Men don't be intimidated...

... by stay-at-home dads.


You'd be surprised how intimidated some men are concerning this. The silent - no comment look they give when you tell them you're a stay-at-home dad.
But it's not so much because they're looking down on stay-at-home dads. It's more because many know THEY THEMSELVES could be not too far away from having to "stay home" themselves. For many men, it wasn't a choice to stay home, it's a trend brought on by today's market economy.
But often times men don't criticizing it more because they're afraid of speaking out against the cultural implications of "sexism" rather than because they recognize what it's doing to the framework of the family at home.
But what if the economic and societal conditions fling more and more men out of the job market? Isn't that what's happened over the last 20 years? Lets just say, men are having a hard time with this, and families have indeed been impacted by it. Lets be humble about these things. While it's not a bad thing to have dad around the house more often, it's nevertheless an anomaly w/in the family economy that demonstrates a fracturing society.
Today's technology and industry has allowed many people to work from home and spend more time at home, but many have had to stay home altogether.
It's actually NOT a good thing that more and more women are "replacing" men in the job market and being the financial head-of households.
That is, in spite of the celebration of women being more empowered in the workforce.
Women are more than half of the ones entering college and attaining higher degrees and there seems to be today more and more opportunities for women in the workforce - whereas for men, this trend is just the opposite.
Therefore, it's good for some women.... not so good for men. It can be a double-edged sword.
God has given men their roles in the home and God has given women their roles in the home. This has become taboo to even suggest it in today's culture. But it's a general reality that when ignored and/or replaced in a society, will always lead to societal destruction.
So, if this is the case in society today, let it continue being an anomaly with the hopes that it'll be flipped back around in society as soon as possible.


Eat, drink, be merry...

can be just as much a stublingblock as that person who puts first his talents towards his/her worldly necessity, and does not regard his/her stewardship of that talent towards the One who has provided it to them.  Lets not forget The Lord of the Harvest in the spirit of Thanksgiving.  

Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or arbitrator over you?” And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” 

And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.”’ But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”

(Luke Chapter 12)

Equality or Religious Persecution??

The "Equality Act" (HR5) bill that is being passed through congress and being pushed by the left in Washington is truly a precursor to legislative religious persecution.  Since the left grabbed power of the house recently, they have determined to set the most extreme legislation on issues of "Climate Change", infanticide, and now this.   Within this bill which is masking as "equality" for people of the LGBT community are sinister and extreme apparatus to eradicate constitutional rights on our freedoms of religion and freedom of speech.   The abuse and totalitarianism today is more than evident with the increased cases of Christian bakers, photographers, wedding planners, etc., are being targeted and forced to close down their businesses because of frivolous law suits brought on by LGBT activists.   

The government's left wing party inevitably growing ever more towards socialism and communism, is being empowered by these special interests in order to bring about abrupt cultural change and social revolution.   Now they want to increase the persecution by setting this legislation that would treat aberrant sexual lifestyles as though they were a racial people group by attaching them on to the civil rights laws of the 1960's.

Among the many other abuses, this bill would legislate :

- the By passing our Freedom of Religion:  You cannot appeal to constitutional religious liberties.

- the By passing our Freedom of Speech

- Businesses would be forced to allow men in women's restrooms.

- Doctors would be forced to give children puberty blockers. 

- Churches and religious counseling and publications would be prohibited from suggesting that the behavior of homosexuality could be reversed (calling it "conversion therapy").

- Parents who refuse to give their children puberty blockers would lose custody of their children.

-Employers would be forced to provide medical insurance for "gender transitioning".  

-People would get sued and financially bankrupted for using "improper gender pronouns" when dealing with people of LGBT community.

Homosexuality is a behavior and a lifestyle NOT an orientation:
