PALESTINIAN/ISRAELI PEACE TALKS COLLAPSE AGAIN, OF COURSE, WHY? READ ON

Of course Israel could not care less than it does already who says what about the continued TEARING DOWN OF PALESTINIAN HOMES AND BUILDING THEIR OWN settlements. Usually, when Western nations sort of protest, Israel takes that as an "OKAY" do as much as you can while you can while the PUBLIC EYE IS ASLEEP. Today in Israel, the people throw up blue and white? ribbons in jubilation (because they are continuing to build while the FENCE LOOKS ON) at Netanyahu's absolute REFUSAL TO EXTEND THE MORATORIUM. They are racing out to CONTINUE their destruction of PALESTINIAN homes to construct, among other things, a day care center, or maybe it's a mall or something. Why ask cooperation of them, I do not know, because the international community knows and Israel knows it will continue to do as it pleases from the looks of it and the world had better accept it.

The president says he encourages the extension of the MORATORIUM. That doesn't mean anything at all. They (the INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY INCLUDING OF COURSE, us) continue to put the WEIGHT of the failure or success of peace talks on the heads of the PALESTINIANS), Israel says by its actions, "So what, who cares." The Palestinian Abbas will not accept what Israel had already stipulated, i.e., do not expect us to cease building on YOUR LAND, which they will take. All they need is time, while others shout out their TIMID AND BACKBONELESS "Oh we wish you would ..., but we know you won't" platitudes.

If Israel can kill people, committing gobs of war crimes (ever since it set itself up in the ME in the MIDST OF Arab, not EUROPEAN, nations), including the incident of the flotilla, who would expect her to abide by the +40 yr-old U.N. guidelines, or the United States et al., when Israel knows THEY DON'T REALLY MEAN IT.

They just give lip service to those who sincerely desire honest, equitable peace in that region. But everyone is expected to sacrifice or bow down to Israel, or allow Israel to commit its heinous acts, and have everybody else act as though they all OWE HER SOMETHING. As long as "Israel has the right to protect herself," she will commit whatever crime that helps her establish her plan in the Middle East, THE WHOLE OF THE MIDDLE EAST WILL BE FENCED IN OR RATHER "OFF" WHERE ISRAEL WILL BE ONE LONE ENTITY ENCLOSED WITHIN AN APARTHEID FENCE with her nuclear weapons, e.g., THE ONLY EUROPEAN IN TOWN, in a way.

ALSO. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW OR DON'T CARE OR HAVEN'T PIECED TOGETHER ALL THE RHETORIC: THE ARABS DO NOT DENY ISRAEL THE RIGHT TO EXIST, BUT THEY DENY ISRAEL THE RIGHT TO EXIST AT THEIR EXPENSE - THAT IS, NO PALESTINIAN STATE SOVEREIGNTY, WITH A STANDING ARMED FORCES, AIR SPACE, ETC., AND EVERYTHING ELSE EVERY SOVEREIGNTY IS ENTITLED TO. ISRAEL'S IDEA OF A PALESTINIAN STATE IS A SUBSERVIENT, UNRECOGNIZED, AND THEREFORE REALLY OCCUPIED, SLAVE STATE.

LADY GA GA - ADVOCATE FOR HOMOSEXUALS AGAINST THE U.S. MILITARY'S DADT POLICY

@Angisong:  I don't know what to make of you.  I am not interested in Lady GaGa much at al, but she is a talented singer, her get-up is too distracting for me.  One thing, though, I must disagree with.  If it were not for CELEBRITIES like her, how many of peeps like you  in this country would get out, voice your opinions on behalf of others, and contribute your time and money,   Most noteworthy things that get done or those that give a hand in getting work done, is a celebrity.

They really are the DOERS in this country on a variety of levels.  WHATEVER HER MOTIVE IS, IS HERS.  THE RESULTS hopefully will help those she speaks out for, time will tell.  Whatever anybody does on behalf of the exploited (gays) DADT victims, good for them.  Look at it this way:  THE DEVIL MIGHT HAVE BROUGHT IT BUT GOD SENT IT.

Stephen Colbert Hearing (VIDEO): Updates From Colbert's Visit To Congress

Stephen Colbert Hearing (VIDEO): Updates From Colbert's Visit To Congress

S. COLBERT SPEAKS TO CONGRESS.   I'm glad Colbert made someone think & possibly mad.   He is a very funny guy and I like him.  When he talked about being bent over picking veggies, I know what he means.  I grew up in the days of picking cotton, missing lots of school.  Bending over all day hurt my back as a youngster.  I have a deteriorating spine today.  I believe it started back then.  I've picked corn at harvest time, long rows with seemingly no end; just like the cotton rows.  

