I heard Jay Severin talk today on the radio. It got me fired up about a few things i have to vent about.
Torture: OK. Sleep deprivation, or being sent to tickle land, or even acts of humiliation do not consitute as torture. And contrary to many people's opinions, this form of coersion can be used to save many innocent lives. End of story.
Canadians live under the blanket of protection from America. They benefit from taxpayers money going to the military. They benefit from thousands of soldiers blood, sweat and tears. And what do some of them do? They boo the American National Anthem. Holy Crap! It's not everyone, but what were those few idiots at the game thinking? This does not warrant any further comments.
Ariel Sharone (sp?) had a stroke. Pat Robertson thinks God was punishing him for dealing with Palestine. Aye. This is why people don't want to be Christians. Why does God always have to be punishing someone? C'mon Pat, get with it.
Voting: I have been saying this all along, but it was nice when Jay echoed my thoughts. We don't want the voting population to increase. Most of the people that don't vote now, wouldn't be very educated voters...come to think of it, have the voters nowadays aren't educated voters. Let's stop trying to get every nut job to vote and instead work on educating people about the issues already!
Another bonehead judge: OK...get this...a young child was raped by a guy for four years between the ages of 6-10 years old. The creep who did this goes before the judge and guess what the judge sentenced him with? Go ahead, throw a number out. 20? 40? 60? Correct, he got 60...SIXTY DAYS! I hope to the heavens that this story is not fully accurate. I hope there was some mis-information there! The reasons the judge stated for giving him that sentence is: 1) "he'll just get angrier in prison." 2) "After 25 years on the bench I no longer believe in punishment." OK. perhaps, you should stop sitting on the bench then you jerk! I am not trying to make a case for capital punishment, but there was a time in America, not too long ago, when the rapist would be getting a knock on his door late at night and be greeted by some manly men waiting to show him a thing or two with a rope. The second door that the townsfolk would knock on would be the judge's door. Do people stand for this crap?!

that's insane. dumb judge especially. you did spell Sharon wrong :) and this is all i've got for comments.
yup, hehe, i meant half. I have a big problem with atrocities being blamed on God, including "natural disasters." I think we're blind by thinking that God has a hand in EVERYTHING. We forget that creation is groaning. Creation, as well as humanity, was affected by the fall. If Katrina was "for a reason" by God then God is killing people for some divine reason that we cannot see (aka: a divine blue print). Some things happened in the O.T. for a specific purpose, but this is getting too long already:)
