Watch out for "happy slapping"-its ultraviolence

Watch out for "happy slapping". http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,3604,1470161,00.html It is nothing but the beginnings of ultraviolence. Have you ever seen the movie Clockwork Orange, about a gang of thugs that go around beating up people for no reason. Happy slapping, started in England, is where kids with video phones go up to other kids at school and hit them in the face while recprding the assult on their phone. Not just at school, either, but also people waiting at cash machines, or parks. Watch out.

The new Pope

The Pope is just a man. Romans 3:23 say "All have sinned. All fall short of the glory of God."
To have an entire religion based on Peter is crazy. Peter was a ner-do-well. Bold though. I love Peter, but he was a sinner too. During this whole time with the Pope where is the mention of Christ? He is the only one worthy to be praised.
Don't get me wrong. The old pope was a great man. So was Ronald Reagan, Winston Churchill, Margret Thatcher (who actually is a woman), Augastine, Martin Luther. Even Mary was a sinner. I've heard that Catholics believe she did not sin. Is that true, my catholic bretheren? But that's not Biblical: We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on HIM the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6. That HIM is Jesus. Jesus alone.
I'm not bashing. Just trying to get a conversation going. Wadya think?

The Culture of Death

The Grim Reaper seems to be King in this world. You have abortion on demand, teenage kids dressing up in all black wandering through their schools shooting at and killing anyone that moves, millions in Africa sitting in the dirt dying, and just recently, beheadings in Iraq. Now Terri Schivo has been murdered by an entire society, with her husband, the appeals court in Florida, the Democrats (not all), the Supreme Court of the United States, the police all struggling to kill Mrs. Schivo as fast as, or as slow as, they could. If you are not careful, someone is going to come along and kill you, too, and nobody will care, except Jesus. He cares. He knows about the culture of death. He's been there.

Iraqi election

May God bless the Iraqi elections and may the selfish insurgents meet the real Satan. What a culture. The world is witnessing a giant culture change in the Middle East and that is why there is so much violence. The culture of 12 plus centuries of hatred and violence, since the beginning of Islam, is coming to a screaming end. The election is not the end, it is the beginning of the end of the repressive culture of Islam.

Hey, Mr. Blair! How about the world join us?

Mr. Blair says he thinks that we should join the world so that the world will go along with the kind of things that we want to do in the world. How about the world join us? It has been for quite some time, actually. Who in this world has a better idea about anything, like Democracy, free elections, justice, lack of tyranny?

Islamic rapists

It seems to me that Islamists in Chechnya and Sudan aren't waiting to die to get their virgins. The disgusting animals are raping children now! And do I here any word of condemnation from the rest of the Islamic world? No! To me that means they are all guilty! I want no part of this god-forsaken religion. Just give me Jesus, the God of mercy and grace.

Isaiah 47:13, 14 on astrology

It is plentiful in the Bible that astology is wrong, a sin. God does not want us to worship the stars. It also is illogical. Yet so many smart "Christian" bloggers have what astological sign they are listed on their profiles. Christians, put aside that which does not honor God!

Dan would Rather not
