backward world
What a backward world we live in. Cher's daughter wants to be a boy. A
friend of mine wants to be a girl. Suicide is called "death with
dignity". Our president apologises for our past to our enemies, even
bowing to them. "Tell me where is sanity!"--Ten Years After

Happy Birthday Mom, Thelma Codling Lapham
Today is my mom's birthday. She died when she was only 49 from cancer.
I was wild back then and didn't help out much. I don't remember her as
much as I remember Dad, but I miss her. She was a great singer at
Brookwood Presbyterian Church in Columbus, Ohio. I will post some
pictures as soon as I can. I wish I had a recording of her voice. She
is singing in the Eternal Choir at the foot of Jesus the Christ.

Harry Potter, DaVinci Code, Isaac Asimov
Just had a good conversation with a great friend of mine. It brought up
a question. Is it OK for a Christian to read and enjoy stories about
sorcery, or ficitonalized stories of Jesus? If my faith is strong would
God approve of my enjoying such stories as The DaVinci Code? Harry
Potter? Well, what about Star Wars?
Malachi 3:5
"Then I will draw near to you for judgment; and I will be a swift
witness against the sorcerers and against the adulterers and against
those who swear falsely, and against those who oppress the wage earner
in his wages, the widow and the orphan, and those who turn aside the
alien and do not fear Me," says the LORD of hosts.
Revelation 21:8
" But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and
immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part
will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the
second death."
But, I would not be practicing sorcery, I'd just be reading about it and
reveling in the excitement of the story. Is it a sin to enjoy sin
vicariously?
If I read pornography but don't actually cheat on my wife, is that a
sin? Is that the same thing?

George Washington's Farewell Address
"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity,
religion and morality are indispensible results....And let us with
caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without
religion."

Liberty and Tyranny
We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others, the same word many mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other men's labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name - liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names - liberty and tyranny.
On the back book cover of Mark R. Levin's new book "Liberty and Tyranny", which I just bought today.

Torn Meniscus
I have a torn meniscus. It's in the knee. My knee has been hurting
something fierce since January. I go to the orthopedic surgeon
tomorrow, and maybe have surgery on it. I hope so soon. Then I'll have
a couple weeks off. I'll be able to hang out with Mary every day, play
guitar, listen to talk radio! :o :| :) When it is all over, I'll be
able, actually be required to work out. I hope the picture turned out.

We are in trouble
We are in so much trouble. Our president is so weak and as such puts a
weak face on America. So our enemies look at us as wolves look at smart
alec sheep with the shepard asleep. North Korea launched a missile at
us while the photographers are taking pictures of the Celebrity-in-chief
and the misses and the "jounalists" are clucking, "Don't they look
snappy!" Now the defense secretary is scaling back the military like
Carter did (IRAN), and like Clinton did (IRAQ). You know, when Carter
did that in the 70's my dad was laid off for a couple of years. In the
90's during the Clinton admin. I didn't get laid off, but a lot of my
friends did...Now here we are again. But we're all breathlessly
awaiting the new U2 tour.

Dark Days
Now that we have a take-over of the government, the politicians in charge changing everything they can think of. The huge programs, the whimpy republicans, becoming friends with our enemies such as Hugo Chavez, the Soviets...oops I mean the Russians, the Persians...oops I mean the Iranian government, the homosexuals in the same barracks in boot camp, the high taxes paying for big Washington, DC parties are all mind boggling. The most disturbing, however is abortion. For those of you who are Christian, do you not read the Bible? Do you not care what God has done, creating life? For you who are not Christian, do you not care about human rights? Everytime I drive by Planned Parenthood I get sick. Please, pleae, pleae read Albert Mohler's ongoing articles about this awful subject, "What Makes Abortion Plausible? What Makes Abortion Unthinkable?" :
