Tags: Prayer List
Prayers for all. Goddess, did you ever hear back from the people who were supposed to put the prayer list in the Wailing Wall (am I remembering that right?). I thought that would be very cool, and was just wondering if it had been done. Thanx
{goddessoftheclassroom}
Thank you for continuing this.
@ Iron Fist:
Yes, I did! The next day, as a matter of fact, I received a very nice email.

BTW, proof positive that the Lefties are stupid: if they are hell-bent on throwing Israel under the bus, as they clearly are, they would be smart to be in favor of our being all the more involved in building a democratic Arab state in Iraq, in order to ensure that the US has a reliable ally.
Now, I don’t think that a strong democratic Iraq is likely, but nonetheless, wouldn’t you think that they’d be interested in increasing our strength and presence in Iraq rather than wanting us to get the hell out as soon as possible? Yet that is not the case.
You know, I have no sympathy here:
No mention of the religion of the illegal immigrants from North Africa, so it is hard to judge whether this is comperable to the “youtes” in Frogistan. But you have to live people who enter a country illegally, take up residence, and then proclaim that people who don’t want them there are “racists”. Sound familiar? Shit, if it is so bad then go home. Nobody forced you to illegally immigrate at gunpoint.
Frankly, Mohammedans are racist, anti-Christian bigots, but you don’t see me illegally immigrating to Mecca to protest their bigotry, do you? Oh, yeah, that is because they would kill me for doing that. Sorry folks, but a couple of dudes got shot with air rifles. That wasn’t nice, but it was a damn sure less painful than sawing off their heads with a dull knife. the Mohammedans have no right to come into the West and protest “bigotry” and “racism”. Not as long as they use extreme violence to keep their mohammedan lands, including Mecca, Kafir-rein.
It is nice to see the prayer list every Sunday, thank you for doing that Goddess. I’m sure that it is a lot of work to keep it up to date.
Congressman Deal wants to see Obama’s birth certificate…

@ tunnelrat:
You’re so kind! Honestly, it’s a privilege and service I’m pleased to do for all my internet friends here.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
Lefties don’t like democratic anywhere – Israel, Iraq, USA … On the other hand, there’s never been a tyranny they don’t like, or at least make excuses for.
Baltimore 24, Patriots zilch with 1:22 to go in the first quarter.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
Why would they want a democratic ally in the Middle East?
Dictatorships are a lot easier to work with.
I’m serious.

May I add my thanks, too, Goddess? And BTW, you’ve probably heard this before, but your avatar is wonderful — and so appropriate.
Anyone watching the playoffs?
Let’s just say that Tom Brady is having a B+ first quarter and Bill Belichick says the system worked.

Yeah, baby! Why do we have to go to a Canadian paper to see this kind of editorial? Are all the editors of all the papers in all of America balless eunuchs who don’t have the testicular fortituted to call the Golden One the Golden Calf (False god) that he is? It would seem so.
@ Iron Fist:
I have no sympathy either. I’m fresh out of sympathy. Sympathy or something like it got Europe into this mess in the first place. It is stories like this that give me hope that Europe won’t just roll over and die when the inevitable clash with the muzz does occur. The push back needs to start now. Actually it will stave off severe repercussions in the long run if Europeans stand up now and don’t wait until they go vengeance seeking mad.

True: Carter said as much not so long ago, and there’s no reason why Carter II should think any differently.
BTW, there was a program on PBS about the different presidents back in 2009, before TV switched over to digital and I gave up on it, which detailed the Carter campaign. I swear to you, I thought I was watching the Obama campaign in whiteface; the same inexperience touted as a virtue.
{Goddess} prayers for my husband and brother please. G-d knows what is needed. Thanks.
@ chickadee:
Yeah, this can’t end well for the minorities that push this way. One of the hallmarks of the original Civil Rights movement was its peaceful nature. Seggregation was morally repugnant, and the Civil Rights movement shined the light on its moral turpitude. People of good moral fiber rejected it everywhere, and it went the way of the dodo. The other hallmark was that they did not overreach. Displays of the OCnfederate flag are not the same as seggregated lunch counters. Expecting the United States Government to conduct its business in English is not the same as forbiding slaves to learn to read.
There were limits to such analogies, and the original Civil Rights leaders understood this. As such, they won possibly the greatest bloodless victory in history.
Contrast this to the imperialist colonial minorities in Europe. Colonial minorities historically have a difficult time of it, even when they have the whip hand in terms of technology and infrastructure. The Brits learned that both in America and India. I don’t think you can accurately say that they Europeans mastered Africa, either. They ruled from fortified enclaves, but only for a time.
The colonizers of Europe may find the same difficulties. That lies with the people of Europe more than it does the particular institutions of government that they currently have. If nothing else, the last two hundred and fifty years have shown how temperary and impermanent the institutions of government are. Power really does lie in the people, if they have the will to act.
@ vagabond trader:
You have my prayers, my friend. Right now.
{vagabond trader}
@ Iron Fist:
The contrast the author makes between Obama and Clinton is insightful.
Obama has not only been crippled by what he doesn’t know about the American people, but also by what he ‘knows’ that ain’t so, as Reagan would put it. He truly believes the leftist Narrative that dismisses all opponents as knuckle-dragging racists or greedy capitalists, as evil non-persons.
Clinton, for all his faults, aspired to be the president of an existing country. Obama aspires to be leader of the Movement to make a new country.
@ Iron Fist:
I’m pretty sure that this is done out of racism and out of inhumanity. Most of the African asylants and immigrants there are hard working people, working in the orange groves 15 hours a day for Euro 1,66/hour. They are forced to live in abondoned factories without water, electricity and toilets. They are treated like slaves in an EU-country in the 21.st century. It’s a shame.
@ Iron Fist:
Thanks and back at ya! {IF}

