These are the times that try men’s souls
http://www.ushistory.org/PAINE/
“These are the times that try men’s souls.” This simple quotation 
from Founding Father Thomas Paine’s The American Crisis not only 
describes the beginnings of the American Revolution, but also the life 
of Paine himself. Throughout most of his life, his writings inspired 
passion, but also brought him great criticism. He communicated the ideas
 of the Revolution to common farmers as easily as to intellectuals, creating prose that stirred the hearts of the fledgling United States.

comment: Make no mistake – we move towards a precipice in politics in
 the U.S. where if we fall, we will not walk away without massive damage
 to our lives, our people, and the world as we know it. Just as warriors in
 Korea were fooled by MSG to eat slop and think it was delicious, and 
nation after nation has believed and fallowed some of the craziest 
people in history, so it amazes me how bad it all is. I pray that 
somehow, this morning, what was one nation under God will somehow 
remember what brought us up in unity to fight for our liberty and the 
amazing United States. There are more than rumors of war – there is war 
and conflict which fans across the Middle East and now floods into 
Syria.
