3 Doors Down has a song called “Duck and Run” that I really like. Here’s a part of the lyrics and the reason I like it:

All my work and endless measures
Never seem to get me very far
Walk a mile just to move an inch now
Even though I’m trying so damn hard
I’m trying so hard…

The Freshman sat in his dorm room at the University of Texas at Arlington. Everything was ready for leaving. The instructions concerning his stuff were written. The charter fishing boat in Galveston, Texas had been located. The charter rate was fairly cheap, as this was mid-week instead of on a weekend. All of The Freshman’s belongings in the room were neatly packed, except for the weight belt, of course. He had cast his own weights for SCUBA diving out of lead. The belt was fully loaded (it would take him down deep and down fast), but could be hidden under the long, loose shirt he wore. By the time the charter fishing boat operator could react to The Freshman being overboard it would be too late - The Freshman would be too far down, out of reach. Safe. Finally safe.
The Freshman took one last look around. He was calm, having planned his exit for weeks. He loved the water, and this way there would be no body to bury, no expensive casket and burial plot to cost his parents money. The Freshman had cost them enough. It all made sense: Why stay here? This life was futile. Pain. More pain. Uselessness. Time to check out, lift the burden. He had explained it all in the letter that would be found here in the dorm room. (more…)

More and more draconian laws are being proposed and passed to address the “problem of global warming”, in spite of the fact that increasing numbers of scientists, and I mean a lot of scientists, are denouncing the lack of true science and data behind the global warming/ greenhouse emissions warnings we are hearing about daily from politicians (yeah, the experts!) and, particularly, the UN. See this article from World Net Daily about The Petition Project(link), a movement to expose the lie of global warming from a scientist’s point of view.
So why do we hear all these politicians and political bodies preaching this doomsday message? The answer is in their proposed solutions. See this on a proposed carbon tax by a Canadian politician. Also, look at all the carbon tax initiatives to discourage people from creating carbon. Notice that companies can buy carbon ‘credits’. It is all about money for governments, and that means money and control for politicians and political entities such as the UN. Right now there are those who are proposing a carbon tax on having children, as the children will make more carbon. (more…)

Reuters reports that, after a couple had been caught having sex in a church confessional in Rome, “the bishop celebrated a “Mass of reparation” in the cathedral where the confessional box incident took place to make up for the sacrilege”. OK, so repentance before Christ isn’t good enough. And renouncing the act as sin isn’t enough. Instead the Catholic Church has to have a religious ceremony to repay God for the sin and, I suppose, re-sanctify the cathedral. Again we find the Catholic Church engaged in denying what the Bible teaches and resorting to pagan ritual to try to appease God. Jesus was pretty clear about what it takes to please Him, and it certainly isn’t some ritual that was designed by man and is in truth for man.

Mt 15:7 You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said:
8 ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;
9 in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.’

I ran across a very interesting website today: http://www.theresistancemanifesto.com
This site, primarily run by Mark Dice, has been making waves in the news media – waves that the mainstream media is doing its very best to suppress. Why? Because Dice is doing everything he can to expose the truth, as he sees it, behind the war on Iraq and the reality of politics and religion in America. Those who wish he would shut up contend that he is doing our military harm by hurting morale. I find I agree with Dice that those who are putting their lives on the line for us deserve to know the truth. Let me put it this way: If your wife or husband was cheating on you, would you want your best friend to keep quiet about it and not tell you in order to keep your morale up or to ’save’ the marriage?
From my initial and cursory look at the site I believe he is correct, though I have not examined enough so far to be able to fully endorse his views. I see it as hopeful, though, as most Americans are either fooled, sticking their heads in the sand, too proud to admit the truth, or just plain ignorant (willingly). The Bible warns that God’s people perish for a lack of knowledge, and it is my firm opinion that this means both Biblical knowledge and the ability to see world events for what they are by being informed and analytical.
I am forever amazed at how much Americans are willing to believe lies in order to be comfortable. Because of tradition, pride, or what they were raised with they accept lies that fly in the face of reason. So they turn a blind eye to things such as the Satanic connections (more…)

Let’s explore Truth: What it is and what it isn’t. Why? How about because without Truth you will: (a). not enjoy life, (b). you will most likely die very soon if you don’t acknowledge at least some specific truths, and (c). I believe you will find that without Truth there is no real point in hanging around in this life anyway.
