Sociologists often speak of the decline in marriage, out-of-wedlock childbirth, morally bankrupt leadership, the decline of the true church, the failed public education system, the rising gap between rich and poor and they come to the conclusion that without desperate measures, that such a civilization cannot survive.  Demographers point to drastically declined birth rates in every outpost of Western Civilization and remind us that demography is destiny; without new citizens civilization itself is unsustainable.

America was, and still could be the strongest nation on the face of the Earth. However we are dead broke, financially, militarily, and morally. We live in a country that has murdered 53 million babies since the early 1970’s under the guise of “women’s choice”. The reason we are not number one in the world is because of who we have allowed in our “leadership” positions.

Look at who and what masquerades as leadership in this country. This kind of “leadership” has wasted our economic and military strength through bankster inspired spending designed to turn all of us into their debt slaves.  Our morally deprived “leadership” reflects who we are as a nation and what we have become.

As you continue to watch football, realize that the terrorists are here and are attempting to recruit your children.

Spiritually, Christianity is now “out” and under extreme attack, but Islam is “in”. What kind of country would allow a criminal organization such ISIS to recruit its most vulnerable underclass youth in order to ferment violence against law and order as we seeing in places like Ferguson? Why isn’t our Justice Department arresting these terrorists who are invading our urban areas and turning the young into PLO type of terrorists? What kind of country permits this kind subversion of its basic cultural ideals without so much as a whimper?

The US was founded as a Christian nation on Christian principles, and references to God and Christianity appear everywhere in our founding documents. Who changed the rules when we were not looking? I have a hard time believing that a majority of Americans have totally abandoned Christianity for radical version of Islam (or no religion at all), but that increasingly seems to be the case. Before you refer to me as a “Bible thumper”, please realize that there are plenty of precedents which support the dangers of abandoning our Christian heritage.

We Are the Modern Day Version of a Fallen Rome

The History Channel lists eight reasons why Rome fell. How many of these eight reasons, which led directly to the fall of Rome,  do you see in today’s America? 1. Invasions by Barbarian tribes The unchecked presence of Islamic terrorist groups, MS-13 and the Sinoloa Drug Cartel on our soil speaks clearly to this danger as does the presence of foreign troops on our soil. 2. Economic troubles and overreliance on slave labor America presently has a $17 trillion dollar deficit, a $240 trillion dollar unfunded liabilities and a one quadrillion dollar derivativeness debt. Meanwhile, we continue to import millions of illegal aliens who will work for near slave labor wages. 3. The rise of the Eastern Empire As I have repeatedly documented, Russia and China are nearly prepared to win World War III. America will never know what hit her. 4. Overexpansion and military overspending We presently have bases in 117 countries. Military spending is the biggest cause of the deficit. 5. Government corruption and political instability If you have visited The Common Sense Show more than once, you need no scorecard to keep track of our criminal government. The Constitution is gone and we playing in a game with no rules. 6. The arrival of the Huns and the migration of the Barbarian tribes Over 10% of the country is comprised of people who have come to America illegally. We are importing these people from all parts of the world. There is very little effort on their part to assimilate into the culture, instead it is the lawful residents who are expected to acquiesce to the demands of the few. 7. Christianity and the loss of traditional values We live in a country whose President will not participate in the National Day of Prayer. Instead, he prays with Muslims. Various displays of Christian artifacts are now banned by the military, but not so for other religions. This administration has elevated the status of one religion over another. One lifestyle over another, one sexual preference over another and in every case, it is the fundamental Christian beliefs that are being “nudged” out of the way for more radical religious approaches. For example, in Fort Collins, CO, Rocky Mountain High School Principal, Tom Lopez, has his students reciting “In Allah we Trust” when saying the Pledge of Allegiance. In Colorado Springs at Pine Creek High School, Principal Kolette Back, has banned any mentioned of Jesus or Christianity by students, even in their free time. We have become a country turned upside down. 8. Weakening of the Roman legions Obama has fired over 260 senior command military grade officers. No military can maintain its military effectiveness under these conditions. Obama has also engaged in technology transfer with the Chinese and the Russians which puts our troops lives at risk. Obama has entered into missile treaties which puts all Americans at risk. Any questions?

What Would Take the Place of the Present Bankster Oligarchy?

If we managed to wrestle the control of the country away from the banksters that have hijacked our government, what would we replace this Oligarchy with? As you have seen historians have compared our current plight to that of the Roman Empire in its fall-apart days. Like the Romans, we are falling because we got complacent and stopped doing the things that build a powerful civilization. As time went on, the Romans grew increasingly ignorant as a people. Americans were pushed over the stupid cliff a generation ago. Just how dire is America’s intellectual deficit? America’s intellectual deficit starts right at the top of the intelligence pyramid, namely with its intelligence quotient (IQ). The USA scores the lowest in national average IQ among the developed countries of the world, at a national average score of 98. The data is obtained from IQ and Global Equality by Dr. Richard Lynn (professor of Psychology, University of Ulster, Northern Ireland) and Dr. Tatu Vanhanen (University of Tampere, Finland). At the end of the day, we lack the intellectual capacity to effectively support a Republic.
