Well folks, I’m finally finished with school and in for a
break now. In the meantime, much has happened, although most of the things
that have happened are insignificant…so I won’t belabor the fact.
On to the topic at hand … a few thoughts that were started
by a post from Caleb,
my fellow blogger over at Conservative
Textbook. Caleb discussed the outrageous activities of one Prof.
John Daly (actually, now
newly-resigned Prof. Daly). After reading a bit about this guy, and
comparing him to our very own CU professor Ward Churchill, a question came to
mind: What should be done with these chaps?
I’m serious: what really should be done with these
professors? Obviously, many people don’t like them. They make the news
often because of their radical, crazy beliefs. Their “peers” (fellow
fascists) come out and defend their unreasonable talk by throwing up the
all-encompassing smoke screen of the First Amendment. In the end, sooner or
later, people forget about them, and they go back to their normal lives,
teaching communism and other radical anti-American ideas. This spring,
when I was working as an aide for Colorado
Rep. Matt Knoedler, I heard a number of comments by legislators about
possibly cutting funds to CU, calling for CU to fire old Ward, etc, etc.Get the
old government in there and smash a few things up. That’ll teach them to
talk down the good ‘ol USA!!
While the idea of government stepping in and “fixing” the
matter is plausible, especially when government school professors are the
creeps in question, I think there is a different way to solve the matter. In
essence, I’d like to go about another way. Here’s why: If we the people
start calling for our government to fix problems, we will get ourselves more
government than we really want. Let me explain. How do governing
officials fix things? By writing laws. Yes, the judges don’t write
laws, but they have effectively taken upon themselves to dictate what’s law or
not, so that counts. Anyway, if you ask the government to step in and fix
each little situation that the American people does not like, you may find life
getting worse and worse for the average individual. That, and it’s
virtually impossible to kick communist, islamofacist profs out of the schools
when the Dems are in charge (like in Colorado, for instance).
So, what’s my solution? Well, I’ll answer that with a
question: DO the American people think this is such a problem? Seriously,
if America as a country held strongly to the beliefs upon which we were founded
and understood the responsibilities that accompany the rights we hold, would
THEY, as Americans, tolerate this kind of junk coming out of our higher
education classrooms, where the supposed “future of America” is learning how to
live, work, and think? I say no. I think we are deceiving
ourselves. We hear about incidents with folks like Prof. Daly and Prof.
Churchill, and we say, “Eeww, yuk! Why am I paying my tax money for him to
spew all that nonsense?” Yet, what do we do about it? We call for the
money we gave to the government to be spent some other way. Listen up,
folks! It’s the government’s money now. They can do with it AS THEY
PLEASE, and when politicians come down to spending the money…well, you know all
about politicians and money.
Anyway, our way of showing that we strongly disagree with
these whacked-out professors is to tell our government that we want better
teachers because we can’t tolerate that stuff coming out of our
universities. Why not do something stronger. I believe that if the
American people really acted and lived on principles and standards, they would
put Ward Churchill and others OUT OF BUSINESS by not enrolling for their
classes. In essence, boycott the junk. The way to kill a bad professor
is to stop feeding them fat, healthy American students. And I hear people
out there saying, “Well wait, Johnson!You can’t do that! The class
is required for my degree!” Hah! Then DON’T GO TO THE
COLLEGE. “But, but, other people will still go to the
professor’s classes!” Yes, but what will they turn into? Honest,
successful, law-abiding, hard-working, patriotic Americans? I doubt
it. Let’s fix the problem by keeping our money and our minds away from the
junk in college and really focusing on finding new ways to get our educations
without polluting our minds and supporting the junkie professors.
I know this method works: why, because the most successful
implementation of it is called HOME SCHOOLING. If we can do it through
high-school, why not keep it up through college? Yes, I know your mom
can’t teach you the high level college science and math classes, but you can
use other methods. For starters, take a look at doing CLEP
tests for a lot of the credit and applying to Thomas
Edison State College. Thomas Edison allows you to create a hybrid degree by
granting credit for everything from classes you took at your community college
to your experience at a great internship. I’d recommend getting the hard
stuff (science, math, etc) out of the way in a community college or something
and then figuring out your religious and political beliefs on your own and
testing out (CLEP, etc) of those philosophy, political science, psychology, and
religion classes.
Okay, so, let’s say we get our piece of the Americans under
control and holding strong, principled beliefs. Good. Now what about
the rest of the nation? Well, here’s my radical idea. Agree\disagree
if you like, I don’t care. I believe that America was founded on
Christian principles, and that it’s laws were written for those who live by
standards that are strongly based on God’s Word. John Adams said it
best:
“We have no government armed with power capable of
contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice,
ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our
Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for
a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any
other.”
So anyway, my solution is really to go out and witness the
Gospel of Jesus Christ (Christianity) to our fellow Americans, to change their
hearts. Yes, I seriously mean that. You can work all you want and try to get a
good guy into office, but his job is to represent the people.If the people
he is representing want a country where immorality has free reign, where God is
mocked, where the rich history of our forefathers is throw to the dust, and
where child sacrifice (abortion, literal rampant sacrifice of the lives of
babies to the false religion of humanism) is rampant, then your candidate will
probably not hold office very long, much less get elected in the first
place. Just as a warning, when a society is run by sin and immorality,
that society will be destroyed.
Take a look at the ancient cultures that used to
be in Central America. The Mayans and the Aztecs, the Incas and
others: they were amazingly advanced in science, math, and
technology. As we know, their architectural skills were
outstanding. Yet look at this: they turned from God (yes, the world has
descended from the 8 people who got off Noah’s Ark), and created for themselves
a lifestyle of wicked immorality and worship of the earth and their own
gods. They built their society around sacrifices: sacrificing their
children to pagan gods in the most horrific manners. And is there one
Aztec or Mayan person around today? No! They were completely wiped
off the face of the earth. Yes, we know from history that they were killed
by the diseases brought by Europeans, but what is that but the Providence of
God bringing judgment upon a wicked, wicked nation?
So there you have it: my idea for political revival
in America. It’s basically spiritual revival. Whew! This
has been a long post. Yeah, it probably sounded like a bunch of rambling…
that’s what it was. I’ll probably have more to say later. In the
meantime, I’m currently on a business trip to Florida (lucky me), so
my posting may be sporadic as usual (what a surprise!). Have fun and go
think about some of this stuff.
