Faith Made America Strong

-



"Our party cannot be all things to all people. It can't be.
Our loudest opponents on the left are never going to like us
so let's stop trying to curry favor with them." Rick Perry

Jefferson penned the opening words in the Declaration of Independence to inspire opposition to the political belief of the era: The Divine Right of Kings;  

We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty
and the pursuit of Happiness -

...and it would appear that a certain faction would like for us to return to a time when the populace will be once again governed by the government  (A Christian government) Will the President of a Christian Nation rule by and through divine right? When a man such as Rick Perry states that "as President, I will end Obama's war on religion," I am frightend. His message was openly anti-gay, unapologeticlly divisive and sounded Crusade inspired. 

When Jesus begins to wear a gun and then declares everyone as heretics and atheist if they don't tow the party line, we need to listen. The propagating of Christianity through force and violence is "The faith that made America strong" by Rick Perry's definition of things. What other form of faith can he be possibly referring to if it is not the same faith that was used to subdue the Americas, beginning with Columbus?

"I certify to you that, with the help of God, we shall powerfully enter your country and shall make war against you; and shall subject you to the yoke and obediance of the church - and shall do you all mischief that we can, as to vassals who do not obey and refuse to receive their Lord and resist and contradict him" CC 

Shall we round up the gay men and woman and segragate them or place them in camps? Shall we proclaim, "Merry Christmas" and "Christmas Tree" as a government mandate every December?

Does any of this sound familiar?

Rick Perry is a dangerous man.

TaoSpring - pallet chicken coop

-
Image
I had less than a month to build a suitable coop and chicken run. I had very little money to work with. Having seen many coops and out buildings that people have assembled using scrap pallets, I thought that I would give it a try. Starting with two 4 x 8 pallets as the floor, I assembled all the available pallets that I could find. This is the frame of the coop. It will measure approximately 8ft x 8ft. Saltbox style roof will be 9 feet at the front and will taper down to 8 1/4 feet in the back. My inspiration is drawn from the bottom photo   seen here. I varied the plans to accommodate the unevenness of available pallet size. In a perfect world a 4' x 4' pallet would make pallet building as easy as playing with Lego's. Unfortunately downsizing has effected everything. Most pallets now measure 48" x 40" and the solid 4' by 4' pallets are usually reclaimed by their owners. Oh, they're out there, but I am looking to build for as little

Seasons - garden update

This summer has been very unusual. But I've seen it all before. There are times that the seasons act according to form and there are times that they don't. There have been more days of rain and clouds than sunny summer days. In point of fact, we had warmer days in May. We got started rather late but as you can see things are progressing in spite of all the wet weather.

I hate bad news

Sunday morning......Saturday night was spent around the fire with about ten people, little scotch, little beer, good conversation, shrimp, cheese & crackers, sliced apple and smoked gouda. So, getting up this a.m. was a little difficult and then the phone rang. It was my oldest daughter. My niece's baby died. Her father was holding her on the couch and gave her a bottle at 11 p.m. When he awoke, she was beside him on the couch dead. They don't know if he slept on her and she smothered or died from natural causes. She was 2 months old. We don't see as much death in little children as we once did. We have very old cemetaries tucked in throughout New England with many little children, sometimes from the same family that died from disease. This kind of death is different. How does anyone deal with this? If it is ruled an accident due to smothering, how does the father manage? How does my neice ever be able to look at him? Damn, I hate bad news......
