An Arresting Affair At The Big Box Church
Can a modified Yugo do 121 mph in a church parking lot? Our church parking lot is so big that tempers can flare during the exodus of worshipers after an inspiring sermon. Horns sporadically blare, and an occasional pedestrian is run over, etc. To curb the chaos and speed the exit process, an “Express Exit” was installed with a speed limit of 120 mph. Find out what happened when I got the old Yugo up to 121 mph: http://www.whtt.org/images/PP-Arresting-Affair.pdf

Aborting Africa
Regardless of what you may think about abortion, that a human isn’t alive until it is self supporting, usually 10 or 12 years old, or that life begins at conception; I believe Obama’s first decision as President seems a bit confusing. It’s not so much the fact that he overturns the order banning federal funding of abortion, of course, as a massive government socialist he would do that; rather, it is that in a time of critical economic downturn and uncertainty about the future he overturns the order allowing taxpayer money to be used to subsidise abortions OUTSIDE the US. To me, that seems fundamentally wrong. You claim we have not enough money to provide for the poor and needy in your own country, but you immediately open the floodgates of sending what little money we have overseas to kill children. And don’t think we wont send that money. 35 minutes after signing the bill, a clinic in Tunisia received it’s first batch of US money since Clinton was in charge in 1997.
But, there is one way in which this does make sense. By promoting and paying for foreign abortions you reduce the number of future soldiers in countries we will eventually occupy, and you increase the possibility of the spread of AIDS, since there will be even less (there was little to begin with) concern about creating a child. Men can now feel safely allowed to rape women, since the woman can now use US money to kill what you create inside her. Nice and easy package deal here, maybe it isn’t so bad after all.
