Men Are Born to Cheat

The Bible says that all humans are born with sin embedded into our very cores.  We are born that way.  Some are born with a bend towards gluttony, some towards idolatry.  Others are born with a bend towards perversion...which may include homosexuality, bestiality, etc...  And I believe it is safe to say that just about ALL MEN are born with the desire to have sex with multiple women.

The gay agenda has been to convince society that since gays are born that way...then to deny them their desires is tragically wrong.  And now that this argument has caught speed in society....we knew it would only be a matter of time until someone pointed out the obvious that men are born with the desire to have sex with MORE THAN ONE WOMAN...and to deny them this is like putting us in a cage that can lead to anger, frustration and contempt...and who wants that??

Monogamy is failing men.

Not only is it failing them, but it's a "socially compelled sexual incarceration" that can lead to a life of anger and contempt, or so says Eric Anderson, an American sociologist at England's University of Winchester and author of the provocative new book, The Monogamy Gap: Men, Love, and the Reality of Cheating (Oxford University Press, $49.99).

Cheating, however, serves men pretty well. An undiscovered affair allows them to keep their relationship and emotional intimacy, and even if they're busted it's a lot easier than admitting that they wanted to screw someone else in the first place, he writes.

In his study of 120 undergraduate men, 78 percent of those who had a partner cheated, "even though they said that they loved and intended to stay with their partner." Contrary to what we may think, most men aren't cheating because they don't love their partner, he says; they cheat because they just want to have sex with others. And society shouldn't pooh-pooh that.

Monogamy's stronghold on our beliefs -- what he calls monogamism -- brings ostracism and judgment to anyone who questions or strays from its boundaries. That doesn't make sense to Anderson, who wonders why we stigmatize someone who has a fling more than couples who divorce -- throwing away a marriage rich in history and love, upsetting their kids' lives -- over something like sex.

Monogamy isn't the only "proper" way to be in a relationship, and he says it's time that society finds "multiple forms of acceptable sexual relationship types -- including sexually open relationships -- that coexist without hierarchy or hegemony." It's especially important for today's young men, for whom monogamous sex seems more boring than in generations past because of easy premarital sex and pornography.

Of course it is Satan who has always been out to destroy God's stated plan to have one women leave her family and be united with one man so that the two should become one.  He realizes that if he can tear this fabric apart that society won't last long and that pain, unwanted pregnancy, abortion, fatherless children, crime rates and ultimately anarchy will be the result.

If he can get society to believe that gay sex is OK and shouldn't be restrained...then it can't be long until society is FORCED to accept bi-sexual sex and marriage, bestiality, multiple wives...and ultimately some woman is going to want to marry chimpanzee...and who will have any right to stop her??  Why should marriage be confined to two humans when orangutans hold 99% of the same DNA as humans?  After all...how do you TRULY define what is human?

Friends, I think it is becoming painfully obvious that we ARE ALREADY ON the slippery slope.  And once you are on that slope and sliding towards the abyss there is really nothing you can do to stop the slide and reverse course.

Of course our God is a God of miracles so can certainly pull us up out of the miry clay and set us on a the straight path.....but it will take the nation to repent like they did in Nineveh when Jonah warned them to repent or be destroyed...and I simply don't see any signs of a great Holy Spirit revival yet happening in America.

Biggest Defense Drill EVER!

I just got done posting on the most evers...EVER!....and turn to the Israel news and see this:

U.S. and Israel Preparing for ‘Biggest Defense Drill Ever’

IDF and U.S. forces will team up soon for a major missile defense exercise, “the biggest one ever” according to military sources.

The Israeli military is gearing up together with U.S. forces for a major missile defense exercise, the IDF announced Thursday.

The Associated Press reported that the “Austere Challenge 12” drill is designed to improve defense systems and cooperation between the U.S. and Israeli forces.

“Defending against an attack is not something that you improvise from today to tomorrow,” Van Creveld told AP. “It’s something you have to prepare, you have to rehearse, you have to prepare for. This, among other things, is an exercise to show Iran, the people in Tehran, that Israel and the United States are ready to counterattack.

How is a guy supposed to keep up on all these EVERS!!  

Most "Evers"...EVER!

