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.

67 years after the atomic bombs in Japan

HOW DID YOU VOTE THE PAST YEAR? 
What has been the cost of the 9/11 memorial?
How much longer will it take to complete one memorial?
How much more will it cost to complete?
Who is getting the money?
 Subject: FW: 67 years later/SIML
 
GOOD ONE!!!!
 
                                67 years later!


What  happened to the radiation that
 
lasts thousands of years?


HIROSHIMA
  1945








We all know that  Hiroshima and  Nagasaki     were destroyed in August 1945
after the explosion of atomic bombs.
However, we know little about the progress made by the people of that land  
during the past 67 years.



HIROSHIMA - 67 YEARS LATER


























DETROIT
- 65  YEARS AFTER  HIROSHIMA























What has caused more long term 

destruction - the  A-bomb,
or 
Government welfare programs created to 

buy the votes of those who want   someone to take care of them?

Japan does not have a welfare system.

Work for it or do without.
 

These are possibly the 5 best sentences 
  you'll ever read and all applicable to this   experiment:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into 
  prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of   prosperity.

2. What one person receives without 
  working for, another person must work for   without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody 
  anything that the government does not first   take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. When half of the people get the idea that 
  they do not have to work because the other   half is going to take care of them, and when   the other half gets the idea that it does no   good to work because somebody else is   going to get what they work for, that is the   beginning of the end of any nation.

Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I.

Children with Jesus Poem ... Thanks Pat A. 5 lyle S.!


Subject: poem from this morning's meeting
This is a copy of the poem that Deb read this morning if anyone is interested in having it.
 
 
 
 
twas' 11 days before Christmas, around 9:38
when 20 beautiful children stormed through heaven's gate.
their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air.
they could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there.
they were filled with such joy, they didn't know what to say.
they remembered nothing of what had happened earlier that day.
"where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mouse.
"this is heaven." declared a small boy. "we're spending Christmas at God's house."
when what to their wondering eyes did appear,
but Jesus, their savior, the children gathered near.
He looked at them and smiled, and they smiled just the same.
then He opened His arms and He called them by name.
and in that moment was joy, that only heaven can bring
those children all flew into the arms of their King
and as they lingered in the warmth of His embrace,
one small girl turned and looked at Jesus' face.
and as if He could read all the questions she had
He gently whispered to her, "I'll take care of mom and dad."
then He looked down on earth, the world far below
He saw all of the hurt, the sorrow, and woe
then He closed His eyes and He outstretched His hand,
"Let My power and presence re-enter this land!"
"may this country be delivered from the hands of fools"
"I'm taking back my nation. I'm taking back my schools!"
then He and the children stood up without a sound.
"come now my children, let me show you around."
excitement filled the space, some skipped and some ran.
all displaying enthusiasm that only a small child can.
and i heard Him proclaim as He walked out of sight,
"in the midst of this darkness, I AM STILL THE LIGHT."
