"That's another good anaology: "They Live," and we've all just been given special sunglasses."

Ah yes, "Hoffman Lenses". "They Live" is my favorite movie ever. That movie was full of analogies from start to finish, but my two favorite were:

- When Joe Nada had to nearly beat a good friend to death just to get him to put on the glasses, and see what the world's really like. I sure can relate to that lately. :)

- The street preacher: He was blind, but saw the spiritual battle more clearly than anyone else.

I recommend that everyone try to see that movie.

Thank you.

Just kidding. Really just wanted to say: great tagline. Sad but true.

Amen. That's a heck of a scene. He has to nearly beat him to death just to get him to listen, and that's exactly just how the past few weeks have gone for us.
