Freedom of religion not freedom from religion

This is where I live now and I am ashamed of some of the people in my community who think they are doing others a favor by complaining about this coach. Freedom of Religion, if you are offended by seeing someone praying on the field then leave. This coach was not preaching or forcing his views on God on anyone so why should atheists be able to force their views on us. This coach was exercising his right so quit trying to take it away because you do not agree.
Are atheists afraid that if they see someone praying their world will come to an end in a flaming oblivion? If so anytime a atheist starts spouting of I will start praying, I am talking on knees head bowed honest prayer. If they keep on rattling on I will keep praying, I guarantee they will bust a blood vessel before my knees give out!

Check your baggage with the Lord!

There are times in life where you wonder if you are doing right in your everyday life or you feel like you have lost the spirit. I feel this way at times and worry if I maybe backsliding. After some thought I have determined that just because you may not feel like your are doing the Lord's will by performing some action one may associate with being a Christian like spreading the Gospel or helping other directly that you are doing God's Will if you are trying to lead a good life and resist temptation to sin. Just by living a simple life without sinning you set an example for others. Not only this but you ease your own burden by not taking on more sin. You sin when you do something wrong in the eyes of the Lord or man you have to live with consequences and the guilt that eats at you.
Now consider that by living a good uncomplicated life you put less of a burden on Christ who died for our sins. If you look at your sin as a weight to be carried by
another person the less you sin the less they have to carry. How great full would that person be if you kept that load light? Probably very great full and would be appreciative that you were thinking of them. Christ loves it when we do our utmost to keep his load light because it shows we are thinking of him and we know he is our savior. I am not saying to keep it light because Christ cannot carry the load, he can carry any and everything, I am saying keep the load light because it shows you have accepted him as your savior. Don't worry about coming to Jesus with a heavy load of sin luggage from your past, he will gladly accept it and take the burden from you. What does he want in return? Your love and you can show that by trying your best not to add more sin luggage to the load. Oh yeah, unlike airlines the Lord does not charge you for checked baggage.

You may not agree but sometimes things require troops on the ground.

I saw the picture of a toddler who drowned when his family tried fleeing the conflict in Syria by boat. It is pure tragic and very stupid this situation over there led to this. A situation so bad people risk crossing the Mediterranean in overcrowded boats to escape. Most of the blame can fall on ISIS and the Syrian government, but a bit of that blame can fall on world leaders who say they want to help end this but in reality have no clue how or choose not to follow the advice given to the by military advisors.
One of those is our own President. President Obama's current policy / strategy of using air strikes and training local fighters to deal with the problem is flawed, and greatly so. The first problem is knowing your friends and allies. We do not know this because many over there tend to change allegiances depending on what they can gain personally. Some of the fighters we train defect to the other side and use tactics they learned against us or our allies. Supplying weapons over their is like issuing a convicted murder a pistol after he is released on parole. And somehow I think the air strikes are being run too much the way some were during Vietnam. Never handcuff your forces by running a war based on politics, it does not work. Never fight over the same territory twice, always fight to win, but our allies keep gaining and losing ground over and over.
This has turned into a humanitarian crisis because of the lack of resolve to put an end to it. It is political posturing by countries and leaders where nothing is done. Have we not learned from history that you cannot win a war with air power alone. Air power is a tool to be used to further a strategy it has to be supplemented with a solid ground component to work.
Using superior air power to supplement a weak disorganized ground force is a waste of lives, both soldiers and citizens, and taxpayers dollars.
You want to end this crisis? Then bomb and sweep, and I don't mean with a small whisk broom but a full size push all the crap out of the way push broom composed of the U.S Army and Marine Corp.
Now I am not one to push for war but I know sometimes to set the world right you have to do what you got to do and when you do it don't do it halfway, you go full bore until the bad guys can't fight no more!
