The US is having an identity crisis, our generation forced to decide: will we or will we not choose to stand on the principles bequeathed to us: the equality of all; God-given inalienable rights to life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness; & govt. existing to secure those rights.

Important we consider that question because it’s not the way we function now. Much govt policy does NOT respect the equality of all & does NOT support everyone’s pursuit of happiness. According to Dec of Ind, if govt fails to do its job it’s the right of the people to alter it.

The Declaration of Independence is America’s mission statement; part of our problem is that our generation has failed to emotionally and psychologically bond with it. Its principles are dead if they’re not alive in our hearts. Read it and reread it. It will change you. #bigtruth

Marianne, according to our country, America IS off the rails. It used to be a place with value and courage and future. It is now seen as poor, it is sad, it is dismal... Nothing about the US is great anymore.

It will be great again. But first we have to make it good.

Marianne, I agree with you. The core of our identity crisis is that we don't see LIFE as precious. Our own lives, AND the lives of every other person--starting with the human child in the womb. America has almost 1 million abortions a year. We are literally killing our future.

No God gave us rights. Human beings fought hard for every single one

It’s because the rights of the “individual” are being shunted over for identity politics; that’s why
