Everchanging "origin of life" timeline
Atrocious. That's what I felt when I read this article. I am sure so many people must be lapping this all up. They do not have a problem with all the ever changing "thoughts" of our beloved scientists. If it was said by a scientist then it must be a hardcore fact. Let me take some of the lines of the article to show you what I mean..."Many scientists had thought the violent pelting by massive asteroids during the period known as the Late Heavy Bombardment would have melted the Earth's crust and vaporized any life on the planet." The scientists themselves admit it is their thought. And of course they have the right to change their thoughts multiple number of times. There was also recently a hyped up case of discovering Ida,humans earliest ancestor which even Time magazine brushed it off as a ballyhoo.
= 
??!!I do not have any problem with our scientists about their thoughts and assumptions. It is when they say that we have to take their word as the gospel truth that I find difficult to come to terms with. It is heresy if you question their deductions and their latest version of the origin of life. I feel sorry for the people who are mislead by these scientists. Matt 15:14 talks about blind leaders of the blind.I feel this is all like a part at controlling our minds. This kind of mind control is already being used constantly on America’s children through the public education system, the secular media, and science museums even in many "Christian" schools and colleges.Take for example this mandatory lesson about homosexuality for kindergartners!! http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=99442
Isn't this sad? I welcome any comments.
God bless you.

Lust for entertainment
It is sad to see the sorry state of Christianity today. Everything has to be a form of entertainment. You will be surprised at the growing number of "Christian" rock bands and "Christian" movies being released everyday. Do these things which have the Christian tag attached to them, in any way send the message what Christ preached? Do they even come close?
How long will it take for us to understand that rather than bringing people to Christ, these kind of entertainment actually take our youngsters far away from the love and salvation that Christ preached. I can tell you that they are far from the Kingdom of God. Rom 14:17. Looking at the old testament, we see how God was angry at the Israelites who abandoned Him to go after their own lusts when Moses had gone up the mountain to receive His Commandments. He calls them idolaters. 1 Cor 10:7.
I was really surprised to read a news article telling about how even Churches are bringing out movies in the name of spreading the Gospel. Read it here:
How can a movie ever bring a person to Christ? All it does is create an emotional high for sometime just like how people jump around and wave their arms and scream during a rock concert!! Does it bring about true repentance?? Does it bring about the true yearning for Christ?How about bringing about a change of heart and becoming a new creation? 2 Cor 5:17.
Talking about diluting the Word of God, we see mega churches springing up everywhere preaching about prosperity and riches and promotion while leaving out the message of the cross and denying oneself. Mark 8:34. They say that all you gotta do is to "invite Jesus" into your life by saying a short prayer and that's it!! YOU ARE SAVED!! Now you can live any way that you want to. Nobody is going to question you or point out your faults. Sheep without a shepherd! That's what I would call them.
Next we have church campaigns and billboards advertising about sex to increase their attendance!!
Is this something which you need to preach from the pulpit? This is the sorry state we are in today. We need to turn back my friends. Let us leave our lust for entertainment. Lets not make our places of worship as another place of entertainment.
God bless you.

Money money money
http://www.onenewsnow.com/Church/Default.aspx?id=450424
The Bible says that the love of money is the root of all evil in 1 Timothy 6:10 and Hebrews 13:5. How true. Recently I heard how certain well known ministers and televangelists were accused of amassing wealth and living an luxurious lifestyle. It was dumbfounding to read about their number of mansions, luxury cars and private jets.
These are our ministers, the very people who should be an example for others to follow and supposedly ministering the word of God. Jesus said that He came to serve and not to be served Matthew 20:28. He also said that He have no place to rest His head Matthew 8:20.
So we expect such ministers to be ashamed of their actions right? No. They are crying foul. They accuse that the government is trying to interfere in their finances. Well, who is to blame for that now? It wouldn't have happened if you were a "Christ"ian in the first place. I do not believe they are true followers of Christ since He said that no man can serve two masters Matthew 6:24.
May God forgive you for dishonoring His name.
"Family" Guy
I had recently mentioned in a post about our "conservative" channels and our "conservative" audience. Here is some more proof of their conservative garbage. 
The name of the program itself is an insult to anyone with a family. And I am sure these kinds of programs will have a high viewership. Why do you think all these programs are broadcasted without any censorship? What is the ultimate aim of any channel or any industry for that matter? It ultimately boils down to....Money. That’s all what matters.....give them what they want. You will be amazed if you browse through their website. The kind of news and ads that they post on their front page are purely disgusting.
If you have anything to do with Christ, it will be obvious from from your character and actions. Everything that you do will be a reflection of that 2 Peter 1:4.
God bless you

U.K. Deports Christians Under New Immigration Rules
http://www.charismamag.com/index.php/news/20031-uk-deports-christians-under-new-immigration-rulesYeah you heard that right, kicked out! I am not talking of any country in the middle east. It is a new visa regulation.....you gotta have work visas for doing anything connected with Christianity.This is the country which used to send out missionaries to the whole world. It used to be said that the Sun never sets on the British empire. It sounds to me like it is setting now.I have got to agree, we are truly "evolving"!!

