Thank you. That is the most concise explanation yet for the insane actions that horrified the world on 9/11.
Trotsky and friends.
The establishment of a territorial base for Jewry in Palestine or any other country is conceivable only with the migrations of large human masses. Only a triumphant Socialism can take upon itself such tasks. It can be foreseen that it may take place either on the basis of a mutual understanding, or with the aid of a kind of international proletarian tribunal which should take up this question and solve it.

On the Jewish Problem by Leon Trotsky
God wrote the Bible.
I think the Bible is a good written guide to collective wisdom of mankind
I couldn't possibly agree less. This is why the Bible is filled with prophesy.
Many of the prophesies, (written many centuries before Christ) dealt with a coming Messiah. The details of this Messiah's life, death, lineage and mission were all spelled out centuries before Jesus was born...
Then by a wiiiiiiiiild coincidence, Jesus shows up at exactly the right moment. And by a further wiiiiiiiiiild coincidence, this uneducated tradesman, just happens to posess the greatest wisdom, and highest moral teaching the world has ever seen.
And this humble carpenter, (whose birthdate the world sets it's calendars to, and whose teachings form the basis for much of the code of ethics in the civilized world), He just happens to be born in the exact city, be a decendant of the exact lineage, and died in exactly the way it was prophesied.
It's something to think about, Dale.
Thinkin' Gal suspected that the irreverent humor might be an indication of short freeperdom here #10
In #17 I was sarcastic with my "Freedom of Religion" crack.
I suppose there ARE too many lines to read between.
It also said "Those who hate know who they are and those who are lost are without a clue"...YOU have certainly proven my point! You want a Godless society, China is a good place to look and real estate is cheap.
God makes no junk. "Made in China" is about WallMart crap. The Chinese are NOT God's "seconds". Neither are the multitude of "savages" not yet delivered "The Word". EVERY human life, Hope, - even those who come and pass without "knowing" Christ - are as equal candidates for eternal happiness as you and I. . . . even the Chinese
Dieing He destroyed our sins, Rising He restored our life, Lord Jesus come in glory!
I did no such thing, Hope, and you KNOW it.
My observation dealt with evil based in faith . . . in the blasphemy - the HIGHEST form of blasphemy - which is using God's name to justify human evil.
The MURDERERS of 9/11 had faith. The suicide MURDERERS have faith. The settlers have faith.
Faith ought to be the foundation from which inner courage, peace, kindness . . . spring forth. Faith ought not be a "Land Deed" that is at odds with the "County Recorder".
I agree with Hal in the article, although I'd go a bit further and state we're still in a time of the Gentiles. So although I believe in the Abrahamic Covenant and would rather be blessed 50 times over by supporting Israel, I also place priority on following God's will and plan in all things first. I believe one can both follow God's will and support Israel in that land, although I also recognize that for a period of time, Gentiles will prevail.
Phil, I think that TQ's "problem" is related to a quantum paradox WRT to dead cats. See, it's like this. My cousin, Muon, was in this box and we never heard from "him" for such a long time . . . still have not, for that matter. Who knows what became of Muon. . . Perhaps my uncle, "Bottom Quark" has bumped into him. All things are possible. Anyway, Leonhard, whenever I get in a tight fix that is mathematically impossible to escape from I find a worm hole, Euler up, and escape.
I guess that Sharon and Arafat are off the hook. . . helpless pawns . . .
As the song goes, "That's all she wrote. I sent yer saddle home."
(It goes to the faith/fact conundrum.)
Whoever it was has a whole lot of explaining to do. That Trotskyite cat used France as a litter box. Went in some other countries too.
