (4)

One of the reasons our forefathers went to War against the Crown was to rid themselves from the influence of the Anglican Church. In my next post, I’ll show how that war was also a spiritaul battle.

Little wonder Washington is being attacked because he was the one who stated; “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”

Comunists are removing our Only firm basis of defense – Almighty God. Recall how Jefferson ended the Declaration – “With a firm relianace on the protection of Divine Providence…”

You want to go into fight without that Shield? I don’t.

Go back to Nehemiah 1:4 and review the remedy for us during a national crisis.

The fight will take place on our knees before God. This won’t be “a name it, claim it, prayer,” but an intense months-long struggle.
