Unrestrained Capitalism
Look around you to see
Many plagues are forming
The predictions are dire
And America is dying

We don’t worship God
Nor do we fear Him
Anything for a buck
Any business goes

Without God we’ll die
The truth is all around us
Look at what happens
When worshiping capitalism

Our Pets
To a lot of us our pets are like children
They’re basically just part of the family
They have their rights just like anyone else
And we expect certain things from them too

Like everyone else they must be reasonably clean
No pooping and peeing everywhere they please
But they’re like children so we don’t expect much
And like children they shower us with their love

Just like children they’ll be quick to forgive us
Like when we accidentally hurt them or just act stupid
But to some people an animal is just a status symbol
Their only use for it is to brag they’ve got it

But most of us know the true value of pets
They’re not just some animal hanging around
We buy them gifts and their own special treats
And play with them and talk to them too

Like people they also have personalities
And preferences for foods as well
Their play and their actions are so much like children
Is there really any wonder we love them like that

Your Life's Value
What are you worth
How you value your life
Or even just your comforts
Are you worth more then others

Will you sacrifice the weakest
Simply for your convenience
And in case you might live better
Promote killing even the unborn

Are your pleasures worth anything
No matter how many must suffer
And will you poison all future generations
Claiming your need for nuclear and oil

Satan rules over the Earth now
Spewing his lies to give us excuses
He loves when we choose his ways
Catering to everything evil and vile

But God made us the same
None better than another
And even under Satan’s rule
We still have God’s given free choice of will

America is Lost
America was built and became great by exercising God’s principles, but now the US has thrown away those principles. All things contrary to God’s ways are promoted by the politicians and the courts. The whole community used to come together to help their fellow citizens, like in gathering together for home and barn building events or to bring in the crops of anyone in need. They used to act like family as the whole community raised all the children and were not afraid to rebuke them when they were wrong. But today it is all about catering only to the selfish me because I have the right to seek all my pleasures above the rights or concerns of everyone else.

The citizens who demand the country’s legal rights are destroying the country that has given them those rights and freedoms. People from other countries come to America and then demand the country change its laws to cater to their ways because they are a minority who should have special protections and considerations that should trump the rights of all the rest of the people that make up the country. Lies and deceit are used to promote black pride as not being racism, even though white pride is recognized as the racism it is, which further divides brother against brother. Loud minorities demand we should throw away the values of the majority to cater to them including changing the meaning of family and marriage because they say we should not discriminate against them, yet their demand is that the majority be discriminated against in their family and religious values to cater to them. Instead of concentrating on our commonalities we seek only to promote our differences. Instead of a melting pot to common unity, every difference among the people is promoted. Discrimination to separate us out from each other is encouraged instead of concentrating on our commonalities to strengthen and protect our communities. We are not promoting one people indivisible under God.

America is lost. The US is actively engaged in its own destruction. Abiding by God’s principles allowed the US to become a great country and gave the people the freedoms they now have. Throwing away those principles to cater to individual selfish greed is causing the country to fail. Man made legalese deceit and pretense is the force shaping America today. Look around you at all the threats to the US and the world. Bowing down to the democracy and capitalist gods is destroying families, communities, countries and the planet as a whole. I have my democratic and capitalistic rights to seek all my pleasures and profits regardless of whether it causes large numbers of people to suffer or even to eventually die is the religion they follow. This is their freedom guaranteed by our democracy they say. Individual freedom without responsibility is the path America promotes today.

We are not acting like a people unified under a common purpose to promote a better life for us all but are instead acting like greedy selfish individuals. God warned us that if we leave his path to follow our carnal desires then we will fail, but God has no place in America today so we will continue to blindly do as we please right up until the end.

Judge Properly
Don’t you dare judge me
You don’t have the right
God said to not judge people
So you shouldn’t be judging me

I can do anything I please
No matter what you think
And you can’t say anything
Or you are wrongly judging me

Satan loves this foolish babble
Like anytime we won’t think
He loves to twist God’s words
To his benefit against man and God

But the bible demands we judge
To distinguish between right and wrong
All people’s words and actions
We are commanded to properly judge

How can we speak against evil
If we are to not judge anything
Can we choose to promote God’s ways
If we refuse to judge differences

God is the only judge of souls
And this He will properly do
But we are commanded to judge too
But only people’s actions and words
