For years...

... groups such as gays, atheists, racial groups and animal rights activists have used threat of law suits and even true terrorist activities in order to cow this society into behaving and even talking the way they wish. This is somehow ok. But when Christians say they will simply take their business to places that will say a plain ole’ “Merry Christmas” (no other threats have been made) they are somehow evil, hateful, intolerant, militants. As far as I know, it is still legal to patronize any business you wish for what ever reasons you wish. Christians are within their rights as American citizens to spend their money where they want.

Oh, and to those making such a big deal about “Happy Holidays,” holiday comes from the term Holy day. Just what makes the day holy? The birth of our God!

Merry Christmas, all and Have a Happy Holy-day!

I don't have enough

... answers to do a true study of any kind. I know some couldn't
answer because the format made it difficult. I have uploaded the survey to a
free hosting site to make it much easier to use (and, hey! they will compile the
results for me, too!) so if you haven't answered yet (or just want to play with
the new format) go to here.


Thank you:-)

Yada Yada

I have been reading the Yada Yada Prayer Group books by Neta Jackson. I am enjoying the stories immensely. These books are really "How to pray" manuals disguised as novels.

The story (because all seven books are really just one long story) themselves are very entertaining. They focus on a group of women from many different backgrounds gathering together to pray and love each other. Between the twelve of them, they go through about every issue facing christian women today.

I highly recommend them.

And the Weather is....

Windy!

Beginning to wonder if I should have a tonado shelter! Man is it blowing!

My brother is coming up next week for Thanksgiving. So look forward to his visit. I know it has been hard on him since his wife's passing last spring. We are too far away to be of much help but prayer. :-(

Growing children

I measured my fourteen-year old son last night.

Six feet, one and one-fourth inches! He has less than three inches before he catches his dad! How weird to look my baby in the chest!

My eleven-year-old just passed five foot. Won't be long and I'll be looking up to him too.

And my ten-year-old is only an inch behind that.

The little girls are chasing them hard, though I don't expect them to cause quite so much neck strain to look in the face when they are grown.

My oldest (17yo) has been a half inch taller than me for about four years now so I am used to that.

Where did all my babies go!?

Systems of Government

Ok, if you wanted to invent a system that encouraged people to meet other people's needs, what do you invent?

An Argument in Moral Logic

Honestly, do you want to be governed by people who believe there is no right and wrong? Do you want to live next door to them?

Whoopi Golber's moral statement.
