After further review
The amnesty part was the stickler that pricked the American people. For one thing listening to the news during the wrangling process I personally got the distinct feeling that the-crooked powers that be-were already figuring out ways to make this legislation null by conniving.
The Democrats act like they are afraid to seal our Borders. And since they are sitting up there in Washington nice and safe what or who would they be afraid of?
I and most others have long since known that the whole process has been co-opted in favor of money. And the only monetary gains had by having a broken border are all illegal. Drugs and humans. The drugs destroy our children and the illegals are exploited by crooked business men.
And I assure you the lack of a fence has not gone unnoticed by terrorists.
Without a viable fence between Mexico and the U.S. both Mexico and the U.S. lose. The Mexicans loose some of there best workers and the U.S. looses jobs to a cheap exploited illegal work force.
For as long as I can remember I have been opposite Ted Kennedy on Damn near everything but recently he made a statement that I have to hand to him. Ted says I do not understand why the American people would not want to secure our border with the Mexico.
The American people do want to close our Border but because the courts and law enforcement have obviously gone nuts it pisses them off that someone else would get amnesty for breaking a law when the legal citizens of this land would not. And the idea of making their workplace an enforcer in this problem rankled there sensibilities.
They ain't wrong. While legitimate employers would have had more law mandated paperwork piled on them increasing costs; forcing upon them something that does not increase productivity, and consequently to balance the scale made cost reductions else where, and also forced to be the eyes and ears of the almighty Government. Also; it would as a token, increased the number of employers that would have opted out of this country rather than continue to work in a more restricted environment. All of which would have only cost the United States money, restricted freedom, and put the law abiding citizens under a microscope. Not the way we were raised.
And as is always, instead of giving the people a tool with which to to help them govern they would be giving the corrupt a tool to discriminate with. And we all know that our employers will just make arbitrary decisions that would be detrimental to our own goals and well being. Employers in this country have somehow got it in there heads that they are God to the employees. And that pisses me off. They ain't God any more than money is . The more they have tried to supplant God the more they have been reaping his ire.
The Bible puts it this way. To whom much is given much is expected. And how well I know that one. Also Jesus says: if you would be greatest then you have to become least.
Mat 18:4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 23:11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
You have to serve all. If you have been given a a good business then you have also been made subservient to not only God but literally to the customers and the employees. Rebel against any of those three and smack. Lie to any of them and....I would say ask Ken Ley but his lying ultimately cost him his life. He burned all three and.......now his wife is trying to keep her lifestyle. How absurd. Makes you wonder if his wife wasn't the driving force behind his greed.
As usual I digress.
Back to the Fence.
The simplest most economically viable option is to build a fence and man the Border. No God damned strings. Because strings attached to that border wall is simply god damned literally. And don't confuse this nation with a city.
We are a nation and not a city and we can fence up our border. Any prophet who wishes to argue the point can meet me on the battle field and we will settle it with swords. I say lets fight for it and let God decide. No quarter will be given nor none asked.
For the rest of you if you don't understand what I just said do not make anything out of it. To you it is just nut rag stuff anyway.
As to the rejection of the law. The play stands as called. It was a bad law. The timeout is charged to..........you might just be able to figure out who.

