Dave Bailey over at FaithFreedom shares with us today his gradual path to the realization, that “despite oft-repeated claims to the contrary, the Koran was definitely not a book of peace”.

One week before Christmas, surrounded by the lovely sights a…

I’m listening to Handel’s Messiah over and over in my head while becoming enraged.

Really strange and amusing post, forest. The Hallelujah Chorus normally defuses my rage; maybe you should try listening to Bread, instead?

Jailbones, I think he was talking about Bill Handel.

I’m convinced Carter is the anti-Christ.

Nah, the Anti-Christ is impressive enough to fool many of the “elect.” Carter is a ‘tard. He isn’t fooling anyone.

Don’t think it can happen here? It will take several generations, but it will happen. It will take a hundred years, but someday they will be the majority in the country and then they will replace the Constitution with the Koran.

Well, it was Bethlehem, once. Looks like it’s Bethistan, now.The town’s Christian population has dwindled from more than 85 per cent in 1948 to 12 per cent of its 60,000 inhabitants in 2006.

There are reports of religious persecut…

Sorry people — I’ve been incommunicado for the past three days. 110+ mph winds in the Seattle area knocked most of us off line last Thursday night. Millions in the northwest just made it through several days of below freezing
weather with no electrical power and in many cases with no heat in their homes. It was 49 degrees Fahrenheit inside my abode this morning when I woke up.

Obviously, my power is now back on (or I wouldn’t be posting this). Inside temperature is now up to about 56 degrees F in here right now, so even though it’s a bit difficult to type, I’m back with a vengence!

So. I guess I owe several people some answers regarding my previous post (a few days ago), where I made the following extraordinary (shocking?) claim, viz.

SO WHAT if you’re 40! If you’re a Christian guy (Catholic or Protestant) and you’ve decided that your prospects of finding a mate at age 40 are less than favorable, I know precisely where you can EASILY get an attractive, English speaking Christian wife who is in her prime child-bearing years.

This post of mine seems to have caused a bit of a stir. (I am aware that extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.) In short, I know of a marriage broker that has a remarkable success rate finding young wives for older single and divorced men. The women that this broker recruits are Christian, speak English, and reside in many different countries around the world (other than the U.S.A.). The only (initial) requirement is that you confess your faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and that you can come up with the cash to pay this guys fees. (What? Did you think it was free? This is a capitalist country, remember?) If you are still interested, you can contact me (to ask more questions) at:
CyberCipher@comcast.net

The following individuals seemed to express an interest:
Bob’s Kid (Sorry that I can’t be more helpful to your daughters. This broker serves guys only.)
SnakeintheGrass (Most of the clientele are older guys, but there’s no age floor, as far as I know.)
VikingGoneWild
(Perhaps there are others, as well.)

SailorDave, Imagine is arguably Lennon’s worst song. Nihilistic dreck. I can’t stand the lyrics. Jealous Guy, on the other hand, is a masterpiece.

Admittedly, let’s say for the sake of argument (agreeing to disagree a little – I liked most of the album, myself) that the album that both are off of, is at least one of his best albums – there was at least one other good song off of that one too – Gimme Some Truth.

Just what we need now all around, wouldn’t you agree?

My father told me carter was a horrible president. I wasn’t old enough to really understand what was going on or even remember much of it, but now I completely understand.

There is not a leader left in the USA to do the ass-kicking needed to win a war. We have NO LEADERS, ONLY POLITICIANS.

Maybe we should leave them out of it…..

You know, outside of the middle east and ‘asia parts’ Christianity is the fastest growing belief in the world. 175,000 new Christians DAILY.

I’m not going to debate that point. It’s a beautiful song with misguided content. If I were to pick a favorite Lennon song, it would be Beautiful Boy. My boy (my guy among three daughters) makes me really like that song. I love all my kids. But having only one son makes me a sentimental sucker for it.

I’ll be tougher once this devil’s brew wears off.

AP shouldn’t object to the spammage – I’m already an advertiser.

Can anyone please do a simple timeline that compares Jimmy’s time as a pseudo-President against the rise of Islamo-terror?

I’m convinced Carter is the anti-Christ.

Of course, when they get rid of all the Christians, then the Sunnis and the Shi’ites will go hammer and tong against each other. Or maybe Hamas vs Fatah. The children of Ishmael seem to always have their hand against everyone and everyone’s hand against them.

I AM OUTRAGED!!! Sad sad days.
Lets take it back.

I have a hard time explaining Imagine to my kids. It represents the best hopes for our world. But it also repesents the worst of our delusions. All I can tell them is that it is a song about the kind of world God wants us to build for ourselves. He wants us to secure peace for our own sake.

How do I explain to small children that the birthplace of our Savior is a centerpoint of such hatred? Jesus told us to turn the other cheek only once. At what point do we consider that Christian obligation satisfied?

O, Muslim town of Bethlehem… All is quiet in Bethlehem. On Manger Square, the Church of the Nativity stands in the pale gloom of dusk, its doors open to passing pilgrims. But inside, the nave is empty of visitors and…

Lets take it back.
