Strange things never cease to happen. These things themselves make the world go round. Consider this: Many years ago, a solar eclipse happened in one primitive part of the earth. You know what it means—day changed to night. And the ignorant villagers, who didn't know what had just happened, thought that the world has come to an end. See farmers racing down to their village huts! Behold mothers frantically searching for their weeping babies in the village playground! Watch birds and domestic animals hastily making to their hiding places! Chaos!! But I am not going to talk of those who committed suicide either by drinking poison or drowning in the village river before the end comes. Neither am I going to say of the village priest who immediately made a sacrifice to appease the gods, who he thought had gone mad. No, I am not going to talk of those. My concern is the richest man in the village who made a feast for the villagers. He had all his livestock slaughtered, tore his yam barns and invited all the villagers for the last supper. But as they were eating under the moonlight, watching the stars and waiting for the world to end, night changed to day. And the surprised villagers turned the last supper to a happy celebration, eating up all the rich man's possessions. The man could not stop them because he had asked them to feast. So he became known as the most foolish man of the year. But that's a different matter. When Gavrillo Princip fired an 'innocent' shot in Sarajevo killing Archduke Ferdinand, never did he know that the events that would follow it would eventually lead to the death of innocence in 1914. Before that first world war began, British then foreign minister, Neil Chamberlain leaned over a window, and said: 'The lights are going out all over Europe. We shall never see it lit again in our life time.' The report did not state that he shook his head. Maybe he did. And it did not say that he dropped a tear. Perhaps, he did. The rest is history now. Millions dead! But man, 'the most wicked of God's creations', according to one source, has refused to learn from history. And soon, he will trigger up events that will lead, not to a third world war, but to the last eclipse. How will that happen? you may ask. Now, look closely to the Middle East and consider this scenario. America defies world opinion, and declares war on an Arab country suspected of having 'weapons of mass destruction' Thousands of Muslims perish. Some Osama rallies the Muslim world, and declares a jihad against the U. S. Then America backed by NATO hits back. Under pressure, the jihadists crack a dirty nuke. And America drops the real one. Lights out! This may sound hypothetical. But remember how the First World War started. Just a lone bullet. In fact, all fratricidal wars have begun by just one shot. So, the bottomline is that wars do not solve problems. Instead, they compound it. We are not here talking of the problem of refugees, or of hunger and the spread of diseases. Neither are we saying of the violence that will follow—something like pieces of peace. Man has forgotten the past; and in the words of George Santayana he is 'condemned to repeat it.' What a pity! Yet, some biologists call him Homo Sapien—man, the wise. Show me your wisdom. So, when you see man, do not call him 'the most wicked of God's creations.' For he does not even know that he cannot run away from the 'last eclipse.' Neither is he going to celebrate it. The earth is a closed place. And NASA does not even have a space ship right now to fly us out of here (suppose there is another home in outer space). Rather, call man 'the most foolish of God`s creations'. Or isn't he?

The super PACs range from the serious to the satirical. The "independent expenditure-only committee" supporting Mitt Romney, for example, has reported raising about $30.2 million, making it the most well funded group of its kind. On the other hand, political satirist Stephen Colbert's super PAC is no spoof. It has raked in more than $1 million - no laughing matter. But most of super PACs are innocuously named and, at first glance, their motivation isn't clear. Who is super PAC Winning Our Future supporting? What about American Crossroads? Who gives to these big super PACs, and how are the millions being spent?

You see, 1938 was a terrible time for Europe. Hitler’s Nazis were running through sovereign nations like a hot knife through butter. England and its European allies were deeply alarmed to say the least, and they hoped to negotiate peace with Hitler without having to go to war against him. Chamberlain, Prime Minister of England, flew to Munich to meet with Hitler. … 2. End Time Clock Ticking Away? By Diane Williams Earlier this month, I heard President George W. Bush and Mahmoud Abbas, the Prime Minister of the Palestinians speaking of another Peace Treaty with Israel. President Bush spoke about the boarder security of the two countries: Israel and Palestine. Abbas of course, spoke of achieving final peace between the two nations. Upon hearing these two heads of state speak, I remembered what the Bible stated in 1st Thessalonians Chapter 5: Verse 3: "When you hear them say peace and safety then sudden… 3. The Economic Giant-- A Closer Look at China By Scott Pearson IT’S NO LONGER NEWS THAT CHINA IS BECOMING A MAJOR player on the world economic scene. Yet, as we’ve noted in past editions, investing in China is fraught with uncertainty, due to a still un-free political situation, and insecure property rights. Despite our current lack of interest in Chinese stocks, China’s renaissance clearly has implications for investor decisions worldwide, simply due to its market’s enormous size.Recently, China’s newfound economic strength has become fodder for politica… Homebased Business 4. Conspiracy Theory; Kill Off the Old Folks By Lance Winslow Recently I met a man in a coffee shop, a conspiracy theorist, which had me cornered and began to get into a way-out conspiracy theory. As I listened to this crazy idea, he complained about all the usual folks. The Skull and Bones, Masonic Faith, Catholic Church, Trilateral Commission, etc., explaining they were all in this together along with the Globalists trying to develop a one-world currency, nation, people, etc. It appears when ever people do not understand something or some group they la… |
