Don't Give Up... Don't Even Think Of Giving Up...
Don't Give Up
No - Never Give Up
Either hope or courage
Not When Your Strength Seems
All But Gone...
Not When Your Whole World
Appears To Be Crumbling
All Around You...
Not When The Tears
Won't Stop
Or Won't Come...
No - Never Give Up
Either hope or courage
Not When Your Strength Seems
All But Gone...
Not When Your Whole World
Appears To Be Crumbling
All Around You...
Not When The Tears
Won't Stop
Or Won't Come...
Not When Your Thirst
Knows No Quenching
Nor Your Hunger
Any Assuaging
Not Even When Your Breathing
Becomes Increasingly
More And More Difficult
And Painful
With Every Passing Moment...
Don't Contemplate Giving Up
When They Are All Against You
And None Seems To See The True You
Don't Think Of Giving Up
Not Even When The End Is Said
To Be Near
For You
Don't Buy It -
You Know Better
Don't Give Up
- FIGHT -
Fight Back
Fight With Resolve
Fight With Purpose
Fight With Poise
Fight With Resilience
Fight With Patience
Fight With Sweetness
Fight With Acceptance
Fight With Love
Fight With Silence
Fight With The Truth
Fight With Faith
Fight With Hope
Fight With Grace
Fight With Prayer
Fight With Obedience
Fight With Light
Fight With Luminescence
All Of These Tools
-Not Weapons-
He Will Provide You With
GOD
(Not Groban!)
GOD
Your Heavenly Father
Who Loved You Into Existence
Who Loved You
Since The Dawn Of Time
Knows No Quenching
Nor Your Hunger
Any Assuaging
Not Even When Your Breathing
Becomes Increasingly
More And More Difficult
And Painful
With Every Passing Moment...
Don't Contemplate Giving Up
When They Are All Against You
And None Seems To See The True You
Don't Think Of Giving Up
Not Even When The End Is Said
To Be Near
For You
Don't Buy It -
You Know Better
Don't Give Up
- FIGHT -
Fight Back
Fight With Resolve
Fight With Purpose
Fight With Poise
Fight With Resilience
Fight With Patience
Fight With Sweetness
Fight With Acceptance
Fight With Love
Fight With Silence

Fight With Prayer
Fight With Obedience

Fight With Luminescence
All Of These Tools
-Not Weapons-
He Will Provide You With
GOD
(Not Groban!)
GOD
Your Heavenly Father
Who Loved You Into Existence
Who Loved You
Since The Dawn Of Time
Who Loves You For All Of Eternity
And Who Will Raise You Again
To Spend All Of Eternity With His Faithful
So That You May Glorify Him Forevermore
For His Is The Glory
Sempiternal
Everlasting
Omnipotent
And
With No Equal
AMEN

This And That Tuesdays Is Baaa-aaack...!!!
"I knew a man who was a slave to logic
and his dreams were boring
Is there anything more pathetic
than having boring dreams?"
- Burton Cummings
Dreams, eh?
Then again -
"Imagination is greater than knowledge"
- Albert Einstein
Pretty unequivocal, is it not?
With all that in mind now -
let's analyze the scientific approach;
the meticulous methods of analysis
any given scientist will use
in order to ascertain "the facts"...
Something that is not perceptible
or rather quantifiable
will be deemed to be non-existent
and a mere figment
of one's imagination.
Now, are we to believe that
Criss Angel's
astounding tricks and deceptions
are "real"
and will get the "thumbs up"
from the scientific community
simply because of all the
evidence and documentation
that exists about it?
Since there are numerous eyewitnesses,
video footage that leaves little doubt
to what it is that we are seeing,
even when Criss defies all laws
of science, including gravity...!
Will a scientist dare say that
Criss Angel is for real
and Jesus Christ is not?!?
SIMPLY BASED UPON THE FACT THAT
HE CAN SEE AND QUANTIFY ONE
AND CANNOT DO SO WITH THE OTHER...
HMM?!?
The scientific brain trust
will not ask themselves
"by what power does he do this"
but rather
"HOW does he do this"
- valueing the mechanics
over the heart of the matter
and making the dumbest mistake
of all, in the sad
(even if thoroughly scientific)
process...!!!
For it has gotten to this -
we no longer care
or give a flying fig
or a rat's a$$
about the morals
and implications
of any given thing -
we are all too embroiled
in being politically correct
and all-accepting
(even though we are not
where it really matters)
so that archaic concerns
such as
"is it an evil power
that allows one such as
C.A. to concoct such
elaborate illusions
that can even deceive
the usually unforgiving
eye of a camera"
and
"is this guy making himself
like unto a god"
- all of these questions and more
simply go out the window,
by the wayside,
for none of it matters
in this day and age
when horrors are hidden
go unseen
or are outright
covered up!
All in the name of
political correctness!
(No - no conspiracy
theories here -
sorry folks!)
It was ironic that,
the very same day that I saw this
amazing feat of Criss Angel's
(when he glides on thin air
from rooftop to rooftop,
somewhere in Vegas I believe,
before a crowd too
and filmed
from all angles...!)
on A&E
(still amazes me that
the once-illustrious
A&E
has this on now -
this and DOG,
THE BOUNTY HUNTER!
But I digress...)
I flipped over to CNN
and caught Anderson Cooper's
360° spin on what horrors
are going on down in
LOUISIANA...
A full and long
TWO YEARS AFTER
Hurricane Katrina,
there remains
unidentified
corpses
of the victims
who fell during the
natural disaster.
These bodies
along with others
that have gone
UNCLAIMED
remain stored in a
WAREHOUSE
- awaiting a proper
and decent burial.
FURTHER MORE...
In Louisiana,
there were 162 murders
the year after the hurricane!
Out of those 162 cases,
only 3 CONVICTIONS
as of June 2007!
So much for the
good ole open and shut cases,
eh?
I guess forensic science
down in "NOLA"
(New Orleans, Louisiana)
is not seeing the evidence either...
I guess there is a limit to
what DNA identification can
accomplish too...
I guess that,
as long as they're out of sight
and stored away,
THERE ARE NO CORPSES
to bury in Louisiana!
Science can turn a blind eye,
either when it wants to
or when its limitations
come to the fore!
For there to be no refutation
of the facts,
they need to have it all handed to them
on a silver platter.
Well, sorry pals but
JESUS SAID IT:
"Blessed is he
who believes without seeing"
And THAT is a FACT.
