Senior Catholics are said to have been "mystified and astonished" when they heard that the purveyor of newspaper sex, scandal and nudity was made a Knight Commander of St Gregory...

Joanna Bogle, of the Association of Catholic Women, described the decision to honour Mr Murdoch as "absurd".

Speaking in a personal capacity, she said: "It sends out the message that you can make a living out of something - soft pornography - that is regarded by the Church as sinful, and yet you can be awarded for it. The Knighthood of St Gregory is supposed to be about honour and chivalry and and splendour. To give it to Murdoch is ridiculous and wrong." http://www.independent.co.uk/news/catholic-anger-at-murdochs-papal-knighthood-1145252.html

 The White House threw its backing behind a bill that would repeal a 15-year-old law that defines marriage as between a man and a woman. Washington Post, July 20, 2011

Happy Rogers, age 8, stands among her classmates in the schoolyard at dismissal time, immune, it seems, to the cacophonous din. Her parents and baby sister are waiting outside, but still she lingers, engrossed in conversation. A poised and precocious blonde, Hilton Augusta Parker Rogers, nicknamed Happy, would be at home in the schoolyard of any affluent American suburb or big-city private school. But here, at the elite, bilingual Nanyang Primary School in Singapore, Happy is in the minority, her Dakota Fanning hair shimmering in a sea of darker heads. This is what her parents have traveled halfway around the world for. While her American peers are feasting on the idiocies fed to them by junk TV and summer movies, Happy is navigating her friendships and doing her homework entirely in Mandarin.

Fluency in Chinese, she says—in English—through mouthfuls of spaghetti bolognese at a Singapore restaurant, “is going to make me better and smarter.” For a great picture and more, http://www.newsweek.com/2011/07/17/american-kids-immersed-in-chinese-asian-education.html

Happy is probably smarter than 99% in this country, but her parents should consider Israel as their next destination for reasons posted at http://Exodus2.info

 

California Gov. Edmund Brown signed legislation that requires public schools to teach that homosexuals, transgenders and others alternative sexual lifestyles are positive role models for children in public schools. WorldNetDaily, 7-14-2011

Speaking of the end-times, Christ said, “It was the same in the days of Lot,” Luke 17:28. God destroyed Sodom in an act of judgment. If you love your children and want what’s best, get them out of public schools. Private and church-based schools flourish, and many spelling bees and science awards go to home-schoolers, supporting God’s words to Israel, “You shall teach them…” Deuteronomy 6:7

1.  Both Egypt and the US were the strongest nations in their respective times.

2. Both Egypt and the US were the source of food in times of plenty or famine

3. Both Egypt and the US fit descriptions of “king of the south” in Daniel 11.

4. Both Egypt and the US had/have many gods.

5. Both Egypt and the US had/have many Israelites.

6. Both Egypt and the US with bondage (to false principles of health, education and welfare in US)

7. Both Egypt and the US guilty of infanticide / abortion

8. Exodus promised from both Egypt and the US, Jer 31:1,8,10,17; Ezek 36:24

9. God wasted the land of Egypt as He promises to do in our time, Zeph 1:2,3; Rev 14:9,10.

10. Giants in the Promised Land deterred Israel from leaving; today there are similar deterrents.

God says there is none like Him, declaring the end from the beginning. In Genesis 22, God shows the end of militant Islam when Isaac was saved from sacrifice by a ram caught by its horns in a bush. The Quran says Ishmael was spared by sacrificing the ram. Which is right?

Government is not “your 1 and only god” though it promises HEW (Health, Education and Welfare) and does a POOR job in each area. It redefined “healthcare” as medical care (now a leading cause of death) and says almost nothing about nutrition as it is steadily undermines agriculture with herbicides, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) and Terminator Seed. 

Stupid congressmen have been wined, dined and given re-election campaign funds (or threatened with funds for their opponent) if they did not favor greedy corporations with “Silent Spring” legisation.

The media is silent as well, so you won’t understand until you hurt bad and it will be too late to find real help to addresses the cause, but “here’s something for the pain…”
