Muslim writer: Jerusalem not sacred
"The Egyptian columnist noted most of the inhabitants of Palestine at that time were Christians and a Jewish minority. " Speaking of the time of Muhammad, roughly 600 AD.
The Empty Space of Nothingness
Suit over Decalogue dismissed
"In a suit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union, Thompson ruled last year the monument violates the establishment clause, which provides that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion." There should not be a period at that point in the sentance. The period kinda leaves out a very important point.
What does this have to do with congress? Congress did not put the monument there, made no law providing for it, and the rest of that sentance is "... or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" I still think Allan Keyes is right about this. It doesn't seem like anyone really cares that the foundation upon which this great country was founded is being undermined and it's been going on since it's establishment - now it's near the point of collapse. The U.S. is being attacked from within and without, and we're rotting away spiritually so we don't have the combination of moral compass, strength and perseverance to withstand it.
How To Call The Police
I doubt this actually happened but ...
"George was going to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things. He phoned the police, who asked 'Is someone in your house?' and George said no. Then the police said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available. George said 'OK' hung up, counted 30, and phoned the police again. 'Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now ' cause I just shot them all.'
Then he hung up. Within 5 minutes three police cars, an armed response unit, and an ambulance showed up at his house. Of course, the police caught the burglars redhanded. One of the policeman said to George: 'I thought you said you shot them!' George said, 'I thought you said there was nobody available!' "
It's The Soldier
Who has given us freedom of the press.
IT IS THE SOLDIER, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of speech.
IT IS THE SOLDIER, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
IT IS THE SOLDIER, not the lawyer,
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.
IT IS THE SOLDIER, who salutes the flag,
Who serves under the flag and
Whose coffin is draped by the flag
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.
IT IS THE SOLDIER
