What do you think it will take for the people to finally stand up and fight for their rights?
Unfortunately for the general public it is a small leap from police state to martial law. True freedom in this day and age is a fallacy. The grip of government control is slowly being tightened and the masses seem too complacent to even notice. Too many are only concerned about their own welfare and won't take action until something specifically threatens their way of life, unfortunately by then it is usually too late. What is it going to take to wake up the people to the fact that they are willingly giving away the little freedom we have left? The revolution will be televised! The land of the free and the home of the slave.

Start a campaign to write to all politicians demanding them to act in your interest (be specific).
Get a copy of all legislation/laws passed every week and ask your representative why they voted that way.
Br pro-active with the media. Ring them, email them and demand they give equal time to other points of view.
Start a website called "Getting back our Freedom" or similar.Many are waiting for you to start. You will not be alone.
Can one person start it all off? Was Mother Teresa one person - or Martin Luther King???

I blame the Governments, they should know how to be a government and act like one. Because of them, We live in a world like today. They should know how to take care of their own state/country. It's so stupid how, Government these days just making the world less freedom. People like you, me or thousands of people out there can be great presidents/gorvernments. We can try it. But most likely 10% of us will not. I'm 14, and we are having less freedom! they're controlling us like robots. What's next? no eating on a street/ no smoking in a car, no talking in a car. i hate this. We should be controlled with respect.

I agree
this country is basically conservative to middle of the road
being led by liberal media on everything from life style to politics is ridiculous
it's about time we show this country that we won't tollerate the waste that fills our ears on the idiot box
good question

Unfortunately you are correct. The sad part, is that many Christians are still waiting for the Anti-Christ, and we've created it. The Governments of the world of men.
When this country was founded, men were tired of British rules and taxes. So they left and with Gods help they built this country. But God has left this country to men. All God wanted was a country to where ones religious freedom would prevail. What is so funny, is now in our time, even our own religious freedom is being questioned, ridiculed and is almost completely out of our society, because of the separation of Church and State.
When people began years ago and stopped saying the pledge of Aligeance in school, it was just the beginning of our downfall.
You see this government was established to be controlled by the people, isn't it amazing how things have reversed and now the Government controls the people. That is how Satan works. He's so slick, all people who take sides against each other, is exactly what Satan cherishes.
What's that saying, A house divided will not stand, well it's been divided ever since the creation of this government, was established. They came together as one in ships, but once they saw what they had done, power, manipulatiion, greed and such became a way of life. All we've been able to do, is modernize the greed, give laws, which slowly take away and bind us from thinking, so we don't have to worry what is right or wrong. The more laws we make the further from God we are becoming.
Is there going to be a civil war? Could be, but I have a feeling something worse than that will take place first. The presidential race we have today, is just a beginning. The two opponents, running for President, are being played by the media depending on who owns the media, as either bad or worse for us.
I'm glad I don't vote. And if this Government were to take an honest poll, they would see that the majority of Americans don't vote. You may get mad because you think I and others who don't vote don't care. Well, you're right and you're wrong. All I care about is doing Gods work and informing the people of my views, but the world, cares about as much of me, as I do them.
I have asked this questions to a few Bishops, what would Jesus Do. They all say the same thing. Jesus would be first in line to vote.
I say, they are wrong. Jesus could care less, because his Fathers work is much more important, than the worlds work. In 1 Corinthians; Chapter 3; 18-19. God explains his views of the world as is also in ! John, Chapter 2; 15-16.
1 Corinthians: 18. Let no man decieve himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in the world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
What is being said, there is God let's man build their own world and live in it, but when he comes, they will see how foolish they really are in God, for God would not of built this Government, we live in, for it is doomed for destruction. Because men never truly follow God, but always do different than what God asks them to do.
1 John; 15. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
I know God is coming to rid the world of evil, and the righteous shall be left behind. How or what is going to be the deciding factor on who is following the Anti-Christ, and who follows Christ? When is he coming? Only God knows, but I as many feel he's not to far away.
I have faith in God and not men. God said, he shall watch over his people through all the hard times that's coming. Look at all the destruction in the United States because of the weather. Don't tell me, the weather is because of Global Warming and all the car emissions.
Jesus did say, "Their lips say they love me, yet their hearts are somewhere else."
Think about what I've said, and ask yourself do you believe if Jesus walked the earth today, would he vote? Remember, the only time Jesus became upset, is when he removed the money changers from the Temple man had built to honor his Father, but even that today is not much better than it was in Christ's time.
Whoever God sends my way, throughout the turmoil which is about to take over this world, I shall feed, be nice and house or give shelter to whoever God sends my way. I will not be standing with any rifle or gun by my side, for my faith is in God and not man. God said, he will protect his people, and I'm glad, at this time, I'm considered one of his people, though you may object, which is your free agency and right as a human being. A right given by God, and not by men who give and take as they feel is necessary for the better of all, but mainly themselves.
Worldly people are preparing to fight, but Gods people are preparing for his return and protection. How are you preparing for what's ahead?
God bless you.

we have too many distractions to even know all of this. even in the days of Noah there were distractions. people are more focused on themselves along with money sex and power and possesions and fame.

Its all about the food.
If people aren't eating, they get revolutionary ideas.
