Having a friend of many years, first working together in Real Estate Sales and services. She has the ability to turn every one into a' best friend'. the whole smear, ... 'come by for drinks,' 'lets have dinner', 'lets take a trip'. A wonderful friend. Her parents were killed in a car wreck 20 years ago. She turned whole hearted to the NEW AGE Religion, The Church of Religious Science. ... by Ernest Holmes. In which they are taught ... “ it is as you believe!” “ We create our reality.” “We are God.” All the Oprah stuff of the last few years. They use the scripture of Christ Jesus ... “when you pray, believe you receive what you have asked for” ... Only she does not as such believe Jesus is more than a teacher. He is ahead of us . She realizes she can not walk on water. During a rough patch I went to church with her awhile ,,, about a year or so. It was a group of about 45-50 unusual individuals, mostly rebels, and was a social club.

A few months ago I told her she had a 1000 best friends. She agreed. About 4 years ago I pretty much left the relationship because she influenced me more than I was able to influence her. We have lunch about 3-4 times a year now. I pray for her to see the truth of the Holy Bible. She sees it as myth, etc. So I am at a loss as to how to witness to her. She responds ... “I am glad it works for you(me). I really am.” I pray for her to see the light. Her husband died a year ago. He was not religious.. His mother died with breast cancer when he was still in school. She (Mother) was a Christian Scientist. It turned him against religion.

Beautiful friends ... among the lost.

Proudly wearing a new t-shirt my daughter gave me on Father’s Day.

Shirt is black with a huge graphic on the front in red, white, and blue lettering. The message on the shirt reads, “Land of The Free Because of The Brave”.

WEARING RED ON FRIDAY
FOR OUR HEROES!




Chris DeBurgh~The Lady In Red

The red of courage
The crimson of blood
Are the colors I wear
To honor the heroes
Who possess the one
And spill the other
For all of us

Geo - don’t stop praying for your friends - if the Holy Spirit tugs at their heart strings - they will join you in your love for Christ.

Thanks LUV. The shirt is very special to me. That’s the message I had on my sign at our demonstations a few years ago honoring our troops.

The CSIRO has discovered the heaviest element yet known to science.

The new element is Governmentium (Gv ). It has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lefton-like particles called peons.
Since Governmentium has no electrons or protons, it is inert. However, it can be detected, because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A tiny amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction normally taking less than a second to take from four days to four years to complete.
Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2- 6 years. It does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.
In fact, Governmentium’s mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.
This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass.
When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons. All of the money is consumed in the exchange, and no other byproducts are produced.
