How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have.
They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.

Planned Parenthood, Obama's Most Adoring Fans

Grab a barf bag and watch this condensed video of the latter-day messiah pandering to his buds (budettes?) at PP. I guess this is his "vision" for "change." So, would Margaret Sanger be considered John the Baptist in this scenario?
Don't forget the barf bag and click below.

This is what it means to believe in "one holy catholic and apostolic Church"

The Christian religion, as I understand it, is the brightness of the glory and the express portrait of the character of the eternal, self-existent, independent, benevolent, all powerful and all merciful creator, preserver, and father of the universe, the first good, first perfect, and first fair. It will last as long as the world. Neither savage nor civilized man, without a revelation, could ever have discovered or invented it. Ask me not, then, whether I am a Catholic or Protestant, Calvinist or Arminian. As far as they are Christians, I wish to be a fellow-disciple with them all.

John Adams to Benjamin Rush, 1810

"WELL ‑‑ What are ages and the lapse of time

Match'd against truths, as lasting as sublime?

Can length of years on God Himself exact?

Or make that fiction, which was once a fact?

No ‑‑ marble and recording brass decay,

And, like the graver's memory, pass away;

The works of man inherit, as is just,

Their author's frailty, and return to dust;

But Truth divine for ever stands secure,

Its head is guarded as its base is sure;

Fix'd in the rolling flood of endless years,

The pillar of the eternal plan appears,

The raving storm and dashing wave defies,

Built by that Architect who built the skies."

"I live to learn their story, who suffered for my sake; To emulate their glory, and follow in their wake; Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages, and nobles of all ages, Whose deeds crown History's pages, and Time's great volume make.  I live for those who love me, for those who know me true; For the heaven that smiles above me, and awaits my spirit too; For the cause that lacks assistance, for the wrong that needs resistance, For the future in the distance, and the good that I can do."

~Dr. A. W. Chase, 1870~

John Adams Miniseries

Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.
 ~John Adams~

These were the closing lines of the final episode of the John Adams miniseries on HBO.  Fantastic.  You need to see it.  The above lines really put the whole thing into perspective.  I also liked the scene tonight when Adams chews out John Trumbull, who painted the famous depiction of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.  He scolds him for the inaccuracy of the painting, which shows the entire Continental Congress gathered for the signing, and reminds him that, "We were at war!  Men were in and out of Philadelphia all summer to affix their names to Mr. Jefferson's hallowed document!"  Well, who knows the accuracy of that encounter?  But I love the sentiment!
Oh, and it's still amazing to me that Adams and Jefferson both died the same day--July 4, 1826.
