As soon as I heard the Somali origin of the attacker, my mind turned to the Lutheran World Services, which has settled hundreds, if not thousands, of Somalis in the Midwest, financed by you and me, the U.S taxpayer.
I do not think many of them have given up on their Muslim religion, or assimilated in any way to the US.
I am beginning to think that any Muslim could be a sleeping time bomb.
And I wonder is the Mainstream Media counting up all the attacks that have gone on since Obama became president? I remember one in Santa Monica caused a lot of problems.
In the same way, people used to be worried about voting for that serial philanderer, John F Kennedy, because he was a Catholic. They thought--will he take ultimate orders from the Pope?
Well, it's a good thing the Pope was not an attractive woman that he would 'hit on.' |

This reminds me of Jesus' family flight into Egypt until Herod had died, so they could return. I wonder how many Cubans in the USA will return to Cuba, since they have been beating their chests and saying, "I will not go back while Fidel is still alive!"
His brother Raul never figured into their calculations, and he is doing something that Fidel never thought to do--groom his own family members to take over the reins of power when he, too, passes away.
So, for every Cuban who rejoices over Fidel's death, you must ask them, And what about Raul? Is he still alive? And when he dies, will his family take over?
It's already set in place.
I also have a nagging thought that maybe, just maybe, Fidel, upon seeing Trump's election, was upset with the changes that have been promised, including dropping that 'wet foot-dry foot' policy towards Cubans arriving by sea, and did not want to hang around to fight it.
Now it is up to us, the consumer of news, to see how our media plays the story. Do they name Fidel as dictator that he was? Do they interview any political prisoners from Cuba? |

Thanks, 'Christopher' from 'Rhode Island,' for giving testimony of the usefulness of technology. Many people use their smartphones today instead of carrying around a heavy laptop; I can't tell you how many times I get responses from emails telling me they sent it from their phone. Of course that means it is hard for them to make a long message, and the constant demand is always to move on to the next new thing.
There is a smartphone application that I just heard about that would make door to door evangelism easier. It allows you to map the residences you visited, comment on your visit, like total rejection, call me later, accepted more visits, needs prayer for sick relative, and so forth.
With several people doing this, you could easily cover an entire neighborhood and report back to your church the needs you have found, and then order more tracts or Bibles to give out. Who knows if someone will invent another application to organize a small group meeting from that information?
All to say that technology can be very helpful in accomplishing the Great Commission. I've already seen others using it in far away places to take the Bible in audio format in languages not yet translated. |

They say changing the government is like changing the direction of a huge ocean freighter or cruise ship. It takes a long time. In this case, they will have much of the crew fighting against any change, and the media, the Best Friend Forever of the Dems, will be slanting their coverage to make any change look bad, stupid, and not American.
After 4 years of this constant conflict, the Dems should have their act together--all they have to do is find some decent person to run for office and they will win the presidency. The media will play it, 'aren't you tired of all the conflict? don't you want Peace and Harmony?' Already they are playing that theme--Republicans must 'reach out' to make nice with the Democrats. Funny, but I don't remember Cubs fans being told to reach out to the Indians fans. I don't remember the US reaching out to Japanese after WW2. Instead, the US imposed their form of government on Japan which they still follow to this day. |

I am fascinated by this election, and all the lessons that can be drawn from it.
1. Have you seen the map by counties that shows the USA mostly red?
Yet the stats show the popular vote was won by the Dems.
I wish that map was in 3-D to add the number of votes on a vertical or y-axis. This would show huge towers in areas like NYC, Chicago, LA, Denver, Atlanta, Miami, etc. But smaller mountains in the red counties.
You would see that the USA is divided by urban vs. rural and suburban areas, and, despite what urban planners hope, many do not want to live in condos in those big cities.
2. The press failed the country by not providing more analysis of why Trump was drawing huge numbers while Clinton and Kaine could not. And they failed by not providing unbiased coverage. Ninety percent of the press are Democrats, so they assume everyone is like them. They did not cover accurately all the scandals with the Democrats that Wikileaks revealed, like the treatment of Sanders voters, Catholics, etc.
If they had been calling attention to these problems from Day One, maybe they would have made the Dem Party select better candidates.
Remember this: any Democrat not marked by all the scandals that the Clintons have will win the next election, and the one after that, and so on. |
