Soap Box Archives 'Tis the Season It's just about as predictable as the changing of the seasons. Every year as the Christmas decorations get taken out of the attic and dusted off, here come the ACLU and their assorted boo birds screaming about how a nativity scene in a public place is a violation of the separation of church and state. First of all the phrase "separation of church and state" didn't come from the constitution or any of the other federal papers our founders wrote and ratified but from a personal letter written by Thomas Jefferson and taken totally out of context by the Grinches at the American Civil Liberties Union. By no stretch of the imagination did our forefathers intend for us to abandon the public celebration of Christmas, in fact the very opposite is true and the ACLU knows it. They're just so intent on advancing their Godless agenda they really don't care what the founders of this nation intended just so long as they can get some left-leaning judge to go along with them. It doesn't bother these people for anyone to celebrate any other religious holiday publically and would probably be the first to come to the defense of any other faith that was denied public religious displays. What if Muslim women were told they couldn't wear their long dresses and headscarves or the Sikhs were told they couldn't wear their turbans in public and they are public displays of religion? What side of that argument do you think the ACLU would land on? There's just something about Christianity that drives these poor misguided barristers crazy. If, as the atheists they represent say, there is no God, what difference does it make if displays honoring His Son are seen in public. If there is no God, there is nothing to fear from the influence of these outward manifestations of Christian beliefs. What harm would a manger scene displayed on the courthouse lawn possibly do? Is it going to shake the foundation of America? Is it going to shatter life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Will it destroy the land of the free and the home of the brave? What does the left fear so desperately about Christmas? That's simple. Satan has always been an enemy of Jesus Christ and all those who follow him. Now hold on cherry pickers, am I saying that the ACLU is a satanic organization? No, I am not. Am I saying that their fanatical fight against Christianity advances the devil's agenda? Absolutely. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free" and the truth is that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. The truth is that He brought salvation to the world, the truth is that He will be returning to Earth someday to claim His rightful place. And the truth is that there's not one blessed thing the ACLU can do about it. And along with everybody else ever born, their knees shall bow and their tongues will confess something that they have denied for years. That Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords to the glory of God. One of these days every atheist, every agnostic and oh yes, every ACLU member will stand face to face with the same Christ they fight so hard to keep out of public life in America. And remember guys, when you plead your last case there is no appeal and the judgment is final. As in eternal. Think about it. Hey everybody, Merry Christmas!!! I'm going to send a Christmas card to the ACLU this year. If you'd like to join me the address is: ACLU What do you think? Pray for our troops, and for our country God Bless America Charlie Daniels