Panic Attack
Sign sign every where a sign
yadda yadda yadda
breakin my mind
do this.....don't do that
can't ya read the siiii-gn
We have become a nation of fear junkies.
Every day my wife turns on the news saying I just want to watch the weather but for twenty minutes before the weather is reported we are subjected to death, murder, and the corruption in the nearby city of Macon Georgia.
After about 5 minutes I flip out and try to stick my head in the computer so I don't have to listen to it.
Jesus? No wonder she is a basket case? You cant' keep feedin yourselves negative crap like that without it having some kind of effect on you.
I keep telling her to turn that off but she doesn't. Last year when I kicked her out I turned the crap tube off and WOW!, did I ever feel better.
I have it figured out though. The beast in it's big brother mode has installed in a background carrier wave below the hearing of most normal humans subliminal messages to kill, murder, and your lives are in danger.
lol
Ok that ain't funny some nut knock might take that serious.
Someone did tell me once that they had figured out how to measure the vibrations coming off of the tube of your T.V. And eves drop on what was going on in your house. Mwhahaha. Why you could put that to your advantage. MHhahahaha.
Ok nuff of that I might start believing that................My house is bugged. I'm looosing it! Ahhhhhhhhh! "quick quick honey, they are bugging our house through our TV. I'll sneak in and get the shotgun and blow the bugger out. Mwhahahaha. BAAAM. Damn I used the no4 magnum round again.....that hurt. Oooee. That is exciting.
People are starving for some good news and absolutely sick from hearing bad news. The happiest people I see are the ones who hardly ever turn their television on. People want to hear stuff like, new factories here in the U.S.. Crime down, rightness up. Good crop harvest. You can drive as fast as you want. New fence at the border so we can be safe from terrorists. If your neighbor pisses you off you can put on the gloves and legally see if you beat the pulp out of him like the old days when you could say "he started it" and everyone else would say "yeah he had it commin to him". Now that would be good news to me. I would like to burn the leaves in my front yard instead of letting them rot . Now there is an ecological article. If you burn the leaves it dumps greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere but if they rot they dump greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. Stupid. Stupid . Stupid. Well you could compost them in which case they will dump green house gasses into the atmosphere. We could just encase them in plastic or how about irradiate them then they won't rot . How about this.....I put them in my refrigerator. They won't rot there either.
I say take a chance. Shut off the negative murderous robbing crap, put on your rose colored glasses and pretend there isn't a problem in the world that you have to do a damn thing about.
Better that than to be scared all the time worrying yourselves to death literally.
Most of the prosperous and happiest people I have met don't even turn on the T.V.. I would bet that there is a connection.
And if I can convince my wife to shut the s--t off we are going there too. Rose heaven. Know-nothing ville. I want to be like Sergent Shultz. I know nothing!
I think the monkey-fore, hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil isn't quite right. It should be hear no evil, see no evil, and you won't speak evil.

You have got to stay positive
My wife for instance. Has a giant problem with money. She gets her self in so deep that if I didn't have some credit we would be bankrupt. She buys, owes debt, feels bad, buys, becomes indebted, feels bad hates herself.
If I get mad about it she, calls a friend and wines about me getting mad, but doesn't tell them that I am mad about her spending habits, which thankfully because I have isolated her from the primary bills we would be bankrupt but instead only she is bankrupt. Undeclared but bankrupt.
Her friend feeds her instability by telling her what a monster I am, and why is she still with me. So last year she got into one of those online dating sites, and I found out that she was going out I kicked her out.
3 months later she comes back for a visit and she looked like hell. (The grass is not greener on the other side of the fence). So because God wanted me to I took her back.
She gets back here and goes right back to the same pattern she was in before. Mindlessly. I get mad and lecture her once again on the efficacy of good spending habits. She wines to a girlfriend who again supports the negative side of her issues without knowing that if I did not exert some control over the finances we would be out on the street.
You know that behavior on her part is as self destructive and as destructive on our marriage and relationship as being an alcoholic.
Part of the solution for her is to not feed herself with the negative things that lead to her depression. And feed herself with the things that don't necessarily make her feel good at the moment, but with things that will build in her self good things, like self control.
More on this later. I gotta go tell her once again that she has to be more positive and to starve the parts of her that seek after the pleasures in life.