Before technology took over, my siblings and I had to clean out chicken houses, instead of going to school.  The terrible ammonia  and dust we breathed are a lasting reminder of that kind of work.  I was glad when we lost that job because chicken-house owners started using automatic cleaners whatever they were.  I didn't care.


I know how the workers who do those kinds of hard  tasks feel.  I have always been sorry that they are exploited as they are in America.  It is a sin against fairness.  The rich people, farmers among them, who gripe about illegal immigrants today, started the whole thing when they decided to bypass Americans whom they knew they would have to pay higher wages.  They sneaked in  the ones whom they could exploit.  Then it got out of hand, illegal immigrants started sneaking themselves in.

Montana GOP Policy: Make Homosexuality Illegal

Montana GOP Policy: Make Homosexuality Illegal

Dallas:  That would be equitable.  What I believe should touch every person is that someone they care about or someone even related to them are homosexual or one or other of the -sexuals.  I don't see how one can accept the whole of oneself and not accept that of another - no matter how "different" they believe them to be.    




This deep-seated unethical tendency toward penalizing others for being born to look a certain way, be a certain color, race, religion, culture - or gender (some men HATE women and vice-versa).   I had a teacher who helped me to see why ... by giving me an example that made my stomach flip (I guess I was hungry), he said before anyone could begin to bring forth what is good, we must first "puke" up the "crude."   When we have suffered enough from that, learning begins to stick to heart and mind. 

I wish that would happen to the gay community.  I have them in my family.  I learned to lose any negativity I might have about how they function, etc., by stepping in my sibling's place.  Today, I know I feel no repugnance toward them because I did not want it, so I made sure I didn't have.   When God said, "Love your neighbor as yourself," after he commanded us to love God, I applied it to homosexuals.  It works.

A HARD CHOICE (Choose This Day Whom You Will Serve)

CHOOSE THIS DAY      AND IF IT SEEMS EVIL TO YOU TO SERVE THE LORD,  YOU CHOOSE TODAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE, WHETHER THE GODS WHICH YOUR FATHERS SERVED THAT WERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FLOOD (THE RIVER), OR THE GODS OF THE AMORITES IN WHOSE LAND YOU DWELL; BUT AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD (JOSHUA 24:15)

I had a friend a long time ago whose brother I used to date for awhile.  He was very ambitious and restless with it.  We broke up.   He married his life-long wife.  His sister and I never lost touch though.    Over the years she sometimes mentioned how she felt he was venturing closer and closer to the pit because his mind stayed on material things and he was very passionate about it.   Year after year when his name came up, that would be her concern - he was still walking on quicksand.  

One day shortly before he died, we had a long discussion about her fears for him (we didn't of course know he was closer to death's door than was supposed).   I did not really know how much she was withholding God's Word from him, until she flat out told me.  He didn't want to hear it.  Therefore he didn't.  She kept it to herself.  She respected his wishes.  We Bible studied a lot.   I always did the reading and she the directing.  I allowed this with no qualms, she was the older of the two of us, and she treated me that way.

She had one eye; I had two.  I could see better to read anyway.  I was also a much better reader.   Neither before nor after her, have  I  ever had a study partner who never tired of Bible study.   Oh, what a great knowledge of Bible Scriptures she had - by memory.   Except for her, I have never  known anyone who can focus on long, deep study,  or even care to study Scriptures that much and for long lengths of time as we did.

If I wasn't working, or taking care of other duties that could not be laid aside, I was reading with my swollen legs/feet up, while she listened and gave me Scriptures to find.   My child studied with us second-handedly.   She heard so much of our studies.  Thank God for telephones.  Lack of strength to drive or any other reason did not interfere with our studies.     As a matter of fact, a minister friend of mine warned me that I studied too much; I did not socialize enough; and that I could lose my mind.  I told him I'd rather lose my senses that way than any other way.  He never mentioned it again.   Also, by Grace I still have a sound mind.

Then, close to our end of communications, we shared her concerns really for the last time, about her brother.   I was not being diplomatic any longer, I guess.  I didn't want to be nosy or pushy, but I asked her point blank why not just reach out to him with God's love anyway and give him that love, however large or small a bite he would accept.  She told me very matter-of-factly that she could not, because she wanted to "STAY FRIENDS WITH HIM."   She kept silent, all for the sake of an earthly love or friendship.    She had two best loves: her brother and going to CHURCH.

