The chemical factory that is the body requires a precise equilibrium of 16 basic chemicals, and correct acid-alkaline balance plays a vital role this process. Foods, after digestion and absorption, leave either an acid or alkaline ash in the body depending on their composition. Normal body chemistry should be approximately 20 per cent acid and 80 per cent alkaline, thus the food intake should reflect this balance.
It is hard to imagine anyone being opposed to Genealogy, but a careful look at the matter shows otherwise. And it is not the standard objections either. It is fair to say that genealogy can take up too much of a person’s time, or that after a few generations “your people” are not much more related to you than the general population, and therefore way too much emphasis is placed upon these biologically distant relatives.These are common and understandable caveats that anyone might have. No, these few things do not explain the cold attitude a lot of people have toward the subject of genealogy, a coldness that is growing greater in these modern times. The source of this unease is to be found in a fundamental, and growing tendency in our society of each person “going their own way” with less and less concern about family, present or distant.

The way to achieve in any area, in any way, and the best way to serve both God and Country is to be oriented toward helping others, albeit deserving others. It is one of the hardest lessons both young and old fail to learn. (more…)
Saw your picture on a poster in a cafe out in Phoenix
Guess you’re still the sweetheart of the rodeo
As for me and little Casey, we still make the circuit
In a one horse trailer and a mobile home
And she still asks about you all the time
And I guess we never even cross your mind
But, oh sometimes I think about you
And the way you used to ride out
In your rhinestones and your sequins
With the sunlight on your hair
An, oh the crowd will always love you
But as for me, I’ve come to know
Everything that glitters is not gold
Well, Old Red, he’s getting older and last Saturday he stumbled
But you know I just can’t bear to let him go
Little Casey, she’s still growing and she’s started asking questions
And there’s certain things a man just doesn’t know
Everybody said you’d make it big someday
And I guess that we were only in your way
But someday I’m sure you’re gonna know the cost
‘Cause for everything you win, there’s somethin’ lost
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye the pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye…and YES science now shows that carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
The time honored argument between those who believe and those who do not has never been settled, and never will be until, that is, the end of time. But inasmuch as it is a battle in going full force, and the shifting tides of that battle do matter enormously in a practical sense, the issue must be joined by those who believe as long as there is one soldier on each side remaining standing.
This issue is fraught with great consequences of every sort, and is a good measure for how the battle between good and evil is going at any particular time. The side I take, with no reservations, is the side of God, not god, or a god, but God himself. (more…)
Evolution was invented by those who hate and disrespect churches, synagogues and temples, and their varied self-serving creeds and religious practices. It is not that educated people hate the idea of a supreme power of some sort that created and oversees the universe, nor do they even disagree all that much with the great holy books of civilization, it is just that they can’t stand the priests, imams, rabbis and whatnots complete with their practices, abuses and pronouncements.
In short, the “war” between God and Evolution is a war between the intelligentsia and scientists on the one hand, and the religious establishment on the other. This religious establishment is considered by educated people to be parasites on the body of society, and to be evil doers in general, who aught to be jailed or otherwise done away with as an affront to God, and a public enemy to mankind. An awful lot of believers share this view of the various religious organizations.
What is needed is better religions, not the end of religion. Religions are practically communistic in their hostility to competition and capitalism. They all want a monopoly over their enslaved and chained sheep, enforced if possible by the guns and power of the state. What is needed in religion is more competition not the end of religion.
While there may be some little truth in some of these assertions, I find them as a whole, tasteless, smug, insulting, reductive, false, distorted, hateful and meanly bigoted.
Clearly they must have been written by some sort of Democrat or Liberal, the type that typically despises
America, Americans, plus our language and heritage, including Christianity. Here they are in Italics followed by my comments. Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and still smelled pretty good by June. However, they were starting to smell, so brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married.
This is clearly a generalization, and a fabricated fiction. Like all the gratuitous passages quoted here, it reeks of the spirit of bias and contempt.(more…)
Historically grain was developed only rather recently, in the last 5000 years or so, as a cheap and plentiful supply of food for the slaves, both two footed and four footed that ancient empires needed to build things like pyramids and civilization generally.
