Halt U.S. decline by following Golden Rule

In the past, the world respected and looked up to the U.S. because we stood up for real freedom with a true stance of taking the high moral ground.

In the last 40 years, we have seen this country decline on all fronts. Now we live in Bizzaro World! Common sense is not so common and the love of God has been thrown out the door to be devoured by those who live amoral lives.

Real freedom and peace grows when we the people live by the rules of God! First, we must all give God his due respect. Integrity is important. Stop lying, cheating, stealing and killing. Stop aborting our future. Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.

These rules of freedom are not always easy to follow, especially in today's society, but if everybody would try every day to put their trust in God the benefits would be peace and forgiveness, less depression, better health, love of neighbor, integrity, honor in truth, better government with less interference and happiness.

The results would give back a renewed spirit and self-respect for us and the country as a whole. It's a commitment. Can we do it? Yes we can. It's up to all of us.

In God we trust,
