I Survived.....Beyond and Back

The spin off "I survived..... Beyond and Back" ended with a great episode. I had been waiting for this episode. Although they hinted a bit about darkness, this episode came right out ahd used the H word.

For those of you who haven't seen the series, It's a reality show based on NDE stories or "Near Death Experiences". I think the series ran 8 weeks and over the 2 month course, you heard many of the same adjectives and verbs such as, "I had an out of body experience" , "I saw the bright light that felt like endless love", and so on. Go to www.NDE.com if you want hours of endless reading. But the story for most of the series was repetitive. The person (first name only) has surgery or and accident etc, and the heart stops. The soul leaves the body and astral travels. The soul is told by a relative or something percieved as divine that: "It's not your time". The soul is rushed back into body and brought back to life. The confessions were very routine about hovering over there body, then going towards a warm light that gave the feeling of love. Giving you the secure feeling that death is fine. No problems. Nothing to see here move along.

In the finale; Matthew is shot in the head by a drive by in Atlanta. In a split second he is dead and in a place he refers to as Hell. No bright light, no relatives, no puppies or warmth. He's shackled over an "abyss" and naked. He hears the moans and cries of others (gnashing of teeth) and feels nothing but FEAR.

You can go to the BIO site to watch this episode, but his message was, HELL DOES EXIST. It's real and you're going to go to one of two places.

I've always preached (really) that you shouldn't fear Hell. FEAR TODAY. If you find yourself in HELL it's because you didn't take today for the Lord.

Don't Fear Hell. The time to worry about Hell is Today.

Japan 2011

I was in Japan in the late 70's playing my heart out. I think I left my heart in Japan. The culture, the People, the respect, the love, You've almost never seen anything like it. I predict the Japanese people will be back on their feet in no time. This is a RESILIENT culture. Unlike Haiti where the Island looks almost the same as it did after the quake, the Japanese people know what they have to do and are not wasting any time doing it.

I feel like my observations of the Japanese are almost racist. When you consider other cultures that sit and wait for someone else to take care of them, it's hard not to feel that all humans are not created equal. (See Albert Schweitzer's comments in his 1961 book "My African Notebook".

President's Day

I was eating lunch today with my 12 year old grandson when his mom asked him "What is tomorrow?" He said "It's President's Day"

She asked "What does that mean?" .... I was waiting for something profound... explanation

He said: "President's Day is when Obama steps out of the White House and if he sees his shadow, we have 2 more years of Unemployment.

PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE

This is for anyone who doesn't know that the word "progressive" is the left's code word for "socialist" and "anti-American"!

PROGRESSIVE AUTO INSURANCE

You know their TV commercials . . . they’re the ones featuring Flo, the perky actress all dressed in white.

What you might not know is that the Chairman of Progressive is Peter Lewis, one of the major funders of leftist causes in America.



Between 2001 and 2003, Lewis funneled $15 million to the ACLU, the group most responsible for destroying what’s left of America’s Judeo-Christian heritage.

Lewis also gave $12.5 million to MoveOn.org and American Coming Together, two key propaganda arms of the socialist left.



His funding for these groups was conditional on matching contributions from George Soros,the America-hating socialist who is the chief financier of the Obama political machine.



Lewis made a fortune as a result of capitalism, but now finances a progressive movement that threatens to destroy the American free enterprise system that is targeting television shows on Fox News.



Peter Lewis is making a fortune off of conservative Americans (who buy his auto insurance) so that he can help dismantle the very system that made him wealthy. He’s banking on no one finding out who he is.

So . . . you may want to consider not buying Progressive Insurance and pass this information on to any who might be considering such a purchase.