As a result, too much grain may not be a very healthful food for those humans of us who care about our health. We have to be watchful about the consumption of grains, and meat that has been fattened on grains. It doesn’t mean we shouldn’t ever eat grains, but that we should realize that they are not the perfect food invented by Nature, or Nature’s God.
You can’t find very much grain in the wild, and if we are to believe scientists, humans have been around on this earth for a long time. Some say for 6 million years or so. In any case, vegetables, legumes, fruits, and dairy and meat that is fed on grasses instead of grains, are a lot better for us than a diet of too much grain and grain fed meat and dairy. Such a grain reduced diet much more conforms to the diet that humans have eaten for far longer than these slave civilizations have been around.
If any single thing typifies the history of civilization, it is slavery. Today we have millions of “wage slaves” who are as much slaves as the ancients chained to their galleys and plows. The difference is cosmetic only.
I feel presumptuous talking to people who have lost so much, but in truth I must put the truth, as God gives me the light to see that truth, down on paper in black and white, and hope God uses it for good.
Where do I start? Well, let’s start where a typical parent loses a child in our society in these times. I follow and read these stories all the time and I pray for guidance as to how I should react to them.
The answer God gives me, shocks me, and mostly I don’t do it. For it is to tell the truth, regardless of how painful it is. Because when we face facts and tell the truth, it may not help us much at the moment, but dealing with it is the only way we can help people in the long to more effectively deal with bad things.
Examples: Someone has an only son killed serving his country in Iraq, or another has an only daughter murdered, or another has a small child die from some disease or other, or another loses a wife or husband of long years, and so it goes, over and over and over.
There is a similarity in all these situations, a reality of terrible loss, regrets, and blaming. One might almost be tempted to say all these cases are very alike even though they are all different, and happen to different people.
Here is how I see these tragedies: I see them as object lessons, as all life and death must be, and I see them as opportunities to do good for our fellow man and woman, and they are opportunities to reflect on the causes and possible cures for these situations, cures that might prevent others from suffering the same degree of irreparable loss.
But when we get into the matter, we see that there is plenty of blame to share around regarding the death of the loved one. Perhaps this sublimated sense of guilt is what makes people so incredibly touchy about these happenings.
Here it is in broad clear bold strokes. Hold on to your hat, this will be a bumpy ride.
First thought that comes to mind is what were these parents thinking about when they DECIDED to have only one son or daughter? Did it not occur to them that life gives and life takes away, and that something could happen to that one child and then how would they feel when they were perfectly able to have a lot more children.
Why should we grieve for a parent who losses a child when they could have had 10 children and did not? Of course we love and value every child even it we have 20, but still it makes a difference to lose one, when you have 10 and lose one when you only have one, so that might be the first, and perhaps most important, lesson we need to learn from all this tragedy.
Just how guilty is a parent who pre-meditatedly birth controls most of his, and/or her, children, and then bemoans the fact that their one child is taken from them. Is this not a form of poetic justice, or consequence of sin? So, should they not be condemned rather than sympathized with?
Another aspect of this is the thought that by complaining loudly about their loss, are they not taking God’s name in vain, by, in effect, blaming God for their misfortune, even if only indirectly. Should not any kind of a religious person put this down to God’s will, designed perhaps to teach us a lesson that we will not learn any other way?
And does this grieving not deny the living our attention and help? Life is for the living, not the dead. Should we not spend our time teaching others how to avoid this, and what we need to do as a society to prepare and protect on this issue?
Do we not owe it to our deceased one, to work for a better world that has less pointless death? By that I mean to focus having life and life more abundantly according to the Bible. The solution to losing a child is to have a dozen more, not to pointlessly grieve the loss of one irreplaceable one.
Well, much more could I say on this topic and may do so later, but I just have to get this off my chest if it helps even on person to study to see the right way to live
