The Constitution, Goverment, War, and Security

This will probably be the shortest blog post that I have done on this site.  I received an Easter email from a good friend and he describes on his blog the exact things I have been thinking recently pertaining to Government, Freedom, Guarantees of the Constitution, War, and Security.  His blog is here.  I would strongly suggest that you read it and ponder the ideas and thoughts that are there.


I think I have indicated that I have a good friend who is a Glenn Beck fan.  I have been watching Glenn's show on Fox News for the last couple of weeks.  It is my opinion that Glenn Beck is ahead of his time.  He has information, that while requiring faith to believe, makes a lot of sense.  It is scary information.  Information about problems with this world and our country.  It is information that the world is not ready for.  It is a lot like when new technology is introduced that is decades ahead of its time, people will not embrace it.  At least not right off.






There is an excellent book called The Myths of Innovation by Scott Berkun.  In it he talks about how many ideas that were destined to change the world, were revealed to the world before the world was ready for them.  Excellent book!  Well worth the read.

Back to Glenn Beck.  The subject matter and ideas he has been sharing on his TV show are so shocking that for the most part his audience has shut down.  His advertisers have pulled away, all except the ones for gold and food storage.  Glenn Beck predicts an end to our world.  And while the Bible is in harmony with this idea, the world is not.  Glenn Beck is loosing his show on Fox News basically because of loss of advertisers.  He is loosing advertisers because of his forward-thinking ideas.  Ideas that the world is not ready for.

All that I can say and hope for is that the government of the United States of America will uphold and defend the Constitution.  This is the document that formed our country in the first place.  It directs how the country should be run.  It is an amazing project plan for an amazing country!

Till next time,
Bill
