    Hurricanes and other 'natural' disasters C/A

    Seems that you are saying that if you followed ALL the "safe & correct" practices (physical and spiritual) then you are in no danger whatever of any "judgement" OR natural catastrophe. I really don't think you mean to say OR imply such, but I don't see the point of this statement sans that...

    Is this Bush's fault too?

    PN, hate to say it, but the more you post, the less credible you appear!

    Does God Control Satan ?

    When I was a kid, one of my favorite summertime pastimes was to catch a june-bug and tie a sewing thread to his hind leg. Then, I would turn him loose and he would buzz all over the place as far as the string would allow. I feel that this is, in essence, the relation between God and satan...

    Louisiana Governor Refuses Federal Takeover of Evacuation.

    Once that camel gets his nose under the tent, it's gonna be well nigh impossible to keep the rest of his body out. This is a matter best left to the local citizens to rectify as they see fit.

    Katrina: Is anyone feeling guilty?

    I've had prostate cancer, heart attack, and double bypass! I NEVER, NEVER, felt that I was being short-changed or mad because I had these problems when none of my close friends did not. God made those decisions and I was perfectly comfortable with them since I know He is in control. By the...

    Restoring Public Order

    Under these conditions, anybody firing at the "authorities" ought to be shot right then!! The standing order to the police should be if you witness the act, shoot to kill! Harsh? Yer dern tootin! But I'm sick of good people getting wounded or killed just because this bleeding heart society...

    Thankyou Wal Mart

    So much for those "greedy corporations" that are gonna let grandma freeze/starve to death just to keep the profits high! If nothing else comes from this disaster, I hope the masses will look a little skewed at all the anti-business garbage the left loves to yell about.

    Katrina - Random Act or Wrath of God?

    The dogmatic statements of some that "This was merely an act of nature, & 'God was not judging!'" is just as stupid as the statement "This WAS God's judgement!" Unless you have some DIRECT revelation from God as to the nature of the disaster, you don't know squat whether this was a normal...

    National Guard Greeted with Applause and Anger

    And one of the key factors that is contributing to the demise of this once great & proud nation.

    Are you prepared for a Terrorist Attack or Natural Disaster.

    Amen!! Went to prayer meeting last Wed., & was planning on filling up my truck en route. Got to the station I usually frequent & cars everywhere!!! Hadn't been paying much attention to the news for a couple of days, so I learned real quick that we were in a "SHORTAGE". I was close to empty...

    National Guard Greeted with Applause and Anger

    True, but this is also true! Can't help but think from BOTH the disaster AND spiritual perspectives; "There but for the grace of God, go I!"

    Levee Design

    Excellent points. Every improvement costs more money. So do you settle for a city with 100 buildings that cost an average of $1 billion each that will withstand anything that nature has thrown at us yet, or 1000 buildings at a far smaller $ cost per building that only meets the safety for the...

    Do We Need to Leave Iraq Sooner Now?

    Get rid of the pork projects, and the $ won't be that much of a problem! :mad: Get rid of at least half of all the alphabet agencies and ditto! :mad: It's time for the gov't to get back to it's basic constitutional role and cease to be the teat for the masses! :mad:

    Looting begins in New Orleans

    I'm afraid that if I were one of the guardsmen on this assignment, and my superiors did not see fit to allow me arms AND ammunition, I'd have to be court-marshalled for failure to obey a direct order! As to "rules of engagement", they ought to be "shoot to kill" any looter if ONE (1) warning...

    Pre-millers: Support Israel = Support the Gaza Pullout?

    satan asked God for permission to test Job. Permission was granted with restrictions. When Job proved (unbeknownst to Job) his fidelity to God, satan decided that the first test was not strong enough. This is the way he (satan) works; he tends to change the rules in the middle of the game when...

    How many more body bags?

    One of the very few points you've made that I agree with! Now, if you would follow his example-----

    More journalists killed in Iraq than Vietnam

    Joseph Botwinick sez: poncho replies: That's what I love about many of the dialogs on this board: Take a comment you don't agree with, and make it say something totally disconnected to it's obvious meaning so's you can make yourself look "holier than thou", and push your own biased view to the...

    Gaza pullout bearing more fruit....

    The stupidity of the Gaza pullout is the same rationale that the Brady Bunch uses when claiming that the removal of guns from private citizens will stop crime! Ain't worked yet, and never will!!!! For some inexplicable reason, some folks think that criminals & terrorists feel bound by their...

    Venezuela to seek legal action against Robertson

    Perhaps, but not before the MSM & liberals had praised his insight, and began defending his "free speech" rights! :rolleyes: (Especially if his target had been Pres. Bush!!)
