Fireproof is a good movie for couples or young teens/adults in the dating mode. Some of my previous website members may find it too "fundamental" but it has a good, solid practical Christian message & a positive impact on those viewing it. Take your spouse & teen children to see it. Website: http://www.fireproofthemovie.com/
2008-2012 The World Under Obama
The Bible does clearly show that God decrees/predestines ahead of time things for His own glory (Isaiah 46:10) YET at the same time God wants us to call evil evil & good good. (Isaiah 5:20) We should still oppose evil even if God uses those things to bring about His own glory.
Obama's Christianity is Theological Socialism
This brings us to the topic of Barack Obama's Christianity. Obama's Christianity is akin to many of the "progressive" so-called Christian "leaders" of today. Brian McClaren, Rob Bell, Jim Wallis & others. It is a Socialistic Christianity that turns Jesus into a William Ayers of the first-century & revisions the Bible more as "Prairie Fire" manifesto. But Jesus was NOT some radical looking to overthrow the government, after all Jesus took no opportunity to incite people to revolt against the Romans. Voting for Obama
When the volunteer asked me if I would vote for Obama, I asked him for what reasons should I? The volunteer seemed stunned as if most people just answer, "yes". He stammered for a moment & asked me if I had already decided. So, I repeated my question. The volunteer then said something like, "Well, Obama is for changing the policies of the last 8 years". I then replied, "Yes, Obama is for change, but not just for the last 8 years but for the last 250+ years. Obama wants to change America into something it has never been. Obama is a socialist & I will not be voting for him." With that the volunteer said "ok" & hung up. Apologetix Concert ReviewSo, I went to my first Apologetix concert. Apologetix is a Christian Parody Band (see their website here: apologetix.com). What they do is take popular secular songs & re-write the lyrics so that it has a Christian theme. The lead singer is J. Jackson & at least in this concert, he carried most of the load of the singing. The band members were very good at their instruments but I'd like to have heard more harmony & backup singing...perhaps even add a female singer to the band. I didn't know what to expect as I've only really heard Apologetix's studio stuff. I know that sometimes live music pales in comparison & as the concert started out, I thought this was going to be the case but before long Jackson & the band were belting out powerful tunes with powerful messages.
The American Thermidorian Reaction
$1 Moves You In -- and -- destroys the economy
No folks, those signs aren't reflective of capitalism nor are they reflective of American principles. We see these signs & statements not only in the housing market but also other industries. It is offensive to think someone can gain what it takes honest people years of hard work to obtain.
Converting Microsoft 2007 to Previous VersionsMicrosoft launched its new Office Suite & didn't seem to tell any of us poor hacks using the older versions that the older versions wouldn't be able to open the newer version files. For example, by default the Excel 2007 file format is .xlsm instead of .xls -- I know, I know I'm geeky. So anyway, I just wanted to share that there is a work-around. It is a converter that you can download from the Microsoft website (no scary 3rd party) that will automatically covert the files into the older version. You can download it from here:
Was Jesus a 'Community Organizer'?
"Barack Obama was a community organizer like Jesus. Pontius Pilate was a governor." (source1 & source2) The comparison is meant to be a jab at the fact that though many question Obama's lack of executive experience, Palin's experience as a governor is equated with the supposed killer of Jesus Himself.
