I'm a bit upset as to what is happening in NH right now. A gunman went on a rampage and killed three innocent people in a store. He had mentioned earlier to friends that he just wanted to kill somebody, literally. So he went into this store, shot the manager, a well liked young man, who had two small children, an 8 year old daughter who misses her daddy and a 1 year old son. He also killed two best friends from childhood who stopped into the store on their way home from a hike. All ...

Here are some current events I'm eyeballing right now. A few days ago Missouri Gov Matt Blunt signed a bill that abortion providers will NOT be allowed to present information about sexual health in the state's public schools. Hooray for Governor Blunt. Going against the powerful PP is not easy. He said: "All life is precious and needs to be treated with the utmost dignity and respect, I will continue working with the Missouri General Assembly to pass strong pro-life legisla...

I think the ACLU is evil. Yup. Evil. Before my father in law died he said the ACLU has put so many holes in our constitution it's hardly even recognizable anymore. Here's the latest. The Times-Picayune in Sidell, LA reported that on Tuesday night 250 local residents came out to denounce the ACLU in response to a conroversial portrait of Jesus that hangs inside the courthouse. Evidently the community is largly Christian, therefore, this picture fairly represents the majority of th...

Well I guess it's coming to the nearest theater towards you. It's only a matter of time. Oh at first everyone will make a ruckus. Going by our current trends that won't last long. Bit by bit, step by step we'll be desensitized to it like everything else and it will be put alongside homosexuality as a "normal" alternative to what used to be accepted as sacred rite between a man and a woman. We continue to pick up speed as we rush down the slippery slope unable to stop until we've reach...

First Rosie, then Don and now Bill. What is it with these guys? Rosie's ugliness and hatred is well known. She's just plain mean. Heck we've been able to see it all on tape everyday. Every single hateful remark and look is all recorded. How stupid is that? By now everyone also knows all about Don Imus and his rude remarks earning him a shiny new pink slip and a chance to sue his employers. How many know that Bill Maher is now in hot water with the Catholics? They are blasting h...

Well it seems as though I'm not the only one leery about the World Wide Web. I got an Israeli update today that I thought I'd share with you all. It seems as though the Jews of the Orthodox persuasion are sending out an alert against the internet. This is pretty interesting to see the Jews get on board along with mostly Conservative Fundamental Christian thought about the net. Although I have yet to see any Christian prohibition against the net at this time. I can't see it happeni...

Over the last seven years I've spent alot of time at Liberty University. For those who don't know, this is the University that Jerry founded in 1971 in Lynchburg, VA. Before 1999 I had not even heard of this University. I came to the quick realization this was the biggest Christian University in the whole world. I also liked what I saw when I visited this campus. So did my son. It all started in 1999 when my son was looking for a good Christian University. I barely knew who Falw...

I am Patriotic and proud of it. I always have been. I get goose bumps when I sing God Bless America, or My Country Tis of Thee. I can't help it. It was ingrained in me since I was a child I guess. We used to sing these songs all the time. When was the last time you had the opportunity to sing about our Heritage or even hear one of these Patriotic songs outside of a sports arena? Do our young children today even know these songs? My earliest school memories involve singing suc...

I was just reading this article about the 15 year old in Michagan who got in trouble for putting a piece of tape on his shirt that said he was straight. His school, Oakridge High, observed a Day of Silence where homosexual students put tape on their mouths or just refused to speak, even in class. They were also allowed to pass out pro-homosexual papers to the students. The 15 year old, David Gardner, didn't agree. So he got a piece of tape and put "I'm straight" on it and stuck i...

We live in a reactive society instead of a proactive one. We scurry around like bugs under a rock that has been lifted to expose the light of day only to find another rock to hurry and hide under. Isn't that what we're doing here with the latest senseless tragedy at V-Tech? Houston, we've got a problem. So how do we fix it? By making it worse? Taking guns away from law abiding citizens is not the answer. We all know robbing banks is unlawful. But guess what? Banks get robbed an...

Tax Season is over!!! Or so I thought. The latest news? The tax deadline has been extended to April 26! Well at least it is for the East Coast. It all started with the storm of the year on Monday, the 16th. This was going to be a good ol' fashioned Nor'easter. On Sunday, April 15th the snow started flying right after we got out of church. Earlier than we thought. It continued thru the night and in the morning we woke up to much rain and gusty wind. Since we live inland it was...

There's a ministry out there that is a watchdog for persecuted Christians all over the world. This ministry, Open Doors, has listed China as 12th in their list of 50 of the worst countries persecuting those that believe in Christ. Believers in China face much hostility and are abused regularly simply for no other reason than who they put their faith in. It's about to get worse. Another ministry, Voice of the Martyrs, ministers also to the persecuted all over the world and has ...

Lawmakers in Colorado are now considering that teenagers are going to have to get permission from their parents to........TAN!!! Yup, you can now get an abortion sans parents but when it comes to that golden glow.......bring in a note. I was reading a news article about this today. In it they quoted a tanning-salon owner who said he goes to great lengths in making sure customers are educated before climbing into a tanning bed. He said basically the parent has to be present and sign...

How many out there know that we've been paying for the Spanish American War all these years via the excise tax on our phone bills? Yup, that's right. I wonder if it's all paid by now? Well I would guess so plus more since now the government is offering us a one time credit this year. Did you know this? I guess we've more than paid the bill. While I don't know who, somebody figured this out and since last August or September this tax has been eliminated from our phone bills. Figu...

Our church every year has a Super Bowl party as do probably thousands of churches across the country. It involves maybe 20-30 teens and a few parents. They have a great time doing a devo at halftime. I read this today from CitizenLink News in Focus and was pretty shocked to see that there is a copyright law on the words "Super Bowl." I guess the word is getting out. Have you heard anything about this? Maybe we should come up with another term then. But what could we call it? Here's t...
