Hopefully this can bring some more civility to this page. I am grateful for: God giving me life and a great family here in the 21st century. I am grateful for this convention of Americans who love their country and are trying to find ways to fix things. I am grateful for the internet. I am grateful for Mr Obama: if it wasn't for him, would any of us have met? I am grateful for Glenn Beck, Buffalo Wings, French Press Coffee, I can go on... My dear 9-12s, I'd like to see what you are grateful for. Try it and see how it works in your life. "For as he thinketh in his heart, so he is (Proverbs 23:7) King James Version.

Give me some coconuts please :-) Tue, 31 Mar 2009 04:36:02 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=10#IDComment17897911 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=647#IDComment17897334 I have another idea for this part of the board. How many lawyers, doctors, clergy, and professors are involved here? I think having the "older boys and girls" as "professional opinion makers" will help us greatly. I can break this down here. I know we are dealing with legal mumbo jumbo with all these bills. Having like minded lawyers involved will help us understand legislation and how to write amicus curiae briefs, other legal pleadings, and more importantly, petitions of grievance when needed. Doctors and clergy can help us mend ourselves both physically and spiritually in this movement. And professors can help "unbrainwash" the college kids from all the red menace that has taken over our univiersites.

Tue, 31 Mar 2009 04:08:41 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=840#IDComment17897096 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=840#IDComment17897062 Ok, I don't agree with you, mainly because you have little or no scriptural justification for your ideas. Everyone from Nero, Napoleon, Hitler, Clinton, et al were thought to be the Anti Christ. This track was written by 7th Day Adventists who have a terrible track record of predicting the coming of Our Lord. The 7th Day Adventists are followers of Darby who had his "Plymouth Brethren." The Revelation of St. John has a lot of symbolism which has been misused by the religious elite for centuries to conjure fear and increase coffers.Jesus says: "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" (Matthew 24:36). Therefore, I beseech thee to follow what Jesus told us: "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations... (Matthew 28:19-20).

It is getting redundant.

Tue, 31 Mar 2009 01:13:31 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=840#IDComment17888516 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=647#IDComment17844749 How about a day of "prayer and fasting" like Washington et al used to request right after we won our independence? Let us make it the "912 prayer and fast day for America." I am sure there are many like minded religious leaders that will allow their houses of worship for meetings to happen. We need the hand of Providence to guide this country back in the direction of righteousness. If God is the center of our lives, then we need to seek His face constantly for guidance, patience, and all things!

I just got their DVD of electronic books for FREE last week and all I can say is wow! Folks, this site is the real McCoy. I know I gonna send a donation when I get some more money. Can you believe that they'll send you a 900 book DVD of pdfs for free? Praise the Lord and Read Up!

Why? It is getting us nowhere. We need to focus on the principles that brought us here to the 912 project in the first place. Stop feeding the trolls, and yes, Howard Stern is really the man pulling the strings for the NWO (a little humor). We need to be rational, i.e. not be swayed by emotional outbursts, dubious conspiracy theories, or the latest internet rumor about some legislation that will be passing next week (while it in all possibility will be pigeonholed). I understand that there is a lot of fear lurking about, but stand up to it! Read our founding documents, get closer to God, and follow these principles and values of our movement. Let us get past the chicken little mentality and focus on solutions. Fear is reasons greatest enemy.

I am thinking of starting a 501 c myself to be a community organizer like our president. I would educate our local citizens on the constitution and have like minded teachers, clergy, lawyers etc volunteer to help people to understand our founding documents and US history. Also, I would use this forum as an educational outreach for after school tutoring and helping illiterate adults learn to read. Get in touch with me or vice versa and lets brainstorm.

Letting the people in their homes would be true servant leadership!

I agree that service should be a sacrifice like you just said. I know many folks from my community and church that would make great representatives in gov't. Think of the image of Cincinnatus- the citizen soldier. Think Washington. The best leaders are the ones who know what it is to give of themselves (farms, business, etc) for the betterment of others (their fellow Americans).

It made my blood pump! I can see it now: flags waving, metallica balsting! Yes! Don't Tread on us!!!

Make the Constitution and Declaration of Independence mandatory reading and part of graduation requirements from Jr High and High School. No more teaching to pass a test! Bring back the teaching of Logic, Grammar, and Rhetoric as mainstays in our educational system. Also, teach morality. Particularly the Golden Rule. If the school is sectarian, then focus on the moral teaching of each person's faith. Finally, mix the old and the new. A classically based curriculum with learning of new technologies and modern sciences will make our country the intellectual powerhouse it once was during the revolution and until the mid 20th Century.

A classically based curriculum with learning of new technologies and modern sciences will make our country the intellectual powerhouse it once was during the revolution and until the mid 20th Century. If we don't understand the influences of the Enlightenment, and particularly the ideas of Natural Law, we will still feel "overwhelmed" when looking at the Founding Documents. Knowing what a Writ and Bill is is crucial. If more people understood that, then the whole AIG mess would lead to some impeachments. Just some thoughts.

Do you have proof? Does this include 18 years olds who still live at home, and have only a basic car payment and contribute to their family's grocery and utilitiy bills? What is your definition of Property? I think that needs clarification, or else you are treading on 3/5s compromise land...

Read a book from the 912 list Glenn gave us. Read our founding documents. Read the bible or your preferred sacred text. Read history. Just keep educated. Limit your TV time. Work that wonderful brain God gave you. From your reading, you can learn and apply great ideas to help solve one of the greatest challenges facing this country. That is the inspiration we need. Our founding fathers were pretty smart dudes who knew their scriptures, history, law, logic and all the wonderful trappings of education that are currently "uncool" in the eyes of the mainstream.

I think that letting foreigners in our army is suicidal; if I remember my history right, that is what caused the first wave of goths and vandals invading from the Provinces to Rome herself. It is scary how history repeats itself. Solomon was right: There is nothing new under the sun. Thu, 19 Mar 2009 02:44:55 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/stand-up-and-lead/#IDComment17221759
