First, it sounds like an effort to intimidate

Bible-believing Christians. Was she saying that if you practice any one

(or more) of these things the government sees you as a threat

and may have to come in and take your children from you?

It seems to me that generally Christians are the most

loving family-oriented people in our society.

Second, what constitutes the "risk" factor that she

thinks the government would need to protect a Christian's

family from? Is it a strong belief in the Bible as an absolute

standard rather than the philosophy of humanism and hedonism?

Is it a belief that Jesus Christ, the one who has

transformed people's lives throughout history, is going to return and

judge both believers and unbelievers, rather than believing

that politicians are going to create Utopia?

Is it the practice of faithfully attending church and

Bible study instead of spending time in bars and brothels (or

making one's own house resemble them)?

Is it a Christian's tithing to his local church to help make

a difference in the community, rather than supporting

liberal political agendas (what does she expect we are not

talking about Buddhist monks here).

Is it the idea that parents would want the age-old option

of personally directing the education of their children rather

than completely forfeiting that right? Is it a person exercising

his constitutional right to bear arms rather than infringing upon

that right for all?

Is it a person not trusting in a government that has as

its main aim amassing, increasing and perpetuating power

rather than completely trusting such government to take care of

them in every way possible?

Many of the media and political elite in our society

promote the greatest virtue as tolerance and the greatest sin

as intolerance. Attorney General Janet Reno demonstrated

she was no different as she made her statements about what

she would consider those "intolerant Bible-believing Christians."

The irony is that her comments sound more intolerant

than those of any Christian I know.

Well, if you do not see my column next week you

will know that they determined I was an intolerant "threat"

and they had to take me away to protect my family and society.
