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.

Catching wild pigs ,,, thanks Ron Walters & Happy birthday this




Subject: Fw: Catching Pigs


CATCHING PIGS





There was a chemistry professor in a large college

that had some exchange students in the class. One day

while the class was in the lab, the Prof noticed one

young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his

back and stretching as if his back hurt.







The professor asked the young man what was the matter.

The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back.







He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying







to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist regime.

In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor

and asked a strange question He asked:





"Do you know how to catch wild pigs?"



The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the

punch line. The young man said that it was no joke.

"You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in

the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs

find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free

corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put

a fence down one side of the place where they are used

to coming.









When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the

corn again and you put up another side of the fence.

They get used to that and start to eat again. You

continue until you have all four sides of the fence up

with a gate in the last side.







The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to

come through the gate to eat that free corn again.

You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole

herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom.

They run around and around inside the fence, but they

are caught.







Soon they go back to eating the free corn . They are so used to it that they have







forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity."









The young man then told the professor that is exactly

what he sees happening in America .. The government

keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps

spreading the free corn out in the form of programs

such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned

income, , tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies,

dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP),

welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually

lose our freedoms, just a little at a time.









One should always remember two truths:

1) There is no such thing as a free lunch, someone is

paying for it

2) and when you begin to think that having your government

provide for you and make your decisions is ok, realize that you have







also given up the freedom that goes with making your own choices.



If you see that all of this wonderful government

'help' is a problem confronting the future of

democracy in America , you might want to send this on

to your friends.

If you think the free ride is essential to your way of

life, then you will probably delete this email.



But God help you when the gate slams shut!
