Point noted on Knapp's paleness...Citizen Grimm,<br />Point noted on Knapp's paleness, it's there and it is really sad. I pray she repents. During that turbulent time of adolescence so many admit confusion and evil people all but pipe in, "Congratulations, that confusion/uneasyness/desire/uncertainty probably means you're a homosexual." It gets old to hear and see. It makes me want to weep for them and hold fast to all counsel from God's Word. <br /><br />However, I hope we find it pathetic that it's now default for Christian young people to log the often assumed and expected 10+ years of celibacy for no good known reason. It could be caused by elevated feelings on marriage, parental ROIs not getting met, someone's overemphasized career, American assumptions on marriage or just simply because that is how the world rolls with the issue of delaying marriage. Granted, marriage isn't for all and it isn't JK's solution to her sin, Jesus is. However, JK's thoughts seem to echo those of my single, yet faithful Christian brother's and sisters so much that I don't see how we could say it doesn't point to a larger problem of deficient and assumed teaching on marriage inside of churches today, even good and biblical ones. That is, assuming there is any teaching on marriage going on at all. Sure we can shrug it off and say that is a single's problem, but I tend to think we have so many problems within marriage because we talk so little about it while working so diliberately hard at making the next generation so unmarriable because it's easier.REMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285866237413113428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-84057230277605596082010-04-18T14:48:12.715-05:002010-04-18T14:48:12.715-05:00Earthworms that from gangs and can think!?

Other favorite lines include "Oh, sure, <i>now</i> he's just a little boy stealing little toys. But some day, he'll be a grown man stealing... stadiums and... and quarries" and the classic "Shoplifting is a victimless crime, like punching someone in the dark".<br /><br />I wonder if the gay moth solution is an outgrowth of this <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,281217,00.html" rel="nofollow">research project</a>.trogdorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452996348717802065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-68196543212346266572010-04-16T23:24:01.649-05:002010-04-16T23:24:01.649-05:00Dan, we're not just poised, we're there. ...Dan, we're not just poised, we're there.

It baffles me that people think they can pick and choose the parts of the Bible they want to believe, as if <i>they're</i> the final arbiters of right and wrong. Of course, I suppose this is what the serpent suggested in the garden, and in our sinful state, I suppose it's the lie we all default to.<br /><br />- This line, however, is beyond the pale: <i>"Anyone who has a decade of celibacy has 'complete loser' written on their back," she joked, although she still respects those who do abstain.</i> Apparently she's an Antinomian. I'm not sure which applies more: Matt 5:11-12 or Matt 5:19. Perhaps 1 Cor 3:10-15.<br /><br />- I looked at that Iceland volcano picture and thought: wow, it must take forever to mow that lawn.<br /><br />- The woman who emailed her church, and got fired from her school receptionist job? Seems pretty obvious that some Judas in the church sold her out to the school official.<br /><br />- The article says the guy who rescued his daughter from the alligator-infested swamp spent a day being interviewed in the media, while clutching a Bible. Oh, also, his name is James King. I wonder what version his Bible is?<br /><br />- Don't hunters sometimes buy deer urine, to mask their own scent?<br /><br />- The magazine air-tap is amazing. Well, what's amazing is how well the woman tries to fake a horrific assault.<br /><br />- Everytime it rains, a herd of earthworms comes squirming out of the ground and tries to get into my dry garage.CGrimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257084521984285384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-61734643105710525792010-04-16T11:52:02.096-05:002010-04-16T11:52:02.096-05:00Mmmmm.

There's a passage in Jeremiah that often comes to mind when I think about him. "Cursed is the man who trusts in man, who makes flesh his strength... For he shall be like a shrub in the desert and shall not see when good comes..." Obama is deceived, and CANNOT see when good comes because he doesn't know good from evil and therefore can't recognize good. It's very sad when one is in the clutches of Satan. <br /><br />That pic of the shark!!!! Omigoodness!!
