    A prominent American's daughter

    was interviewed on the Early Show

    and Jane Clayson asked her "How"How

    could God let something like thiscould God let something like this

    (Regarding the attacks on September

    Anne Graham gave an extremely profound

    and insightful response.

    She said, "Ibelieve God is deeply saddened by"Ibelieve God is deeply saddened by

    In light of recent events...terrorists attack,

    school shootings, etc, I think it started whenMadeleine Murray O'Hare (she was

    murdered, her body

    found recently) complained she didn't want

    prayer in our schools, and we said OK. Thensomeone said you better not read the Bible in

    school...

    the Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt

    not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself.And we said OK.

    Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't

    spank our children when they misbehave

    because their little personalities would be

    warped and we might

    damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son

    committed suicide). We said an expert should

    know what he's talking about.

    And we said OK.

    Then someone said teachers and principals

    better not discipline our children when theymisbehave. The school administrators said no

    faculty

    member in this school better touch a student

    when they misbehave because we don't want

    any bad publicity, and we surely don't want to

    be sued (there's a big difference between

    disciplining, touching, beating, smacking,

    humiliating, kicking, etc.)

    And we said OK.

    Then someone said, let's let our

    daughters have abortions if they

    want, and they won't even have to tell

    their parents.

    And we said OK.

    Then some wise school board member said,since boys will be boys and they're going to do

    it anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms

    they

    want so they can have all the fun they desire,and we won't have to tell their parents they

    got them at school.

    And we said OK.

    Then some of our top elected officialssaid it doesn't matter what we do in

    private as long as we do our jobs.

    Agreeing with them, we said it

    doesn't

    matter to me what anyone, including

    the President, does in private as long

    as I have a job and the economy isgood.

    Then someone said let's printmagazines with pictures of nude

    women and call it wholesome, down-

    to-earth appreciation for the beautyof the female body.

    And we said OK.

    Then the entertainment industry said, let'smake TV shows and movies that promote

    profanity, violence, and illicit sex. Let's record

    music that

    encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, andsatanic themes.And we said it's just

    entertainment, it has no adverse effect,

    nobody takes it seriously anyway, so go right

    ahead.

    Now we're asking ourselves why our

    children have no conscience, why

    they don't know right from wrong,

    and why it doesn't bother them to kill

    strangers, their classmates, and

    themselves.

    Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when

    you start sending messages regarding the

    Lord, people

    think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd,crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely

    through cyberspace, but public discussion of

    God is

    suppressed in the school and workplace.

    Are you laughing?

    Funny how when you forward this message,

    you will not send it to many on your address

    list because you're not sure what they believe,

    or what they will think of you for sending it.

    Funny how we can be more worried aboutwhat other people think of us than what God

    thinks of us.

    Pass it on if you think it has merit. If not then

    just discard it... No one will know you did.

    But, if you discard this thought process, don't

    sit back and complain about what bad shape

    the world is in!