@ Guggi:
I obviously don’t have first hand knowledge of the situation, so I’ll have to defer to your experience. But I do question then why they come to Europe in the first place. Surely it is better to be a free man in Africa than a slave in Europe. It is possible (probable) that my opinion is colored by two things (neither of which have to do anything with anyone’s skin color): the massive immigration disaster in France and the near-riots we had a few years ago where you had illegal Mexican immigrants protesting for more illegal immigration in American streets waiving the Mexican flag as conquerors. If things are different in Italy, then they are different in Italy. Thanks for setting me straight.

@ Iron Fist:
This is cynical. Most of those Africans don’t even know the word “freedom” in their homecountries. There is no democracy and there are no civil rights there. What would you do: starve to death or find work elsewhere? They can’t find work inside Africa (and there is a lot migration between African countries and I don’t write about refugees) so they come to Europe. That´s the next continent and Italy and Greece are the most affected countries there.
Migration is not a new aspect in populations. For example the USA and Argentinia were built on migration. In the 19th century there were about 600 migrants per 1 Million population worldwide. Today we have about 230 per 1 Million population.
I understand your problems with Mexicans as well as those of the Italians. But to treat people like the Italians in Calabria did is inadmissible.

Done.
As the ground freezes, it’s becoming increasingly hard for the AGW defenders and climategate deniers to bury their heads in the sand
@ Guggi:
Americans don’t have problems with Mexicans. It is Illegals they have problems with. Please don’t compare Mexicans in the USA to African Muslims in Italy. If The immigrants were Mexicans, The Italians would not be upset becasue they are both Latin Nations. Mexicans are come from the same Civilization as Americans. It’s about legality in America, in Italy it’s a Cultural difference. It’s apple and Oranges.

A couple of weeks ago, I posted our Prayer List and made a donation on our behalf at this site.
@ Rodan:
I thought it was clear that I referred to illegal migrants from Mexico and not all of those illegal immigrants or asylants in Italy are muslims. They are Christians as well as animists.
I wouldn’t bet on it. Remember those “Gipsies” from Romania some years ago? They were Christians, speaking a Latin language and came from the same European culture.
It may be a difference in culture but what kind of culture do the Europeans have that they treat humans in a kind they wouldn’t treat their pets?
@ goddessoftheclassroom:
Ah! I oughta’ve known…..I get their stuff regularly in my e-mail, too…..thank you, {{{goddess}}}…..I asked because I am so steeped in beholding that Wall in my mind’s eye, as I am again going through the Left Behind books….. : )
@ goddessoftheclassroom:
Oh,what a fine thing to do!
Thanks again {Goddess}
@ Guggi:
The Italians shouldn’t have mistreat them. However, they should not let in who they don’t want. Hence that would prevent the problem.
@ goddessoftheclassroom:
We should do that periodically~ I’ll make the contribution next time! How awesome.
@ m:
Great idea, I’d like to do my part also.
Nice pic m!
@ Rodan:
So we agree again
They don’t want to let them in but how to prevent? Italians as well as the Greeks can’t controll every mile of their coast. Facilitators destroy the ships at sea so the Italian coastguard has to save the people and let them in. And of course there is the Mafia which profits from the cheap labour.
Goddess, could you change my request to JTG’s mom and family? I’m so scared his death is tearing them apart… and I’m sure he’s not happy about it.
Also, my husband is completely healed. We’ll be thankful forever but we probably need to make room for some more.
*hopefully!*
