This quote brought a smile to my face today: On Tuesday, Graham leveled deep criticism at the United States. He compared the country to Sodom and Gomorrah, the Biblical cities synonymous with sin. "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_c2Unfourtantely 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.

We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts. We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage.

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.
