Ted Nugent - Gun Control

Ok I don't know anything about Ted Nugent so I am not endorsing anything else about him.

But I did find these remarks rather amusing.

Random- Churchill, Jane Austen

A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.
~Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice

Drawing on my fine command of language, I said nothing.
~Unknown

Believe nothing against another but on good authority; and never report what may hurt another, unless it be a greater hurt to some other to conceal it.
~William Penn (1644 - 1718)

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.
~Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

Here's something to think about: How come you never see a headline like 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?

Jonathan Edwards - Gods Goodness

If it were not right that God should decree and permit and punish sin, there could be no manifestation of God’s justice in hatred of sin or in punishing it, . . . or in showing any preference, in his providence, of godliness before it. There would be no manifestation of God’s grace or true goodness, if there was no sin to be pardoned, no misery to be saved from. No matter how much happiness he might bestow, his goodness would not be nearly as highly prized and admired. . . . and the sense of his goodness heightened.
