Robert asks…
Am I the only one that thinks what Ben Stein said needed to be said?
The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.
My confession:
I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are: Christmas trees.
It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, "Merry Christmas" to me. I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu. If people want a crche, it's just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.
I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can't find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat.
Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship Nick and Jessica and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him? I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where Nick and Jessica came from and where the America we knew went to.
In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.
Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her "How could God let something like this happen?" (regarding Katrina) Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response.
She said, "I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?"
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found recently) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. The Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.
Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said OK.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW."
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.
Are you laughing?
Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it.
Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.
Pass it on if you think it has merit. If not then just discard it... no one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in. My Best Regards.
Honestly and respectfully,
Ben Stein

Ben Stein did NOT write most of this message...see http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_ben_stein_christmas.htm for more information.
I do think that the message contains some valid points...the part Ben Stein actually wrote was interesting and I'm glad he said it. Some of it is inaccurate...but the point is valid. For example, the statements attributed to Mrs. Graham were accurate but she was talking about 9-11 not Katrina. I especially liked how she put the part about us telling God to get out of our lives and then blaming him for not protecting us from harm.
Lizzie asks…
What do you think of this letter?
Ben Stein (T.V. personality) wrote this.
If they know of him at all, many folks think Ben Stein is just a quirky actor/comedian who talks in a monotone. He's also a very intelligent attorney who knows how to put ideas and words together in such a way as to sway juries and make people think clearly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.
Herewith a few confessions from my beating heart: I have no freaking clue who Nick and Jessica are. I see them on the cover of People and Us constantly when I am buying my dog biscuits and kitty litter. I often ask the checkers at the grocery stores. They never know who Nick and Jessica are either. Who are they? Will it change my life if I know who they are and why they have broken up? Why are they so important?
I don't know who Lindsay Lohan is either, and I do not care at all about Tom Cruise's wife.
Am I going to be called before a Senate committee and asked if I am a subversive? Maybe, but I just have no clue who Nick and Jessica are.
If this is what it means to be no longer young. It's not so bad.
Next confession:

He is right on target. No problem with it what so ever. We ought to give more sober thought to things he reminded us of. However, he didn't go far enough. I like his attitude. Straight forward.
We kicked God of the schools in favor of school shootings.
We kicked God out of the courtroom and we have more laws and less justice, more crime and more penalties but less serving what they should for. We have corrupt judges, lawyers, yes they are good lawyers and good judges, but thanks to the media we don't hear about them.
We kicked God out of the homes and we have over 60 years of increasing divorce rate, preteen pregnancy, single parent families, two dads, two moms, three here none there, child abuse, sex abuse, adult abuse.
We kicked God out of the Senate, and we have more politicians who are concerned for their constituents than they are for the offices they hold, we have a house of representatives that represents only their own agendas and not the people, we have a governent that is so bipartisan and so childish and immature if I didn't know it should be a nursery, with alot of diaper changing and bottle feeding going.
We kicked God out of our lives and say hey its a private thing don't speak in his name, or offend those who have differing opions on who this God is.
We kicked God of the churches and God said enough is enough - and until we let God back into our lives, churches, homes, work places, schools, senate, house, government we are deserving everything that we are getting and it hasn't even begin to get nasty as it can!
So lets decide for God and have peace or against God and have no peace
Carol asks…
Will this good Samaritan be charged for violating the illegal aliens civil rights Illegal Alien Arrested?
Illegal Alien Arrested After Striking Victims, Flinging 2 Of Them Off His Hood, Then Taking Off Good Samaritan Tracks Driver Down, Detains Him Until Police Arrive
They were clinging to the top of the hood, screaming for their lives, and police say they were treated like debris. Stunning revelations surfaced Thursday about the driver in the hit-and-run crash that seriously injured four high school students who were heading to the mall.
"Thank God they're alive." That's the first thing Anthony Centamore said when he saw his daughter Stefanie in the hospital on Wednesday night, not yet aware of how she got there.
"When I walked in she had a neck brace on, and blood all over her. Scratches, scrapes on her face," he told CBS 2.
Then came the story of how Stefanie and her three friends were crossing the street and were blindsided by a car, whose driver never bothered to stop even as two victims were laying in the street, and two more, including his own daughter, were on the hood of the car, screaming for their lives.
"What does that say about him? Basically, you can classify him as a low life," Centamore said of the driver, identified as 26-year-old Elias Garcia of Hempstead.
Police said what Garcia did was barbaric, especially in how he successfully got rid of the screaming girls.
"He stops to get them off his car as you would some debris or a pile of snow off the hood of your car," said Nassau County Police Det. Lt. Ray Cote.
"They're screaming, they're bleeding as they're holding on for their lives," said Cote.
Authorities say the day laborer jerked his car to a stop, forcing the two victims to fall off so he could make his getaway. As Garcia took off, leaving the four victims in the street, good Samaritan Steve Loverde sprang into action, determined not to let the driver get away.
"I jumped into my car and made a U-turn and chased him down and he must have been going about 90 miles an hour," Loverde told CBS 2. "I pulled him out of the car and I took his keys away and I just threw them on the grass and made the 911 call."
Loverde stopped Garcia and detained him until police arrived. It turned out Garcia is an illegal alien from Guatemala who doesn't even have a license to drive, which explains why he took off, to a point.
"Regardless of illegal alien or no last name, being a human being and a good person, you stop the car," said Centamore.
As for Centamore's daughter, she's being treated at Winthrop University Hospital and is in good spirits as are all her friends, secure in the knowledge that the man who hit them didn't get away with it thanks to a good Samaritan.
"I can't say enough prayers for that gentleman. It's a great thing that he did," said Centamore.
Loverde hopes to meet the girls at the hospital and tell them someone was watching over them and not everyone gets a second chance at life.
Garcia was charged with reckless endangerment, driving without a license, and leaving the scene. Because he's an illegal immigrant, he could be deported.