The global extremes just continue rolling along.  Ever since we started watching for the word "ever"....we have not been disappointed, and yesterday's incredibly hot weather across the upper Midwest gave us a whole slough full of "evers".

It was 68 degrees in Mitchell, South Dakota yesterday.  That didn't just break the all time high for January 5th....it SHATTERED it by 17 degrees.  As our local weatherman said, "We are witnessing a once in a lifetime weather event!"

More than 300 record high temperatures were set in 21 U.S. states Thursday. But the heart of the unusual warmth concentrated in Plains, where some areas experienced temperatures 40 degrees above average.

Several locations set all-time January record high temperatures, including Huron (65 degrees) and Mitchell (68 degrees) in South Dakota (SD) and Minot (61 degrees), Fargo (55 degrees) and Jamestown (56 degrees) in North Dakota.

What distinguishes this warm spell is the amount by which some records were broken. Consider Rapid City, SD hit 73, obliterating the old record by 13 degrees. (That 73 degree high temperature was 4 above the high temperature of 69 in Miami, Fl). Aberdeen, SD reached 63, smashing the old record of 46 by 17 degrees and setting a new monthly record.

AccuWeather highlighted the following incredible record: “...in Philip, S.D., the mercury reached a balmy 74 degrees, which absolutely obliterated the old record of 46 set back in 2002.”

Across the U.S., almost one thousand high temperature records have been broken or tied this January, and more than 1,400 in the last week.

Wunderground’s Jeff Masters led his daily column this way: Flowers are sprouting in January in New Hampshire, the Sierra Mountains in California are nearly snow-free, and lakes in much of Michigan still have not frozen. It’s 2012, and the new year is ringing in another ridiculously wacky winter for the U.S.

Here;  http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/post/plains-bask-in-historic-record-warm-weather/2012/01/06/gIQAZleBfP_blog.html

I don't know if this is God's way of paying back us Minnesotans for last years MOST MISERABLE WINTER ON RECORD....but if it is then I say "Thank you, God!"

However, lets remember the potential HUGE downside to all this warm weather with NO SNOW....no crops will grow next spring unless we get some rain...and here in MN it hasn't rained since August, which means we are currently experiencing the driest fall and winter EVER!!

No crops=Famine....which Jesus clearly told us was one of the conditions to watch for.

The End of Arab Christianity

I think many of us believed that if the West took out Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, Mubarek, and the Taliban that just MAYBE the small piece of decency that is present in humanity would be given a chance to break out and shine!  And if it could shine for a while then those folks would elect some decent leaders and just MAYBE they could start living in peace with their neighbors.

Of course this isn't happening.  In fact the exact opposite is happening and the Arabs are turning on each other and electing even MORE severe governments than those who we helped overthrow...as in Egypt electing the Muslim Brotherhood.

So what happened?

First off we need to remember that there IS NOT even a tiny piece of decency in human beings....we are all evil from the time of our birth, and our marching orders are given to us by our father, the devil.  That's what the Bible tells us.  The ONLY thing that changes this is when Jesus transforms us into "Children of the Light."

Second off, Jesus came to bring light into the totally dark world.  Without light there is nothing but darkness...and in MOST of these Arab/Muslim countries there is not much light because there are VERY FEW Holy Spirit filled people shining the light into these dark lands.

And now, it appears, that even that tiny, dim light may quickly be snuffed out.

Welcome to a Christians-free Middle East. Arab Christianity is near its extinction everywhere. “Christianity in Iraq could be eradicated in our lifetime, partially as a result of the US troop withdrawal,” declared Leonard Leo, chairman of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom.

Up to 900,000 Christians already fled the country since 2003, according to a recent study by Minority Rights Group International. Benjamin Sleiman, archbishop of Baghdad, also spoke of “the extinction of Christianity in the Middle East.”

In Egypt, 100,000 Christians already left the country after Hosni Mubarak’s fall earlier this year. The Egyptian Union of Human Rights is denouncing this “mass exodus.” This week Egyptian authorities arrested Gamal Massoud, a Coptic Christian student accused of posting a drawing of Islam’s prophet on Facebook that triggered two days of violence in southern Egypt; meanwhile, Muslims were attacking Massoud’s house and chanting “Allahu akbar” or “God is Great.”