Ok I am back to this.
When a person has been victimized they will do anything in their power to not be revictimized. And once they decide on something they may become obsessed with it and to break that obsession becomes near impossible. God understands this and is one of the reasons that God plainly forgives men of their sin. He only requires one thing of us in return. that we plainly forgive others of their transgressions against us. Jesus teaches us this by the Lords prayer. forgive us our debts as we forgive others.
The Jesus teaches us to admit our sin to God and man. Jesus is telling us to open our selves up and to ask for forgiveness, and to repent, that is to change ones mind. Funny thing about changing ones mind about a sin that we do. We may not immediately change the doing of it. It is like my cussing. If I am not mindful of it continuously I will cuss and by the holy spirit immediately feel guilty. So once again I make my mind up to not cuss and then I get to talking and as almost any subject will do for me I get animated and like a rocket there I go blurp out comes a cuss word or two. this has been a life long struggle for me. I could have the excuse that my dad was a sailor and sailors have the stereotype of have a blue tongue. And my dad definitely had a blue tongue. Now you could have never met a more graceful man than my dad. He was incredibly strong in so many ways and smart and I always felt very safe when he was around but that tongue. He was incredibly creative with the cussing. but you see I am a man now in charge so to speak of my own life. And I am supposed to be in control of me but in the area of cussing if I am not thinking and just reacting brrrrp out they come. Paul the great apostle said it this way. doing the things I ought not and the things I should do I don't.
Does this mean that we are to continue in our sin. NO! We have an out. Whenever I become so consternated in my sin, I have been able to say these words. God I don't know how. God will smile on you and change you. It is at the moment you admit your weakness to God; that and the recognition of his works in you that you find that your greatest strength lay not in your weakness but in your admission of weakness to God. The world may say that this is weakness but it is not, it is our greatest strength.
I speak of these things not from a perspective of exterior study like many a social scientist but from the position of one who has experience.
I know whence I speak of the prowess of our Lord
You see......I am a victim. And I am healed.
I hope our economy is compartmentalized enough
This can be found at MSN Money.
How big and destructive could that avalanche be? Think of just this one example: The safe Treasury market took a hit of 10.5% in the four-week May panic. That's a 10.5% loss in the most liquid, accurately priced debt market in the world. Think an illiquid market with prices that only exist in computer models will do better?
And this.
Mortgage meltdown still hampers stocks.

A rambling comment
Why young girls are so stupid in relationships with guys.
I was over at my Brothers site annoying him with some stupid diatribe when I suddenly start sputtering out this line of thought.
Rather than subject my brother to the rest of this yellow stream. Here it is.
Andrea and me didn't last long because I am atypical for a man. I am a yammering idiot and guys are supposed to be silent but deadly. Girls are all about themselves so all a guy has to do is ask questions and try to listen the female will do the rest and think that you love them. Big problem with that. If a guy doesn't say anything to a girl then that would explain why girls keep getting into bad relationships. They are always saying "I thought I knew him" but clearly they really weren't listening or observing very well. They seem so surprised when the guy goes psycho. If they would have shut up and really listened and looked at the guy they might just have seen something that scared them and dropped the guy before it got started. You might say I gave the girl heads up about me and if they decided they didn't like what they saw I let them go. I figured it was better that way. No hard feelings. In fact most of the girls I broke up with I remained friends which is good for the dating stuff in HS. Most thought I was too much of a nut. but that falls under the heading of forgive and forget. Let go so you can go on with the rest of the day and life.
Something else today's girls gotta stop doing. They are attracted to the warrior men then they try to change them into pansies, and the men are like ehhh? Whats up with that? If I was meant to be a woman I would have been born with the right stuff to be a woman. You know what I need to continue this in my blog. This is interesting me.
Men have had to go out and kill something or someone for I would guess 15000 years and is that attitude going to change overnight? I don't think so. Men are just used and abused then are told that they have to give up the thing that attracted the girl in the first place. Most people guys or girls ain't going for that.
How many times have you heard "You got with me like I am and this is how I am and I ain' t going to change" or how about this one. "This is who I am baby love it or leave it". They leave.. Yet the same person is saying You gotta change. That ain't going anywhere with just about anyone.
Tell you what.....the Golden rule applies. If a woman wants her hubby to be more in touch with his feminine side then a woman better get in touch with her more masculine side and maybe the two will meet in the middle cause I know that most men ain't going all the way female. If you married a masculine man just let him be masculine, cause you might not like gay.
Last but not least. God set a format down in the word and he gave no advice about how to accomplish the.....task. The only advice I can give is be nice. Something that may be one of the most difficult tasks anyone can achieve. Gotta have God cause ain't no real nice with out him.