All that I knew of her flew out the window - I saw it in my mind.   I looked at all the times we had shared God's Word with each other; all the times we had done missionary work together; all the times she worked in her ministry in another country and here in the states;  and I was sad in my heart.   Something broke.  Something broke when she said that; I heard it.  I've lived to experience that "shattering" a time or two again since then.   (In the year that King Uzziah died, ….)  

She failed him because she loved him too much; I always felt like I failed her whether I did or not.   During all of those years she still could not  "see" it is better to lose him because of God's Love, than to retain his friendship because of her love for a sibling.   By refusing to share God's love with a LOVED one, we did not measure up to the fullness of Christ in that situation, even though "I" never saw him again.   But she was like him in a sense, she was the "teacher" and  I the student.  Therefore, any suggestions or encouragements I gave were met with her "I know better" attitude.

If you know the story of Naaman the Leper, there is an analogy here possibly.   One was a famous general; the other sought after money and things (Mammon) I was told.  He lived right in her vicinity, right under her nose.  She did not have to go to Timbuktu to reach out to him.  She just loved him too much to try to share God with him at any cost.  Just one word is better than nothing.  But she made a CHOICE.  Not long after she confided that truth to me, HER BROTHER DIED suddenly.

I love her very much to this day.  I always will.  I ceased to stay in contact with her not many years after I relocated.   That was usually my job, since she hardly ever made long-distance calls.  If I didn't call, I usually never heard from her.  I know her number in my heart, having known IT for 40 years.  It's been over 10-12 years now since I talked to her.   If God wills,  I will pick up the phone and dial her number by rote - without thinking.  It'll be right, then.  We have never talked about this subject since, and I suppose we never will.

We never talked about how she made me feel when she got disgusted by all the tragic things and constant tensions in my life; all happening simultaneously, seemingly never ending, every year of my life.   Instead of saying we would bind and pray for me like we did for her in crises, she was so tired of my constant trials and tribulations she said very angrily, "Mary, I'd hate to live your life."  She was mad at the trials or me - I never asked which.  I never mentioned it again, neither did she.  She just didn't know, as I didn't know, that my darkest nights would begin after I relocated - away from her area.

But I started training myself to bear up in silent prayer.    The church I belonged to at the time was sort of like my friend in point of view.  The least one who should have doubted or ridiculed a testimony, did, and brushed it off as "you're just talking."  Yes, I had to seek better company with more staying power.  Angels I find have more patience than we do in the natural.  Those things cut me deeply, but I forgave them, quickly or not, but I forgave them, and became more careful in seeking solace.

My friend stays in my heart as a prayer on wings, on her behalf and mine, because my love for her is still strong in the Lord.  I'll never forget how we shared God's Word together.  But to this day, she does not know that she broke my heart (FOR MY GOOD) when I learned who her preferred friend was.  In remembering things, she too, has always been my prayer to God of how (1) not to be timid in sharing Him with certain people we PRIZE, and (2) not to be selective and show partiality toward anyone,  in handling the Word I carry in me.  When at war in the trenches, we cannot be fickle about whom we serve and whom we prefer.   We must know that before we go into battle, because we don't ever know if we will come off the battlefield alive or not.  But dead or alive, I'm for Christ.

THERE IS A TIME AND A SEASON TO MOVE ON

It is a beautiful day today, as all days are, rain or shine. I'm feeling great since I made my decision to stand my ground by leaving the scene. This will be the last time. It is a very sad and wasted life when one claims to know God, yet deny Him, His Son, His Comforter.

I'm happily in flight - away from the very appearance of ignorance (aka evil, sin, darkness). I labored in the midst by standing my ground, because I am a lover. I love my God, who is OM-, OM-, and OM-; I love His creation - thus, I love myself.

For ten (10) years of claiming among a "church" FEW, that God is no weakling; the minds with whom I contended in love for the Faith, still rejects that he is almighty able to save us and keep us saved. But, one must be saved first - "that is the rub." They sincerely think I should listen to them (because they love me!).

That renders every word they say in one moment a lie the next moment. It always comes back to "you can't be sure you're right" and "I believe you can be saved AND lost again." But none ever dared to use Scripture, which would say contrary to that belief; and they never accepted the Scripture when sharing it was presented or explained.

