October 22, 2001 -- ACRID, smoky and biting, the smell of ground zero is like nothing else. So when the two broad-shouldered, dusty men showed up at The Post on Friday, people knew where they had come from before they opened their mouths.

[The Vast Right Wing]

God Bless these two heroes.

[Frumanchu]

Re-bump, and amen! to Matthew 24:35

Hope they find their way home, where they belong. It's good to read these stories. A reminder that not everyone was "lost" that day and many were "saved" that day, despite what the media will report.

He is our Redeemer.

I hope the owners had their name in them so the families can have them for comfort..

I do hope there's a happy ending to this story for Gregorio Lopez and Gail Pridgen, and that they are able to step forward to claim their Bibles, instead of their next of kin.

Thank you, Lord for preserving these Bibles. Thy Word is Truth.

God is great.

Psalm 149:

Happy are they who have the God of Jacob for their help! whose hope is in the Lord their God;
Who made heaven and earth, the seas, and all that is in them; who keeps his promise forever;
Who gives justice to those who are oppressed, and food to those who hunger.

The Lord sets the prisoners free; the Lord opens the eyes of the blind;
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
The Lord loves the righteous; the Lord cares for the stranger;
he sustains the orphan and the widow, but frustrates the way of the wicked.

The Lord shall reign forever, your God, O Zion, throughout all generations. Hallelujah!

This is supiciously like the story about the Bible that was allegedly found at the Pentagon that later turned out to be false. It's not that I doubt the possibility of miracles but rather that sometimes what we wish to be true can sometimes mislead us. Facts may turn up on one of the Urban Legends sites. meanwhile it may be best to take this story with a sniff of salt.

[chuckles]

As no good deed goes unpunished, these two will probably be charged with tampering with evidence at the scene of a crime. If we can't get anything else out of this abomination, I pray that common sense good people will somehow come to the top to replace the rif raff we have endured for 40 years. School board crazies need replaced, City Council crazies need replaced, judge crazies, and congressional crazies, need to go home and think of how they have nearly destroyed the greatest culture on Earth. Praise God, we have at least 2 men willing to go upstream just because it's the right thing to do.

I think it's amazing that they felt like they had to smuggle these books out in the good ole USA. They were probably right. That's what's scary.