Oh....... news flash
Scientists scanning the deep interior of Earth have found evidence of a vast water reservoir beneath eastern Asia that is at least the volume of the Arctic Ocean.
Gen 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
I could imagine the sky being rung out but water from under ground?. Now it is proven. There is not only 9/10 of all fresh water under ground but there is also a huge ocean under Asia.
It makes you wonder how on earth these basically illiterate just out of the stone age people could know about huge vast supplies of water under the continents doesn't it?
Jesus is the way the truth and the life.
Why the confusion about me
Though people don't understand this one little principle about how people are connected to each other your genetic national identity will shape your personal identity.
To understand me more you would have to go and study the Finish Russian war to get a better idea why I don't stud hypocrisy.
When the Democratic nations should have intervened for the Finns with Russia and seriously supported a fellow democratic nation they got skeered they would loose a future potential ally in the Soviets in a war against Germany. Had they supported the Finns it is entirely possible that there would have been no cold war.
What they should have done instead was told the Russians that they were going to support the Finns and that the Soviets would be on their own against the Germans when and/or if they did eventually go to war with them. Also I would have told the Soviets we will tell the Germans that we ain't helping the Soviets so have at em. the Soviets would have capitulated and not attacked. Or if they would have the Finns with the extra help would have won handily.
The Finns would have turned into a neutral entity. The Germans would have annihilated the Soviets The Brits would have had the time to build a solid defense. the Japanese would not have attacked us and the status today would be much different.
In fact it is entirely possible that there would have been no cold war at all. No nuclear arms race. No war in Korea, No Vietnam war.
The Finns are loyal to people who honor their word and aloof to those who don't. We also have a penchant for not getting emotionally involved with people. That way if anyone changes there mind about our relationship it didn't cost us emotionally.
I am the same way. Fierce in battle and fiercely loyal to those who honor their word with me.
The idea that people have to be social creatures causes me to think that some intellectual boobs are thinking of men like they are a herd of goats. MHAA. they ain't. I am not a goat and since that old goat the prince of Grecia didn't support my people in WWII am not necessarily all that enthralled about supporting a Democracy that is not living up to it's claims.
I am not a citizen of the ideal currently held by supposed braniacs of this nation. I prefer to be an American who is fiercely independent. Just like my half kinsman in Finland.

We are not following the constitution
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
This amendment Is not being followed.
Because the people of this country concur with any type of governing law that infringes on any ones right to keep and bear arms the people of this country are not in abeyance and have by this annulled the constitution.
The only thing at this time that holds back the Government from totalitarian behavior is the vote for congressman.
The fear of the outrage of the people at the ballot box for these men who hold seat is all. If Congress at any time believes that the people would not become enraged and do no less than throw the blighters out on their kiesters then we would indeed be subjected to the loss of what we now consider our rights.
I have heard many say that when the people decide that it is well to give up some of their own freedom for appearance of safety then they have started down a path for a form of totalism. I say that day is long since gone. I say it began in 1916.
I say that the only place for totality is with God. God is totally in control. Men are not. the only thing then that we can do is totally follow God's way completely and specifically and to count on God from his riches and Grace to give us the wisdom and strength to Govern ourselves according to his desires for us to do so.
The Constitution was meant for a people who would control themselves and since it is now apparent that people won't then maybe it is time for a new constitutional convention.
One in which legitimizes the right of the government to coral the unruly masses.
Does this thought bother you people?
Then you better get off of your stupid asses and fight for the return of this nation to the Constitution in its truest form because if you don't.....then what you consider of the material gains to be evident of civilization will be taken and I could only speculate the means by which that would happen.
I would prefer this to happen at the ballot box.

