Have you ever read the oath taken to become a naturalized citizen of the United States? It is likely you were required to read it if you are old enough. We used to have to study, learn, and somewhat understand things like the Constitution, and the basics of national and state government, to receive a diploma from 8th grade and high school. I'm not sure if you have to know or understand very much at all, currently. 

The following is the oath that one must recite in the final phase of becoming a naturalized citizen of our country, found HERE. Also included is the simple outline of the meaning of the various statements and phrases found in the oath. 

“Naturalization Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America”

Oath

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

Some songs fill the room. Then some songs somehow find broken places inside a soul. Today, let's address songs that find broken places inside the soul.   

Recently, I discovered a writing about Annie Herring, one of the first musical artists to start CCM. CCM stands for Contemporary Christian Music. She is the composer and singer for the 2nd Chapter of Acts group, along with her sister and brother. The writing is called Annie Herring: The Woman Who Heard Heaven in an Old Piano.

The midterm elections are fast approaching, and Republicans are clinging to slim majorities in both houses of Congress. To retain control, Republicans must overcome the historical advantages that favor the Democratic Party. The party not in control of the White House and Congress usually performs well in midterm elections as voters tend to look for “change.” In this election year, the “change” the Democrats are offering is socialism, which should be rejected by most voters.  

American lament: can a nation in moral decline also vote itself into oblivion?

Ah, there's the question. And the simplest, straightest answer is the most obvious. Since everything in life is the outcome of choices for individuals, great nations, and for average nations, for falling nations, the answer is always yes, based on the choices their people make.  

They held “No Kings” rallies against President Trump, but a new king, Chief Justice John Roberts, has taken power over the elected President of the United States. Incredibly, on the eve of July 4^th, America’s 250^th anniversary, Republican Chief Justice John Roberts and Republican Amy Coney Barrett gave American citizenship to millions of children of illegal aliens and products of Communist Chinese birth tourism in the Birthright Citizenship case. The decision “devalues” American citizenship, noted conservative Justice Clarence Thomas in his powerful dissent.  

Did he or didn’t he? Without body camera evidence, this latest killing incident is another case of “He said, but he said,” regarding the actions of illegal immigrants and ICE agents. Let’s just lay out the facts as we know them. Lorenzo Salgado, an immigrant from Mexico who had lived in the U.S. for 35 years, ran a construction business and was, by all accounts, a positive contributor to his community.  

They call themselves Democratic Socialists, but there is no such thing. Democracy and Socialism are polar opposites, and you are either one or the other - you can't be both. In a democracy, you make your own choices; but under Socialism, the State will make your choices for you, whether you like it or not. A Democratic Socialist is a socialist pretending to be a Democrat. Their purpose is the destruction of all other political parties, leaving the Socialists running a single-party government like they have in California.
