WE GET WHAT THEY'RE PAID FOR

The US Senate passed 2 bills this week.

1. Says that internet providers can sell all of your private information
including sites you visit to the highest bidder. This was paid for
by Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon.  The senators were paid and this is
what happened to your privacy.

2. Says that hunters can kill hibernating bears and their cubs. The
senators were paid for this by the NRA and this is how nature is
attacked.

When Senators are paid off, their decisions are not reflective of
the people, but rather their corporate employers.

GUN CONTROL

We talk about keeping guns out of the hands of dangerous
people and yet nothing is ever done.
The problem is we never seem to recognize the reason.
At least no one ever seems to discuss it.

No one wants dangerous people to have automatic weapons,
but the political leaders of this country are paid by gun
manufacturing companies and organizations.

They may agree that guns should be restricted but they can't
vote that way or they lose their pay check.
Would you publicly vote against something that your boss
wanted to happen?

Of course not because you would lose your job.
Politicians are in the same boat. They cannot vote on what
voters may want because they will lose a lot of money from the
gun groups if they do.

So here we are seeing people getting slaughtered all over the
country because politicians want to keep the money rolling in.

When bribing politicians is legal as it is in this country, that's
what happens.

WHO ARE THE TERRORISTS

There is no doubt that Isis is a terrorist organization and

Recently Sen. John McCain said that Pres Obama is
responsible for the Orlando massacre because he pulled
American troops out of Iraq too soon which led to the
rise of Isis.

Yes we agree Isis is a terrorist organization.
But the United States invaded Iraq and killed 200,000
people who had done nothing to anyone.

Then we had Saddam Hussein killed and he was the one who
controlled terrorists like Isis and in fact he was the one who
protected Christians in Iraq.

So the point is, if you kill 200,00 innocent people would not
that be considered terrorism?

We went into Viet Nam and killed 3 million people and now
we are over there building resorts and hotels with the same
country that we had previously declared as an evil.

To me it is a bit difficult to consider the other as terrorists when
you are one yourself.

WHO REALLY WON THE REPUBLICAN
PRIMARY OF TUESDAY MARCH 1 2016

We are told by the media that Donald Trump
won in a romp.

But look at the figures.

Total number of votes cast  8,336,327

For Donald Trump  2,937,794

For anybody except Donald Trump 5,398,533

In other words, anybody except Donald got twice
as many votes as Donald did.

TERRORISM ON OUR SIDE

The attack on the people of Paris was pure evil.
Evil of the worst kind.

But I have a question
We acknowledge that killing 150 innocent people
is a terrible act of terrorism.

The United States invaded Iraq and killed 200,000 innocent
people.

It was never considered terrorism.
How can that be?

Supreme Court Marriage Equality

I received an e mail from the National Association of Evangelicals
taking issue with the Supreme Courts decision on Gay Marriage.

They quoted Jesus saying marriage is between a man and
a woman and how this decision destroys the concept
of Gods ordaining marriage between a man and a woman.

This is how I answered them


 Unfortunately you are wrong about marriage.

This does not change God given marriage between one
man and one woman.

What this does is provide an exception for people who
are different so that in spite of their difference they
may experience a fuller life.

You quote Jesus about marriage but you fail to quote his
reply when asked why some men do not marry.

Jesus said, there are some eunuchs who are born that
way from their mothers womb.

He had commented on Eunuchs who make themselves that way
for the kingdom of heaven meaning priests and monks etc.

He commented on Eunuchs castrated as being made that way
by men.

He commented on Natural Eunuchs born that way.  These were
the homosexuals of today covered under the law. They were
physically whole. They were allowed to marry and adopt children.

Jesus understood there would be those like your organization who
would be against this and that is why He said, let he who can
accept this do so.

You are wrong about marriage equality and you fail to report
Jesus full teaching, and you should know better.

TERRORISM COMES IN DIFFERENT FORMS

We all have been witness to the terrible events in France
which were obvious evil of the worst kind.

The United States invaded Iraq and killed over 200,000
Muslims who had done nothing to anyone.

What do we call that?
