Global warming is junk science foisted on the public by environmentaists driving some rejected POS econobuggy from the 70's whose afraid of being squished by my 4x4 or SUV. What's the temp gone up? 2-3 degrees in the past 75-100 years? Heck, for that matter, why have the polar ice caps actually gotten thicker?

On a separate note, I am growing tired of this monsoon. It has cause a sink-hole on my property where an old well used to be. Dang thing has been filled in and doing fine for about 20 yrs.

Sorry MG. I did't mean anything by it. And the quote was random.

If there's a worse idea going than locking people up for drug use, it's probably locking them up in close proximity to some tyranical altruist who wants to 'help' them with a problem that probably doesn't exist

Just thought I'd put in my two cents, seeing as how I'm spending the rest of my (hehe) liquid assets on an ark here in Alabama.  To the fella living in Utah now, smart move... I've never in my life seen this much rain this time of year.  I think it's El Nino or something like that.

And, I just had to say that Ginger rocks ALL for what she said about the table turning over episode, and how Jesus pretty much was a thorn in the side of the "experts" and "scholars".  

And, as Mark Lowry says, you have to love a guy whose first miracle was keeping a party going...

like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

Here in Sunny south florida I have fueled up the trusty Evinrude in case the need for floatable transport arises.  Rain every day, night and then the lightning which gets me running to shut down my computer as the DSL modem starts to hum.
Tree frogs have taken over...those guys don't need an ark.  My yard had 2-6 inch long flying frogs bouncing about. Those footpads are rather odd to feel on your forehead as you go out the door at 6am with no coffee onboard yet!!
The cane toads are on the move.  When a toad the size of a dinner plate is eating outta the Golden retriever's bowl, and running the dog off to do it, higher ground starts looking good.  Higher ground in Virginia or Wisconsin...

Once again, I am amazed at the fountain of knowledge that is your brain, Ms. Ginger!

Jesus was a rebel. It's true! And I like to think that had they been around in those days - Jesus would have owned a Harley.  

After all, as noted earlier, something has to be said for a guy whose first miracle was providing the best wine anyone had ever tasted, who hung out with a an ex-hooker, a bunch of ruffians, skeptics, and other "sinners" - a guy who literally flipped out on the vendors in the Temple and got away with it, who snubbed His nose at the laws of the day, and was a homeless drifter who attracted attention every where He went.

Yep, there's no doubt about it. Jesus was a biker without a ride.  :cool:

That's my two drachma.

It amazes me that people think the disciples never embellished a single story. How can they think that? Weren't a good portion of the disciples fishermen by trade?

Clay, is that an Elian crack?

You're right, though. The desciples wrote the gospels years after the facts and they don't even jive with each other in the particulars.

The fatal pedagogical error is to throw answers, like stones, at the heads of those who have not yet asked the questions.

Hi Ginger,

Good posts, I always enjoy reading your stuff.
Sounds like you were (are) a fighter like me!

". . . Western society has become increasingly decadent.  People have come to lead lives largely devoid of joy or gradeur.  They are inslaved by a morality that says "no" to life and to all that affirms it.  They have become part of a herd, part of a mass that is only too wiling to do what it is told.  The herd animal, he held, is cowardly, reactionary, fearful, desultory, and vengeful.  The mediocrity of Western civilization, he believed, was a reflection of these qualities.  Nietzsche was under no illusions about the fate of the mass of mankind: only the rare and isolated individual is likely to escape a trivial life and pathetic fate, he maintained."

-Friedich Wilhelm Nietzche (1844-1900)

The way in which a man accepts his fate and all the suffering it entails, the way in which he takes up his cross, gives him ample opportunity-even under the most difficult cirumstances-to add deeper meaning to his life.  It may remain brave, dignified an

Thanks. I'm real keeon on ol'e Freddy too. At least, I've never seen a quote from him that I didn't like. I should find some of his books.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
