RANDOM THOUGHTS “It's more than the alpha male. You can feel he's a powerful man, and yet, he's so kind.”

THE SUICIDE OF REASON (Part 1)

In the book, "The Suicide of Reason: Radical Islam's Threat to the West," by Lee Harris, the author puts forth an amazing hypothesis. Our current American society, in our effort to be "politically correct" and to not "offend" anyone, is breeding out "Alpha" males.

For those of you in Californication and other liberal areas, an Alpha male is a dominant man, one who gets what he goes after and leads the "pack." A true Alpha male is also a good person, fair, strong, balanced, and just.

Now, personally, I'm not an Alpha male. I wish I was but, truth be known, I'm not. Also, I really believe there are still many Alpha males in this country. in the military, in business, and in our homes. But I have, for years, believed we are punishing success and aggression. Not the bad kind of aggression but the good kind.

"But, Tim, there is no good kind of aggression!" some will shout. Yes, to me, to be "aggressive" in defending the things you love, family, country, even ideals, is a virtue. And sometimes that aggression is not pretty. Or attractive. Or "PC."

If you've been on this website for more than 5 seconds, you'll know I'm aggressive when it comes to our troops, that I'm aggressive when it comes to conservatism, and aggressive when it comes to my country. And I don't really care if you agree or not. (You're not paying me any money anyway...) But I do care about my passions.

And if there is one thing that I believe we must do, as Americans, to get out of this mess we're in right now, it's that we must have leaders rise up and grab the reins and say "WHOA!" We must have leaders rise up and say "STOP!" We must have leaders that actually L E A D. And I'm not talking just about politics. I'm saying we need leaders in business, in our homes, in our Churches. No more letting things get worse and worse and crying "I can't do anything. I'm just one person."

Every trip, no matter how long, starts with one step. One man.

Yes, I said "man." Men are the leaders we need. Men need to stop fearing women, fearing that they might not be "emotional enough." The first step must be in the home, BY THE HUSBAND! Lead your family. Lead your neighborhoods. LEAD. See Ephesians, chapter 5. That's in the Bible. Oh my, I said the Bible! Some of you are going bonkers right now as you read this.

Well, calm down. Part 2 of this entry is coming very soon. Stew on that for awhile....
