I would say it’s one of the best things I have done in a while, and that is being a foreman for a grand jury.  I can’t imagine why people wouldn’t want to do it or would like to get out of jury duty because I have found the experience vastly rewarding.  And it has confirmed an aspect of human life I have long thought about.  Fortunately for me, I have traveled the world and seen firsthand how other people do things, and what’s different in the United States that works best for most people is the traditions of the Bible as a Judeo/Christian sentiment and the foundation of all law and order.  And, of course, we all see what’s going on with the separation of church and state arguments; global communists advocate the concept of internal destruction of our country.  Rip away the foundations of American life and the value systems that built it, and the rest of the country topples quickly.  I have had religious discussions with people all my life. I think of God significantly, not as a Zeus-like character from Mt. Olympus or a rival deity from the pantheon of Mesopotamian Gods.  I don’t think of Heaven as a place of pearly gates; I believe there is much more to it and that our grasp of it was miraculously chronicled long ago in a surviving document we call today the Bible.  There has been a lot lost to history, but we have a very functioning way of looking at the world and building a concept of law and order in society that was directly inspired by the Bible.  And it works and is suitable for the human race no matter what background people come from. 

One of the functions of a grand jury foreman is to swear in all participants of the process as witnesses.  So I’ve had to swear large numbers of people in at this point, which has only confirmed a long-held thought that I have had; without a belief in the good of God and without a foundation of the Bible, our entire legal system falls apart.  These days, there is an attempt to function without a sense of God in our society, a secular approach to accommodate the religious and political beliefs of immigrants all over the world, as if the fairness of a belief system might be the key to the human race.  It isn’t.  People need more shared beliefs, and we need to build our civilization around the ideas that work.  There aren’t many surviving documents that have come to us over such a vast period as the Bible and what it communicates about the values and functions of human civilization.  All other controversies surrounding the Bible are purposely advocated in order to erode the fundamental truths that have spawned out of those religious faiths proposed by the Bible and its Old and New Testaments.  After personally hearing many hours of testimony by prosecutors, police officers, and people connected to various cases, it is abundantly clear that none of it functions without some biblical context.  If you don’t swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, so help you God.  Without a relationship with God, none of it means anything.  And the entire thing falls apart; liars run your society for the purposes of godless heathens who will commit any malice they think they can get away with through force.  And if you get to the root cause of most crime in our world, it comes from the destruction of a concept of God in polite society to the detriment of all values.  Human beings just aren’t designed to be atheists.  They need to believe in something and unite together under those shared beliefs. 

Because of my experiences, not only in traveling a lot and seeing how the rest of the world does things but in my love and appreciation for our American Constitution, as a work of profound philosophy built around the concept of preserving individual rights, my grand jury experience was probably more profound than most people would experience in the same position.  However, it allowed me to apply some of this process to the realm of truth and justice, and that was vastly rewarding because it answered many questions I have long had about conducting a functioning society.  It’s one thing to question the validity of God and what role eternity might have on the purposes of the here and now.  It’s another to fall for the trap of abandoning all such religious concepts if they pull people away into a path of their social destruction, and that has been happening in America by progressives purposely acting as domestic enemies of America for their malicious purposes of social destruction, and the loot they could skim off that endeavor for themselves.  The level of crime that is loose in society is alarming, but it has a relatively easy fix, and those are issues that are well told in the Bible over a vast period that has cascaded into our modern hands for proper use.  I thought of that often as I swore in witnesses and considered the evidence presented as a foundation of legal cases to be judged by a jury of their peers as head of all law enforcement.  Not the authority figures of centralized government but the people who loom large over them to keep the temptations of tyranny away from their corrupted minds of malice.  In that vacuum of society, many crimes have sprung loose, and it’s clear that the enemies of our culture have wanted to use such mechanisms to destroy us from the inside out, and that is now how we must view religious incursions—not as a separation of church and state but as criminal conduction and the downfall of social discourse, used as a military-grade weapon of war. 

To strip away the value system of a society is an attempt to undermine it, and many of the crimes we are dealing with presently are a direct cause of this purposeful abandonment of social value.  Without a religious foundation, the American Constitution loses a lot of its power, which is why enemies of America have utilized the separation of church and state concept to such a destructive effect.  Then, of course, all the criminal law cases created by the interpretation of the Constitution provide the foundation of our entire society.  What are the punishments for theft?  For trafficking in drugs?  For murder?  We should all agree that we shouldn’t kill people, that we shouldn’t steal from people.  Or that we build a society that doesn’t destroy their intellect with drugs.  Yet that is the argument for removing the Bible from our society.  Judge not least thee be judged.  And with it, the ability to tell right from wrong.  From the perspective of law and order, it is evident from a top-down view of our legal system that the prosecutors present the cases of social regard for judgment based on the facts of the law.  Weapons of intellect have attacked us to remove our ability to have values so our society would crumble under the weight of human selfishness.  Without the pursuit of God and the biblical context that goes with it, society fails quickly, And that was the intentions of America’s enemies, who are clear to see when viewed from the perspective of courts and the chaos purposely placed there to topple our system of fairness and truth, and justice for all, by sheer audacity perpetrated by the down and out of our society, made that way by liberal policies and anti-Bible sentiment for the detriment of American life.  And in that aftermath are the smoking remains of our country and the cheers of America’s enemies, who have hidden their plots of doom behind the legal premise of separation of church and state and the removal of religious concepts out of a pursuit of equality, and fairness for all, knowing full well that in so doing, they would destroy those very same people at the foundation of their very souls.
