Haiti: Devistation and Devilment?

Haiti Earthquake Prepares for Death Toll of Thousands


A couple days after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit
the nation of Haiti, its inhabitants are yet in grave
and increasing devastation. There is still a limited
amount of medical supply, violence is increasing, and
the bodies of the deceased fill the streets.

In the midst of this disastrous situation a prominent
televangelist made the following statement,
Many years ago, the island's people "swore a pact to
the devil." They were under the heel of the French...
and they got together and swore a pact to the devil.
They said, 'We will serve you if you'll get us free
from the French.'" "True story. And so the devil said,
'OK, it's a deal.' They kicked the French out. The Haitians
revolted and got themselves free. Ever since, they have been
cursed by one thing after the other."

During the crisis that Haiti is suffering such statements
over this platform are unnecessary and do not promote the
purpose of God sending His Son into the world. When social
darkness is apparent and crisis can be identified, isn't the
responsibility of a Christian to be a light? That requires
putting down political agendas, racial differences and even
religious hang-ups though.
  • What are your views concerning the televangelist's statement?
  • What advise would you offer to an individual that wants to be
    involved in helping with the humanitarian efforts in Haiti?
  • Do you have any words of comfort and love for Haiti?

D.C. Sniper's Execution Set For Tonight

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQbh6MwuA51iIIRrXJNY1CrpSJxT6GETFuitLxSPkH7YYrMdCSPhHBsNQ4GGQ_UfAvvDFzit4jmuDZPZwVqUZEJmYQUHK9KvaV1IRNGHos7yECoF7IbOSE1f2ybmFCvSlWbj1wincqzlX1/s400/Muhammad.jpg


Over a three week period in the month of October
2002, the D.C. sniper emerged along with his accomplice
and took the lives of 10 people. After the most recent
denial of his appeal, John Allen Muhammad will be executed
by lethal injection tonight.

Muhammad's ex-wife broke the silence last night as she
appeared on Larry King, and said that she feels like she
was the ultimate target during Muhammad's rampage. This
fury is finally coming to an end or is it?
  • Some 7 years later what are your feelings about this incident?
  • Where were you when you heard about this escapade and what were your reactions?
  • Do believe that the sentence Muhammad received is fair?

Whitney Houston: Honesty The Best Policy?



In a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, Whitney Houston
discussed her very private struggles with her relationship
with Bobby Brown and the battle with her drug addition.

With Whitney's resurgence and recent CD release many are saying
that the private information that she shared on the Oprah
Show may alter the public's view of her. Oprah shared throughout
and after the show that it was the most powerful interview
that she has ever done.

Being captive all those year's in an abusive marriage and living
life on the edge with her drug abuse; doesn't she deserve to
sweep out her closet? It may be true that good news isn't celebrated
and bad news is often heralded!

Let's hear it from you:
  • Should Whitney have fully exposed her past?
  • Can she rebound from her broken past?
  • Have you been through something similar? Can you relate?

Obama: A Liar?



During a recent Presidential speech on the topic of
health care, South Carolina representative Joe Wilson
shouted at the president "you lie"! On Thursday, Wilson
offered a apology, but then turned around and released a
YouTube video defending what he did saying "On these issues,
I will not be muzzled, I will speak up and speak loudly..."

Of course, in America we have freedom of speech but...
  • Should this kind of behavior be allowed?
  • Should Wilson have some kind of consequence?
  • What do you think about Obama's health care proposal?
