Self-destructive

It would seem no one else need destroy our country. Apparently, our tendency is to destroy ourselves. After years and years of fighting to get the advertising of tobacco off TV and radio, we now allow the advertising of Marijuana products on TV on prime time.

This is, of course besides all the drugs and poison we permit across our border. This, of course besides the criminals and terrorists we permit daily in among us with little or no restrictions.

Just guess we want to destroy all that our forefathers built. Once we succeed, we will just be a brief story in history that the future children just might study in schools. Then again, future historians just might cover up the history so well that any thought of by the people will totally cease.

It would seem to be the goal of the dems.

The Work is Great (if you can get it)

I just became aware of one way that Joe made his fortune. He provided 12 lectures at a college for which he received 900 grand. There are but 3 questions that come to mind.

  1. what kind of lecture might possibly be worth that kind of money.
  2. can anyone produce the cliff notes on the lecture. Was it anything other than rambling jiberish.
  3. I would like to known if there is so much as one person who is willing to admit to attending the lecture.
  4. oh one more. Can anyone point out so much as one thing worthwhile they learned from his lecture, that is besides how dumb the man is.

It is but one example of lefthanded bribery, not only for Joe but for politicians in general, on both sides of the isle. You want to know who…look at those who earn beyond their salary.

Daily Exercise

Over the years I’ve come to the conclusion that a brisk daily walk of 2 to 3 miles is a very good form of exercise. The muscles in the legs are some of the largest in the body and exercising them helps in circulation. Not only does this help to distribute the nutrition but it also helps in the collection of waste.

Though I am not a doctor, I’ve confirmed my thoughts with a number of MDs. I only wish I found this out many years earlier. I believe I would have never reached 280 lbs. More importantly, I likely would have never had some of my other heath probems, such as diabetes.

However, walking 3 miles a day does require some time. At 4 miles an hour, we are talking 45 minutes. Some people like to listen to music or an audio book. I guess a person could, oddly use the time for writing; or more accurately, dictate books, papers or maybe reports. I know of folks that talk almost 500 words a minute. After a month or two, an author could almost dictate “War and Peace. ” Well, maybe 1/2 of it.

On the other hand, you just might use it for prayer time. It might give a new meaning to walking with God. Just maybe God will like it too. I can’t see it hurting anything. By the way, you just might learn to enjoy your time with God.

On the other hand, some just might question your sanity, especially should you explain.

As an aside, might I suggest you non believers try this, that is if you’re willing to chance it.

Who Do You Trust?

It’s an interesting question, one you should ask of yourself as well as others. I must admit the question was prompted by an old TV show where the question was the title. During the show the contestants were asked if if they trusted themselves or their spouse to answer a question.

However, we must admit that we make decisions of of trust, not only daily, but by the minute. We trust the others to follow the rules of the road. We trust those who work in stores restaurants, mechanics and many other merchants. Most of us take it for granted that when we turn that key in the ignition, the car will start. (Or we become angry) We flip the light switch in a room and, usually the room is lit.

I have noted that, according to trust, people can be divided into at least 3 categories. As in the national motto, some of us trust God. We are called Christians. Some trust themselves and not God. I call them libertarians… conservatives without morals. Then, there are the liberals. Their motto is, in government we trust. In general, they lie, cheat, and steal all for themselves and the advancements of government control. In many cases they don’t even know it. But if they have no trust in God or themselves, who do they trust.

They rely on government for medicine, welfare and their next meal. If they don’t get substance from God or their own hands, from whom will they get it? The almighty government will provide but only if the almighty government is almighty. On the other hand, Christians and libertarians don’t want want to rely so much on government. So they really prefer keeping government size down.

I have an idea. Let’s put all the liberals in 25 states…their choice. Then we stand back and watch to see how long it takes for them to destroy those states. When everyone has their trust in their government, it will take very little time for their government to fail. I suppose some states will last longer than others. Some may actually figure things out and stop putting ultimate control in the hands of fallible humans.

Where Are the Apologies?

They now admit the China virus started in the the labs. They now admit that masks provide little to no protection. It’s been established that schools that stayed open were better than schools that were closed. I am sure that they will eventually have to admit that hydroxychloroquine actually works as a preventive to the China virus. While I sit here coughing, I wish I could have acquired a few thousand tabs of it before it struck here in Mississippi. Maybe there are a few who lost loved ones who wish they could have gotten there share too.

