Criminal vs. Victim

Michael Schiavo is an animal, a criminal, a scum, and is hiding something. Terri Schiavo is an innocent victim, being denied what she is entitled to and has a secret to tell if she could talk.

One (or two) simple question; why does Michael Schiavo want her dead? He has moved on, started a new family has two kids with another woman. Why wouldn't he divorce Terri and let her parents take custody of her (as they want to) and fully support her and her costs for care? Why does he want her to suffer greatly through starvation and then when she is dead to have her body cremated immediately? Why no autopsy? Why does Michael want to deprive this woman the right to life that we all have? She deserves to live just as much as anyone else on this planet does. There is no written record of her that says she wanted to be starved to death or killed in the event that she could not express herself. Michael is a liar! You see, there are reports from the doctor that prove that Michael has something in the past that he wants to hide and make go away. And the only thing left that could put him away for something he did.. is Terri speaking or communicating. The doctors did a bone scan (something like that) and it came back and the report showed that she has fractures in her chest that resulted from being beaten by someone at some time. Was Michael beating her? Did Michael Schiavo cause this woman's brain damage? Is he the reason she is in the state that she is in? That is the conclusion that I come to given all the facts. Oh and by the way, Terri is not in a 'constant vegetative state' as the wacko judges and far left liberals want you to believe. I have seen a bunch of videos of Terri in her current state and she is very responsive, she can see and recognize people, she can respond to different things such as music, talking, and tracking things. I guess it doesn't help much that the gentleman representing Michael Schiavo is a big 'right to die' advocate. George J. Felos is Michael's attorney and I think is just as sick in the head as Michael. Here are some more details; Michael got a huge amount of money (not sure the amount, but its in the millions) and it was to take care of Terri. He does not do what he should do. He ordered that her teeth not be brushed and havent been for more than 5 years. He ordered that they do not give her therapy or rehab of any kind. I'm gettin too digusted with this guy.. i'll stop here!!

In a nutshell; If Michael wanted the money ,, take it, but let Terri's parents take care of her. Michael has to be hiding something terrible he did to her because why else would he want her killed and cremated immediately? WHY? She has the right to live in any state that God allows her to be put in. She could be learning an immense amount of lessons from the Lord as she lays in her current state. The Lord could be using this time to teach her all kinds of things! And when God sees fit, he will bring her back to a more able state. I don't think anyone has a problem with Michael walking away from her and leaving her to the care and expense of her parents. Well almost no one, the only person that doesn't want that to happen, is Michael Schiavo who has something in his past he is trying to make go away. Well, Michael, you scum bag, you trash, you filth, give this innocent woman her right to live and don't torture and murder her as you are trying to do!!

This makes me sick, time for a commercial break!

Church Canceled!

Oh wait, no it's not! I was listening to KYW1060 today and heard all the school closings and community cancelations. Along with all the public schools that were closing early and canceling evening classes, there was the churches in our great city that were canceling evening services. That got me thinking about who must run these churches, or at least make the decisions for the church. It got me thinking about the commitment and the passion people have for the Lord and the "Do not forsake the assembling.................. " verse. You see, a few weeks back there was a football game in our city. It was a championship game but none-the-less a football game. We had the biggest snowfall in a couple years and the whole city was shut down for a time.. schools, churhes, stores, etc. everything buy the most dedicated, passionate, worshipful people in our city,.. no, these are not Christians, muslims, Jews or anything other religion, these are Eagles fans. My thought was,, "we can't dig out a church, but we can dig out Lincoln Financial Field inside and out with no problem." btw, yes we dug our church out for that Sunday. I just thought it was a bit amusing! :)

Give me Liberty!

This is how I usually feel on Fridays at 5 o'clock. But this week I could have used that feeling on Thursday. Oh well, I guess i'll just have to wait another day. Anyone got a job opening? This job is gettin old!

A Prison of the mind

I write letters frequently, some people correspond with me daily, some weekly etc. Of all the people that I write to one of them is an inmate in a Florida Correctional Facility. While my other friends and contacts write about life and what they do and want to do and what they have and want to get, the prisoner is quite content in his position. The people on the outside complain, and talk about what they don't have and how oppressed they are, and how hard it is etc. While my buddy in prison talks about how awesome God's love and grace is and how he knows God is in control over every single aspect of his life. He says that he is content with knowing that God wants him where he is right now and will be until God chooses ot move him to another season of his life. It is amazing how we see what we don't have and yearn for more more more.. not appreciating what we do have and my friend in prison sees it all and understands that even though he is not a free man, 'he has it all'. And that all is Jesus Christ. That makes me wonder.. "who is the real prisoner here? Us or him?

