Snow In Miami...?

Thirty (30) Years ago today it snowed in Miami, Florida...
I saw it with my own eyes, otherwise I would never have believed it.
It fell from the sky and did not quite stay around very long on the ground....

Pray - Paul Harvey

Please take a moment and read

Paul Harvey says: I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December. I don't agree with Darwin , but I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his theory of evolution. Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered because someone says a 30-second prayer before a football game. So what's the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the entire book of Acts. They're just talking to a God they believe in and asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans going home from the game "But it's a Christian prayer," some will argue. Yes, and this is the United States of America , a country founded on Christian principles. According to our very own phone book, Christian churches outnumber all others better than 200-to-1. So what would you expect-somebody chanting Hare Krishna? If I went to a football game in Jerusalem , I would expect to hear a Jewish prayer. If I went to a soccer game in Baghdad , I would expect to hear a Muslim prayer. If I went to a ping pong match in China , I would expect to hear someone pray to Buddha. And I wouldn't be offended. It wouldn't bother me one bit. When in Rome .. "But what about the atheists?" is another argument. What about them? Nobody is asking them to be baptized. We're not going to pass the collection plate. Just humor us for 30 seconds. If that's asking too much, bring a Walkman or a pair of ear plugs. Go to the bathroom. Visit the concession stand. Call your lawyer! Unfortunately, one or two will make that call. One or two will tell thousands what they can and cannot do. I don't think a short prayer at a football game is going to shake the world's foundations. Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while our courts strip us of all our rights. Our parents and grandparents taught us to pray before eating; to pray before we go to sleep. Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people and their lawyers are telling us to cease praying. God, help us. And if that last sentence offends you, well .. just sue me.

amen...


and by the way....

Let's celebrate NATIONAL ATHIESTS DAY....

April 1st 2006 and every April First...!!!

commonly known as APRIL FOOL'S DAY

Lets see, evolution:

It rained on the rocks for millions of years and minerals formed in pools of water,
lightning struck the pool and water and POOF we came alive and crawled out of the pool and here we are....so a frog really does turn into a prince....only instead of a kiss, it takes million of years....or does this sound like a fairy tale...???????

Duh Award...

Ananova:
Safety test burns club to ground
A strip club owner burned his club to the ground while trying to prove it was fire-proof to health and safety inspectors.
Benedict Frank, owner of the Cabaret Club in Kienberg, Switzerland, started the blaze to show how fire-proof it was when he was visited by safety inspectors.
They had questioned whether his decorations were in accordance with fire safety rules, and he used his lighter to set fire to the paper ornaments in a bid to prove there was nothing to worry about.
But the fire quickly took off and spread throughout the club and the neighbouring restaurant - burning both establishments to the ground.
According to local police no one was hurt in the fire, but the damage amounts to more than £300,000.

weddings and 666

I'm on a HIGHWAY TO HELL....or so sang the lead singer of AC/DC

There was (or is) a Highway 666 in New Mexico....

Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] Six hundred threescore [and] six. The Book of the Revelation of John.

Here is an unusual spin on getting married.....

Officials in the Netherlands have noticed an unusual number of couples setting their wedding dates for June this year. Not just any day in June but, specifically, June 6th. Although June is generally considered a popular wedding month on a world-wide scale, it seems to be drawing extra attention, as couples are hoping for an anniversary date of 666. Some assume that this is probably due to the number's Satanist association as the “number of the beast.” However, 666 is also the numerical sum of all the numbers on the roulette wheel, and we might simply be dealing here with a bunch of roulette lovers. Imagine a couple that enjoys gambling so much, the roulette wheel especially – and we shall refrain from using the word “addicts” - that they want to wed on such a creative date. The groom would remain in the classic black tuxedo, while the bride would wear red, to represent the other color of the roulette numbers. The Best Man and the Maid of Honor, representing the 0 and 00 (they can battle between them which is which), would wear the green, and the rest of the bride's maids would be dressed in various colors to represent the playing chips.
