EXECUTIVE ORDERS

President Obama has signed several executive orders in his first few days of office. I have been searching the web for copies to read the details. Yes, Guantonomo was a horrendous mistake. We are at war, and prisoners should have been treated under the rules of the Geneva Convention. Now our country will have to wade through trials to give a semblance of justice. The positive is that as a nation, we overcome our sins and try to make things right. We should never forget that truly innocent persons can seem guilty. We may become unpopular in some nations over the funding for abortion overseas. Personally, I believe it is a sin. So do many nations controlled by persons of Muslim faith and others. We may add 'fuel to the fire.' and give some of our enemies more justification to call the USA, the great Satan. Birth control being made available is not the same, and that should never have been withheld. That is true choice. Too often, abortion is not really a choice to the woman. She thinks there is no other choice. People of faith, we have our work cut out for us. First century Christians, took babies off the garbage heaps of Rome, and raised them and the church flourished as each life was special. Adoption and social programs must be increased now as wealth dwindles.
