What was it like in America on Thanksgiving 1945?  World War II had just ended, and now millions of American fighting men were coming home.  What was our society, our culture like then?  What were we as a nation thankful for?  Can we take any cues from that era and find things to be thankful for today?  

Is the popular American celebration of Thanksgiving actually a celebration about a massacre of Native Americans by the Pilgrims and Puritans?  It has become popular in the past thirty or forty years to trash America and try to show that America is actually a terrible nation founded upon slavery, slaughter, and oppression.  However, upon examination of real historical facts, it becomes clear that this is yet another myth foisted upon impressionable and uneducated people.  It is important to expose the fraud of the Leftists in our land, and see their deconstruction of American history for what it is.  Celebrate Thanksgiving, knowing that it's roots are truly in a great feast of peace, joy, and tolerance.  

If you are on a college campus or public school (high school or junior high), more than likely you are not being taught the history of Marxism (or much history of any economic theory or nation, for that matter).  So, to help out your education, here are short little bios about seven evil little monsters who thought it would be a great idea to seize total control, wipe out millions of innocent people, and usher in a brave new world.  

Since so many Americans believe that government should have the right to "soak" the "rich" (whoever has more money than we do) and then "redistribute it" to others who are deemed more worthy of that wealth that they did not earn, I thought it would be good to just ask a few questions.  Share with your socialist friends.  

The term "fascist" is bandied about quite a bit these days.  But what does the term actually mean?  Who were the fascists of the 20th century, how did they practice their ideology in their nations, and who today most closely resembles what the fascists practiced?  

We talked about godly men (something sorely lacking in our American culture these days).  What does the Bible say about godly women?  Tune in!

How can you spot a godly man?  What does it take to be a godly man?  The Bible is very clear about the characteristics that men in the ancient world, and in our world today, needed in order to build a happy and prosperous life.  

The Bible tells us that there are people who may be very intelligent, but in the end they are fools.  What makes them a fool, even though they are very intelligent and productive in several areas of their life?  And how should we deal with fools?  A few pages from the book of Proverbs will help us sort through this mess and give us a road map on how to deal with such people, and also how to avoid the things that make them foolish in God's sight.  

After watching numerous videos of Charlie Kirk debating people on college campuses, I've been thinking a great deal on what the Bible says about the differences between ignorance and foolishness, intelligence and wisdom.  Plenty of people are intelligent but not wise, and many are ignorant but not foolish.  Does the Bible shed any light on the differences between these ideas, and does it give us any guidance on the principles we can put into our lives in order to have happier and more productive lives?  

My parents were part of the "Greatest Generation"...those Americans growing up in the Great Depression and World War II.  They instilled in me several life lessons that seem to be missing in many Americans today.  Hopefully our culture is rediscovering and valuing these eternal life lessons.  I hope you enjoy listening to this episode.
