So if the incident of Achan in Joshua 7 is to be exegeted as meaning that God will thwart the efforts of a church because of a single unconfessed sin, does that mean a network should be set up where the members and attenders of a particular congregation can rat out alleged transgressions to the ecclesiastical authorities? The fact that Achan and his family were ultimately put to death in the passage doesn't exactly contribute to an atmosphere where those hearing this narrative will be wanting to own up to their shortcomings willingly if we are to heed its warning so literally. Furthermore, it is a bit of an interpretative stretch to insinuate that a congregation, where the age of the average attender is probably over the north side of 50, is guilty of Achanism because the swarms of children flocking to the annual summer vacation Bible school don't usually end up sticking around to be Sunday school regulars. Shouldn't those that have been around organized Christianity for any amount of time know that is just the way the ball rolls?

The Obama administration is spending $100,000 on the development of an ecofeminist video game. Of course, without the subsidy the game would likely be a flop. What gamer is going to want to put up with a mouthy nagging Black woman? Even if you have jungle fever, I doubt your fantasy is to hear her droning on about this foolishness. If the government continues in this fiscal profligacy, you won't need a video game to encounter a variety of post-apocalyptic horrors and deprivations. In all likelihood, you will be living them

I fail to see how Alex Jones' yelling is any worse than Michael Savage or Mark Levin raising their voices. I fail to see how his tears are any more a sign of mental instability than Glenn Beck's. And unlike the Speaker of the House's crocodile tears, at least Jones' are in relation to the horrors American children will no doubt be forced to endure in the years to come and not over some melodramatic disappointment from his own childhood.

Former General Stanly McChrystal insists that certain weapons should only be carried by soldiers and never civilians. Given that his expertise is in a theater of operations where the goal was to pacify an insurgent population likely by disarming them, what guarantees, other than the word of a government and administration that regularly reneges on its promises, are there that armed forces won’t one day use these weapons on American civilian populations denied access to such means of defense?

The cover article of the 11/19/12 issue of Broadcasting & Cable is titled “The New Faces Of Talk: Why Programmers Are Courting African American Viewers With Their Choices Of Talent.” Probably because they are primarily the ones at home during the day enjoying their Obamaphones and other assorted handouts provided by working Americans.

The prudes and the pervs together ruin nearly everything they touch. In Utah, a thoroughfare named Morning Glory Road (one of the most beautiful flowers in all of God's creation) has been renamed because the term is also a euphemism for the awakening stiffness of the male appendage of the type one is suppose to seek medical attention for if it lasts more than four hours.

Racemongers Rally To Gay Marriage's Defense
The Maryland referendum on gay marriage has been decided for now. However, the mindset and motivations leading up to such a decision are still in need of analysis and examination.
A couple of observations relating to it can be made regarding a column by Elbridge James of Progressive Maryland published in the 10/27/11 Gazette newspapers of suburban Maryland.
For starters, it is thoroughly established that Elbridge James is Black and borderline racist. He mentions his ethnic identity at least nine times in a piece of no more than 300 words.
Some of these references have very little to do with the topic at hand he is attempting to address.
For example, James writes, "Because I travel the state regularly speaking to Black voters of all ages and experiences on a variety of issues facing African Americans, I consider myself pretty plugged into the Black community." He concludes, "Continue to count on me when looking at African American support."
From his tone, one might assume this pigmentation narcissist was addressing a topic focusing particularly on HIS people such as sickle cell anemia awareness and prevention. It is in fact an oration in support of gay marriage.
So in regards to a topic that transcends race, why ought we to give added weight if a majority of Black folks supported gay marriage? All that tells the reader is that, given the mentality of dependency engineered into that particular demographic over the decades, those of this background can be manipulated into accepting a practice the religion so many of them claim to adhere to actually finds abhorrent.
If a majority of White southerners believe gay marriage is wrong, why shouldn’t that carry as much weight in determining the morality of the controversial practice?
Elbridge James also asserts, “The values of commitment and family aren’t confined to a person’s religion or race.”
But with some estimates of nearly 75% of Black babies being born outside of marriage, obviously commitment and family are not as valued among this particular human classification as he is persuading his readers to believe.
If Mr. James really loves his race rather than the status that has accrued to him as a fomenter of ethnic discord, perhaps he ought to spend his time addressing this lamentable development rather than promote an arrangement that will further tear down what little moral foundations remain of a rapidly deteriorating society.

