Jane Clayson, (famous American interviewer) on the Early Show, he asked the daughter of the famous preacher Billy Graham: "How could God let it happen the disaster of September 11 attack?" .
Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and response of wisdom that invites reflection further expand the concept.
said. "Like us, I believe God is deeply saddened by this, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government, and to get out of our lives ... being a gentleman as he is, and respect our decisions, I believe He has calmly backed, then how can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone? "Anne Graham
undoubtedly concerned legislative success a few years before had a project of Senator Madeleine Murray O'Hare who managed keep prayer in U.S. schools for "Do Not Disturb" non-believers or other denominations.
It occurs to me that in the same way you said it is better not read the Bible in school although it is a good history book, and also contains exciting stories instill good things in it says "no kill", "thou shalt not steal "," love thy neighbor as thyself. "
And we said OK.
Back in the early 60's, Dr. Benjamin Spock through its widespread (50,000,000 copies sold) "The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care" taught that we should not be severe in the upbringing of our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and could cause irreversible damage to their self-esteem.
obviously believed that the experts know what they are doing and teaching.
And we said OK.
Something that was not taken into account or is later analyzed her son, Andrew Spock, ended his days by suicide.
Then someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave rigor, just notify your parents and they decide.
school administrators instructed teachers to act passively in front of students, thing is not likely to send a parent a lawsuit or publicly denounce excesses.
And we said OK.
Then someone said "boys will always be boys and anyway they will do, let's give our sons all the condoms they want to have fun as possible without risk."
And we said OK.
Then some of our top elected officials said that no matter what we do in private as long as our work and pay taxes promptly.
We agreed with them and we said no matter what you do them (including the President) in his private life while we work and get paid for it.
And we said OK.
Then someone said "let's print magazines with naked women in provocative and humiliating positions, saying it is only a realistic and careful assessment of the beauty of the female body."
And we said OK.
And then someone took that finding further and published pictures and videos of naked children, even using the massive Internet saying: "We must appeal to the user's responsibility and freedom."
And we said OK.
Then the entertainment industry said "do TV shows and movies that promote violence and illicit sex, anyway everyone knows it's fiction, and nobody can take it seriously."
And we said OK.
Now we ask:
* Why do our children and adolescents do not "healthy entertainment" as we and our grandparents did?.
* Why is there so much contempt for others and even by his own life?
* Why so escape from reality through drugs or alcohol?
Surely if only we stop to think have the answer:
"What we sow is what we collect. " is no more complex than that.
Funny aside as easily as to God and His Word in our lives and then move on to claim that action before despise.
Much more interesting is how we are to believe the media willful and corrupt, but even consulted with the Eternal Word.
And quite curious is that I care much more do people think of these comments, that what God thinks of me.
