Modern Day IdolatryPosted by Lorren on July 16, 2007
You shall have no other Gods before me.
~ Exodus 20:3
Many people in America have heard this verse, along with the following verses that tell people not to make any graven images and bow to them. Don’t these commandments bring to mind images of people carving statues and bowing to them? We don’t do [...]
China Sends The Christians AwayPosted by Lorren on
More than 100 foreign Christian missionaries have been recently expelled from China. Many of these missionaries were from the United States, Canada, South Korea, Australia, Singapore, and Israel.
I’m really not trying to turn this into “The China Blog” but there are just too many stories coming out of there right now. Most Christians [...]
Is John Stossel Right About Price Gouging? Zimbabwe and FoodPosted by Lorren on July 15, 2007
Right now, Zimbabwe is facing a crisis. The people are starving. The president, in his infinite wisdom, has decided to ban the import of groceries for resale, despite starvation in the country.
I guess he’s afraid of price gouging. There seems to be an inflationary crisis going on there. He recently forced [...]
Chinese Chopped Cardboard: Yum?Posted by Lorren on
*** THIS STORY WAS FOUND TO BE A HOAX. ***
Not trying to harp on China or anything, but eeew. Fox News has a report about a man who served steamed buns in a neighborhood in China. The main ingredient: chopped cardboard softened in an industrial chemical. It was then mixed with [...]
China Returns US MeatPosted by Lorren on July 14, 2007
In a previous post, I mentioned that China has been importing shoddy and/or dangerous products into our country. Some pets have died from poisons in Chinese pet food, poison has been found in Chinese toothpaste, even diapers imported from China have been found with mold in them. Clearly, the quality of Chinese imports [...]

If you go to the actual YouTube site, there’s a lot of religious bickering and some foul language (you are warned).
You Go! Hindu Senate Prayer DisruptedPosted by Lorren on
The Hindu prayer in the Senate has been news lately. It has been something that I haven’t been thrilled about, but what are you going to do? I should have written my senators to complain… maybe I should have.
Well, today I heard the rest of the story. During this guy’s “prayer”, some [...]
Supreme Court Addresses Homeschooling!Posted by Lorren on July 11, 2007
I saw this and just had to address it before I headed off to bed. I found this on the HSLDA (Home School Legal Defense Association) web site:
In Morse v. Frederick, however, Justice Clarence Thomas said, “If parents do not like the rules imposed by those schools, they can seek redress in school boards [...]
George Tiller, The Baby Killer, Charged Then VandalizedPosted by Lorren on July 10, 2007
I originally was going to write a post on this guy, but I guess I couldn’t find the words for it. I couldn’t find words nice to use for him, and what I did say wasn’t really constructive either.
George Tiller, the baby killer, notable for his late-term abortions in Kansas, was charged with 19 [...]
Home Ownership = The Right To Be Billed And Taxed To Death?Posted by Lorren on
Something has gone dreadfully wrong in this country, supposedly “the land of the free”. So what are the freedoms that we are supposed to have, anyway? And where have they gone?
Take, for example, the airlines. Once upon a time, when I was an Airman Apprentice in the US Navy, I took a [...]
