Two days ago, the church gave me a wonderful retirement luncheon. I taught the adults, then had a chance to preach a sermon on Thanksgiving. Yes, Thanksgiving. I not the city of Seattle outlawed Thanksgiving because it might offend Native Americans. Liberals do that type of ridiculous stuff because they do not understand the culture of real American life, history or tradition. And they don't seem very thankful for America and its more than 200 years of liberty, freedom and opportunity. Sad but true. Blaming American or God or Bush or Reagan or Christians or Conservatives seem to be the motto of liberalism . Never thanking the God of the Judeo-Christian Heritage and Bible for making this nation special. From the very start, this nation was really the City set on a Hill. It was to be a LIght to the world. It was the New Israel. Liberals hate that type of stuff. They want socialism, pacifist ideas for this nation. That was not the idea of the Founders, the Mayflower Compact, and the early religious groups that came here for the right to worship and not have government interfere with them. My whole sermon was on what we should be thankful for and how it applies to everyday life. Think house, family, work, church, beauty of the USA, democracy, our military, our whole life-style. Think of freedoms no other nation has. Think of the economic strength of this people which makes our nation strong. Sure we have problems, cultural evil and socialism running rampant in some areas but there are also wonderful stories of achievement, love, grace, joy, and contributions from people , ideas, business inventions, science, health whatever. So before you watch the Dallas football game, eat turkey, thank God you live in America. Stop whining. I have been round the globe. I saw people in Rio living in drain pipes. The poorest American eats, has a TV and even gets food stamps. And in reality, we all go to the hospital even if it is bankrupting other hard working tax payers. So stop complaining about the USA and thank God we have what we have.
