STNL At the Kentucky State Fair

It is concerning how spiritual warfare has chosen such a battlefield as the State Fair. Welcoming the Fair's many visitors is a billboard comforting atheists: "Don't Believe in God? You are not alone." Do those rejecting the idea of God in favor of self truly need a self-esteem boost from a billboard?

The Christian is inundated with with information and attacks to their world-view and belief system from all directions of their daily life in this very secularized culture. It is intriguing to know that within this secular culture a secular billboard needs to be erected to bring comfort to a secular person.

After passing by booths promoting homosexuality and a secular view on reproductive choice, visitors might be interested in this booth. Notice "Pro-Choice" is considerably larger than the previous values this organization is a proponent of. Notice the sign on the right: "I'm pro-choice and I pray." May this be a lesson that the practice of religious ceremonies does not exempt one from morality, nor does being religious give one the license to write their own moral codes. Speaking to the lady at this booth, you will sure to hear non-sequitur fallacies and arguments based on emotions rather than reason.
The Kentucky Right to Life booth is filled with petitions and information. It was quite appropriate this father and baby was here. Another grateful child.

Come to the Fair, where there is challenge to your faith. May Christians present challenges in return.