For the first time in Syrian history, the current Minister of Defense, Dawud Rajha, is a Christian. Yet this is not a sign of power, but rather, of desperation. Adnan al-Aroor, the Syrian sheikh who has become the religious voice of the uprising against Assad, is urging his followers to “tear apart, chop up and feed” the meat of Christian supporters of the regime “to the dogs.”

Elsewhere, in Gaza, the 3,000 Christians who remain are subjected to persecution and death. Meanwhile, every year some 1,000 Palestinian Christians are leaving their citadel Bethlehem. In a recent Christmas celebration hosted by the Fatah movement, Mohammad Shtayyeh, a central committee member, appealed to Christians to “remain in the land.”

Nonetheless, the Islamic tiger is now devouring the Christian lamb. Indeed, the Christian era in the Middle East is coming to an end.

Here;  http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4171336,00.html

It's kind of funny how we humans like to think in two-part sequences.  For instance, "If we over throw Iraq...it will be a better place."  Or, "If we we give people democracy....then the world will be more peaceful."  Or, "If we are nice to the Muslim countries....then they will ultimately come to love us."

The problem is that the world is MUCH more complex than that.  It's more like a three dimensional chess game than it is a game of checkers.  If you bomb a terrorist in Pakistan...that event can affect about 5 different levels on the world game board...where as we in America would be more prone to think, "We killed a terrorist...so world is now a better place."

And then when you throw in our Adversary, Satan, into the mix who is prowling around like a lion looking to seek and destroy everything....we silly humans are simply over matched and outwitted...but we have too much pride and arrogance to ever admit it...which keeps us from submitting to our Creator.

And if we won't submit to our Creator and Fear the Lord....we will never have any wisdom....and with out any wisdom the problems of the earth will multiply....and ultimately the whole thing will tip over.

I wonder if it will tip over in 2012?

More Evidence

It seems that almost every month there is new evidence surfacing that proves that the Bible is true...and that the Jews are in fact exactly who they say they are and that they lived in the Holy Land exactly as the Bible promises.

This is in spite of what all the Muslims are saying...who deny that the Jews ever had a temple in Jerusalem and that the Jews are simply squatting on Arab land.

Today we have more evidence emerging.

Second Temple Seal Found in Jerusalem Excavation

Israeli archaeologists have announced the discovery of a rare clay seal – likely used to certify the purity of ritual objects used in the Second Temple – at an excavation site under the Old City of Jerusalem.The coin-sized seal, measuring about two centimeters in diameter, bears two Aramaic words meaning “pure for God.”

It is the first “direct archaeological evidence of activity on the Temple Mount and the workings of the Temple during the Second Temple period,” according to the Israel Antiquities Authority.

The rare seal was unearthed at the City of David excavation site just outside the Temple Mount compound. Last month, archaeologists found four bronze coins stamped around 17 A.D. by the Roman official Valerius Gratus during an excavation at the site.

Here;  http://thelandofisrael.com/blog/second-temple-seal-found-in-jerusalem-excavation/

I almost get the idea that God, in His infinite mercy, is saying, "Even though I have given you plenty of evidence to believe, I will continue giving you even more right up until the time I send my Son to collect his bride.  That way NO MAN will have an excuse on judgment day."

Culture Crisis

Of course one of the categories we have been watching is the collapse of the U.S. culture.  Our forefathers warned us 200 years ago that when the majority of voters discover they can vote themselves healthy benefits from the public treasury....they will proceed to vote the whole country right into bankruptcy.

The whole nation has been talking about the health care crisis ever since Obama was elected and pushed through free health insurance in an attempt to "fix" the hopelessly broken system. 

I received this email that probably some of you also have recieved which is supposedly written by a doctor who works in the emergency room of his local hospital.  Whether it's written by an actual doctor really doesn't matter because as you read it you will understand that our health care crisis is really a culture crisis....and we all know that we are currently on an unsustainable path.

Dear Mr. President:
During my shift in the Emergency Room last night, I had the pleasure of evaluating a patient whose smile revealed an expensive shiny gold tooth, whose body was adorned with a wide assortment of elaborate and costly tattoos, who wore a very expensive brand of tennis shoes and who chatted on a new cellular telephone equipped with a popular R&B ring tone.
While glancing over her patient chart, I happened to notice that her payer status was listed as "Medicaid"!
During my examination of her, the patient informed me that she smokes more than one costly pack of cigarettes every day and somehow still has money to buy pretzels and beer.

