How to Not Listen

"As ugly as it is to gossip about another's uglier deeds, it is even a greater crime to pay attention to such gossip. But it is hard to tell someone, 'Quiet! I don't want to listen.' So think about this: There will be a time when an angel will wish to report on your doings here on earth. As a person behaves here below, so he is treated from above. If you have had the guts to respond this way [reject gossip], God will also say, 'Quiet! I don't want to even listen!'"Lubavitcher Rebbe

1. I am a Torah-observant Messianic believer in Y-shua haMoshiach. This is not an oxymoron! I prefer to use the Tanak (OT) to understand the many obscure New Testament passages.

13 Principles of Messianic Judaism

1. Ani Maamin with a perfect faith in the existence of the Creator, be He Blessed, who is perfect in every manner of existence and is the Fundamental Source of all that exists.

2. I dress modestly. No one except my husband sees my belly button. The internet is a G-d send as far as this issue is concerned. I have some links on my links page of good places to find modest clothes as well as longer shirts for layering and protecting one's midsection from the lower riding jeans that are popular now. Read 1 Corinthians 11 for HaShem's opinion on this.

3. "Hitler was a gun-banning, abortion-supporting, business-regulating, Christmas-hating, vegetarian leftist." Tribune7 said it best. In other words, Hitler was a LIBERAL!

4. This is Gen-X political philosophy 101. Liberals better take notes."We come into the world, and see there has been a huge, expensive party. But the plates and the bottles are empty; all that's left is the bill for us to pay." Mario Dumont, Right-of-centre Action démocratique du Québec.We are not willing to pay for your goodies anymore so you better tighten the Social Security belt or we will just vote to do away with that ponzi scheme once and for all.

Pres. GWB's propsal for private social security accounts follows in the great tradition of that liberal of liberals, FDR, who said circa 1935, "In the important field of security for our old people, it seems necessary to adopt three principles: First, non-contributory old-age pensions for those who are now too old to build up their own insurance. It is, of course, clear that for perhaps thirty years to come funds will have to be provided by the States and the Federal Government to meet these pensions. Second, compulsory contributory annuities which in time will establish a self-supporting system for those now young and for future generations. Third, voluntary contributory annuities by which individual initiative can increase the annual amounts received in old age. It is proposed that the Federal Government assume one-half of the cost of the old-age pension plan, which ought ultimately to be supplanted by self-supporting annuity plans."

5.I love to cook...I have a YouTube page now where I'm starting to post some of my favourite recipies. Kimchi Pizza was my first, which reached 14,000 views on April Fools Day 2008 and that's no joke! Yahoo! My second recipe is for Turkey Kimchi Bokumbap (Fried Rice). My third video was a recipe for Chuncheon Wings. They are hotter, tastier and more interesting than Buffalo Wings, IMO! My latest recipe is called Chuncheon Alfredo. Within 24 hours of its online debut, it was a featured video on Youtube Korea's Front Page. I need more subscribers, please!

6. I believe there already is a Palestinian state in the Middle East, it's called Jordan. The idea that Israel should put up with two Arab states in Palestine is unconscionable. Maybe these "Palestinians" should move to Jordan and leave the Jews ALONE. There are no such people as Palestinians. They are Arabs, just like other Arabs. Walid Shoebat said, "There is no Palestine. Palestine is an abomination. Palestine is a state--it's a state of psychosis." In March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member Zahir Muhsein who said, "The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct 'Palestinian people' to oppose Zionism."Is anyone listening?!

7. "The 'working class' is voting Republican. It's the non-working retirees and welfare sucklers that are the base of the Democratic Party."--Atomicpossum. Liberals want the gov’t to steal money from the rest of us to give to the poor so they can feel generous with other people's money!

8. The UN is nothing more than a cesspool of tyrants being propped up by liberal democracies in the name of "peace".

9. STAR WARS rules! Episodes 1-3 ARE better than 4-6. The fact that Hayden Christensen is better looking than Mark Hamill doesn't hurt either.

10. My favorite actor is Bae Yong Joon, aka Yonsama, of Winter Sonata, April Snow, Untold Scandal, and the currently airing Taewangsasingi(The Four Guardian Gods of the King). BYJ Takes NYC