What is the mancause of the Tribulation?
This article is not going to back up any of it's statements. I am going to state these next few items as a matter. Take them or leave them as you see fit and by all means challenge them in my comments section as you will but I have just got to get these things out.
What is the Tribulation?
I am not sure that I can put this in simple words but I am going to make a serious effort to do so.
The Tribulation is going to be a period of time occurring after the most catastrophic natural events men will have witnessed since the flood and the ice age. within 6 months after these calamities men will go apparently nougat and in a very very short time will proceed to kill itself off in the most incredible orgy of murder. 1/3 of mankind will die.
For the next 3 1/2 years while men are trying to reestablish civilization there shall be two men preaching the Gospel of Jesus and Kingdom of Heaven. After these are killed the world shall be led into a period of governmental control the likes of which men will have never seen before. This Government will work mans butt off, and also will rule and dominate by fear.
Though most theologians would not debate this with me then the only question has been when will these things happen. And here is where theologians have led people astray. With a method of cutting and pasting verses to fit their views and voice in head crap, and premature interpretations. Not waiting for events to precisely fit Biblical prophecy incorrectly fore told of events. Men who were and are still used as great tools for salvation proudly proclaiming that they were also great purveyors of prophecy when indeed prophecy was not one of their gifts. That is to say foretelling of future events.
The greatest advice I was ever given and was most certainly given of God no matter the vehicle, was to set aside what I had been taught and read the bible straight. It is the greatest advice I could ever give concerning how someone should approach the word. Read it straight.
Beg God for the truth and understanding and know one more thing.
The Bible is cohesively unified. Graceful and elegant in it's completion. Marvelous and full of forethought. Decisive with an edge unbreakable, sharper and stronger than any cutting device man has ever made or conjured up in his own mind. And I say this......; it Will not be set aside by men. It will be fulfilled completely and perfectly. Though men have twisted their understanding of it or tried to mitigate it yet it remains undefeated. The word has been foremost leading the way.
And the reason for the Tribulation will be mans intransigence to it.
Cause no. 1: Mankind will not be in a state of self control.
Cause no. 2: Fear.
Cause no. 3: Deceived leadership amongst men.
Cause no. 4: Rejection of the truth.
To all mankind I say Repent and reconcile with your creator lest you find yourself bound to slavery to that which you believe to be against only finding out too late that, that too which you were against, in your evil doing you were really for. Knowing full well in that day that you will deserve your rewards. Understanding then that the rewards you earned were not given because of the good intent of your heart but due you by the evil that you did. Understanding; that before you were judged, in your end you had been given the chance to repent. That men set their course thinking it was true by what they thought they could see and evidenced in the material when in fact it was the faith that goodness and love from the unseen and unknowable and infinite that reigns. God.

TF STERN
Anyway I must make this qualifier comment to my last article.
''''God meant that we would not know the exact hour of 'his' coming but that we know that the time was near by the signs of the time and as far as the tribulation is concerned that is what I am relating too.
Like I keep saying I am not specifying the exact time; only the time frame in which all these things occur, and only that if it does not happen within the next 50 60 years then the Bible is just an interesting an useful book to live by but that it would indeed be null and void as far as salvation is concerned.
I also have always added that this is my opinion.
Never fear though I believe. I have personally seen too many extraordinary events from the massively awesome to the micro to not '''.
Though my qualifiers are not falsifiable that is in other words the proof that I asked of God is not reproducible in a lab. That it was indeed He showing me these things and not something I was conjuring up. The fact is I didn't ask for any little ol proof. I asked for a massive gigantic event Something that could not be faked or would not be lied about or made up and definitely could not be questioned as to whether it happened proof for me. I will leave it to you to figure out what it was. Trust me you and the rest of the world saw it and it was a major topic of conversation for a while.
I stick to my prediction. Nice thing about being thought of as a nut. There is no pressure to be right. It has its drawbacks but then again it has it's plusses too.