Those that repeatedly go out of their way to tell people there is no proof that we will recognize our loved ones in Heaven have reached a point in their own lives where about the only joy they are capable of experiencing is crapping all over the only solace and comfort some might be able to find to make it day to day.

Yahoo.com Headlines Insinuate Indian Children More Precious Than Whites
A prominent headline posted at Yahoo.com on 12/30/12 read "Choctaw Family Devastated In Miss. Suv Wreck."
Sympathies go out to any family that loses five children in a single automobile accident.
However, had these individuals been run of the mill White people, would the news of their deaths have been as prominently placed?
Are we suppose to weep more for them just because they are American Indians?
And if they had been boring, regular White people, would the headline have read "Caucasian Family Devastated In SUV Wreck"?
And if their Prius had been flattened would that have been pointed out or is that sort of vehicle of such shoddy construction that that would have been expected anyway?

Wayne LaPiere of the of the NRA astutely observed that, if the President is worthy of being protected by armed security, why not the nation’s school children. However, a number of issues need to be addressed before his proposal of a national school security force is implemented throughout the country. For example, what if the administrators of a private school do not want such federal operatives roaming their halls? Furthermore, will the purview of their authority be restricted to stopping actual gun incidents as they unfold or will they also be trolling for the crimes of thought and non-sociability many are being duped into believing are even greater threats than the actual discharge of a firearm.
The world is so philosophically warped that contemporary culture is on the verge of categorizing men that recreationally wear camouflage as threats to public safety largely on account that they are individualists but applauds and protects with special laws the men that wear frilly dresses because they are souls willing to follow their own path.

Anti-Nativity Scrooges Selective In What Gods They Toss Out Into The Cold
For decades, Santa Monica churches erected nativity scenes on municipal park land there in celebration of the Christmas season. However, the onward march to abolish the assorted foundations upon which America was built continues unabated and is now even seeming to accelerate as evidenced by increasing numbers of the able bodied voting for demagogues promising bounty the recipients did not have to lift a finger for and to solemnize with one of society's highest recognitions relationships once considered so far beyond the boundaries of acceptability that the respectable were often too ashamed to even speak of. As such, even those trappings held over from the previous world order that brought joy and happiness to the adherents of beauty and truth must be eliminated.
In 2011, the authorization process for erecting the Nativities was altered so that many of the permits ended up going not to churches but rather to a motley assortment of unbelievers. As a result of the hassle and embarrassment, under the excuse of the necessity maintaining an unobstructed seaside view, municipal authorities decided to do away with depictive winter displays altogether.
The ultimate reason though is to deny access by any particular viewpoint by suppressing them all equally. Sort of the socialistic notion that everyone is equal because everyone is equally miserable.
Cutting edge commentary will likely focus on the here and now with how the tradition has been abolished in its entirety. However, the way the issue was handled in 2011 still gives rise to observations as pertinent today as they aptly apply to the overall tenor of the age in which we live rather than the narrow focus of a particular year which has already elapsed.
In 2011, one of the displays erected by the apostates and unregenerates read "What myths do you see? 37 million Americans know myths when they see them." Pictured along with the slogan were images of Neptune, Santa Claus, Jesus and Satan.
Of course, the Old Deluder, the Devil himself, has no problem being depicted as a buffoonish cartoon villain since, though he has a massive ego having at one time conspired to set his throne on the mount of the congregation in his attempt to usurp the place of the Almighty. At this point in the game, he is more concerned about dragging down as many as he can with him to eternal damnation rather than to get as many as possible to swear an eternal positive affirmation to his infernal name.
Of course, especially in a place like California, it really doesn't take all that much courage to thumb one's nose at Christ either. After all, He was the one that admonished the insulted to turn the other cheek and those ready to call for Crusades on behalf of His name, even if not in His spirit, don't exactly hold he sway they once did.
So shouldn't those wanting to take a courageous stand in the name of the Great Emptiness or however else one might be inclined to depict nothing whatsoever take on a figure whose backers show a little more teeth? For instance Islam? These fanatics threatened the producers of South Park for even obscuring the view of the specific personage that was suppose to be in the bear costume.
However, it seems these leftists converging upon California only go out of their way to have Judeo-Christian religious figures removed from view on public property. They seem to exhibit little opposition to deities advocated by less than Biblically acceptable religions and forms of belief.
For in California, in the mid 90’s a monument costing the taxpayers nearly $500,000 was erected to Quetzalcoatl. Quetzalcoatl is the winged serpent god from Aztec mythology around which a number of Hispanosupremacist front organizations hope to repaganize and de-Christianize this targeted demographic in preparation for the uprising against the United States when insurgents intend to slaughter the remaining Whites in disputed Southwestern territories.
Atheism is the belief that God does not exist. To be consistent, that would include those of a non-Christian variety as well.
Thus, it would be reasonable to conclude that there must be a greater overarching, more pragmatic commonality linking those that believe in no God and those that believe that higher order beings condescended down to our level who, rather than shed their blood and died on our behalf, insisted that our blood be shed and lives sacrificed to placate the base lusts of these craven entities whether the victims were willing or not. That shared commonality is nothing less than an outright hatred of the God that is there and a desire to see His followers silenced.

