Democratic disciphering and Constitution Crisis.

I'm not a gentleman nor a scholar, and I have to give credit where credit is due and that would be to nobody. I understand that the USA is in a constitutional crisis and more than that there is a tremendous amount of let down where one democratic party seems to have all the answers, and one republican party is running on a dime and a dream. I don't pretend to understand all of the financial problems that this country is facing, so I believe I stand in good company with a man who happens to be a Governor, oh and a Mormon. If looks could kill I'd give the job to Mitt Romney, but the question that seems to be plaguing a confused public is can we live without Big Bird? I have some money saved up, maybe I can donate a couple hundred dollars to American PBS and start a big bird come back after Romney wins the election and cuts Sesame Street. I think we have more to reflect on.

First lets ask a very simple question, who is eligible for the president of the United States? Too hard a question for this moment. Next question, is it really realistic that they can get out of debt, given the very limited capacity of the human mind to comprehend trillions of dollars? Can we comprehend now the mess that the world economy is in right now and do we have the guts to ad mitt to one another that we don't have the solution to the problem? I give you a parable:

There once was a giant ogar named Ralph who owed me ten million dollars. Ralph became the president of my corporation and made enough money to pay me back. Every day and night I would go to Ralph and ask him for my money back. He would just smile and give me a tuna fish sandwich. Ralph new I was not fed properly so he knew he could tempt me with food other than money. Every time I would give in to Ralph he would change the tuna fish to salmon. I hate salmon, so one day I refused to take the food from Ralph and demanded my money. One day Ralph actually gave me back all my money but I was so taken aback by this that I refused to take it and accepted the tuna fish instead, moral..Don't lend money to anyone who's name begins with R.

Good luck United States.

Some Bible Verses on Money.

  Bible verses about money. I bet you didn’t think the bible said that? Proverbs 23:5 When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky.  1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Proverbs 13:11 Wealth quickly gained is quickly wasted — easy come, easy go! But if you gradually gain wealth, you will watch it grow. Psalm 62:10 Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the centre of your life. Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again. Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storeho...

My Story.

  In 1999 I suffered a mental health crisis and admitted myself into the hospital where I live, in which I was given a mental health diagnosis. I didn’t want to receive medication at the time, but unwillingly accepted it. I was in the hospital for about two months, when I asked my doctor if I could go home, and he said yes, even though he thought it would have been better if I stayed longer.   I was glad to be home though, but at 25, it took some adjusting to feel truly at home. One of the problems I was having at home was it was hard for me to eat the food in the house. I was having a psychosis where I felt the food wasn’t mine, and I literally had to go out to eat, or buy bread from the supermarket and take it home to eat it. Eventually this wore off, but I don’t remember how long.  I was now on ODSP and had a check come to me every month in order to have financial support. I would occasionally have a crisis, and ask my mom to drive me to the hospital, but eventually th...

Why has the church lost its capacity and power?

  The church has modernized itself and in the process has lost something very valuable. It has lost its capacity to be personable. The way we reach lost souls is by seeing them, by getting to know them, and by recognizing them, but people are getting lost in the church. The church has become a busy place and is also becoming a less holy place. To make disciples we have to get to know people, and technology in the church is depersonalizing souls, and depersonalizing God for them. Faith becomes a marketable commodity, whereas in the past, churches and their leaders nourished and valued personal faith. While faith is still valued, it’s becoming something that is marketable, which reminds me of the story of Jesus in the temple turning over tables (Matthew 21:12-17). The problem isn’t that the church doesn’t work or doesn’t want to share the gospel, it could be how we are doing it. The church is currently being run like a business, and each Christian metaphorically speaking has a profit...
