POPSTerrorist Attack on American Soil Would it surprise anyone that the republicans are behind this? That war machine doesn't know where or how to stop. They inflict false fear everywhere and now this. This is really bugging me. This article is originally entitled... Muslim Children Gassed at Dayton Mosque After "Obsession" DVD Hits Ohio. If you like the movie Obsession, check out The Power of Nightmares. Where did the fear that perpetrated this crime come from? Put down the remote and step away from the TV. While pastors are motivating their flocks to come back to church next week they ought to throw in a message on 1 John 2:6 "the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked."

POPSI got my life back. Know somebody praying for an answer? I have one Just a few months back, I was fatigued, rittled with pain and sleep deprived. The excess weight, well, I'd come to accept it due to age and having had had children. But I've found something that has absolutely given me my life back. You know how many diseases and syndromes ride the heels of toxicity? This here cleanses and fuels all at the same time and, while increasing muscle mass I released now, 60lbs. and 62in. This is an answer for somebody. I'm looking for you to deliver it's message.

POPSWhat it takes to be a Catholic man... Pope St. Gregory the Great : "What can we men , fully-grown, but weak, who are overcome by anger, inflated by pride, disquieted by ambition, corrupted by pleasure, when we see young women sent to the sword to the Kingdom of Heaven? We may not be able to attain the kingdom through battle and persecution, but let us be ashamed, that we are unwilling to follow God even in times of peace. At present God is not saying to any of us, "Die for me" , but just put to death the unlawful desires within you! Would we give our bodies for the Lord in time of war, when we are not willing to subdue their desires in time of peace?"

POPSPalin linked electoral success to prayer of Kenyan witchhunter
An African evangelist, Pastor Muthee has given guest sermons at the Wasilla Assembly of God on at least 10 occasions in his role as the founder of the Word of Faith Church, also known as the Prayer Cave. The pastor speaks of his offensive against a demonic presence in the town in a trailer for the evangelical video “Transformations”, Pastor Muthee founded the Prayer Cave in 1989 in Kiambu, Kenya after “God spoke” to him and his late wife Margaret and called him to the country, according to the church’s website. The full Transformations video featuring Pastor Muthee’s story has recently been removed from YouTube but the rest of the story is detailed in a 1999 article in the Christian Science Monitor, as well as on numerous evangelical websites. According to the Christian Science Monitor, six months of fervent prayer and research identified the source of the witchcraft as a local woman called Mama Jane, who ran a “divination” centre called the Emmanuel Clinic.

POPSSome of the smears
Palin only supports abstinence to be taught in sex-ed!" This claim is usually followed by a super classy comment about her daughter and the use of contraception, but the premise is false. Palin hasn't said she doesn't want condoms discussed in sex-ed, calling their discussion "relatively benign." "I'm pro-contraception, and I think kids who may not hear about it at home should hear about it in other avenues. So I am not anti-contraception. But, yeah, abstinence is another alternative that should be discussed with kids. I don't have a problem with that," Palin said. Hers is hardly an extreme point of view in America today. "If she cares about children with special needs, then why did she cut spending on them by 62 percent?" Actually, Palin almost tripled their funding in only three years from $26,900 per student to $73,840 per student. Incidentally, the amount of government money you spend on a specific group doesn't equal the amount you care for that group, but that's an

POPSPalin: Iraq war 'a task that is from God' And I wonder what "God" she is referring to? Last I knew was that "God" is a peaceful entity - not one that promotes and projects war, especially for Gas and Oil. She must either have the wrong God or is totally confused.

POPSPalin Invokes God to Justify Iraq, Pipelines. What a....Repukelican. ..no I won't say what I really think. There are women here I respect too much...But not Sarah, or Cindy McCain or Laura Bush--any woman who can cleave to men like that doesn't deserve MY respect.

POPSBlessed By Misfortune - McCain’s Speech McCain has changed the GOP into the party outside the mess in DC and ready to clean it up. The liberals played the useful idiot roles by giving McCain the opportunity to go off speech and use them of an example of why hyper partisanship has destroyed DC. We don’t want purity to party, we want solutions to problems. McCain reminded us we can easily solve the aging and dysfunctional services like education, energy, taxes, security, etc. McCain, through his own riveting personal story of transformation from self centered cocky fly boy to dedicated man of his country, reintroduced himself to America, and reintroduced us to ourselves. The speech was a huge hit. And the comparisons to Obama were striking.

POPSPalin a Good Christian Soldier Well, there goes her cred in the Arab street. But then, I never thought for a moment that the McCain/Palin ticket was focused on peace in the Middle East. Her proclamation of what amounted to a call for a Crusade just might fit perfectly with the bomb, bomb, bomb - Iran mentality of McCain. These are dangerous people. Unless you wish to keep squandering billions in revenue and wasting countless lives in needless wars they must be defeated in November.

POPSNew evidence for prayer: gas prices Obviously the fluctuation of prices are due to mixed prayers. You see, every few minutes, an Arab prays, “Allah, raise the price of oil!” And Allah answers their prayer. Then an American prays, “Jesus, lower the price of oil!” And Jesus does it. And so on and so forth, thus the fluctuation.

POPSNo Apparent Motive for Ark. Dem HQ Murder A follow up to yesterday's report . In addition to the reaction from the Clintons, this report includes an Obama statement: Michelle and I are heartbroken to hear about the tragic loss of Chairman Bill Gwatney. We're praying for his family and friends and all who worked with him and loved him. Team McCain apparently has no reaction.

POPSPrayer At The Pump Here's one you'll never hear: Oh most merciful Jesus, forgive us Bush LUVIN' fools for our "family values" by slashing social spending and bankrupting the government to pay for tax breaks for the rich, corporate welfare, and an insane, cold war-style buildup, for reversing a half century's work of hard-won environmental protections and ignoring the constitution, for making a human being a king, and for making our "moral values" our issues to shroud our wickedness in Godliness. Please forgive us for our vision, oops, hallucination that we are officially authorized by YOU to decide which values are "family" and "traditional" and how everyone should live by not promoting better wages, work conditions and job security. Forgive us Father, for we have sinned. And please lower the price of gas? AMEN.

POPSWhy Too Much Praying Is A Bad idea It seems to me that a lot of praying, instead of achieving its intended purpose of praise and glorification instead reduces a deity to a petty servant. Internet evangelist Stuart Shepard issued a call to pray that Barack Obama's planned speech in a stadium in Denver gets rained out. That goes beyond petty into the realm of the ridiculous and juvenile.