Sir Isasc Newton religious?
"JERUSALEM (June 18) - Three-century-old manuscripts by Isaac Newton calculating the exact date of the apocalypse, detailing the precise dimensions of the ancient temple in Jerusalem and interpreting passages of the Bible - exhibited this week for the first time - lay bare the little-known religious intensity of a man many consider history's greatest scientist".
That gets the WOW from me. Are these papers real?
Anyway if so then Sir Isaac nearly perfectly agrees with me. Only one thing he left out of his calculations and the following versus are the ones I use to support my reasoning.
Gen 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
Mat 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
Jesus saying to his disciples that the tribulation and troubles shall come before a generation passes(dies).
The 120 years beginning with the resurrection of Israel in 1947.
120 years because God says mans days are 120 years.
Anyway I bet he forgot that.
Also he did not calculate in the fulfillment of Daniels prophecies concerning the Ram and The He goat. The Medo Persian Empire and Grecian Empire. You know our on going war against terrorism. Democracy vs Muslims.
Anyway I put the tribulation in my lifetime. In fact in lew of the events in the middle east I put them from now till 2020 and no later than 2067.
For more on this refer to Daniel Chapter 8.
The old statement hindsight is always 2020. Hmmmmmm. Maybe. Anyway.

Why would I be in the right?
The answer I gave to him was based on the fact that once I came into forgiveness by Jesus and by giving myself completely over to Jesus and entered into the Kingdom of Heaven that in truth all of the curses not enumerated by the law were forgiven me and did not apply. They still do not.
I said "no". To which he promptly tried to physically attack me. If the janitor of the church would not have been sitting there and yelled out his name"Tim"!, this man surely would have assaulted me and then lied about it.
I fairly figured out what he was saying. That he was under a curse and in that thought that it applied across the board.. It by my previous statement, does not.
For instance Honor thy Father and thy Mother. I do this. Not by mans countenance do I do this but by God do I do this. I will at the last of this article spell out how I honor my Mother and Father but for now this is about a method of finding and fixing our problems. As some would put it dealing death blows to our demons that we can be better people at peace with our selves.
It is no curse to tell the truth in that my Mom and Pop made some horrendous mistakes but all in all they were generally correct. It is no sin to tell anyone of these mistakes in fact the sin would be to not say so.
If a person would like to understand why they are the way they are by God, and to ask God specifically to fix him or herself then it requires that he be honest with himself about his life. That is not to say to relive it but to coldly reflect with out judgement or emotion on his past. A difficult but attainable state of mind not to be confused with coldness or cold calculating criminals but with (I learned that a person could do this from Star Trek) logic. That does not mean to accept himself in his frailties but as a point of searching oneself for the cause of ones own primary faults. Waaay too many people accept who they are and go out and live their lives in their faults. Not Gods will. He is continually doing a good work in us that we may be presented before him as he has set out for us to be.
What curse then is there that can take hold in me? None!!!!!!! Not one. If I will by God endeavor to search out God and be given the blessing that I should search myself that I may present my weaknesses before God and men that I may find peace before my true Father which is in Heaven, and that the works of this world are in me put to death that I may remember them no more., and that the fruits of the spirit of the Holy God may be manifested through me that mankind may know that my God is God, and that he has the power to cure man of ALL his ills.
To be a living example of He who has created us that in that great and terrible Day of His Judgement, No man may have an excuse as to why he did not believe.
The Honor of my Father and Mother
My mother and Father were tools who by whom God in his awesome plan gave me to them to raise up in the manner which He had proscribed in a plan set out before the beginning of time for the purposes he has designed and there is NO Greater Honor that a man could bestow on his parents than to be given the gift of recognizing that God did not have evil in mind for me but Good................My Parents are beloved of God and in whom he bestowed the honor of giving birth to children and all of the blessings and troubles that come with them that he may also work the works in my parents that he has ordained for their lives. That they are also presented before Himself Holy and Perfect according to His plans for them.
THERE IS NO GREATER HONOR THAN THIS THAT I COULD BESTOW UPON THEM.
Why then would I be in the right? By and For God how can I be in the wrong when I live in the right? I am not perfect in this and was not given the power to be perfect but I do not accept this and continue in every way to By God correct myself. I will be exactly before God as he desires and wills and will only be given the correction that he has ordained NOT MEN.
So except for the Holy Spirit and Jesus and The Father; that which is out of the spirit SHUT UP! And I will know the difference If you don't. Got a spiritual Sword that says you won't risk it.

