I know there's been a lot of email going around in regards to 9/11/01, but
 this really makes you think. If you don't have time, at least skim through
 it, but the bottom line is something to think about....

 In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings, etc.
 Let's see, I think it started when Madeline Murray O'Hare (she was
 murdered, her body was found recently) complained she didn't want any
 prayer in our schools, and we said OK.

 Then, someone said you better not read the Bible in school... the
 Bible that says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your
 neighbor as yourself. And we said, OK.

 Then, Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they
 misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might
 damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide) and we said,
 an expert should know what he's talking about so we said OK.

 Then, someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our
 children when they misbehave. And the school administrators said no
 faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave
 because we don't want any bad publicity, and we surely don't want to be
 sued (There's big difference between disciplining and touching, beating,
 smacking, humiliating, kicking, etc.) And we said, OK.

 Then someone said, let's let our daughters have abortions if they want,
 and they won't even have to tell their parents. And we said, OK.

 Then some wise school board member said, since boys will be boys and
 they're going to do it anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms they
 want, so they can have all the fun they desire, and we won't have to tell
 their parents they got them at school. And we said, OK.

 Then some of our top elected officials said it doesn't matter what we do
 in private as long as we do our jobs. And agreeing with them, we said it
 doesn't matter to me what anyone, including the President, does in private
 as long as I have a job and the economy is good.

 And then someone said let's print magazines with pictures of nude women
 and call it wholesome, down-to-earth appreciation for the beauty of the
 female body. And we said, OK.

 And then someone else took that appreciation a step further and published
 pictures of nude children and then stepped further still by making them
 available on the Internet. And we said OK; they're entitled to their free
 speech.

 And then the entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies
 that promote profanity, violence, and illicit sex. And let's record music
 that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes. And we
 said it's just entertainment, it has no adverse effect, and nobody takes
 it seriously anyway, so go right ahead.

 Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they
 don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill
 strangers, their classmates, and themselves. Probably, if we think about
 it long and hard enough, we can figure it out.

 I think it has a great deal to do with "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW."
 "Dear God, Why didn't you save the little girl killed in her classroom? "
 Sincerely, Concerned Student... AND THE REPLY "Dear Concerned
 Student, I am not allowed in schools". Sincerely, God.

 Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the
 world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but
 question what the Bible says.

 Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to
 believe, think, say, or do anything the Bible says.

 Funny how someone can say "I believe in God" but still follow Satan who,
 by the way, also "believes" in God.

 Funny how we are quick to judge but not to be judged.

 Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread
 like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord,
 people think twice about sharing.

 Funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely through
 cyberspace, but the public discussion of God is suppressed in the school
 and workplace.

 Funny how someone can be so fired up for Christ on Sunday, but be an
 invisible Christian the rest of the week.

 Are you laughing?

 Funny how when you go to forward this link, you will not send it to
 many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or
 what they will think of you for sending it to them.

 Funny how I can be more worried about what other people think of me than
 what God thinks of me.

 Are you thinking?


NOTE: We, at touchoffire.com, find the events of 11 September, awful and are fully

against all who can perform such cowardly and satanic attacks. Out heartfelt
