We, as a nation, seem to utter little about a national standard of values. I feel as though we are carving our values in jello. We see a pervasive lack of values, yet seem so uninspiried to do or really say much about. It begs the question: Who are we today?

One has to be careful about how you institute a national value. We want to uphold the constitution and not stiffle others beliefs.
In times past we instituted our values through the family ,church then school.Perhaps that is why the family is under attack.Im not suprised that it seems we are carving our values out of jello. When you get rid of a value and replace it with nothing. Something is going to take its place. Cause we cant, just cant live without valuing something. Its the nature of our beast.

I would first ask that everyone (at the talk I'm presenting) just quiet themselves and go inside themselves. After a few moments, as they would not be used to this. I would make the statement . . . what you just experienced wonder and hopefully peacefulness...re-awaken to that and live that. Decency and respect are all our values...we are going to re-claim that drop by drop, patiently yet with strong focus. Time to stop the train, get out, chill, re-group, and re-claim our values. Those values being decency, respect, compassion, enjoy life purely with a spark.

America is a spiritually bankrupt nation of materialistic pagans. I suspect within 10 years the demand will be so great, the misery so fierce there will be pharmeceuticals available to gently put oneslelf to sleep permenantly.

Happy Holidays. (dont kill the messenger)

I would tell people to keep their pants zipped up and their legs closed until they're married. I would tell them to behave like people, not pigs. Is that blunt enough?
