today's round-up

IMAGINE NOAH

Harold Camping, 89, of Oakland-Calif.-based Family Radio

made worldwide headlines in recent months for his

prediction that Judgment Day was guaranteed to be May 21,

2011, prompting many believers to quit their regular jobs

to help spread the warning....It was not the first time

Camping got the forecast wrong, having prognosticated the

return of Jesus numerous times, including 1994. "This guy

is something else,"We are calling for the Family Radio

board to remove him."

Another atheist with the group, Bob Seidensticker, said,

"There must be consequences. For this radio network to be

financially healthy when they have caused many of their

listeners to be destitute or distraught – that's wrong. We

want a way for those injured by this prediction to come

forward so they can be compensated by Family Radio."

"There must be consequences. For this

bank/entertainer/church/employer/political

party/school/advertiser/network news team.. to be

financially healthy when they have caused many of their

listeners/viewers/followers/employees/stockholders to be

destitute or distraught – that's wrong. We want a way for

those injured by this/these prediction(s)/claims etc to

come forward so they can be compensated by Family Radio or

whoever."

++++++++++

..atheists are lamenting that religious organizations are

exempted from disclosure requirements by the Internal

Revenue Service, precluding the public from finding out how

much money Camping and his network have collected from the

Judgment Day campaign.

 

...we call on Congress to make the rules consistent for all

nonprofits. If a ministry is comfortable with God knowing

how it spends its money, surely it can't have anything to

hide from the public."

He will have acted not as a constitutional representative,

but as a monarch, subversive of, or above, the law." - Dr.

Larry Arnn of the Claremont Institute

 

'For one man to defy a law or court order he does not like

is to invite others to do the same. This leads to a

breakdown of all justice. Some societies respect the rule

of force; America respects the rule of law.' - Kennedy

 

"Votes alone do not make a person president of the United

States. There is a requirement that precedes obtaining the

power and authority of obtaining the presidency. It is the

oath of office. It is swearing to preserve, protect and

defend the Constitution. It is accepting the obligation

that the laws are to be faithfully executed. - Rogan

The date was July 16, 2008. It was late in the afternoon

and I was sitting in my hotel room in Louisville, Kentucky.

I was scheduled to speak that evening for the Kentucky

Association of School Administrators (KASA).

I was a little "down in the dumps." I hadn't gotten to

exercise lately because of my traveling schedule and

recently I'd experienced some mild bouts of vertigo

Patrick Henry Hughes was born with no eyes, and a

tightening of the joints which left him crippled for life.

However, as a child, he was fitted with artificial eyes and

placed in a wheelchair. Before his first birthday, he

discovered the piano. His mom said, "I could hit any note

on the piano, and within one or two tries, he'd get it." By

his second birthday, he was playing requests (You Are My

Sunshine, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star). His father was

ecstatic. "We might not play baseball, but we can play

music together."

 

Today, Patrick is a junior at the University of Louisville.

His father attends classes with him and he's made nearly

all A's, with the exception of 3 B's He's also a part of

the 214 member marching band. You read it right...the

marching band! He's a blind, wheelchair-bound trumpet

player; and he and his father do it together. They attend

all the band practices and the half-time performance in

front of thousands. His father rolls and rotates his son

around the field to the cheers of Patrick's fans. In order

to attend Patrick's classes and every band practice, his

father works the graveyard shift at UPS. Patrick said..."My

dad's my hero."

Once again, Cameron Diaz is earning headlines for her

comments about marriage.

The 38-year-old actress has had a succession of boyfriends

but has never married. Recently she told one magazine,

"Marriage isn't important to me … If I try to lock

something down, I'm missing out on all the possibilities of

what it could be."

 

When another interviewer asked if she believes marriage is

a dying institution, she answered, "I do. I think we have

to make our own rules. I don't think we should live our

lives in relationships based off old traditions that don't

suit our world any longer."
