This quote brought a smile to my face today:

Quote
On Tuesday, Graham leveled deep criticism at the United States. He compared the country to Sodom and Gomorrah, the Biblical cities synonymous with sin.

Quote
"Self-centered indulgence, pride, and a lack of shame over sin are now emblems of the American lifestyle," Graham writes in the open letter released by his organization this week.

http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2012/07/26/evangelist-billy-graham-defends-chick-fil-a/?hpt=hp_c2

Unfourtantely Billy was unable to be reached on why he refused to use the word Babylon.

Is this meant as a birthday present to Gebre?   I think there is a saying about satire being a form of flattery.  I wish him a happy birthday, in any event.

Happy birthday Trevor! I know you remain among the best of us. And I am glad your friends have someone like you around at such a terrible time.

It is an education process for me as I learn about the psychology of spiritual apostasy. And others get the benefit of perhaps hearing righteousness for the first time.
