It's a shame that what we grew up with as children has been taken away from kids today.

Stop your preaching! It has happened on our watch!

I'm sorry to admit I did nothing to stop it.

What did you do, if anything, but find fault and point the fickle finger of blame!

This brochure was distributed to thousands and thousands of Girl Scouts.

According to what I read, this is an internet myth. Check out

With all the people whho ran around FR before and after spouting the virtues of “Well Romney is a lesser evil”, quite a few opened themselves to the concept that evil at any level is acceptable. Sp I’d think if they willingly accept evil in their presidential candidate and it is a virtue, this should be no issue for them at all.

Yea, people scream when confronted with reality. Deal with it.

According to what I have seen, sites like this and Snopes are often politically biased. In this case, the only proof is a disavowal from GSUSA. Why would I believe them?

While I don’t true the GSA one bit, I won’t believe this supposed excerpt from a brochure until someone scans and posts a copy (or a link) to said brochure. Two minutes of internet research revealed it to be a hoax.

Well we can wallow in cynicism and blame.

Or we can be constructive and remind people, now that mortal man has disappointed them, of where hope always was found. It’s not like asking Santa Claus for a puppy though. It requires a heart and soul investment in the Lord of Hosts.

All you do is scream. That is reality!

Well for fairness sake one ought to note that the GSA officially disavowed them. One hopes that however libertine they have gotten, they are not yet at the level of Baghdad Bob about it.

Actually, its very simple. If this was a brochure, then there should be a copy of it. If you can find one, I’ll believe it. The only “Proof” is actual evidence. Not something someone wrote on the internet.

And we can recognize that we made a mistake. Which is step one in never repeating it. It seems many just want to pretend their mistakes don’t have consequences.

People who forget their history are doomed to repeat it. People who intentionally ignore it will suffer the same.

Let’s scream where the screaming counts. To the Lord for salvation. Personal as needed, and then in our circumstances as He will give us power to minister.

Tell it to someone that cares.

The lesson can come in a flash. Wallowing in it without pointing to what should come next (like you are doing) is counterproductive and an indulgence in the vain pleasures of blame casting.

Yes! Tell it to the Lord!

Which is really my point. God ain’t forgiving anyone their sins when they deny them.

I do, however, find it quite disturbing that millions of young girls are out peddling overpriced cookies to fund the retirement plans for hundreds of old lesbians. The federal bailout proposal is next i suppose.

Everyone harbors a vast host of sins. If God waited for a full confession of all sin to happen before accepting one who knows he is a sinner for salvation... nobody would get accepted. Just the need as a sinner requires acknowledgment, and the faith that the merciful Lord will help them get their life right.

Get off your hobby horse of condemnation and start pointing to the Lord.
