I really don't have a problem with a surveillanced society. As mentioned before, our government needs to watchdog terrorists and any kind of criminal.
One day, America may become a Christian theocracy or theonomy. If so, I think surveillance may even increase then because the Christian government would be looking out for people who violate Biblical laws. There may even be cameras in homes by then.
Either way, if you're not committing any crime, you have nothing to worry about.

A couple of years ago, when I was Born Again, my CD and DVD collection all went into the trash. I then went through and locked out most of my cable channels. TBN or CBN are just awesome. They are all I really watch anymore. The Food Network isn't bad. And obviously the Weather Channel. But there really does need to be more Christian networks out there.
Fox News is the only news channel I'll watch but I agree that even they are getting too liberal in many ways. I also don't like that they have that s*x show with that Albright woman.
Liberism seems to creep in everywhere these days. That needs to stop.

Thank you for your welcome. I'm very blessed to be here. And "horrible lifestyle" is actually putting it mildly. It's not a good life when one can just do anything they want to. There needs to be limits, rules and laws. In fact, I totally agree with the rules of this web site. Like not allowing any blasphemous user ID's here. I wish America had the same laws. I hope, somehow, that liberals could be outlawed one day.
My greatest accomplishment as a Christian is that I managed to witness to a friend who was extremely agnostic liberal and identified as a lesb*n. It took a long time, but she has since came back to God and given up that destructive lifestyle and is currently seeing a very Christian man. Those are the things I want to do. I love witnessing. It takes a long time, but it's so important.
Again. Thank you for your welcome. Tom

Greetings,
I'm Tom. I'm new to this awesome website. I'll try and give a short synopsis about me. !'m 45. I was raised Lutheran, but became atheist when I was 17. In the 90's I became interested in the occult for a few years, but then got out of that. I would always argue with Christians on many web sites and even with close friends who were Christians. But I found that I was always loosing the arguments. I finally realised that my Christian friends were actually right and everything I had believed was completely 100% wrong. A friend invited me to church one day and it just knocked my socks off. I physically felt the Love of God welcome me to Him. I instantly joined his church and started taking Bible classes and prayer groups. I started attending church on Sundays (both services) and even the Monday evening service. My life had completely turned around. I went through my house and removed anything of an unGodly nature like rock and pop music CD's, secular movies, science books and anything anti-Christian and took it all to the city dump. I gave up alcohol, porn, swearing, and anything God frowns on.
I completely purged my former liberal athiest self and became a Born Again, extremely conservative, student of God. Life has never felt more wonderful. I'm particularly interested in organizations that work towards putting God back into government, schools, and every nook and cranny of American life. I'd love to see a cross on the American flag one day.
Anyway. It's an honor to be on this group. I look forward to many interesting conversations. At least, when I can with my busy life.
God bless, Tom
