Tower of Bable

Gen 11:1  And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 
Gen 11:2  And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 
Gen 11:3  And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. 
Gen 11:4  And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. 
Gen 11:5  And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 
Gen 11:6  And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 
Gen 11   Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 
Gen 11:8  So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. 
Gen 11   Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth. 

So much for free will
If this god is all knowing then why does this come as a shock to him??
It seems this god is interfering in the progress of the people he says he loves

Here endth today's lesson

I wrote this nine years ago ....... just putting it out there

Dearest Sadie,

As one goes through life, and within that life, there are days and moments that we do not realize the magic that is within that moment or day until we are in it or it is past. I believe this is one of those days or moments. Perhaps you will have been too young to remember this day. You will only have to look upon the people that are important in your life to know that something wondrous took place many moons ago, to be excepted into a world and family that holds many fine beliefs and traditions.

Sadie's Morning Song

As Father Sun rises from his sleep
His morning rays kissing the Earth
You are presented to him
Holding you in his warm embrace
Kissing your young face
Welcoming you into his family

May you always delight in the new day
That comes with the rising of the morning sun
To see the possibilities in the new morning
Let the present nourish your soul
Your dreams guide you to the future
The future holding wonderment and surprise

In this life may you travel with many spirits
Showing you the correct path in your journey
To listen to the wisdom of others, young and old
May the spirit of your grandmother live within you
To have the gentleness and softness of her soul
To see the goodness in all men and women

As you grow may your wisdom also follow
May your struggles in life only be as great
As your ability to overcome them
May you have the strength to overcome
The struggles of this world, to learn from them
May you always know love in your life

Tom Emmer and Jason Lewis vote against Puerto Rico aid

These sub-human things make me sick
They deserve to go down with Trump
I do not have the words to describe these vile things that call themselves reps...........

No I didn't

Do we need rules?? ....... yes
Are all rules good?? ........ no
Should stupid rules be pointed out?? ....... yes

Here we have a young girl taking her First Communion, her first steps on the path to her adult relationship with her god.
Should she have the right to face her god in the manner in which she chooses?? ............. I say yes
She honored her father and mother by asking them if was okay. I believe that is one of the Ten Commandments.

Please explain what rule she was breaking in wanting to face her god, with her faith and belief, in wanting to face her god and showing her god what she was?? Was she wronging her god by wearing what she thought was good??

In my world any church that goes around raping young children for hundreds of years and then hides that truth deserves no respect.

Always liked Perry Mason/Raymond Burr
