Faith

[LarryLeidlein]

Do you feel that much of the malaise today is due to a loss of faith?  Our leaders regardless of party have shown deeds that are not in accordance with God's will. How many times must politicians steal money, pass laws that don't apply to them, enable abortion, wage class warfare, pit one group against another, do 'insider trading' or other behavior that will not just fail public acts but completely fall below standards of our creator? For this nation founded on religious freedom and faith in God, our leaders have taken this nation in the wrong direction.  What they say is correct is political correctness.  They say it is right to remove prayer from schools, to prohibit any reference to God, to 'sanitize' our city and state facilities from any religious aspect.  Was it not freedom of religion not freedom from religion that we fought for?  .Let me be clear, in my mind, it is not the politicians being the only responsible party, it is out failure to speak out and challenge this behavior for years that has seemingly made it acceptable.  How do we get out of this decline. I suggest we watch carefully and challenge such behavior when it occurs.  Could we do less at this time of Easter?  A moral people needs to stand up when immoral acts and behavior happen.  The best way going forward will be our own actions and behavior demonstrating faith.
