I’m having trouble doing two things (blogs) at once. And though I do appreciate the readership here at GatePost, I’m trying not to feel guilty about the infrequency. The battle for LIFE in South Dakota has begun again and my free-time is mainly focused there. If you miss regular posting here from me you can read the latest from me on my LIFE blog – voicescarryblog.com.
Here are three recent but very important posts that you many find interesting.
Planned Parenthood Gets Religion
Let’s have FUN kicking off our Campaign to Kill
More “Fun” with South Dakota Planned Parenthood’s new slogan – Let Families Decide
My son Caleb put up a nice little pic on his blog that you may appreciate. He gets to vote this year for the first time. You’ll note he’s starting to lean toward one side : ) Caleb has some strong views. I don’t know where he got this from. We move him to KC for school NEXT WEEK – I’m not sure how I feel about this chapter of life coming to a close.
For a few months my son Thomas and I have been looking for a Mustang ($3-4K range) so he can drive to school this fall. He’s pretty set on a Mustang and has been for a while. He’s got some pics on his blog of one that we found ($2K over budget). I know he’d appreciate the traffic on his blog – so be sure to check it out. He finds blogging discouraging because “nobody reads his.” He’d even more appreciate others joining him fasting and praying for this extra “miracle money” to somehow appear so he can buy this car. He knows we won’t be making a covenant with a creditor.
Funny story… I told him the only thing I don’t like about him getting a hot car like this is that he’d get into popularity/girls and his relationship with God would really suffer. He said, “no, if he had this car it would really help his relationship with God because he’d wake up every day praising God and drive down the road with praise music everywhere he went.”

It seems that we can finally agree on a few things. I rejoiced to hear about the decision in South Dakota. Thank God for that!

I hear the Lord saying, “Let the boy have the car!” Hey, if I had a Mustang when I was in high school, I would have been really thrilled. I got to drive a boy’s Camero about 15 feet in the school parking lot once to move it out of the way so I could go home after school. Back in those days (makes me sound REALLY old! ha!), a Camero was a really fancy car. There was no comparison to my army green 1970 Plymouth Bel Aire, AKA “The Bomb,” though, which had a hole in the back fender and more dents than a cow could count. I only put two of those dents in the car one was from backing into a classmate’s car and the other was going into the ditch after sliding off the road in the winter time on the way to school. The hole came from my sister when she backed over the light pole in our parents’ yard. Oooh! That didn’t make mom very happy. All in all, “The Bomb” was a pretty exciting car. The steering wheel went around and around, we could take the key out of the ignition and still drive, and people sitting in the back enjoyed the trampoline springs in the seats. AM radio was the norm and if you could tune in a station without static, it made your classmates jealous. Back then, an antennae was required to get an AM station. The antennae flew off the car when I was driving home from school one day, so Dad took a coat hanger, straightened it out, and stuck it in the hole where the original antennae had been. What a genius idea, Dad! It only worked for about a week.
Ahhh, the memories!

Educated Christian
Have you heard of the separation between church and state? Look at other issues such as war and poverty. You shouldn’t be proud that you brainwashed your son. Your church pushes me further away from religion.

Educated – your name is ironic to me because being “educated” you certainly know there is no mention of separation of church and state in the Constitution. Or were you educated in the revisionism of today’s university history courses. I was. I had to unlearn what they taught and read the Founders myself.
Since govt. is WE the people and the church is not a building but also people – that means WE are simultaneously the government and the church at the same time. How do you separate a person? The separation of church and state is an impossibility and you are using it to mean the very opposite of what Jefferson meant the phrase to mean. So, really everyone, even secularists, enter the political arena operating from a religious worldview or framework. The only question is whose worldview will win out in the democratic process. Somebody’s moral agenda will shape our nation, the only question is whose. I’d rather the Christian worldview remain at the foundation of our nation and not see it supplated by Islam or something else.
We are looking at poverty – we believe in just war – that it’s immoral for us to stand by and let Saddam rape and kill 60,000 kurds. You are not getting the full story on the success of this war from the MSM. If you are a pacifist Christian I fully respect that and honor your interpretation of the Scripture to think that way. I think it’s a misinterpretation but we can disagree. I will point out that pacifists are only free to be pacifists if someone else is willing to die for that freedom.
My son isn’t brainwashed – but many young people today are brainwashed with a humanistic worldview. He came to his conclusions about Obama on his own. He’s been a news junky since age 10. I have to tone him down most of the time. Believe me, I’m not encouraging his political views. It’s a democracy though remember and all ideas are welcome in the dialog.
I hope you do steer clear of “religion” – it’s not the same as Jesus and the Bible. I hope you pursue Jesus. He loves you. Blessings to you.

Disappointed – I’ll just pulled your two comments – way unfair. Cult? Don’t allow questioning? I’d spit on Clinton? You have no idea how off you are on all these accusations. Believe what you want, don’t project unfair accusations on me. Have a good life.

Hi. I on numerous occasions scan this forum. This is the oldest period undisputed to ask a ridiculous.
How numberless in this forum are references progressive behind, artful users?
Can I depute all the communication that there is?

What would probably be great about this website is if perhaps you had the ability to sign up to discussions which you create; Is this realistic?