A little sad but alot funny!

As I pulled up to park today at noon, a man flagged a cop over and pointed out what seemed to be a mentally disturbed man hitting cars with a mop. yes I said a mop! When the officer approached this mop wielding gentelman he got into some neat kung fu looking stances and wanted to fight the cop. It was so funny to watch!! When other cops got on the scene they tried to tackle the guy but he got away and tried to get into a squad car, the cop slammed the door and hit the guy a few times.. they finally got him cuffed and in the back of the car and the guy tried to kick the windows out! so they got him back out and shackled his ankles..this pic shows him finally being transferred from a squad car to the wagon. It was just a little excitement for our Sunday afternoon!

Right and wrong

Is there always a right and wrong in every issue? Is there a truth about every issue that can be traced back to the Bible? I was thinking about human cloning, is it right or wrong? God creates human life wouldn't it then be sacred? The Bible says that "all life is sacred". So if all life is sacred, wouldn't the human species be the 'most sacred' ? I would say yes, based on the fact that we are the only life form that has an eternal soul. So if God creates us, he also creates our soul. If scientists clone a human being, it would look like a human, walk like a human, talk like a human and think like a human the only big difference is the cloned human being would have no soul! The scientists may be able to create an embryo by cloning, but they cannot create a soul. So the creature that they clone would then be like a pig or a rabbit, a creature who lives and dies with no afterlife. Now some questions about the new cloned humans; what could we use them for? THey could be raised on a farm to harvest the organs, why not, if there is a shortage.. it is not inhumane to kill them, they aren't real humans. If you killed them you couldn't get charged with murder because they would have no civil rights.. they could only have the same rights as animals! They could be raised for servants.. bring back slaves.. why not? They are like mules now with no souls.. they are souless aninmals in human form... So to answer the question, Yes cloning is wrong! No matter what benefit it would be to the human race, God created humans and we are messing with what only He can create. So there are people who believe that it would benefit the human race to clone.. there were also those who thought it would benefit the human race to wipe out the Jews, but just as they were then.. they are WRONG!

Cursing and Foul Language

I've had the privilege of reading several people's opinions on curings/swearing via their blogs recently. I must say that it is very interesting at the least. At first I thought that I would comment on the blogs, but then I thought it may come across as me being judmental toward their position/opinion on the subject. So I resorted to blogging my thoughts in what one blogger adequately said about it; "on this blog I have the freedom to use whatever words I think are appropriate." Very well said. So on to my thoughts; As far as Christians, I think that the Bible is pretty much upfront about cursing/swearing. But I am sure that there are many opinions on it. To say that my parents felt this way , but now we are the next generation and we curse alot more frequently is kinda weird.. Do we now read a diffrerent Bible, or not read one at all? The Bible hasn't changed from when our grandparents were our age, God's Word has been truth for thousands of years, why would it change now? I think it would make alot of us get angry and have a problem if we sat in church on Sunday and the pastor was explaining how bad things happen when we disobey God and he were to paraphrase like this, "King ____ wanted to go into battle but God told him no, but King ____ thought to himself F___ that, im going anyway". I know that it's an extreme example, but if the language is not welcome in church, then why else where. Hey, don't get me wrong, I am in no way saying that I am more righteous or holier than anyone, I use language that I would NEVER use around certain people, esp. my pastor and more so Jesus if He were here. I am not proud that I do and am making a conscious effort not to. But for me to say that I am learning how to use certain taboo words in their correct context sounds alittle absurd. I really don't care how much people curse or swear, I live in it all day at work, some of my friends use it, whatever. But it's the fact that a person could say, "I'm a Christian, there is nothing wrong with using 'every word in the book' " just sounds funny. Is it really a sin to use that kind of language? Could using that kind of language really "Get you box seats in hell"?? Idk, but as with any other life question, if you want to find the 'truth' of the matter, turn to the Truth, God's Word...
James 3:10 "Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be."
Proverbs 4:24 "Put away perversity from your mouth; keep corrupt talk far from your lips."
Proverbs 10:21 "The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut out."
Those are just a few of the many verses in the Bible that speak about our mouth and the words we use. "Praise and cursing out of hte same mouth"? The Apostle James says "this should not be". But all the verses that speak in relation to our lips speaking praise and cursning and things like that .. one of them says it pretty clear to me. I'm sure you all are familiar with Psalm 19:14 where the Psalmist says "May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer." We sing that song in our praise service and when we worship. We know the lyrics as;
May the words of my mouths and the thoughts of my heart. bless your name bless your name Jesus and the deeds of the day and the truth in my way speak of You speak of You Jesus.. for this is what im glad to do it's time to live a life of love that pleases You. and I will give my all to You. Surrentder everything I have and follow You... I'll follow You.
Lord, will You be my vision. Lord, will You be my guide. Be my hope, be my light and the way. And I'll look not for riches nor praise on this earth. Only you'll be the first in my heart.