Loverde told CBS 2. “I pulled him out of the car and I took his keys away and I just threw them on the grass and made the 911 call.””
I wonder if this good man has any idea what he’s in store for.
In this country, we can’t make a citizen’s arrest against an illegal alien
Because he's an illegal immigrant, he could be deported.
Or they could just write him some tickets and tell him to show up in court...of course he won't show up. Catch and release
admin answers:
WH reports 4 high school students tried to detain Mr. Garcia a visitor to our country, and fleeing for his life, he was later stopped and forced out of his vehicle, thrown to the ground, causing multiple injuries, by a local citizen who stole his keys in the assault. Mr. Garcia says he believes he was a victim of racial profiling and believes his attackers should be punished to the full extent of the law for violating his civil rights.

You can just discard this - what you have just read... But, if you do this don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.
Lyceumlogic you bring up an interesting point; That Religion should not be taught in schools - quote "and yes god does not belong in schools" "in the Science class, for a Science it is not".
I too don't believe in it being taught in the Science Class, just as there should be no evolution taught there either. For both these are what a person believes.
In all our lives, left to our own devices we would find God or satan, as primitive people always have. (along with those we read in the Bible)
NEVER an evolution Theory, that is just a forced taught lie of the enemy for whoever will succmb to him. He does go round like a roaring lion seeing WHO he MAY devour!
Interesting you say: "besides, the god of the people does not give a phuck about his children. (if there was a god) the suffering of one little child is enough to say god's plan is a failure."
Gods plans Never fail.
In fact He has one for you.
And that is a plan not to hurt you or to harm you but to give you a future and a ho
And that is a plan not to hurt you or to harm you but to give you a future and a hope.
He Loves you Lyceumlogic, and only wants good for you. Just like a mother does, as that is the mother-heart of God.
Thank you for you comments.
Lyceumlogic, I just read the last part of what you wrote and God actually does the opposite to that.
Remember Jesus Clearly says, and even if you have never read a Bible before, most people are familiar to this Scripture, "Suffer not the little children to come unto me." and here's another I have to add.
Mat 18:10 "Beware that you don't despise a single one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always in the presence of my heavenly Father.
Gidday Ernest!!!
Thanks for your answer*
((((Joyfilled))), if only people really knew you, I haven't seen your outside but if hearts could, yours would be large enough to share with a few more people, regardless of what they believe, as we know it is what's in your heart that matters most.
Someone can attend Church every Sunday, and in a small society and are looked upon with much favour as a good Citizon and 'Christian', yet we know from experience, what our eyes have seen, that isn't always the case. It can often be a front.
I just love my special Sisters and Bro's
I would actually like to give the credit to a beautiful atheist friend of mine.
The person I won't name for their privacy reasons put it up on their Blog?
With a cute joke beginning it.
What this beautiful person said to me today, I will treasure forever.
