Recently a group of scientists claim that they have witnessed a subatomic particle go faster than the speed of light. This would violate the fundamental laws of physics. I also have some problems with the idea that they are capable of measuring something faster than the speed of light.
More and more we are being bombarded with nonsense. The attack is really an attack on the average persons understanding of anything. I feel sorry for children today and for people who do not investigate things for themselves. The world has not changed, what has changed is how the fundamentals of life are explained to people.
For thousands of years the fundamentals of life were pretty simple. We are born, we find the love of our life, marry and have children. You work to provide for your family and seek to teach your children to be decent people. People of integrity who help others, tell the truth and seek to be useful members of society.
Today children are taught that they are just animals, life is short and you should live for pleasure. We teach them that healthy relationships are not possible and that when people no longer benefit you that you just move on. We are being told so much nonsense that society fails.
I watched a new video on DMT, I will not link to it. Within the next few years people will be able to modify their bodies using technology and gene therapy, they will be able to design themselves if they have enough money. By taking DMT they can open their minds to the "spirit world". How is any of this sensible or useful? What happens when we cannot even agree on what is real? How will people even know when they are being lied to?
The movie Avatar is a good example of the future that people want, they want to be able to have superhuman powers without earning them, they want to be cartoon characters in a cartoon world. If you are a parent, unplug your child from the internet and television for a week.
I know that the people that read my blog are better informed than most or they wouldn't bother reading it. We are headed towards very bad times, we are headed to self-enslavement. True enslavement to technology is our total reliance on it for making our decisions.
We are raising a generation that believes in little. This is not true of all young people, many are paying attention; but, there are a lot of lies out there and just as soon as you think you get it, you have usually been fooled.

A Spare Moment
Well, I have finished my initial posts on my new blog. I went through the first chapter of Genesis and provided commentary and questions. I wanted to have it done before this coming Sunday so that I could give people the web address and they would have something to read and consider during the week.
Having said that, I have been keeping up on the news. One story I read said that sperm banks no longer wanted sperm from redheads. Not enough women wanted it. This is very dangerous, we are choosing to have less diversity. Long term this could lead to us having less ability to survive as a species. The greater the diversity, the greater a species ability to survive. That is basic Darwinian theory.
On another front. The Palestinians want to be a recognized country and many Israelis want to be able to pray and rebuild the temple on the mound. What if one were traded for the other, what a test that would be for Israel. What if the Muslim world would allow Israel to rebuild the temple in exchange for Palestine becoming it's own independent nation?
We are not in the "end times", the temple has to be rebuilt first; but, if that were the agreement that were reached, I would start paying a lot more attention. Be well.

Maybe Tidbits
I have been asked to continue this blog and am considering it; but, if I do it will not be a daily posting; but, postings as something of merit occurs. I will absolutely consider it. Perhaps I can make a post each week and include news of the week, we shall see.
As the blog ends
ANYONE who has followed this blog, anyone can ask me via comment for the new blog's address and I will send it to them if they include their e-mail address in the comment. The comment will not be published unless you request it and I still moderate.
There are people who read this blog for the non-religious stuff and I want them to know the new blog is only religious, I seek to trick no person. I am not into tricks and lies. Those who wish to read my words in the future need to know that it is spiritual only. I do not wish to trick anyone into reading about religion.
I have over 800 posts on this blog, the vast majority are not about religion and continue to be found on searches. I feel a responsibility to leave this blog up and not destroy it, primarily because of Pastor Daniels; but, also because of those who chose to read it. I just don't choose to keep it current, I cannot do so in a fair way. I have a "mission" and it is more important to me. I love you all.

Goodbye
I have started my new blog. I will not post it's address here. Anyone who has been a reader of this blog is more than welcome to request the new address and I will provide it; but, the new blog will be about God. I may discuss current events; but, it will always be with a spiritual framework.
I am leaving this blog up; however, I will not be posting here often or possibly at all. I send my best to all who have come here over the years and truly appreciate the experience.
This blog has been a true blessing to me. Everything has it's time and it's time has passed. Thank you for having shared this journey with me and may God share his love with you. Be well.

I Learned a Lesson Today
For a number of reasons, half of the people who had planned to attend our service today were unable to come. It was a good thing because I needed to learn a lesson. I needed to commit myself and I hadn't, I was reluctant and I need to be committed 100%.
A young man came in who we did not know. He stayed longer than he should have because he had a prior engagement. For some reason he just decided to come in and listen (he had been in the room next door). I had said that if just one person came then I would come. I never want to walk into an empty room, I always want their to be two or more.
Today was the day that I thought of Pastor Carol Daniels. I thought about how she did just that, came in not knowing if anyone else would come. I cannot compare my talking to a few people to her lifelong commitment; but, if she could drive as far as she did on the chance that someone might come then I guess I can do the same and I don't have to drive far.

Not a Day of Rest for Me
It is Sunday again and I have work to do. I did all my housekeeping activities yesterday so that I would have only one thing to do today. I have spent all week thinking about what I will say today and still am unsure. I have about 15 different discussions in my head that I might have.
I read the news today and came across an interesting article. Warren Buffet has called on more taxes for the rich. He complained that the rich, including himself, have been coddled long enough and that most don't even pay the same percentage as the middle class. One sleazy politician has said that if Mr. Buffet wants to pay more he should just send a check. I wonder how much money that politician has received from wealthy friends?
We are living in the worst economic times in our nations history and people are in very bad situations, our friends and neighbors are out of work and our children have little to look forward to if we don't give a little. Why would any politician want to see us into a third world country, because all they care about is themselves. I commend Mr. Buffet because he does not wish to see that happen and neither do I.