If social ineptitude is to be an indicator as to whether or not someone is likely to go postal according to the advocates of Minority Report style crime prevention, will adolescents fidgeting awkwardly in the school cafeteria eventually provoke the same response as two suspects exchanging wads of cash that bolt like deer when a police cruiser turns down the street?
A caller to WMAL's Chris Plante program argued against citizens possessing weapons technologically beyond those available to the Founding Fathers at the time the Constitution was adopted. Only White property holders could vote back then also. Should we return to that arrangement as well? That might relieve America of deadbeats voting themselves lavish welfare benefits.
Newsweek Trashes Christ’s Name During Christmas Season
The Dec. 17, 2012 issue of Newsweek Magazine published a cover story titled "Who Was Jesus."
Instead of providing a balanced perspective on this topic, editors instead allowed the topic to be addressed by Bart Ehrman.
Bart Ehrman's claim to fame is essentially undermining every tenet of orthodox Christianity by casting doubt on the sources that serve as the foundation of the faith in favor of texts more gnostic in origins and interpretation.
Thus, it must be asked, would Newsweek publish an article casting aspirations on the founder or central figure of another world religion deliberately during a time of the year held to be one of the most sacred among a significant percentage of the faith’s adherents?
Would Newsweek pull something like this during Ramadan?
Both Voltaire and Nietzsche in their respective eras remarked how the name of Jesus Christ was on the wane and that God was dead.
Now, a Bible Society has turned Voltaire’s former home into an office and it is Nietzsche that is dead.
As the periodical prepares to publish its last print edition towards the close of 2012, perhaps Newsweek should stop and reflect where its name will be 200 years or so in comparison to the Name Above All Names.

Analysts and pundits are suggesting that eliminating the Second Amendment may be the best way to prevent incidents of mass violence such as the Connecticut elementary school massacre. When that does not work as a cure, what will be there to protect the American people when it is argued that what is really needed to make the United States safe is the elimination of the First Amendment?
So if fanatic homeschooler Kevin Swanson initially summarized that the Connecticut elementary school massacre represents 27 reasons why to abandon the public education system, does he intend to modify his original claim and say the same thing about homeschooling since reports seem to indicate that Adam Lanza was educated in part through that form of pedagogy as well?
Liberals are going to need to make a decision. Are we still going to go with the line of just be yourself and everything will work out fine (one of the greatest loads of excrement pounded into children's heads)? Or should we put up enough of a front that we really give a crap so as to avoid being categorized by intelligence agencies as subversively introverted or reclusive?

According to Dominionist theologian Don Paulk, average Americans should be denied access to so-called “assault weapons” because the only purpose for such firearms is to quickly kill large numbers of people. However, he does not have a problem with police or military having access to such implements of carnage. Thus, how are innocent citizens suppose to protect themselves should the day eventually arrive when government forces are turned against innocent civilians?

A fuss is being made that it was difficult to identify the gunman of the Connecticut elementary school system because he was carrying his brother's ID. Thus, when the time comes for the Mark of the Beast to be implemented, those opposed to what will likely be a biochip identification system will be castigated as encouraging schoolhouse massacres.
Fanatic homeschooler Kevin Swanson is categorizing the tragic Connecticut elementary school shooting as 27 reasons why to abandon the public school system. Twenty-seven is the number slaughtered by the gunman. So should the shooting at the Amish school some time ago be categorized as whatever the number murdered reasons why to abandon private Christian education? Likewise, should someone ever go off at some kind of homeschool or church function, should such an incident be invoked as to why homeschooling or even church attendance should be abandoned?