Yet, where are the apologies. Where are the apologies to these who were shamed, even though everyone knows they were right. Where are the apologies to those who suffered. Where are the apologies to those who lost friends and relatives.

The dems will not apologize. They dare not admit to their wrong doings. They know it would mean election losses. To the dems, nothing is more important than the elections. Ultimately, it is about control.

That is why you will never hear any kind of an apology, that is unless mandated by a court. Now that is something I would like to see. I would really like to live long enough to see. Unfortunately, I don’t think the Lord will let me live that long.

By the way, time to put Fauci in prison. He helped develop the virus. Don’t expect any apology from him either.

Gospel?

I was saved at 13. However, over the years, some of my thoughts have varied. To be sure, my basic faith has only grown stronger. Once I put my salvation in the unfailing hands of Jesus Christ, that has not wavered one bit.

However, from time-to-time I have considered and reconsidered some of things that are still being considered by many who are smarter than me. In addition, I do learn things I didn’t know before.

I guess one thing that bothered me over the years is the use of the word gospel. So, I sat down and did some research on the word. Certainly, I cannot claim to be the end all expert on the word. Indeed, I am likely going to upset some, if not all those who read this.

I guess the thing that prompted my thinking was the misuse of the words, gospel truth. Technically, it literally means good news truth. To me, it simply makes no sense. If if it does, maybe someone can explain that to me, especially when used completely outside Christianity. I mean, consider when a criminal is saying to the detective, “I’m telling you the gospel truth.”

The word, gospel comes from old English, god spell meaning good story. So as we read the word gospel from the Bible, it is a word interpreted from the Greek and then from old English. Why not just avoid the extra translations and simply translate straight to modern English. Let’s just say good news.

And for sure, let’s avoid good news truth. To be sure, the good news as recorded by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John is good news. However, saying good news in front of any story does not automatically make it the truth.

As long as I am on the subject of the good news, might I suggest you read the good news according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. It’s not just good news. It’s the best news for us all.

Suppose She Done Some’n Wrong?

4 years ago Lightfoot won with 73% of the vote.

This time she lost with 17% of the vote.

Do you suppose she did something wrong. Do you suppose the voters are sending her a message. Even so, my guess is that she didn’t get it, given her speech. She actually had the gall to claim she brought real improvements in crime.

Now, the question remains, are any of the dems going to learn from the voters’ message. My guess is, NO!

Who is Talking?

I’ve seen the same commercial dozens of times. I’m sure the man or woman that designed it will be glad to know that I am well aware that there are 2 scoops of rasins in the rasin bran.

On the other hand, I never bought for a second that the sun was really talking. It was some man speaking into a microphone and pretending. I have it on good authority that suns, moons and planets lack voices or brains. Besides, they are horrible at taking direction.

Hence, I will never have any idea of who the voice is behind the sun in the commercial. On the other hand, I do have a few guesses as to who the puppeteers are that control the puppet in the oval office. It seems to take a team. Some control what he says. Some control where he goes, when he sits or stands. Occasionally, someone tells him to raise his voice or when to whisper. Truth is we all know. All we need do is look to see. It’s sort-of casual to the most obvious observer.

Mistakes?

Anyone who has read any of my books knows that I am prone to mistakes. I leave words or phrases out or I put them in twice. In some cases I redundantly use also at the front of a sentence and use too at the end. In spite of every effort, I use there instead of their and vice-versa. Don’t know why. I really do know the difference.

When I wrote “Survivors,” I realized I had a tendency to spell the word ers instead of ors. So before I released the book, I did a search on “survivers,” and made 5 corrections. Then of all things, when I released the book, I spelt the title ers. Now that’s dumb and I was prompted reminded of it. I thanked the woman and made the correction. By the way, others who read the book liked it.

Now, it would seem that the dems are trying to convince us that Fauci and his friends were simply making mistakes about the China virus (the spread, the masks, closing schools, the source, etc, etc. and so forth) Here’s news for Fauci and all his comrads. Even I don’t make that many mistakes. That tells me it was all on purpose. It means they caused millions of deaths on purpose, as in intentionally.

If it was all by mistake, maybe that’s worse… that we would have someone in charge of our national health even more prone to mistakes than me.

Loyalty?

It makes a person wonder about the loyalty of the leadership of AARP. Are they more loyal to their members from whom they get millions or to corporate bribers, from whom they get hundreds of millions.

Do you suppose that was why they came out in favor of Obama care even though most of their members were agin-it.