I am a Scofflaw
Though I endeavor to abide by the laws of my local state and federal government I scoff at the law.
I can do my best to be obedient to the laws of our land and still scoff at them.
NYA NYA NYA.
New link on side Bar
Because they are kicking but about following the constitution.
Check out this new Mr. Smith
What are men good for
NOTHING!
Everything I have heard. Everything I have ever ever heard!
You know what I have heard also. If you want a group of people to live positive lives. tell them the good that they do and reinforce the good that they are.
Am I guilty of doing the same things?
Yeah. I got to change back. I once used to tout the plusses of America but for 30 years was bombarded with how bad we are as a country.
You know what?, the nay sayer's won. I am convinced that the U.S. doesn't deserve to exist. So how come we are still here?
You people want positive results?, shut up about the negative excrement. Proper vernacular for that word. It is an attitude that belongs flushed fermented and turned into fertilizer spread upon a field so that something may be planted that would bring good fruit.

The amendment was subsequently ratified by Tennessee, April 8, 1997 (after having rejected it on November 16, 1869).
The reason I did not include all of the amendments is that from the 16th on the amendments began to change the constitution itself for instance:
Section 8
Clause 1: The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
To me this says got to be even and fair.
The 16th amendment says:
Amendment XVI: Income tax.
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
The Government no longer cares if it is even and fair.
As I have read this again and briefly thought about the things that Our Government does today It looks like at least half of the original document is not being followed.
Not good. An argument should be made to the effect that it is obsolete and a new constitution written to better reflect how we live and govern in this country instead of fighting over this one.
For instance if the moronic society we live in today wants to outlaw religion then they could put that in there.
Or maybe they would want to ambiguate what they think can and cannot be said.
How about outlawing free thought.
Then you could make psychics law enforcement and just take their word at what other people are thinking.
Or how about making a pre-crime unit out of them? That way you could just throw people in prison you thought were going to commit a crime ala The Minority Report starring Tom Cruise.
In fact they could legalize ambiguities and outlaw facts. Why not?, We are living a lie in this country anyway. Might as well tell the truth about it. Oh yeah if we tell the truth then we wouldn't be living a totall lie? Can't have that now can we?

What is God's will for your life?
I have heard it said a thousand times that when something bad happens that that was not God's will for your life.
Bull crap. If it happened it was God's will.
God's will is what is done. God's desire for you now is something totally different.
God's desire is that you live a happy peaceful life and may you be so blessed but the vast majority of people don't live that kind of Utopian life. People are kind of stubborn and usually fight learning something more and if not for the calamities big and little that occur would not, but would find their happy little nook and stay there until they died. Now that is not God's will.
So what does God do but create a surrogate calamity maker whom he has under total control. The Devil who introduces man into sin. God's will. Tell me you don't think that the devil who was created in whom there is no truth. Jesus says "he has nothing in me".
So now to the rest of this incredible controversy I am so good a whipping up.
To tell what God's will is just look at history. To know what God's desire for you just look at what Jesus said you should be like. Cute furry lovable little lambs. We have the power to be cute lovable furry little lambs so be it.
Look at my picture on the left and tell me you don't see a cute furry lovable little lamb.
