I ran across this quote today: "… assuming one has the basics for survival, food and shelter, then one can make a good even happy life at any level of income. There may even be a feeling of relief to be forced to switch from managing and warehousing things to a more Spartan life but one that is richer intellectually and spiritually. The best things in life remain free. Poverty of the wallet is nothing compared to the poverty of spirit." It brought to mind questions that have been on my mind for years Why do today's Christians need so much? Is poverty necessarily a bad thing? If poverty is not a bad thing why do so many shun it at the expense of their Christian co…

School “lunch inspector” replaces child’s healthy lunch with “nuggets,” bills mother by Joel McDurmon on Feb 15, 2012 They have a “lunch inspector,” but they’re a few fries short of a happy meal. A North Carolina mother was perturbed when she learned that the healthy lunch she packed for her 4-year old was replaced by cafeteria food, most of which the child wouldn’t eat. Carolina Journal Online reports, A preschooler at West Hoke Elementary School ate three chicken nuggets for lunch Jan. 30 because a state employee told her the lunch her mother packed was not nutritious. The girl’s turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips, and apple juice did not meet U.S. D…

Any of you that have a "smartphone" should download the Youversion bible app by lifechurch.tv from the android market. The best thing about this app is that you can listen to the bible. I used to have listen to the bible first by tape than by CD. The probelm with this was it was cubersome. The CD set had something like 30 discs in it. Not very user friendly. I highly recommend this. It's free and you'll be able to listen to the entire KJV off of your phone.

I am just an ignorant old country boy, but to me it seems the scientific hucksters are managing to get government money to work on another version of a perpetual motion machine. Is it possible to put X energy in and get X+ energy out? http://www.wnd.com/2012/02/scientists-aim-to-create-oil-using-photosynthesis/ "Perpetual motion describes hypothetical machines that operate or produce useful work indefinitely and, more generally, hypothetical machines that produce more work or energy than they consume, whether they might operate indefinitely or not. There is undisputed scientific consensus that perpetual motion in a closed system would violate the first law of therm…

To leave a reply at many sites on the internet they require you have a facebook account. I wonder if I can set up a dummy account just so I can leave comments on some of these websites...or, would that be against... Ephesians 4:25 "Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another." Some may ask why such an aversion to facebook? I don't know why, it just seems to me the Lord doesn't want me in it. No, I've never prayed about it.

Psalms 116 1 I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. 2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. 3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. 4 Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. 5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful. 6 The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me. 7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee. 8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from fa…

Did I hear someone complaining, that’s not fair? How would you like for God to deal with you in a fair manner? Ps 103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. Remember, if God dealt with you fairly both mercy & grace would be thrown out.

Ron Paul: Reactionary or Visionary By Patrick J. Buchanan Friday - February 3, 2012 After his fourth-place showing in Florida, Ron Paul, by then in Nevada, told supporters he had been advised by friends that he would do better if only he dumped his foreign policy views, which have been derided as isolationism. Not going to do it, said Dr. Paul to cheers. And why should he? Observing developments in U.S. foreign and defense policy, Paul's views seem as far out in front of where America is heading as John McCain's seem to belong to yesterday's Bush-era bellicosity. Consider. In December, the last U.S. troops left Iraq. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta now says that all…

Counter checks, do any of you know what they are? That's what I remember them being called, in our old store we always had 2 or 3 pads of counter checks laying on the checkout counter.
