Im not celebrating. Your article brought it up. Again. You have some weird obsessions but thank God we have the freedom for you to google whatever you want.
Yes you are by trying to run down those who speak out against sin. In addition, you seem to be proud of your sinning. That is not the Christian way. Celebrating freedom to sin does not honor God.


He's a sinner! And what do we do with sinners?

Do you really watch that nonsense? Is that why you keep posting pictures from it?

Very good, communal shame and punishment over consuming subversive literature is part of the system. You're going to be a great member of the Party!

Indeed he does. Part of his Obama era Title IX university bureaucrat officer training. They use the same playbook.

Yeah, fighting for equal rights for women is totally in the same playbook as forbidding access to education and independence due to mandated gender roles.

Horrible idea. Why would a parent want to delay manhood? A boy become a man when he can take care of himself. The more he provides for the more manly he is. Parents that treat their offspring like they are handicapped and cant take care of themselves do more damage than harm. Raise you son to be a man and when he graduates from high school he should be ready for life. Parents delay manhood so they will maintain control over their child. Its not good for either of them in the long run. Young men should be able to take care of themselves. One of the problems in America (and other cultures too) is we have too many 20+ year old boys still sucking on the family teat and too much free time because they dont have to work. Mommy and daddy pay for their housing, their food, their transportation and their education. The boy child has too much time on his hands when he should be working.

My kids were grown at 18 and been on their own ever since. They all have great educations and live productive lives. They are raiding their children to be independent healthy young adults also.


Historically, this was how things were done and is still done in Italy and elsewhere. It is an illusion that someone takes care of himself/herself. We are all interconnected and receive help. And if the person is taking on a lot of sinning as part of living independently, the risks exceed the perceived rewards.

Your criticism of young men is somewhat misplaced. Young men don't have the same opportunities of past generations thanks to bad decisions made by those past generations.
I understand and respect the OP POV, but it wouldn't be my choice. I see that it would be an improvement for some men.

What woman in her right mind would marry a 20-something dude who thinks God has ordained that his mom mom should be his cook and maid until his wife takes over that unpaid job along with her other 'duties"
Many western women would not. But a good percentage of western women have a messed up outlook in their 20s that causes crises in their 30s..

These days sin is celebrated where they give sinners a bigger platform to showcase their "freedom." It would be nice if we discouraged sin again.

For sure! Let's first start by discouraging those wicked tongues from spreading sedition against the Lord. Under His eye!

At 18 every kid in America needs to be in a structured program that includes one of the following:

1. Enrolled and attending college
2. Enrolled and attending junior college
3. Enrolled and attending an accredited trade school
4. Gainfully employed at a company where they put in 40 hours of work per week
5. Enrolled in the US Military for at least a 24 to 36 month period
6. Enrolled in a CCC type program in their respective states building and refurbishing infrastructure while living in mobile home/condos that follow the work

Of course if they did not graduate from high school they MUST go back and secure their GED. Not any online BS. They need to be in a classroom setting with other students developing social skills and being observed for social problems.

If they don't have a job by the time they are 22-24 then turn them loose to their parents. Under these restrictions:

1. Parents must accept full responsibility for the kids while they live with their parents
2. Kids are not allowed to take on any debt - no cell phones, no credit cards, etc.
3. Parents may co-sign for debt but all accounts would be flagged for "dead beat" kids and any missed payments mean immediate cancellation of account and immediate termination of services or repossession of item with balance due immediately
4. Arrests or convictions while living with parents carry a double or harsher sentence
5. Nightly curfew in affect for kids caught out after certain hours

I thought about the role of government in this and figure it would be worth it in the long run. You could hopefully kill off some worthless programs that are already fleecing America.

That's quite the laundry list of government regulation you've put there. Not sure they're going to fit in our free society. But with authoritarian Trumpism on the rise there may yet be hope for you!

Of course you do, conservatives have a come to Jesus moment on how great big government is once they're the ones in power.

Unfortunately we have come to a fork in the road for our country and to get us back on the track that liberalism knocked us off of, we have to bite the bullet and do some drastic house cleaning.

It won't be pretty and there will be crying and gnashing of teeth from the loony left but we have to ***** slap the h#ll out of our youth.

This is either the biggest govt jobs and education program ever ever or life under the Taliban, depending on how you pay for it and enforce it. Thanks to Vietnam souring folks on a draft, we don't even require military service. How do you pass this and how do you pay for it?

And what do you tell the credit card and cell phone cos when they start yelping about regs that interfere with the free market?

These are the brown-shirts I keep reading about accosting diners trying to enjoy a meal on outdoor patios, marching through nice & peaceful neighborhoods yelling on bullhorns that the residents don't belong there and generally rioting, setting fires and disrupting the peace?

Can't be.

These here in the good ole USA causing the problems are disheveled, grungy, unclean, wearing rag-tag backpacks, black helmets armed with baseball bats, fireworks, cussing like the worst sailors to little old harmless people, blocking traffic, burning things and generally acting like fools.

Therein lies the problem. Until our country decides to give itself a huge enema like I described you can write off our future. We have become a nation of entitled *****-willows leeching off of parents, not having any drive or goals, holding out hands for freebies, gang-banging, no manners, horrible language, tattooed up, debt-ridden and lazy.

We will know the outcome come November 4.

With a strong voluntary social organization like the Christian church (and Jewish Synagogues) in place, advancing personal responsibility, responsibilities to God and work ethic, all this is unnecessary. We simply need to stop assaulting the Christian church (and Jewish synagogues) at every turn.

Our nation (and its freedom) was built for and by a religious people. It is entirely unsuitable to a dominant left.
