Interests: People, discovering the Truth in things, and by that I refer to the fact that God (Jesus) is Ruler of the Universe, so He has a lot to do with everything.

Expertise: Updates on world events, socking the truth to both those who want to and who don't want to hear it, changing the world through a worldwide network of truth, exposing the lies told by those who have been deceiving the public, harnessing the imagination (heh heh)

Alright, I've been working on getting things up and running at least in the blog. I had to put the radio show on temporary hold because of so much going on this semester. Rest assured it will be in the works next semester.

Well folks, thank ya fer steppin' by to read me blog! No Sincerely, I do thank you!

Alright, so  I was checking my email the other day, and I saw something rather peculiar. My brother had sent me an email with the heading " This is Crazy!!" Now I didnt quite know what to expect, but I thought, " Heck, what could be so crazy?" So I clicked that bad boy and low and behold the following story splashes onto my screen, and as I read, a bewildered/amused grin spread across my face:

                                            MISSIONS
    Teen seeks missions assignment where women don't wear clothes

   
INDIANAPOLIS — Billy Pratt, 17, of Shafter Community Church is seeking a short-term missions trip to any locale where women hang around naked.
    "There are definitely places in the world where people just don't wear clothes," he says, perched on his bed at his parents' house. Pratt hasn't told his pastor about his criterion, but he has researched locations extensively on the internet. He adds that if teen boys could work in a place where they were surrounded by "tons and tons of boobs" the ranks of missionaries would swell.
    "I don't know why they don't publish this stuff," he says.
    For his part, Pratt hopes his church will send him on an exploratory trip to remote Brazil and perhaps the French Riviera — "wherever unclothed people need to hear the gospel," he says. He is collecting Bibles to give away, and bought two dozen memory cards for his digital camera. He expects to garner financial support from boys his age who, in exchange for their donation, would receive the password to Pratt's web site which will include video updates and a slide show of his work there.
    He feels called to return to these locations three or four times a year, and he hopes his church sees the urgency of sending him.
    "I have a meeting with the pastor next week," he says. "We'll see how it goes."
                                        MY RESPONSE
Now, er....I don't know about you, but there's something that doesn't quite cut the cake with this um..."interesting" story. Oh sure, the "strapping" young teen with raging harmones (understatement of the century) would like to go to the mission field, ie.. the beautiful French Rivera! Oooh! But wait a sec, to see naked natives walking around? Talk about missing the freaking point!! Argh, it's a sad day when little snot-nosed boys like Billy Boy here actually feel justified in their "spiritually" enlightening pursuits. Boy, isn't he Mr. Obvious when he states 
"There are definitely places in the world where people just don't wear clothes." Well no duh you scroney little pervert! And I bet they don't wear shoes either! Imagine that! Let me break this down into simple terms. I would seriously hope missionaries didn't go to those oh so remote parts of the world so that they can see some native cleavage! I mean come on now! Next, people are going to be asking if they can be sent half way around the world to find a mate so they can "preach" the Gospel! The only Gospel they would be preaching is how much they could use a wife! Our reason for going into the world is to PREACH the Gospel! Not to buy 50 million memory cards for our digicam so we can show all of our prepubescent friends that we snapped some killer shots of some naked natives. Needless to say, this kid is way off point, and I doubt very highly that God is smiling down from Heaven at such a good "deed" he is doing. Word of advice Billy boy, find something more constructive to do with your time and get a life. The kingdom won't be furthured as a result of anything your spiritually weak mind can concoct! I tell ya, reading stories like this makes me wonder if the great falling away has already begun... What a sick day in age we live in.

Any input from you out there? Do you find this article interesting? Send away!