In Mark 13:41-44, Jesus praised the widow that did not necessarily put the largest offering into the plate but who gave from what she did have. He did not proceed from behind the pulpit to ream the congregation a new one that what they had given was a "waste of time" because it was a single serving size rather than economy portion. These deadbeats and indigents are certainly a bunch of foodie snobs these days if they expect to eat at a level beyond what average Christians are able to extend in terms of charitable giving. It's not exactly a winning homiletical strategy to start in the announcements ridiculing what some have brought forward as part of the annual homeless mission outreach only to end the sermon in a sob story how giving has declined overall for the past two years. The result is only to prompt me to clamp down on my change purse all the tighter.

A fundamentalist blathering on about the evils of celebrating Christmas condemned children wanting to sit in Santa's lap rather than that of Jesus. However, there is not someone dressed in a Jesus costume down at the mall that a child can relate to in such a physical manner. Thus, isn't this a condemnation over a child not having reached a level of cognitive development over which they have no control rather than rebuking an actual sin? There is no winning with such clergy. They create an atmosphere where one is afraid of Hellfire if one does not reveal every last detail of one’s existential inner life and then commence another round of verbal castigation when what is revealed does not measure up to some ideal that few have ever achieved in an unblemished state.

Vagrant Aided By Police Officer Morphs Into First Rate Media Whore
I figured additional aspects of this story would develop.
It seems the vagrant provided a new pair of shoes by a good natured police officer was seen once again lurking barefoot around the streets of New York City.
It seems he has placed the shoes in hiding, thinking they will grow in value as a recognizable icon from the early days of social media.
It might be one thing to think a few steps down the road in terms of investments and the future.
However, this indigent has crossed over the line into outright greed.
No one would have known about this act of assistance without it having been photographed by a passing shutterbug that uploaded an image of the touching moment to Facebook, from where it went viral.
Now the recipient of the photographed act of kindness is demanding his cut of any royalties that might accrue or some other form of compensation since no one asked permission to take his picture.
Hopefully, he will get frostbite as a result of his decision to go discalced, but that will probably just earn this bum an even larger government handout.

The NRA is being characterized as a new version of the Ku Klux Klan because of the alleged number of Black lives ruined as a result of firearms violence. It is doubtful many of the Black youths gunning each other down take to heart the lessons taught by Eddie the Eagle.

The Internet is abuzz with shock that Harvard has authorized a club dedicated to the kinky sex described in Fifty Shades Of Grey. How is that any worse than the Gay Student Union or tax dollars going to disperse thousands of condoms each year through the campus health department as transpires at colleges across America throughout the course of the academic year.
You can't convince me that the Tide detergent commercial with the Hispanic couple with the thick accents isn't more about brainwashing viewers into a state of linguistic surrender as it is about selling product. If it is simply about selling laundry cleanser, where is the version with a Redneck couple with the slurred speech characteristic of the Deep South?

Prison Fellowship Ministries Up To Old Direct Mail Antics
One can tell the holidays that herald the conclusion of the year (Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas) are upon us.
Most can tell this by the crispness in the air or from the days growing noticeably shorter.
However, if your name and address has made it into the databases of Christian Evangelical direct marketing, you may also know Christmas time is coming because of an annual appeal received from Prison Fellowship Ministries on behalf of the organization's Angel Tree Project.
In most instances, those that send Christmas cards tooting their own horns at least have the decency to change up the content each year.
The same cannot be said of the part of the Angel Tree Project appeal designed to guilt recipients into compliance.
Contained with the mailing is what the unsuspecting will perceived as a handwritten message from a convict begging for a gift for his daughter.
According to the letter, there was still nine years left on the inmate's sentence and he would not be able to play a role in his daughter's life for nearly an entire decade.
However, since at least 2005 and perhaps even as far back as 2003, Prison Fellowship has been sending the exact same note.
As such, shouldn't "Richard" (if that is even his name) nearly be ready for release if he has not already departed the Big House? It is 2012, after all.
It's bad enough for Prison Fellowship to solicit for the organization's campaign in such a manner as to make those receiving the appeal seem guilty because those perpetrating any variety of criminal deeds have been incarcerated for violating the law.
You'd think that Prison Fellowship could at least exhibit the decency to feature a different jailbird each year still in need of the ministry's services.

