'Tim Tebow Goes Hollywood'

I knew this was coming,but I'm still sad to see it come.Tim Tebow has hired a Hollywood agency,WME,"for endorsements,public appearances,speaking engagements,TV,film,books,the works -they will even help with his foundation."

Tim Tebow is more than just an athlete.he is an asset and he is seeking to profit from his fame,as he should.The kicker though,is its not just Tim Tebow that seeks to profit from his fame,but corporate America wants in on the action as well.As they invest into Tebow they will seek assurances from him to be less 'offensive.'They will seek to water down his Christianity and soften his moral stances,so he can appeal to more people and help their bottom line.

I sincerely hope Tim Tebow proves me wrong and resists the pressure that will be heaped upon him to change and be like Justin Bieber.But I know,with the amount of money that's going to come his way,the temptation to conform will be almost impossible to resist.

"The King James Is An Unparalleled Cultural Triumph"

Last week,Rich Lowery,went an disgraced himself by propagating The Cult Of Lincoln.Now,Rich Lowery,has gone an redeemed himself by correctly surmising the King James version of the Bible's place in our history and our culture;

The availability of the Bible in English, Bobrick notes, fostered commercial printing and a culture of reading. It created space for people — ordinary people, needing no official sanction or filter — to read and think about their faith and life’s profoundest questions. Ultimately, that undermined the authority of, to take another phrase from the King James Version (Romans 13:1), “the powers that be.”
“Free discussions about the authority of Church and state,” Bobrick argues, “fostered concepts of constitutional government in England, which in turn were the indispensable prerequisites for the American colonial revolt. Without the vernacular Bible — and the English Bible in particular, through its impact on the reformation of English politics — there could not have been democracy as we know it.”
The translators of the King James Version stated their “desire that the Scripture may speak like itself, as in the language of Canaan, that it may be understood of the very vulgar.” In a cultural triumph difficult to imagine 400 years later, it not only found a wide audience, but elevated it.

If you want to see the cornerstone of Western Civilization,the bedrock of English style democracy,if you want to see the foundations of American constitutional liberty,go find yourself a King James Bible,and there you will find the source of everything that has made us great.

Just Exactly Who Is Crazy?!

A pastor in Florida burns a Koran and in Afghanistan Muslim's go on the rampage killing 12 U.N. workers.The weak-kneed politicians here blame the pastor for burning the Koran,not the weak minded Muslim's who rioted and murdered because they were told to by some mullah.No it was some pastor in Florida,who nobody knows,fault,not the mullahs who egged on the crowd in Afghanistan.Just where are those moderate Muslims we hear so much about.

You know we should be thankful nobody has photographed a crucifix in urine,because you never know what those crazy Christians might do.Oh,that's right,someone has already done that,and Christian did not only not riot in the streets,but the guy received federal funding for his"art."Go figure.

Christians today are held accountable for the Crusades,a series of events that happened 1,000 years ago,but Muslims today are not responsible for the events that happen by their very own hand.To say that's a double standard is an understatement.

Jesus said "you shall know them by their fruits",and Islam's fruit is evil.Around the world Islam produces nothing more than rage and hatred.Mercy and forgiveness are not to be found in it.Islam is supposed to be a religion of peace but all we ever see is violence from it.

 Update: This from Mark Steyn at The Corner;

The reason we’re losing this thing is because of a lack of cultural confidence, of which the fetal cringe of this worthless husk out-parodies anything Coward could have concocted. When I’m speaking on this subject, I often get asked to reprise the words I quote in my book, from Gen. Sir Charles Napier in India explaining to the locals his position on suttee — the tradition of burning widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands. General Napier was impeccably multicultural:

You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows.You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.

In the absence of cultural confidence overseas, we are expending blood and treasure building an Afghanistan fit only for pederasts, tribal heroin cartels, and the blood-soaked savages of Mazar e-Sharif. In the absence of cultural confidence at home, we are sending the message that the bedrock principles of free, pluralist societies will bend and crumble in a vain race to keep up with the ever touchier sensitivities of the perpetually aggrieved. Claire Berlinski has it right: The real “racists” here are not this no-name pastor and his minimal flock but Reid, Graham, and the Times — for they assume that a significant proportion of Muslims are not responsible human beings but animals no more capable of rational behavior than the tiger who mauled Siegfried’s Roy. If that is true, certain consequences follow therefrom. The abandonment of the First Amendment is not one of them.