And, you and our Congress expect me to pay for this woman's health care? I contend that our nation's "health care crisis" is not the result of a shortage of quality hospitals, doctors or nurses.
Rather, it is the result of a "crisis of culture", a culture in which it is perfectly acceptable to spend money on luxuries and vices while refusing to take care of one's self or, heaven forbid, purchase health insurance. It is a culture based on the irresponsible credo that "I can do whatever I want to because someone else will always take care of me."

Once you fix this "culture crisis" that rewards irresponsibility and dependency, you'll be amazed at how quickly our nation's health care difficulties will disappear.

If You Can't Beat Them....Join Them!

Here's a great article for the, "We Must Be Idiots!" file.

Since the Muslim Brotherhood seems to be taking over Egypt...and their number one goal is the destruction of Israel and America....let's send TEAM OBAMA over there to see if we can make friends!!!

US seeks closer ties with Islamists in historic shift in Egypt policy       

CAIRO — With the Muslim Brotherhood pulling within reach of an outright majority in Egypt’s new Parliament, the Obama administration has begun to reverse decades of mistrust and hostility as it seeks to forge closer ties with an organization once viewed as irreconcilably opposed to United States interests.  

The administration’s overtures — including high-level meetings in recent weeks — constitute a historic shift in a foreign policy held by successive American administrations that steadfastly supported the autocratic government of President Hosni Mubarak in part out of concern for the Brotherhood’s Islamist ideology and historic ties to militants.

The shift is, on one level, an acknowledgment of the new political reality here, and indeed around the region, as Islamist groups come to power. 

Here;  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45867719/ns/world_news-the_new_york_times/

Holy waffle!!  What kind of message does this send to Islamist freaks all over the world?!?!  The Satanic horde is gathering to destroy God's Holy people....and us....and all we can think to do is set up meetings to drink tea and smoke the peace pipe?!

Really? 

History should show us that appeasing radicals ONLY serves to empower them.....but maybe this time things will be different??  Really??

The definition of insanity;  doing the same thing over and over and each time expecting a different result.

Dreaming of a One-World Currency

The debt bomb financial situation of the world continues to grow.  Bible readers know that ultimately the current system of numerous currencies will ultimately fail and will be replaced by a global financial system that the Antichrist will take control of...and require the "mark of the beast" in order to access it.

So we continue to watch for movement towards that inevitability.  Today we have this;

Dream of Universal Currency Just Won’t Die

The euro zone maelstrom refuses to end. Thanks to the debt crisis, some Greek officials are contemplating dumping the common currency for the drachma. Meanwhile, Italy and Spain teeter. A decade after the shared currency was heralded as a 21st-century tool for peace and prosperity, it turns out that currency unions aren’t such a hot idea.

Not so fast, though. This is undeniably a period of epic turmoil, and many economists will tell you that sovereign states need sovereign currencies—full stop. But this notion ignores a fundamental truth: Countries with their own currency may have monetary independence, but in reality—as gun battles in Libya, CDOs in the US, and tsunamis in Japan have taught us—we are only becoming more economically intertwined, regardless of what our coins look like.

Step back from the current crisis to consider the long view, and currency unions—or even a single global currency—have a fair share of appeal. A universal medium of exchange could eliminate currency risk and jack up trade. It would mean speculators couldn’t short an individual country’s currency. Exporters wouldn’t have to fret over the gap between a price on a contract and the value of the payment. A single currency could halt spastic swings in prices and end conversion fees, leaving more of the pie for little stuff like R&D and employee health insurance. Oh—and it could put an end to international disputes over currency manipulation. Hello? China?

The fact is, the modern economy and monetary system are too damn precarious for us not to examine every possible way to protect against future shocks—including going all in on a universal currency. It’s a bit like geoengineering: radical and outrageous at first blush but, given humanity’s current predicament, not as outrageous as dismissing it out of hand.

Here; http://www.wired.com/magazine/2011/12/st_essay_globalcurrency/

So you see, when the global currency is proposed it won't be something that people will be dragged into kicking and screaming.  It will be something that people will be ASKING FOR...because they want to avoid the shocks to the financial system that we have all been experiencing over these past 4 years.

