I Read the News Today..... Hooboy...

Have you heard the latest? A homosexual activist group at NYU is accusing the Bush administration of spying on them and anti-war protesters. The anti-war group is Students Against War at the University of California at Santa Cruz. The punch line is that the spokesman for the group admits he has no proof.

A leftist hate group accusing somebody without proof? Gee, that's a big surprise.

Want more?

Did you hear that Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow (some call it Monochrome) Colition returned a $10,000 check from British Petroleum (BP)? JJ says BP doesn't employ enough minorities nor do they have enough owners of BP stations. JJ is probably bluffing and is holding out for a larger extortion check from BP.

We'll here's the good news. BP may decide all together to stop paying extortion money to JJ and the RC. Many NYSE companies are finally realizing that paying extortion money doesn't help the companies because JJ has little or no effect on the purchasing power of blacks or any other minority group.

Among other groups that demand extortion payments are Greenpeace and Sierra Club.

I hope the rest of us realize that extortion is wrong and that we'll stop funding groups that use extortion.

Okay, one more...

From the AP. Delegates of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) are debating whether to adopt "gender-inclusive" language to replace the traditional "Father, Son, and Holy Spirit," wire reports said. A panel is actually studying what is called "fresh ways to speak of the mystery" of the Trinity.

One reason is that language limited to the Father and Son "has been used to support the idea that God is male and that men are superior to women," the panel said.

The gender-inclusive options include "Mother, Child, and Womb," "Creator, Savior, Sanctifier," and "Rock, Redeemer, Friend," the AP reported.

They say
Conservatives (rational thinkers) object to this and believe that the church should stick close to the way God is named in the Bible.

Two professors at the Presbyterians' Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, Andrew Purves and Charles Partee, said there is potential danger that "we not only lose the ground for our language for God, we in fact lose the Trinity. We lose God."

Hooray for the two professors at PPTS.

I had read the article about the presbyterians. Mother, Child, womb? When I think things can get no stranger... someone always proves me wrong.

No kidding. God is who He is and not what someone wants to make Him.

I think there is a version of the Bible that attempted to do that as well...Maybe New International Readers Version? I'm not sure...you may know more about that than I...
