For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Clay Vice- We're turning the corner of 2907

We're heading to 3000 in a few days, Clay.

Thanks!

Many may not agree with my conservative politics, but I won't hide my thoughts on it. Some may just skip over and that is OK.

Sam

Thanks Marge Rusnak!

For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot (Bindi) on their
foreheads. Most of us have naively thought this was connected with
tradition
or religion, but the Indian Embassy in Washington , D.C. has recently
revealed the true story.

When a Hindu woman gets married, she brings a dowry into the union.
On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the dot to see whether he's
won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop, a taxi cab or a motel
in America. If nothing is there, he must remain in India to answer
telephones and provide us with technical support.

Observing the Muslim religion and state control

Thanks Alma,

Muslim is such an "open" religion. You believe in it or you are an infidel and deserved to be killed by one of their heroes.




When you get to the end of the article, think of my question: "Does
this at all surprise you regarding our current president?"

Subject: Calhoun Times Column 255 The Muslim Mosque


#255 The Muslim Mosque

During the latter part of my life, I spent over five years in Muslim

dominated countries where Islam was the official religion. In Saudi

Arabia, Christianity was not allowed. In Egypt it was very restricted.

In the U A E there were restrictions but Christian meetings and
churches
are allowed.

In Saudi Arabia, foreign residents will meet secretly under pretense of

having a dinner or a party and have a small Christian worship.
Although
they claim to recognize Jesus as a prophet, he was on a lower level
than
their prophet Mohammed.

On Friday Morning which is the Holy Day, in addition to the five daily

prayers, Muslims are required to go to the Mosque at 11 a.m. to hear a

lesson from a Holy Man who will read from the Quran. He will then
expound
loudly about the meaning of the verses that he has read. He sounds
very
much like a Christian preacher and his message is broadcast loudly over
a
public address system just in case there are those on the outside who

could not get into the building. In Saudi Arabia these messages were
in
Arabic so the foreigners did not understand what was being said. We
had
no trouble hearing them because the Mosques were only a few blocks
apart
and most areas in Jeddah were well covered with the sound systems.

They are required to pray five prayers daily and these should be prayed

inside a Mosque. The first prayer is at daybreak and most of us would
be
awaken by the Call To Prayer which would come over a public address
system
about 5:30 each morning. The second prayer is the noon prayer. The
third
prayer is an afternoon prayer around 3 p. m. The forth prayer is the

sundown prayer and the fifth prayer is one hour after sundown. Each

prayer has its own ritual and is for a specific purpose.

If a Muslim cannot go to the Mosque, businesses will spread out a rug
with
lines across it or prayer rug designs on it so that they are facing
Meccah
when they pray. When these rugs are rolled out they are considered the

same as a Mosque and are to be treated with the same respect.

One evening at the time of the sundown prayer, I was at a nursery
looking
at plants for my apartment and took a couple of steps backward and

accidently stepped on the prayer rug. Two Saudi men were suddenly
beside
of me and lifted me off the ground by my arms and set me off of the
prayer
rug. As an infidel I had defiled their Holy Place.

While I was working in Arkansas for a company which was owned by a
Persian
Muslim, I designed carpet with prayer rug designs tufted into it for
two
Mosques that were being built in Canada. I had to draw the
installation
plan for the buildings. The carpet had to be installed so that the

designs were facing Meccah. I suggested that I go to Canada and
supervise
the installation. The owner advised me that since I was an unbeliever
I
would not be allowed into the building after it was designated as a

Mosque.

There are signs at the gates to the cities of Meccah and Medina in
Saudi
Arabia that say that unbelievers are not permitted into the city under

penalty of death. I was never allowed into any place that was
considered
a Muslim Holy Place. There is one Mosque in Cairo that has been

decommissioned and is being used for unbelieving tourist to go inside
and
see what a Mosque is like. Other than this one Mosque there is no
other
Muslim Holy Place that permits unbelievers or infidels as they call
them
to enter.

Recently President Obama was in Turkey and made a visit to a Mosque.
He
was invited inside and he made a speech to those in attendance. They

would not have permitted him inside of the Mosque if they did not
believe
that he was a Muslim. No other American President or Diplomat has ever

been invited inside of a Mosque during their visits to the Middle East.

There is no indication that President Obama told them that he had

converted to Christianity and was no longer a Muslim.
