Seven Ways Young People Can Keep Our Country from becoming Officially Screwed

Seven Ways Young People Can Keep Our Country from becoming Officially Screwed
By Doug Giles
Saturday, December 8, 2007

If America continues to

• diss God

• follow cultural coarsening Tila Tequila types

• whiz on traditional values

• weaken in our chutzpah

• stop spitting out babies

• say “muy bien” to this insane illegal immigration invasion . . .

then as a super power we will be in more trouble than a naïve, giggly good-looking drunk chick sportin’ a mini skirt at a Tommy Lee keg party. We will be toast. Period. End of story. The universe will be against us, and we don’t want to tick the universe off.

No civilization has lasted long as King of the Hill when there was a death of faith, a degeneration of morals, contempt for traditional values, a collapse of culture, a paralysis of the will, a decline in its native born population, and foreign invasion that wasn’t resisted. Google it if you don’t believe me, as the aforementioned is well known 411 regarding nations that have Gary Busey-ed their being into cheesy tourist spots.

Hey America . . . we’re not invincible. I know it looks like it, but believe it or not there have been powerful civilizations that are now a cartoon of what they use to be, and it would be the height of hubris to think that this party will never end no matter what we do.

Look, silly fool, if we forego the foundations upon which our country was built and start winging it with “progressive” principles instead of our old school traditional values, substituting God’s eternal blueprint for some secularist wizard’s ideas for a better mañana, then we officially put ourselves in line for historical butt kicking. And we have plenty of enemies hoping that we will blissfully blow off the very nitty-gritty that got us to this place of global greatness. Fo’ shizzle my nizzle.

I think God, in his crazy patience, is giving Americans (at least those who still give a flip about our country) a brief window to cowboy up and go back to the basics. If we do—great. I believe that with a lot of work we can still salvage this thing. If we don’t . . . then we shouldn’t gripe when we see our motherland turn into tripe.

In addition, I believe young people who embrace traditional values are principle players in this momentary stay of execution.

So what can the young God- and country-loving dude do? Well, you (and 45 year old guys like me) can do the opposite of what the secularist weeds want us to do, namely:

1. Embrace our faith like never before.

2. Revolt against the immoral vomit.

3. Cheer on traditional values.

4. Applaud and own our culture.

5. Quit being squishy wusses and steel up our will.

6. Spit out babies.

7. Tell foreign invaders to come here correctly or go back to their sucky countries.

To be continued . . .
 



No one can be a great thinker who does not recognize that as a thinker it is his first duty to follow his intellect to whatever conclusions it may lead. Truth gains more even by the errors of one who, with due study, and preparation, thinks for himself, than by the true opinions of those who only hold them because they do not suffer themselves to think.

1) Which faith is that?
2) And who defines what is moral? If it's the "faith" we've chosen, then that's going to vary WILDLY
3) What values are those?
4) reword, this makes no sense
5) agreed
6) Just the opposite. People who can't afford to care for children shouldn't be having children
7) Agreed

I believe the author is referring to the Judeo-Christian values the country was founded on.



I don't really agree that moral values are going to vary much on the important issues ie murder, pornography, promiscuity, etc.

Applaud = celebrate, show approval etc. Own = take ownership. Be a part of it.

Birthrate can be a problem when people who CAN afford them are not.

This was written in the Spirit of Judeo-Christian values for those who share them. If you don't, then you are not going to appreciate it. IMO

It is no secret the Global 'West', both geographically and ideologically, was founded on Judeo-Christian values.

I think this article is ridiculously pretentious. Why did this author's generation do nothing to 'morally fortify' (bull**** anyway) the generation they were living in? Morality is a dialectic; each new wave is built upon the abolished and transcended wave of the past. It's not some metaphysical dualistic entity which we access and experience. It's a cultural transmission, tangible (though sometimes spontaneous) collective governing. If the nation is this way it is your fault too.

What our country was founded on hundreds of years ago, doesn't exist anymore. The different administrations and governments that our country has seen after all these years, have varied in their views and actions. The government continues to prove that they don't give a fcuk about the US Constitution, or our rights as Americans.

Many of the "founders" of this country were not only NOT Christian, but they openly despised Christianity and the damage that its tenets do to critical thought.

Indeed, this country needs not only a political revolution, but also a moral revolution, a new morality based on love, solidarity and unity, people in modern industrial consumerist societies are becoming too greedy, too selfish, too materialist, and falling away from God's values

Too true: The liberators of this country hated elitist religion

Yeah, there are 2 types of christianity, liberation christianity and status quo, elitist, establishment christianity and religion. I believe that the liberators of this country despised elitist, status quo religions, because they are the opiums of the masses and the twisters of truth. Status quo religion can brainwash the masses and control them like in ancient monarchies and systems where the catholic church worked hand in hand with monarchies.

Also, I think that the sky isn't falling. As a Christian, I'm taught to be loyal to my fellowship, but be tolerant of all other opinion. Life is a song and it's a personal responsibility to be in tune -- whether you accept Christ or not.

good posts guys, interesting to see everybody's ideas that are to be believed to be true or valid without positive knowledge.. I think preaching to every1 that we need to all stick together in case of an alien attack would be ethical.. no matter what religion, or race just my insight..