Of all the Scriptures of the world that I have studied these many years, which God gave to all the different types of souls he created, to guide them in their eternal pilgrimage, do not declare that he is inept after all. Oh, and none would dare try to convict anyone what process that feeble God would have to go through to try to re-save the deluded at some point in time. No one ever accepted that challenge by using the Books. And that is the Witness against them.

For example, in the Christian Bible's Book of Hebrews, the Spirit of the Book said it's impossible for St. John 3:16, and "it is finished," to be REPEATED, being a once-for-all accomplishment by the Majesty On High. They gloss over it and explain it away to themselves.

Truly, I would neither acknowledge nor serve a Savior who could not keep me saved - from the guttermost to the uttermost. Either my God is able to do for me what I cannot do for myself or the Books that put forth all those claims are false witnesses. That same Christian Book said somewhere in Romans when someone was gainsaying the Deity, Paul said that ... let every man be a liar so the Word of God is true. That is, whom do you choose to believe, man or God?

Thus, I chose to stand with all the Books that assures me that Deity, God, Savior, Buddah, Christna or Krishna, Allah or any other name is able to do what It promises through all the sons that were sent, being fulfilled in the One who said he'd send the Comforter to those who would receive it - and did it.

That is my comfort, the Comforter. Now, I could go to Hell all by myself. I don't need anyone to help me. So, I don't need them to walk in the Light in order for me to walk in the Light. The Comforter knows when enough is enough; the Comforter knows when it's time to move on, move out and move on.

RESPONSE TO ANN COULTER'S "OBAMA IS NOT A MUSLIM"

Anti-Koran Burning Sept 11, 2010

BURN IT, BURN the KORAN.  "Awake, awake out of sleep," someone told us.  So, this is the depth of the Babylon of Christiandom (HUMANS, not the Christ, even Christiandom cannot sully his exalted state).    "If I don't make it to heaven, it's nobody's, nobody's, nobody's fault but mine,"  said a song we used to sing in the choir.   Is there anybody there in the CHURCH HOUSE who is not as blind as the blind  eader of the blind?   Is there someone who is not mesmerized by this fiery delusion?  

Is there anybody there who genuinely cares for the safety as far as possible of our troops?  Doesn't this pending travesty remind one of Jim Jones, a false Christ?   After 9/11/10 is over, whatever happens that day will go down in history to stay there.  If that comes to pass, it will be a dark day for religion in America; this is not a country of Christians only.  It's a melting pot of religions.  But does one religion have to present itself as superior to another?  All men are brothers - that's the keynote.  It is not the so-called sinner that is running this country amuck.  It is the religious folk.  

When we see these things in other places, the onlookers here shake our heads in utter disbelief.  Some call them everything but children of God.  Now, look what is about to happen on to this country on 9/11, if goodness does not intervene on behalf of us all.

Think what it will mean if America becomes BRANDED with this devilish  brand.  If moral fortitude does not prevail in Florida, this will eat us like a canker (cancer); others of his mindset and world view will not hesitate to carry the torch somewhere else.  

Even minded people must band together indeed and in deed, to reason with this mentality on behalf of 1) our troops, 2) the integrity we like to suppose we have, and 3) genuine moral decency to stand up to help protect the soldiers (everywhere)  whom we profess to support.  

Some in that congregation (and those who agree in spirit), will have blood on their hands - just adrippin', if they aid and abet this travesty.  1)  They will have in a sense murdered their brother - the burning of the Koran.  2)  Those church folk will have trampled Christ under their feet.  3)  They will have defiled their kids by example, they will show them how to do evil and CALL IT GOOD.  If they do this, they will have lied on  themselves, on the troops, on God - God is Love, Love would not do this.  

Therefore,  they don't support the troops.  They don't care about their welfare.  They need to be the ones catapulted into the battleground, then they will see what it is they will have done.  But, of course, it will be too late, it cannot be changed if they carry out this deep darkness.   

They are trampling on the crumbs under the table that Lazarus (genuine humanity) could eat, but they won't allow him to eat them.  When they have done this deed, then they must wake up with their eyes in hell of some sort.  That, to, will go down in history.   Many AMERICANS demand apologies about perceived wrong done to us.    But sadly, many AMERICANS detest saying they're sorry about anything, even knowing they have done wrong.  That is how far some have gone from the right way.     

The man who woke up with his eyes in hell learned TO SAY I'M SORRY.  He ask that someone from the dead go tell his brothers not to go down there.   The Spirit told him if they didn't hear the prophets and the seers (see-ers), they would not believe someone if he came from the dead.  So if I agree with the evil they plan to do on the 11th, I might as well go there and do it myself.
