Christians and Behavior

Christians and Behavior

I need some one to explain something to me, why we keep hearing about
over Eighty percent of the people living in this country, said they
believe in a God?. Should I assume that the people that make up the
eighty percent is on their best behavior at all times?. And that
behavior is in keeping with the life a practicing Christian should live. Always
conducting themselves in a manner that lift the name of Jesus and bring
praise to His Name. So,let me see if I understand; fifteen to twenty
percent of the people living in this Great Country, are committing most
of the crimes. All we need to do is get the media to accurately report
contributions made by Christians. For starters, we should have home and
church gatherings for twelve months, no eating out, no movies, and stay
away from all games. Easy for me to recommend, I live my life this way!, unless I am traveling. If we would take this action for a year, at least a few would know that we do more than attend Church; we work hard and purchase most of the things sold in this Country.

Conclusion and Caveats: by James Jett

Conclusion and Caveats: Posted here because I could not read this post on the other Blog.

This is the ending Post, for the Recognition Certificate, Medals, Ribbons and Badges. Today I tested the Links and all worked at the time of testing. That mean I can safely say that you can apply for all your awards from the Blog. I am sure anyone reading this Blog knows more about using a computer than I do. And will do fine in completing the procedures to submit the required forms. My concern is the sites offering the "Cold War Medal" for sale. Please, please,PLEASE, DO NOT PAY FOR ANY ITEMS LISTED ON THIS BLOG-THEY ARE FREE. The Air Force Site states (do not send any money). Be prepared to wait eight to ten weeks, before you receive your Decorations. Hey, what can I say, it's your government!. Seriously, they are wealth waiting for. Please, if you have questions or comments, I would like to hear from you. Some, may have information that will speed up the turn-a-round time, that; also would be good too hear.

A Nation of Laws

Everything I do or say, tent to be influenced by my belief that this is a nation of laws, not a nation of men. Yet daily, I hear or read about illegal immigrants receiving aid while violating the laws, both State and Federal. Illegal-immigrants go about their daily lives in both work or play knowing that a group of Americans can be counted on to protect them as long as they obey the wishes of the rich and powerful. If the reports are true, acts that will land a citizen in jail is forgiven the illegal immigrant. When I process this in the six inches between my ears, I wonder why citizens and voters tolerate foreigners breaking our law just to make the rich, richer. The voters in this country should be aware of the growing number of law-breakers. People with permission to break one law will not obey other laws. So one day we will wake up afraid to go out in the street. I have been in that type of neighborhood, a warning, never crave it or permit it. Please ignore the liberal media, when they tell you; it can and should be tolerated for the good of the economy. This country will prosper, as long as we maintain a healthy respect for it's laws and it's Citizens.

Back Logged and Blocked: By James Jett

Here I go again, coming from behind because I could not post to any Blogs. One thing I wanted to report last week about this great Country we live in, is something I consider when watching (The Lou Dodds's Show) on CNN, Wednesday Night, is that the Middle-class need to get more involved in nominating candidates for elections and influencing the issues. We can just spend our time engaging in our daily activities, while the people engaged in polities plan everything that's important in our lives, or we can take a part in selecting the candidates for office. It is clear to me now, that the new people coming to America, both legal and illegal will decide the feature of this Country. All thou the Whites maybe half of the population in the next 20 years, the votes they cast will be only one third. Because the other Identifiable groups will tend to vote as a block, while the whites split their vote. I know of no other group that split their votes as evenly as the Whites in America.

Why Every Vote Must Count: By James Jett

After all the get-out-the-vote work is finished and the voters go to the Poles and vote, the Republicans will retain both houses by the end-of-their-teeth. All the rich will be happy, because nothing will change for them. The rest of us will have to wonder what it all mean. Why? because every tax increase or decrease will help or hurt us first, and the most. But what if I am wrong and the Democrats win both houses?. I am afraid of the social changes that will continual to destroy the values we hold Dear, like marriage, raising our children and grandchildren. Democrats or Republicans, let the winners take all. I will not despair as long as the people continue to demand that we have Judges that will not legislate from the Bench.

Restoring Military Records: By James Jett

Since I work on restoring my Military Records almost daily, I will post all the information I use to get my records as hold as possible. I will upload copies of applications or post the Web address. As I receive Medals, Ribbons, Badges and Certificates I will record the qualifications required and where to apply for each item.

Yes, I am aware it will take some Bloging skills to accomplish the above tasks that is why I am studying the procedures an hour per day. Add this time to the hours I work rebuilding my wife's computer, half the day is gone.

Home and Family: By James Jett

This is the second reason I am writing a Blog, the value of the home you live in and the value it bring in life's benefits. Benefits like a place to live where peace and safety prevail. I am using the property where I live because I am going to post before and after pictures of the part that require drastic changes. Changes made for both our safety, health and improvement in the ambience. About thirty years ago the city of Wickliffe became a bird sanctuary, and my family enjoyed watching the birds as they visited the yard for food, water and nesting. To enhance this enjoyment we put a lot of effort in making the bird's feel at home in the yard. Now part of the yard is overgrown with trees and scrubs. It has become a place where Raccoon, Groundhog and many other Forest animals make them a home. Because of the disease that infested the raccoons in this area I started to clean out the brushes and cut down the trees for firewood. I will post the before pictures in the next couple of weeks and the after pictures as I make the necessary improvements

Korean War: By James Jett

Fifty-six years ago, I served in the Korean War, In August 1953 I received an Honorable Discharge. Just glad to be back in the States and home with the family. I did not worry about my records, medals, ribbons or badges. Aware that I had my Form DD214 in hand, I returned too civilian life and got married.

Last year when I had a need to contact the VA about health benefits and learn the procecures for applying for my Ribbons, Medals and Badges, I learn that in 1976 my records was destroyed by fire. Not a single sheet left about my time in the Army. Iwas told to send any and every thing I had about my stay in the Army to aid in replacing some of the history about my serve.

I became aware that many veterans will encounter the same problems if and when they need to apply for benefits. Usually, without your DD 214, no service or a long delay. So this is the number one reason I write this Blog.