The coming evangelical collapse
I found this to be a very helpful and informative article by Michael Spencer. I hope this serves as a warning for us. I know that the damage is already done but I am sure it might still not be too late for many parents. The article highlights very well the areas where we failed.
Many Americans believe that being conservative = being a christian. I have heard many christians proudly say that they watch only conservative news channels not the liberal ones. I will say you are really muddled up. You cannot mix Christianity with political conservatism. That is not what Christ taught. That is not why He called you. I do not want to get into any specifics here but lets come back to Him.
The Bible says in Romans 10:21, All day longI have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. Again in Romans 8:7, Because the carnal mind is enmity against God:for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

Judge orders homeschoolers into public district classrooms
The funny part of the above story is that the children tested above their grade levels by 2 years and that the mother moved into a home school schedule because the children were not doing as well as she hoped at the local public schools!!
The Judge acknowledges that he was putting his judgement in place of the mother.This is in spite of the recent ruling by a California court recognising homeschooling as a form of private school. Their ruling states that "Parents possess a constitutional liberty interest in directing the education of their children, but the right must yield to state interests in certain circumstances."
So there...if it can happen to her, it can happen to anybody. Can you believe this? You have lost your constitutional right to make educational choices for your children. Where is this country heading?
Survey finds more Americans have no religion
I do not think if anyone was surprised with this recent survey. It is very obvious. I was reading through different christian blogs the last couple of days and was saddened to read the comments of readers. Majority of them are against anything to do with the Bible or God. Some are so vehement in their accusations. The articles by the way were very inspiring for me and strengthened my faith but I found out that no matter how you put it, they simply wouldn't believe. Their "faith" in atheism is so strong. That brings to mind a scripture:
"You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving."
For this people's heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them. Acts 28:26,27 (NIV).
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving."

Embryonic stem cell research - Need of the hour?
As I am writing this President Obama has signed an order lifting restrictions on stem cell research funding or if I put it more specifically, embryonic stem cell research. I cannot understand why is the President in such a hurry? Is he fulfilling all his promises to the public he made as a presidential candidate? Or is he trying to distract the public from the economic crisis? I am not sure. Warren Buffet who is called as the "worlds best investor"says today that the Economy has fallen off a cliff!! While the World Bank said that the economy is worst since the Great Depression.
What I want to know is if this is really necessary now in the present scenario? Lets get a few facts straight first. Federal funding was limited in embryonic stem cells research to a few existing stem cell colonies but this did not mean that stem cell research was illegal. Just like the recent reversal of anti abortion policy, it does not mean there were no abortions taking place in the country! The only difference is Federal funding. Now you have plenty of taxpayers money at your disposal for "research". And mind you, such research has been going on in other countries where there are no regulations on ES research for quite some time now. And do you want to know the outcome of so much of research? Let me quote from Wikipedia:
After nearly 10 years of research, there are no approved treatments or human trials using ES cells. ES cells being pluripotent cells, require specific signals for correct differentiation - if injected directly into another body, ES cells will differentiate into many different type of cells, causing a teratoma(ie a tumor) Because of their combined abilities of onlimited expansion and pluripotency. ES cells remain a theoritically potential source for regenerative medicine and tissue replacement after injury or disease.
Here is a recent news article about a boy who recieved ES cells:
Here's another article from the National health service UK which warns patients against "rogue" clinics offering stem cells treatment:
Whats more interesting now is the recent advances being made in creating stem cells without using embryos:
So what is the need of repealing a previous executive order dear President Obama? What do you intend to gain other than opening up a Pandora"s box? You said embryos can be got from couples who donate them willingly or from fertility clinics where there are plenty. Do you believe that human life is different from other forms of life dear President? Do you know that we are created in the very image of God?
Are you trying to play God Mr. President?
Let me leave you with a word from the Scriptures. Any comments are welcome.
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mothers womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well. Psalms 139:13,14 (NIV).
God bless you
