Both parties, most religious organizations, military organizations, business associations, and other groups that form to become better'n us'ns. Now I will have to go look that word up. But I am wondering why my sister doesn't recognize elite.Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794620086508373660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449793263759467650.post-40622715453051821052012-07-23T13:05:56.809-07:002012-07-23T13:05:56.809-07:00Which elite?

People would have done more to stop it.” Coincidently, we had a good homily preached to the gathered flock at church this past Sunday. It talked to your “…what’s wrong with America…”. It was all about what has happened to “TRUTH” in our American culture over the decades since WWII, the ‘40s, 50s and early ’60.<br /><br />Back in the America in which most of us in the Elder Class grew up, “TRUTH” was Black & White, not Shades Of Gray. Back then, there was ONE TRUTH (Judeo-Christian Based “Truth”) for all. Each person was judged and measured against this same “TRUTH” reference, and they either made the cut or they did not. Fast-forward to Y2K and beyond. “TRUTH” for the youth born in and raised the progressive, permissive culture of late 20th Century, post-Y2K 21st Century is “situational” and “individual.” They each have and formulate their own “TRUTH.” Therein lays the rub. This fellow over here’s “TRUTH” is not necessarily the same “TRUTH” of that fellow over there. <br /><br />Part of “…what’s wrong with America…” is that, in the majority, we have become a Nation Of Mama’s Boys who choose to be led by a Mama’s Boy-In-Chief who makes apologetic excuses for the “TRUTH” of America’s Greatness. <br /><br />In a Nanny State being populated with boys born from too many husband-less, unmarried, over-protective working Mothers whom, in concert with nursery school-early childcare, are raising legions of “Mama’ Boys.” In such a “Father Not Present” environment, developing a healthy relationship with and respect for “GUNS” is probably not considered by dear Mom to be one of the boxes to be checked off in the Rites Of Passage to Manhood for today’s young males.<br /><br />I wish you much luck with your effort to bring Rifle Clubs back into Junior High Schools. You have your work cut out for you. Public Schools, which are administered and staffed by liberal teachers, and operated using “Politically Correct” guidelines, will be a hard nut for you to crack in trying to establish Junior High Rifle Clubs in them. Besides the school principal, the teachers and NEA, the school district lawyer, and the school board, will collectedly probably shoot down your Rifle Club proposal.Joseph-Dolores Poliakonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14986510534892025075noreply@blogger.com
