The Tennessee Mockingbird

So it's the 21st century....

by June Griffin

If you haven't noticed, when you've tried to introduce words of wisdom which have stood the tests of ages,  and moral standards tried and proven, you will hear the new song: "Well, after all, this is the 21st century!"

Whether you are rebuking some shack-up, probably on The Check, or otherwise condemning sodomy or other abominations, here come The Enlightened Ones relegating you to the ancient past before glories of this New Age, The Twenty-First Century. This is supposed to sweep away God, the Scriptures,  His saints, any prohibition or punishment of vice or crime, and set man free to do whatever he sees fit, or rather feels fit to do.

Evolution has provided a vehicle for such vain imaginations and so-called "science," in its emperor's clothes, stalks through the land proclaiming its notions and fancies as law. I read the other day the latest "discovery" was a male fossil, aged four-hundred and twenty five million years old,  the latest frolic through the empty heads of the tax-funded evolutionists! Imagine, four hundred and twenty five million years ago! What a wonder! In all these made-up years, it hadn't evolved one iota! What happened? What is amiss here? I think they got the figure mixed up. Rather the 425 refers to the millions you poor dumb taxpayers have had extorted to pay for evolutionary textbooks. All "free," of course, and "for the poor." Baloney! It is for some lecherous  highest bid who doesn't care whose faith he wrecks as long as he can make a fast mandated buck.

It was significant when at the Bicentennial of our American Bill of Rights, the guests of honor in Independence Park, December 15, 1991, were none other than the leading actors in "Inherit the Wind," a fiction based on the Scopes Evolution Trial. The enemies of our American liberties, the fascists and Communists who slobber over evolution know the value of this scientific myth.

An old saying which has survived the flood of infidelity goes like this: "The Bible is the anvil which has broken many hammers." Some time ago a friend gave me a copy of a Bible which was given to one of those who had become a British citizen. On the inside cover is a label with the picture of the  young Queen Elizabeth, with the following words:  "Her Most Excellent Majesty Elizabeth II, Patron of the British and Foreign Bible Society. From the Queen's Coronation Service at the presentation of the Bible....

'Our gracious Queen, we present you with the Book, the most valuable thing that the world affords. Here is wisdom; this is the royal law;
these are the lively oracles of God.' '

President Franklin Roosevelt's signed  letter in the New Testament presented to our soldiers in World War II is just one of the entries, as well as prayers and American hymns such as "Onward, Christian Soldiers!" and "Rock of Ages," followed by instructions for the soldiers' salvation and how to accept Jesus Christ as their  Saviour.

Now, really, don't you think it is time to put away the old lies of Darwin, Freud and Marx and look to the twenty-first century? Do you want to spend the next four hundred twenty-five million years in hell with them?