People won't be FORCED to take the Mark of the Beast....they will be asking for it because they will all want to be part of the latest and greatest plan to save the economies of planet earth.

As many have already said...when the rapture of the church happens and the massive financial shock of their absence kicks in....someone really smart will come up with the plan for a single currency....and articles like those referenced above are preconditioning people to expect it.

Thankfully we won't be here during this coming incredible time of deception.

Tri-Faith Project Being Built in Omaha

So what do you get when you cross some Episcopalians, some liberal Jews and some Muslims? 

Answer;  a Tri-Faith Project campus being built in Omaha Nebraska whose vision is: "Our vision is to build bridges of respect, acceptance and trust, to challenge stereotypes, to learn from each other and to counter the influence of fear and misunderstanding," the project posted on its website as its mission statement.

Yes!!  And of course their theme song will be Kum-ba-yah...where the word "Lord" can mean anything you want it to mean!!

OMAHA, NE — The similarities between the three Abrahamic faiths of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are well known to those who study each religion, but many people practicing these faiths are not quite as aware.

A new project that its creators call the first development of its kind in the world hopes to shed light on those similarities with the building of the new Tri-Faith Project, a large privately-funded development in Omaha on a former country club and golf course that spans 35 acres and will comprise three sites: Temple Israel, the Episcopal Diocese of Nebraska (including a church) and the American Institute of Islamic Studies and Culture (which includes a mosque), as well as the large central Tri-Faith Center connecting the three religious centers for common events and meetings.

 

The main building will use a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) structure and will house an auditorium and briefing room for conferences, lectures, symposiums and film screenings, coffee shops and gathering spaces, kitchen and dining facilities, space for traveling exhibits and more. Included on the site will be educational and social facilities to be used by all of the religious groups sharing the campus.

 

Here;  http://www.arabamericannews.com/news/index.php?mod=article&cat=Community&article=5102

 

Holy One-World-Religion!!  Did you catch all that crap about using an Energy and Environmental Design so that, of course, the whole thing can be a "green" project??  Did you catch the drivel about the "similarities" between the 3 Abrahamic faiths??  Give me a flippin' break!!!  The Koran says right in it that the Jews and infidels should be killed so the whole world can submit to Islam.  How do "tolerate" that? 

 

I have an idea that soon they will open their doors to others like the Hindus, Buddhists, Mother Earthers, etc....because they will also find "similarities" with those folks probably claiming that, "They all have a deep yearning for peace."

 

I'm sure Satan is clapping his hands together with joy over this project....a whole boat load of people doing NOTHING to gather themselves closer to Christ and the Truth He came to bring.

 

"Wide is the road that leads to destruction and many will be on it."

All Religion is True

This tiny article caught my eye this morning and falls into the "sign of the times" category.

A major pop star named Cee Lo Green, sang John Lennon's famous song, "Imagine".  In that song there is a verse that talks about a time on earth when there would be no wars and also "no religion too."  Cee Lo made a big mistake and changed the words...which made lots of Lennon fans upset...as he changed that passage to "and all religion is true."

Cee Lo Green upset John Lennon fans on Saturday night by performing a soulful version of the songwriter's classic "Imagine" with the lyrics changed from "nothing to kill or die for / and no religion too" to "nothing to kill or die for / and all religion's true." According to some fans, Green changed the meaning of the song by switching out the line. "The whole point of that lyric is that religion causes harm," tweeted someone with the handle @geekysteven. "If 'all religion's true' it would be a pretty bleak place.

How lost people are....believing that it is religion that causes all the harm on the world.  Don't they understand that atheists like Stalin and Pol Pot have been responsible for the deaths of million??  Of course they don't.


Now that being said, it is the exclusivity of Christ's words, "I came to bring Truth," that so offends the Lennon followers and even Cee Lo Green.


Green, who sang the song on NBC's New Year's Eve broadcast from Times Square, responded to criticism about the alteration by tweeting "Yo I meant no disrespect by changing the lyric guys! I was trying to say a world were u could believe what u wanted that's all."


Yes of course....wouldn't it be NICE, Cee Lo, if you could believe whatever you wanted and it would ALL BE TRUE!!!....and EVERYONE GOES TO HEAVEN....and HELL DOESN'T EXIST!!!  Wouldn't that be FUN?!?!
