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

Eddie, Since your not a Christian the post wasn't for you. It was for the Christians that need to pray at this time, Really doesn't matter right now how we pray it's as long as we do! God Bless!!

Amen

So, if you pray, those that have different feelings, beliefs, thoughts, way of life, what should be the result for those that for those that have contrary beliefs etc.....?

For there was some evil thoughts bantered about on this page.

People know it is a sin to wish for vile actions against their fellow man.
( for those that subscribe to religion)

Thoughts, ........

Not sure what you're asking? But people that have contrary thoughts can do whatever makes them feel good. That's what most of society is doing now anyway. Relying on their feelings instead of the truth. We can't rely on our feelings because feelings change. The truth will always be the truth.

Yes, there have been evil thoughts and wishes for vile actions on the page and in the news and in our society everyday, that's because non of us are perfect and all fall short of what God intended us to be. So that's why He sent His perfect sinless Son Jesus to be tortured and killed on a cross to take our place. We should be hanging there not Him. So all He asks us to do is believe that He sent His son to die and in our place and ask for forgiveness for our sins and follow Him. It's a relationship with our creator not a religion.

AMEN brother. There are many religious leaders/people that are being religious for all the wrong reasons.

There is a saying that He who dies with the most toys wins - well I have news for you - He who dies with the most toys still dies.

He or she who believes in and gives their life to Jesus Christ will die a physical death here on Earth, but also, have eternal life and be with their Lord and Saviour FOREVER. How great will that be!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also there are other views of religious beliefs. there are other religions.

What man or woman has clairvoyance to interpret which teaching of their holy book is truly right .

So that they can impose their beliefs on others that don't have the same or opposing beliefs or no belief in the Absolute Being.

This nation was founded on the principal of no government sanctioned religion.

U do have the freedom of religion, worship, celebrate, immerse yourself in all its doctrine.

Just leave other that do not have your beliefs out of it and keep it out of government, public schools and public life.

Sure he gave us free will to make our choices and we have to live with those choices. We can do anything we want. He gives us a choice. We are either with Him or against Him, there is no middle ground.

There are no other religions that God made Himself human and took our punishment when he was sinless.

Just like you and your kind do not have the freedom to push your transgender perversions on people including children that I and the majority will never approve of it period. I don't care what these weirdos do, but I will fight to keep it out of schools and the public square.