The cover story of the November 24, 2012 issue of the New Scientist suggests humans might have been human much longer than originally thought. It would be amusing if science eventually gets to the point where it is admitted that our species has been fully human all along as well as the other species fixed within the parameters of their respective kinds.
Those inquiring as to whether Marco Rubio embraces the notion that the earth is millions of years old don't give a tinkers Darwin about scientific accuracy. What they are really hinting at is that they find such a candidate insufficiently relativistic in his thinking to undermine human dignity and traditional marriage or posses enough of a willingness to eliminate America's system of natural and Constitutional liberties.
To the Calvinist, if the individual is just a puppet with God's hand up their backside unable to profess anything but what the puppeteer allows to come out of its mouth, why is it the puppet's fault if the puppet is not allowed to confess belief in its creator and for any vile things the puppeteer allows the puppet to enunciate?
If the murder of Abraham Shakespeare is to be lifted up an example of the evil that befalls lottery winners, shouldn't the destitution, sloth, and debauchery wallowed in by many of the recipients of assorted government assistance programs extended to the able-bodied youthful be touted as evidence for the eventually abolition of most forms of public welfare?
I hope most realize that, when a publication lists an edition as a special double issue, that this is nothing but a plan to squeak by on the least amount of editorial effort as possible while attempting to fool the subscriber into thinking they are still receiving whatever ever number the volume is suppose to consist of. Often these double issues are no thicker contentwise than the usual installment.
If Pat Robertson thinks that the Genesis creation account should not be taken literally, why should we take as literal any verses of Scripture he invokes to justify the most idiotic segment of his program where he claims to telepathically see God healing generic nondescript illnesses where the televangelist hopes those falling for such parlor trickery will send in a hefty donation.

Paul Krugman denounced Marco Rubio (and by extension all Republican candidates identifying themselves in some way as conservative) for not embracing the theory that the world is millions of years old. However, isn't the hypothesis of a young earth more rational and less harmful than a political ideology that encourages indolence and sloth on the part of the able-bodied youthful?
I was never all that impressed with how much one gets back on one's taxes as a result of all the interest one had to pay out in order to receive anything. It is yet another form of government manipulation deluding the gullible into believing the have been given something that was already theirs to begin with.
If the Calvinist observes that many have been duped into believing they have plenty of time before they die to consider their eternal welfare, theologians holding to such have no one to blame but God if things are set up in such a way in terms of salvation if a person is nothing but a puppet in terms of where the individual ends up in the Afterlife.
According to Calvinism, how can unbelief be considered a sin if you aren't capable of assenting to the propositions of redemption unless permitted to do so by God Himself? In Calvinism, categorizing unbelief as a sin is akin to a bully grapping the hands of his victim, hitting the victim with the victims hands, and then asking the victim "Why are you hitting yourself?"
In Congress, Chicago voters may go from a Representative that prances around naked in gay bathhouses thinking he is a reincarnated Greek charioteer to an aspiring pedophile turned on by the prospects of defiling Catholic school girls. Of course, the really offensive outrage and fall of the republic is Mitt Romney admitting their is a sizeable demographic in this country that won't vote for you unless you lavish them with unearned handouts.

Shoppers whipped into a berserker frenzy kept in line by SWAT teams with police helicopters overhead while beating fellow shoppers to death for prepaid cell phones is one thing and over the line. However, is what is denounced as “commercialism” all that bad of a thing? Should analysts probe deeper, the discerning might discover that what these critics actually oppose is not so much the profanation of a Christian liturgical celebration but rather robust commerce and the widespread availability of abundant consumer goods. These beatnik Luddites would turn their nose up at OTHER people’s luxuries (while texting their condemnation on their numerous wireless devices that you are to forego in the name of simplicity and sustainability) whether such items were purchased between Thanksgiving and Christmas or acquired throughout the remainder of the year.

