Eddie you indicated earlier in the thread you’re not a Christian and then you parce a NT scripture for your purpose. I’m not attacking you, just indicating there might be some irony with that. What Bret indicated that belief in a certain set of values would be in our common interest. When the Sisters of Divine Indulgence were honored at Dodger stadium you probably don’t understand why some Christians were offended. If they mocked the Koran I don’t think it would have come down quite like that.

Could someone please post the video of Reba McEntire's song "Back To God" for me and everyone to hear? I don't have the skills to do this.
This song is awesome and makes a very positive statement. I have the full gospel cd and love it. Thank You and God Bless.

I always am amazed at how this song from 1968 still hits dead on ....The "She" in the Song is the Country and the Statue of Liberty.
Once the religious, the hunted and weary Chasing the promise of freedom and hope Came to this country to build a new vision Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope Like good Christians, some would burn the witches Later some got slaves to gather riches But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light And once the ties with the crown had been broken Westward in saddle and wagon it went And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean Many the lives which had come to an end While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland We began the slaughter of the red man But still from near and far to seek America They came by thousands to court the wild And she just patiently smiled and bore a child To be their spirit and guiding light The blue and grey they stomped it They kicked it just like a dog And when the war over They stuffed it just like a hog And though the past has it's share of injustice Kind was the spirit in many a way But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping Now it's a monster and will not obey The spirit was freedom and justice And it's keepers seem generous and kind It's leaders were supposed to serve the country But now they won't pay it no mind 'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy And now their vote is a meaningless joke They babble about law and order But it's all just an echo of what they've been told Yeah, there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watchin' Our cities have turned into jungles And corruption is stranglin' the land The police force is watching the people And the people just can't understand We don't know how to mind our own business 'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us Now we are fighting a war over there No matter who's the winner We can't pay the cost 'Cause there's a monster on the loose It's got our heads into a noose And it just sits there watching America where are you now? Don't you care about your sons and daughters? Don't you know we need you now We can't fight alone against the monster Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Jerry Edmonton / John Kay