The first part of the song which is based on Psalm 19 is most relevant to this post. One minute we pray that the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart be pleasing to God and then we freely use curse/swear words in the name of completeing our vocab or fitting in our generation, or just giving into peer pressure. I guess our generation of Christians may soon be called the "Cursing Christians". Oxymoron?

Thats all for now on this post, but I've been thinking, after reading on this blog that (my parents' generation tends to be a little more reserved (read: saying 'shit' is equivalent to purchasing box seat tickets to hell). I've been that what does send a person to hell? who goes and what makes them go there? Is everyone inherently saved or are some who think they are saved able to do things that send them south instead of singing lala with the angels? (those of you who know me, know what I meant by that) :)


the other source for wriring this post (i feel I should share) is this blog. Which I read faithfully along with about 10 others. I find them all insanely interesting, amusing, educational, and yes.. some are downright insane.. but that's what makes our little world go round.

I'm convinced-everyone loves to complain

You ever hear someone complain about how it's unfair that all our jobs are sent overseas to Japan, Taiwan and China and we import all our stuff from them. We shut down our factories in the U.S. and import from other countries instead. Maybe you are one of them who complains about our jobs going to other countries. A guy from work was complaining about it and I'll ask you (if you are one of them) the same thing I asked him. If we brought those jobs back to the U.S. and manufactured here instead of overseas, would you be happier? Before you answer yes, consider this; almost everything you use daily has some part of it that is made overseas. It would be impossible to live strictly off of things made in the USA. If we were to bring the jobs back, the prices of those goods would no doubt go up steeply in price. And then, don't miss this, the same people would continue to complain but this time, about the price. So it just goes to show you that we as humans just love to complain, it somehow makes us feel intelligent if we can point out the faults of others i guess. And yes, i'm sure someone will complain about this post. :)

Still here

I'm still here and still progressing. I've wondered and observed how we can get so caught up in something that almost forget about our own life and our purpose. whether it be school, a job, a relationship or whatever. Just an observation. I also came to the conclusion that with certain ppl no matter what you say, they will challenge it with something they say is fact but really it is just a challenge because if you are taking to them, 'you are always wrong'. zzz time

Drums

These are Jessica's new drums. She is the drummer for 'Toolbox' .. and yeah, it's a band. those are not her legs. I was threatened and had to tell you that.

New engagement and brides fam starting fights

So my brother got engaged on Saturday. I am assuming that I will be his best man or whatever you call it.. .. the bride-to-be's maid of honor had this to say about me. "I think my Uncle Walt may have an extra suit". (her uncle walt is about 350lbs.) I say to her.. that she's not lookin to slim these days either and maybe she ought to hit up her aunt carol m. for an extra dress or TWO!

As you may have noticed, I haven't been online in awhile. Actually, in contrast to my previous online habits I have been spending an average of 1 hour per week online! Imagine that. That should explain alot anyway. Been taking an interest in digital photography got some cool shots of the kiddies snow boarding.. but since im not on my computer. i cannot post them on here. the eagles go to the super bowl this year.. but honestly.. I couldn't care less.. I know alot of ppl go nuts about the game but after seeing how some ppl neglect church because of it and get so into it it becomes there life.. it turns me off.. I guess just like everyting else.. there is a right way and a wrong way.. But why should i worry.. i dont care about them. btw, Philly is not a suburb.. so all yall in the suburbs or other cities.. they aren't 'your eagles' if you are north of the city.. cheer on the pats or something :)

Where have you been?

I've been here.. but haven't been blogging. Just not in the mood lately. If you know where the find the 'easy life' let me know.. I still haven't found it.

