Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

A video America needs.
Follow the link, watch the vid, turn the volume up and listen to the words. Our country needs to be defended against ALL enemies foreign AND domestic!

As long as they avoid the "We must be Christian" part, it sounds like a grand idea to help inspire people to become active in their communitys.

Nothing about Christianity in the vid...it's about the rejuvenation of an American spirit which has been lost as of late.

"My Bible and the bill of rights"
Capitalization theirs.
It's very minor, I agree, looks like a worthy group.

To be fair, in the "Read the words" link, it has the Bill of Rights properly capitalized, however where my government and my Constitution are concerned, the bible has no place near either one of them.

The Bible belongs right there~ our founding Fathers put it there.
In God We Trust

How did I not see the impending controversy ??
Perhaps this is the problem?
The establishment clause was put there to prevent the government from establishing or endorsing a specific religion or prohibiting the practice of any religion of your choice. This is a case of private citizens singing about the important things that guide them in an effort to inspire others to stand up and help this country reach it potential of greatness.
Well, here we are...Oh! No! They mentioned a bible! The bible is/was not the central theme of that video. We need to stop concentrating on that which divides us.

I'm sorry that I don't blindly endorse something becuase it has a 'feel good" theme.
Like I said, I want to be sure it's not a Christians First organization before I put MY support into it. I looked at the "Pledge" and it doesn't mention bibles, or religion, and I will be looking into it further, as I think it's a good concept.
Freedom OF religion is also Freedom FROM Religion. I want to support the country, not a church.

So....what exactly does this site accomplish beyond making people feel good about themselves and selling T-shirts?

It's supposed to get people to volunteer in their community, to stay aware of legislation that is up for votes, and to overall become part of the country, instead of sticking their head in the sand and just whining that "the place is going down the tubes".
In theory.
