'...Birthing Pains of a New Middle East.'

(1)

I grab it somewhere in the middle and pull. Easy as pie. I just timed myself: 375.622 milliseconds. I'm sure that in a contest I could do much better. Now my fingers smell like raw supermarket salmon.

Pat Robertson is in trouble with the Jews again. Seems he didn't like the recent Israeli truce with Hezbollah. He even quoted Scripture the other day: Isaiah. Apparently Isaiah was in whimsical mood when he wrote something like, 'We writhed in pain, but only farted.' I'll say one thing for Pat: he has a sense of humor. I wonder... are there any other biblical references to farting? By the way, Isaiah was apparently making reference to some sort of 'birth.' Eheh.

And I have discovered John Hagee. Yeeesh. So far I have made it through one sermon. I am amazed that people will actually expose their underage children to this kind of 'religious' filth. Hagee's most recent sermon (last Sunday) had to do with Satan and Evil Spirits. I have part of a previous sermon in which Hagee describes his vision of, 'The End Times.' One segment of it describes 'the EMP Threat' (EMP=ElectroMagnetic Pulse).

EMP is a long-known effect of nuclear explosions which destroys transistors and transistor-like devices. But Hagee, an obvious scientific ignoramus, thinks that it destroys electrons. He suggests that the 'Enemies of Israel' will soon launch a nuclear device from an offshore submarine which will explode about 150 miles above the US mainland and will destroy all US electrons for several months at least.

It amazes me that there are so many so-called 'Christian' preachers on TV who know nothing about Jesus' teachings (being gassed here -RLG), but everything about Jewish teachings. The fact that they know nothing about Science is not surprising.