Dear Dad--Thank You

Dear Dad,
I want to take time to write you. Because lately we don't talk like we used to. You see, I was thinking about all the things that we've been through. And I wanna say right now that I really miss you. And you used to tell me when I was a little dude, that there was nothing that we couldn't get through. So after it all I want to take the time to thank you. And let you know that everyday I try to pray for you. See I appreciate everything that you did. You were there for me ever since I was a little kid. You taught me to be a man and just how to live. And when I needed it you always had love to give. The tears are running down my face as I write this! Cause you not being here is what I really miss. And one thing that I just really wish, is that you know I really love you so i'll tell you this. Daddy, thank you for being my Daddy, I just want to thank you Daddy, thank you for being my Daddy.

We might blame ourself for you and Mom goin 'Up', but i want to tell you 'we don't beat ourself up'. That's in the past now, what's done is done. You'll always be my dad and I'll always be your son! Sometime the most important words, we don't say enough. Sometime love hurts and hurts way too much. Sometime we act the very worst to the ones we love. It don't occurr but sometime we just want a hug. And mom I just wanna thank you for everything, for all the times that you were there to provide my needs. And I thank you for always just helping me despite all the trouble sometimes that I know I used to be. You've shown me just what a mom's supposed to be. And it still means so much to know you'd be proud of me. And just to be your son is what i'm proud to be. So just in love I say thanks and all your kids sing; Mommy, thank you for being my Mommy, I just want to thank you Mommy, thank you for being my Mommy.

For awhile Mom we really didn't talk much. And even lately it's kinda hard just to get in touch. You wouldn't believe just how much your little boy's grown up. It seems like yesterday that I was so young. Time passes so fast but you know what? It's words like 'I love you' I never said enough. And everything that you've done means so much. Thank you mom, and that's love from your loving son.

And Lord I want to thank you for what you've done. You're my Father in Heaven and i'm your son. Your the source of where my peace comes from. And you can still be my Father if I now cease to have one. I was lost but you changed the outcome, you put your Son on the cross where He just bled and hung. You laid down your life, and there's no greater love for someone.... And that's exactly what you've done! Jesus, thank you for being my Jesus. I just want to thank you Jesus, thank you for being my Jesus.

"words were changed from a KJ song"

Hightlights? Resolutions?

Well it does not seem like one whole year since we threw our last New Year's Party!! I cannot believe it is a new year. But believe it or not, it is here, 2005 ! I've been thinking,, what are my highlights, my lowlights of 2004 and what are my goals for 2005?

Here is a list of things that I have learned in the past year:

1. To have a good time all you need is family, they are the best friends and when really thought about, they rock the world!
2. Death sucks
3. The Huf side of my family far out-rocks the Myers for being able to have fun just hanging out with each other!
4. God WILL provide; God WILL heal; God WILL protect; IF we give him a chance and get out of way.
5. My sibs are the best friends I have.
6. Aonch has no limits when it comes to obnoxicision.
7. Actually im tired and can t really think of alot of things

im going ot bed.. more later

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! if you are in the area. stop by our loud humble party!

Warning!

The great Tsunami that hit Asia must have been an awesome sight! Logesh Monoharan my sposored child lives right outside of Coimbatore which is really far south in India. I have heard that they got hit pretty hard with the deaths. The death toll has reached 50,000 today and is expected to keep rising by the tens of thousands. If Logesh is still alive it is only by the mercy of God!
Something that I have noticed over the past few years is this: that people in general refuse to believe that anything is a sign of the 'end of the world'. They refuse to believe that the prophecies in the book of Revelation may actualy be coming to fruition in our lifetime. The Bible speaks of "wars and rumors of wars" "violence will increase" and "natural disasters will increase". With the Tsunami taking the lives of so many people with little warning and tens of thousands of men and women getting slaughtered daily in what we justify as a war, what's next? So many Christians want things to change as far as fighting, wars etc. But they still think that we should go to war! It seems that they will justify war with what the warriors did in the Old Testament and how they prayed for victory over thousands of soliders.. AND got their answer to prayer! Jesus Christ was born and changed all that! He gave us a simple list of "COMMANDMENTS" not suggestions.. commandments.. and they are written very very simple so that even the most un-educated could understand them.. and they do.. It is the elite well educated, with their own agendas that twist it to allow them to do the things Jesus said "NO" to. For instance.... very simple.. "Do Not Kill" ... how much more simple could he have said it? When Jesus gave that command he didn't give any loopholes and their is none now. If you kill for any reason... you blatently disobey the Word of God! But people will ask,, What if it is in self defense.. we have a right to protect ourselves.. right? we have the right to decide our own fate too.. Jesus also said the following.. "Love your neighbor" "pray for those who persecute you" "If anyone 'takes' your hat,, give your coat also" "If someone strikes on one cheek,, turn the other.." So after hearing what Jesus had to say to us.. where do we find the right to kill someone else? There is none.. God's Word says "do not kill" anyone who does will face judgement.. simple as that!!
It seems so easy to be a Christian if we are able to only follow the parts of the Bible that we want to and to just make the other part say what we want it to say.. or to do our best to find a loophole in the Word so that we can do our own thing and still feel like we are in the center of God's will. But the horrible fact is that we are only fooling ourselves and that we will be sorry on the day of judgment where the God who made the universe will judge our lives on earth against the Holy Word that He wrote himself!
People seem to try to push to the back of their minds.. the things that are happening in the world so they do not have to face the fact that the end is coming and it is probably closer than any of us think it is! The thing is, we go on with our daily lives and because are getting steadily worse but at a relatively slow pace.. it is constantly normal to us to have these things happen all around us.

