Back in May Stephen recorded and posted what he calls his “social justice” songs on his My Space page. One was a song he wrote in the wake of September 11th and the others were song he wrote as pondered the question: What does it mean to be an American?
The conclusion he came to was that America is the greatest country because it is where we all came to escape injustice. It is where every nation on the planet can come for aid. We came from other places, we protect other places, and we are stronger as an aloy then we are as our separate metals. And trust me, others have tested our metal. Our armed forces smacked them down and told them to play nice or we’ll be back.
We do have our flaws, however. Many turn a blind eye to the plight of the unborn. Many say that a baby is not a baby unless she is wanted. Many say is better to end the life a child rather than give her to adoptive parents who will love her.
And just to put it all into perspective…
