The Texas Secession Movement is Rapidly GrowingBy Joshua Krause This year at least 10 GOP county conventions have passed resolutions to either discuss secession or place a secession vote on a ballot. To put that in perspective, only one GOP county passed a resolution on secession in 2012. Paul Simpson, the Chairman of the Republican Party of Harris County, recently told the Houston Chronicle that Its cropped up in a major way just in this last year. On top of that, polls seem to show that secession sentiments are growing in Texas. A poll in 2009 found that 18% of Texans would vote to secede, but by 2014 a different poll found that roughly a third of Texans might support a secession movement.

Texas grew due its mlitary and energy expenditures. Peak oil is over, cattle ranching, doesnt exist like it once did. Also, its no surprise, the vote was taken after Obamas reelection. Being a former slave state has nothing to do with Texans flirtation with secession. Peak oil is over, cattle ranching is hurting due to low prices but Texas economy is still one of the strongest in the Nation. Texans have a genuine independent nature. Our government continues to become more oppressive. So naturally one proposed solution is to consider secession. Texas is large enough to stand alone amongst the other nations of the world. Obviously the majority of Texans are proud to be Americans and consider secession to be a last resort. However, many of us believe we have approached the last resort Any secession movement not based upon Yahwehs immutable moral law as its foundational law will be just another contemporary instance of man doing that which is right in his own eyes, per Judges 21:25. As such, the seeds of its own destruction will be its own foundation, the same as with the our current Constitution: The United States Constitutional Republic was destined to fall from its inception. This is borne out in the following two passages: And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. (Matthew 7:26-27) [E]very kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand. (Matthew 12:25) The house known as the Constitutional Republic was not built upon the rock of Yahwehs1 word, but instead upon Enlightenment and Masonic concepts.2 It began and continues as a divided house. The day is therefore approaching when the Republics cup of iniquity will be full3 and Yahwehs longsuffering is exhausted. At that time, the Republic will be subjected to His judgment. Like all nations before her built on sand, she will cease to exist. The question that remains is whether that generations Christians will be prepared to build upon her ruins. If not, another ungodly nation will fill the void until finally a future generation of our posterity are prepared to erect a government and society upon Yahwehs righteousness as expressed in His triune moral law (His commandments, statutes, and judgments).4 It is therefore incumbent upon this and all intervening generations of Christians to do everything in their power to help prepare for that future generation of Christians to do it right(eous) the next time.

So in your country I would not be free to think as I wish and write about it, put what I want into my body, and live with whom I want? 1 Corinthians 2:12-14 2 Peter 3:15-16 This is your response? Incredible! I know I will never reach you but this is more for people whom you may be swaying, people who may be inclined to agree with you and are reading this now. Since your thought process is such that you feel those bible verses were applicable to the discussion shows you to be totally out of touch and religion has destroyed you ability to use critical thought. This response will be a long but worth the read to find out how much suffering people with your point of view/ thought process has already caused humanity. I provided ample information and logic was given to establish you do not have any proof your god created us and the universe. Your moral/spiritual discipline must remain your sole responsibility.

The damage done to society from the war far out weighs the damage done by someone taking the drug. PrThis is a result of religious zealouts everyday th Religious governmentsthreI have worked in 21 countries and consistently I have found getting rid of the need to be responsible (outlawing substances or activities requiring it) does not make a society or individual more responsible.

You can track the increase in Federal Government involvement in our lives and the initial rise of the police state to the disaster of the Womens Christian Temperest movement at the turn of the century. e L I seem to remember something about Texas retaining the right to secede when it joined the Union, but maybe not. But I suppose that would have been superseded when it was conquered and readmitted to the Union (even though it never really left). However, it does have the right to divide itself into up to four new states.
