It has been a while.<BR/><BR/>It would have been much better had such an article never been necessary of being written. <BR/><BR/>But, so many people forget about the inherent evil found in man. They take it personally and refuse to accept the fact. <BR/><BR/>This condition, is what I'm convinced is the direct contributor to the willful ignorance so prevalent today. It is a failure to acknowledge the Truth. And in effect calls The Lord Himself a liar. For He did say; <BR/><BR/>"If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?" - Matthew 7:11<BR/><BR/>And this through no fault of our own. Rather we are born into it, due to the transgression of Adam and Eve. It's in the blood. And one won't seek a cure, if one refuses to admit that they are sick.<BR/><BR/>The Framers of the Constitution were acutely aware of the true state of nature of man. And implanted the means of keeping it in check. We relinquish it at our own peril.<BR/><BR/>That many did not learn this crucial lesson from Hitler, Mao and Stalin. Is amazing to me.<BR/><BR/>Take it easy, Jay!E.

The Columbine...David,<BR/><BR/>You hit the nail on the head. The Columbine shooting was a tragedy, and far too many people want to point out the REAL truth behind the entire mess.<BR/><BR/>Good job.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15827519414962524428noreply@blogger.com
