I am a student in the University of Adversity, also known as The School of Hard Knocks. I just celebrated my 84th birthday and I will testify that there is no better school, IF you choose to learn the lessons offered. But that's true of any school isn't it. The education is worthless if you do not put it to good use.
There is no graduating from my school because it is a lifelong adventure and one can just keep on learning. In my lifetime so far, that education has produced some really great results. Some almost unbelievable, but I will not bore you with details. Instead, I will tell you how it worked for me.
The main textbook in my school is the Holy Bible. It holds the answers to almost everything if studied carefully. That philosophy worked for America's Founding Fathers and it still works for those who try. That truth is so obvious because as our nation strays farther away from the Biblical principles of our founding, we see our once great nation crumbling before our eyes.
Revisionist history is being actively promoted by those who hate America and all the good it stands for, and some use this site to promote their lies. I do a lot of research, and believe only that which can be verified. One terrific source is the Founders Bible put together by David Barton. He prints word for word speeches and letter by the founding fathers as they referenced the Bible for guidance. Barton tells where each of the original copies can be seen. They are in various libraries and museums, so the revisionists really cannot refute this, but they try anyway.
The basic thing I have learned from the Bible is to pray for wisdom and the courage to act on it. And never ever back down when you know you are right and have the Bible as your guide.