Homeless Man Hassles Hackman
Considerable consternation erupted online over actor Gene Hackman striking a homeless person.
The headline initially informing of such was formulated without a modifier or a more colorful description such as "crazed deadbeat" or "lewd indigent" in order to make Hackman appear to be this vile individual that makes a habit of accosting the downtrodden or deriving some kind of buzz from doing so.
Quite the opposite seems to be true.
From the complete account, Hackman was actually protecting his wife and the vagrant properly got what was coming to him.
Why should we care that Hackman's attacker was homeless?
Would the public have been informed of this incident if the assailant domiciled in a more traditional mode of habitation?
As in regards to race and ethnicity, many leftists will so romanticize destitution that they cultivate the perception that those characterized by this economic plight or social condition can do no wrong.
If so, are the hypertolerant going to insist that they would allow some filthy, possibly disease ridden, bum to put his hands all over their wives, daughters, or dinner dates they are hoping to impress?
The Declaration of Independence insists that, in terms of fundamental being, all men are created equal.
If we are to accept the notion that the homeless are no less human than the rest of us and are deserving of the same degree of respect and courtesy that we expect from other members of our species, it also follows that we should expect from them the same kind of character flaws plaguing the remainder of our kind and that we should be allowed to protect ourselves from them accordingly.

Ben Carson Urges Parents To Be Niggardly With Praise
In a Baltimore parent's magazine, in an interview famed surgeon Ben Carson seemed to suggest that a child should not receive any praise for the accomplishment of ordinary tasks.
What if those are the only things that a child is good at?
And if a child should not receive any praise for the accomplishment of ordinary things, applying this kind of logic why ought run of the mill parents then be fawned all over by children on Mother's or Father's Day.
After all, it was the parents that took it upon themselves to engage in those motions that result in a child coming into existence and should have known what it was they were getting themselves into.
Unless you are a Mormon or something, the child wasn't consulted in the matter.

According to homeschool activist Kevin Swanson in his sermon "Using Yourself Up", it is a sin if parents don't leave their children much of a financial inheritance. Well excuse the contemporary individual if they eat more than a single saltine cracker with a single sip of water per day and aren't amenable to living under a bridge like a common troll waiting for an unsuspecting goat to perambulate by. And what if, as in the case of many of the elderly, what you did save is eaten up by overwhelming medical expenses? Not only are we forced to suffer sickness as a result of the sin curse placed upon mankind, but according to this line of theological reasoning, we must also feel guilt for implications of the sickness itself now?

Judge Jeanine remarked on her Fox News program in light of the General Petraeus scandal that it is troubling that men can be manipulated sexually. At least to get a man to do what you want there needs to be the likelihood of a little T&A or some equivalent. The recent election proved that all it takes to get most women to sway at your command is to toss thirty pieces of silver at these harlots so they can go slaughter their unborn.
A Yahoo.com headline read "Republicans: GOP Should Get With The Times." In other words, party elites are advocating the public accepted of assorted forms of perversion, infanticide, and the denigration of the White race. Had the times we are suppose to get with been 1930's Germany, these are the same sorts likely stuffing the politically noncomformist and the genetically insufficient into boxcars sent on brisk locomotive holidays across the central European countryside.

Those Spewing Respiratory Expellant Should Remain Home From Church
In a Facebook comment, I admitted that I wasn’t too keen on being showered with viscous respiratory expellant by someone in the pew behind me trying to hack up a lung.
There is no reason why those suffering such afflictions shouldn't stay home.
As an omniscient deity, it's not like God is not able to determine whether you are legitimately sick or trying to pull a fast one over His eyes.
This sentiment is especially pertinent in a church that insists upon some asinine handshaking ritual where some won’t return to their pews until they’ve smeared their palms over every last palm in the congregation.
For sharing this observation that has no doubt crossed the mind of others, it was insinuated my faith was not as sincere as those that participate in foreign missions.
For responding that not everyone’s cup of tea is made of Third World sewer water, I had James 1:27 tossed back in my face about pure religion being visiting widows and orphans in their time of trouble.
I have visited people in hospital settings despite the near phobia I have of those places.
But I guess those I visited were too White and American to rack up any brownie points over yonder.
And unlike missionaries that send out photocards with their fifteen kids all dressed the same like they are members of some sort of cult, I don’t stretch out a hand expecting something to be placed in it while droning on incessantly how morally superior those dwelling in these heathen trashpile countries are to the run of the mill American Christian that doesn’t practice the faith at the level of a religious fanatic.

In a direct email fundraiser for their Angel Tree Project, Prison Fellowship Ministries invoked the passing of the ministry's founder Chuck Colson as a tactic to solicit contributions. The appeal closed by asking, "We need your church to ensure that no child is without a token of their mom or dad's love." What is the organization doing for the children who lost their parents as a result of the criminal actions of these convicts?
