Ensign, Return To Your Posting! Media Spin Philosophy Politics The Anglo-venezuelan Connection

With so much going on in the world, and an uncooperative desktop computer, I feel overwhelmed at all the comments I could have made, but didn't. It's time to do some catching up.

The Communism-Islamofascism Connection: The admiration of Saddam Hussein for Stalin and his purges is well-documented. Now we also see how Hugo Chávez is buddying up to Ahmadinejad. Isn't it interesting how election-stealing thugs of a feather flock together?

End of the World As We Know It? Glenn Beck is now doing an hour of TV every night on CNN Headline News. I'm hearing rants I never thought I'd hear on a CNN channel.

The Coming Mumps Epidemic: Where did it go? I haven't heard any mention of it on the news for over a week now.

Everything New is Old Again: First, The DaVinci Code. Then the Judas "gospel." People just won't learn that their attacks against Christianity will wither in the face of these two promises from the Lord:

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matt. 28:19-20)

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (John 14:26)

"Unto the end of the world," no matter what attacks we may suffer from the many-lettered among us who consider themselves "above it all." Tertullian knew of the Judas "gospel" and dismissed it out-of-hand because of its inconsistency with the validated historical tradition (later called the "New Testament").

And yet, despite all these attacks, I hear no calls for beheading nor reports of riots. Unlike some other perpetually-offended "victims."