My sib got engaged over Christmas.. but I didnt win the bet

Last Christmas I bet about an engagement.. one of my sibs got engaged over Christmas.. but I didnt win the bet

Merry Christmas

I just got done reading some blogs that I read regularly. I chuckled at one and out right laughed at another.. was it yours? you'll never know! Anyway.. I wrote this time for one reason to say:

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!

And speaking of which, some people would get offended by me mentioning the Christian holiday and not the Jewish or African holiday.. My opinion on that.. Get offended and get over it. Anymore it seems that people think they have a constituional right not to be offended and if they are offended by something they have the right to sue! FOR WHAT? You now get money if someone offends you? Insane! I heard a black man on the radio tonight talking about how the white man had done his people wrong for hundreds of years in slavery and made no restitution for it. He said that the white man has been doing it ever since the beginning; taking what they want from who they want. And he now wants restitution for what our ancestors did to his ancestors.. I think at this point it's time for him to get over it. That is in the past.. blacks are not a minority where I live. It is a fact that in Philadelphia, whites are the minority. But who cares who the minority is.. we all bleed red blood, the same color that Christ bled for us. And for that matter we are all brothers! People think that because they are a certain race or color they have more rights that other people. I heard in church tonight that 'what Jesus told us to do is so simple, it is amazing how many people refuse to do it' Love thy neighbor, but no, even Christians argue with neighbors and sue when their neighbor causes property damage or hurts them. Pray for those who hate you, turn the other cheek, if they take your coat give them your other garment too.. last time I heard the thing to do when we are robbed or our car is stolen is to call the police file a report and use our self efforts to get our property back and totally forget about the Lord's commands!! I guess the Bible has become just a book in our bookcase to all too many 'so called' Christians. What about our body? In the life of Christ on earth.. how many times did he seek the assistance of a doctor to 'help' him with his miracles of divine healing.. I counted them all up and go ''' NoNe! "" But today almost every person I know that calls themself a Christian, if they feared for their life because of a sickness they would seek the help of a doctor or medicine.. and then still have the nerve to ask God to heal them! Isn't that little mixed up? It's not both, it's either or! But one thing.::: If God CAN heal,, why medicine and docs too? The simple deciding factor of whether a person really has faith in God is when they get sick do they put their faith for healing in God alone or in medicine too? Speaking of offending, if this blog offends you,, refer to what I had to say about the black man wanting our generation to make restitution for his great grandparents slavery. "get over it". In America we don't have a right of not being offended. Or you could always sue me! But no need for that.. Just ask and I will follow Jesus command on that.. "give to those who ask" so no need to sue if you are offended.. just ask


Oh and since I probably got off the subject there:::

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!

I dont like titles

I get these times when my mind is so full of ideas about something that I feel like ... idk what i feel like. but i do. anyway, Friday @ work I had an idea, shared it with Phil, he loved it, shared it with my sisters, they loved it, shared it with my cousin, she loved it, shared it with my uncle, he loved it , shared it with my pastor, he loved it, and I kinda like it myself. Am I gonna share it with you? No, well actually yeah. I posted it on the forum which is linked from Vision Fellowship. We decorated our tree tonight. It was fun, even though they took pics and I was in my pajamas. the horrors. I've decided that I am not throwing any big NYE bash this year, there was no enthusiasm from anyone and no one else stepped up to offer assistance and a whole lot of other factors.. but i'd love to be invited to yours this year. I may not come, but the invite would sure be nice!
