I agree, I went with the wife in January once, and it was PERFECT.

I won't go any other time, ever again.

  I sure wish I knew what to tell you.  I know that my son went through some real bad shit by loosing his job.  Thanks to some good luck in my life and working time to put some money back I was able to save his house and car and feed him.  Because his back was to the wall.

   He went for being a salesman to a maintenance man for a large hotel in Indianapolis.  He lost some money per hour.  But his insurance is better.  They furnish his cloths and feed him a meal every day and for 12 hours two meals.  He lost all of the pressure of sales and is much happier.  He would like more, but right now he just happy to have found a job.  Good luck.

  When I see so many people, late 40s and 50s who worked every day of their lives, going that they have been taught is right.  Maybe playing a little more grass hopper than a ant with buying too many over priced things and unneeded things.  Loose every thing because the damn predatory capitalist sent their jobs out of the country, so "they" could make "more profit".

  So many of these people drank the KoolAid :koolaid: of we don't need to manufacture any thing, we need high tech jobs.  It sure didn't work.  I wonder how many of these people you see riding around in the new or newer foreign car is under water on it and their house.

Christian woman sentenced to death in Pakistan 'for blasphemy'

A Christian woman has been sentenced to hang in Pakistan after being convicted of defaming the Prophet Mohammed.


Asia Bibi, a 45-year-old mother-of-five, denies blasphemy and told investigators that she was being persecuted for her faith in a country where Christians face routine harassment and discrimination.

Christian groups and human rights campaigners condemned the verdict and called for the blasphemy laws to be repealed.

Her supporters say she will now appeal against the sentence handed down in a local court in the town of Sheikhupura, near Lahore, Pakistan.

Ashiq Masih, her husband, said he had not had the heart to break the news to two of their children.

"I haven't told two of my younger daughters about the court's decision," he said. "They asked me many times about their mother but I can't get the courage to tell them that the judge has sentenced their mother to capital punishment for a crime she never committed." Mrs Bibi has been held in prison since June last year.

The court heard she had been working as a farmhand in fields with other women, when she was asked to fetch drinking water.

Some of the other women – all Muslims – refused to drink the water as it had been brought by a Christian and was therefore "unclean", according to Mrs Bibi's evidence, sparking a row.

The incident was forgotten until a few days later when Mrs Bibi said she was set upon by a mob.

The police were called and took her to a police station for her own safety.

Shahzad Kamran, of the Sharing Life Ministry Pakistan, said: "The police were under pressure from this Muslim mob, including clerics, asking for Asia to be killed because she had spoken ill of the Prophet Mohammed.

"So after the police saved her life they then registered a blasphemy case against her." He added that she had been held in isolation for more than a year before being sentenced to death on Monday.

"The trial was clear," he said. "She was innocent and did not say those words." Earlier this year, Pakistan's internet service providers were ordered to block Facebook to prevent access to supposedly blasphemous images.

Human rights groups believe the law is often used to discriminate against religious minorities, such as the country's estimated three million Christians.

Although no one has ever been executed under Pakistan's blasphemy laws – most are freed on appeal – as many as 10 people are thought to have been murdered while on trial.

Ali Hasan Dayan, of Human Rights Watch, said the blasphemy laws were out of step with rights guaranteed under Pakistan's constitution and should be repealed.

"It's an obscene law," he said. "Essentially the blasphemy law is used as a tool of persecution and to settle other scores that are nothing to do with religion.

"It makes religious minorities particularly vulnerable because it's often used against them."

If this doesn't show you that God sucks and the whole thing really is a bunch of crap, nothing will.  How stupid is this group to be vexed over something as simple as this?  :rotfl:




A Scottish church has voted to allow the singing of hymns and playing of musical instruments for the first time in 160 years, according to a report.

The Free Church of Scotland, which split from the Presbyterian Church of Scotland in 1843, currently only allows unaccompanied psalm singing during public worship.

The BBC reported that commissioners of the church voted by a majority of 14 — 98 to 84 —a plenary assembly in Edinburgh to allow hymns and instruments.

The vote had been called by conservatives who argued they should consult the church's membership before making a decision, the BBC said. It was the first plenary session since the church was founded.

"There are few of us who believe it is sinful to sing hymns ... If worship in other (churches) is acceptable to God how can it be unacceptable in our church?" one supporter of the move told the assembly, according to the church's website. "Many of us love to quote from hymns. I can speak a hymn, but if I ask you to sing it it is unacceptable?"

Supporters hope the move will attract more people to the church.

And the Reverend David Robertson, minister of St Peter's Free Church in Dundee, argued that traditional psalms would still be sung despite the decision, the BBC reported.

However, a report by the Church Board of Trustees said the rules should stay the same.

  Only about 22% of the people in the world profess that they are Christian.  If the only way to get to heaven is through Jesus Christ heaven sure is going to be empty.  I sure can't see in the 21ST Century that anyone would believe all of that religious bullshit.

  If Pakistan executes that woman all aid should be stopped to them.  The stupid bastards should be dead.  They are the scum of the earth.  Everybody in power tries to tell you that the Muslim religion is peaceful, my ass, it evil.  Hell their Koran tells you that if you won't convert, we will kill you.  Isn't that enough to tell you the bastards want you dead.  Because I am sure not converting,   I want to "Reload" as Palin says.

It seems to happen every few months: someone sees an image of Christ -- in everything from French toast to a grilled-cheese sandwich.

Now just a few days before Christmas, a West Toledo semi-retired man thinks he's found the Virgin Mary and Baby Jesus in a piece of hard holiday candy.

The piece of hard tack nearly gave James Burrows a heart attack. The 63-year old immediately saw the image of Christ in the Christmas candy, along with the Virgin Mary.

Sweet (literally) baby jeebus and the virgin herself!  :spooked: :biggrin:
