Is This What Your God Does to His Children?


Jill Carroll makes a plea for her life.........

We live in a world where the true depravity, and wickedness of man lies prostrate in a courtroom for all to see. The accused (abused) offers her defense of innocence to a world that no longer acknowledges the truth. Right now she bears the weight of lies, hatred, fear, and ignorance brought about by a doctrine of evil. Do everything that you can to insure that you the jury defend what is worth defending. Do not fuel the monolithic mechanism of destruction that is being used to savagely eat at our hearts. Do not feed the monster that seeks to tear apart the very thing that binds us all. Do not offer even an inkling of rationale to their cause.

It is sickening to think that her captors find it respectful to clothe her to their own standards, and yet they threaten to let her blood flow as a final judgment for what she represents.

Next up in the Muslim world..... retaliation by Muslims in the Middle East for sanctions imposed on Iran. This will take place in the same courtroom. Our reaction to Iran's stance on Isreal, and it's nuclear ambitions will insight the rage of millions of Muslims across the world. The Western world will be declared the evil villain for exercising restraint, while Muslim males turn their humiliation and failure into hatred.

Our air strike that killed Al Qaeda members in Pakistan was received by the Muslim world with the same righteous injustice that we should learn to accept from a people who are content with protecting people and causes that only drive them deeper into the abyss where they choose to exist.

However bleak the outlook is we must never let ourselves be plagued by weapons being used against us. Do not hate, but also do not ignore the truth.

1 Corinthians 13 (words of wisdom)

1If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

2If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

3And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
