Ridicules ridicule

Joel, has taken the liberty of creating his own Ten Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe, but he is doing it in a mocking tone, not to mention none of what he says it true.
1. A mistranslated book written by cave people is a reliable guide to the modern world.
   First, the Jew most certainly were not "cave people". Secondly  it is not mistranslated, we have so mant copies of ancient Bibles/old testemens it we can cross reference them and most all are the same, ecpetf for a grammar error here and there.

7. To show our thanks for his sacrifice , we should put special crackers and wine in our mouths, where they will  be magically transformed into his flesh and blood, which we should then swallow despite taboos regarding cannibalism.
  It does not turn into his blood and flesh, that is mess some nut job came up with, it is symbolic.

10. Thomas Kinkade is an awesome painter.
  He is an awesome painter. Just because it is a little, dreamy does not mean he isn't a good painter.

Oops

  How would you like to have a mansion that could hold over 200 people in the banquet hall? It would be nice wouldn't it? Well Russian businessman Dmitry Stroskin did. Did being the key word here, he was away and had contracted a construction comply to refurnish and revanvate the place, what happend instead was they ripped it down instead. There was a building on the property that was to be torn down, but the was not it.

Black Ops 2 came out on November 13 featuring many things that may become an actuality in war. In this game you use drones such as the fictional CLAW and the combat quad-copter.  Or are they? On Youtube there is a Chanel calked FPS RUSSIA that appears to have used a quad copter just like the ones in Black Ops. For veruis reasons I can not post the video, but if you want to see it just search FPS RUSSIA quad-copter. One of the many people working on this game said

 "Call of Duty: Black Ops 2" may achieve more than just becoming one of the biggest entertainment products of the year. The best-selling video game could help shape the real-world thinking of the U.S. military through its science fiction story of a Cold War playing out between the U.S. and China in 2025."

  While I will say it is a cool idea to have armed drones running around in combat, there is at least three problems with this. When do we give the robot the choice to kill pull the trigger to kill the human. When do we let the Robot deiced if someone lives or dies? What happens if it starts firing on our own troops?Lastly what about civilians  Unlike people robots will not be able to tell the difference between a terrorist and a civilian. A robot won't know the meaning of mercy only what it is programmed to do. 

Relection

Precedent Barack Obama has been reelected to the white house. He will now serve another four years.

Trump card

   Donald Trump, a wealthy business owner for anyone who doesn't know who he is, has offered to give Obama a sum of 5 million dollars to the charity of the president choice. The catch is that the President must release all his collage records. This seems like a good deal. Some may laugh, some may not even care, but many people do. This will let us know more about our current pres, and possibly the pres for the next 4 years. This is a win win situation for everyone. Obama has yet to comply.

pres 2

As many of you know the second Presidential debate of 2012 aired last night. While there were many note worthy things said I will only choose one to copy and paste.

(OBAMA: "Let's take the money that we've been spending on war over the last decade to rebuild America, roads, bridges, schools. We do those things, not only is your future going to be bright, but America's future is going to be bright as well."

THE FACTS: What Obama didn't mention is that much of the money that has been paying for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan was borrowed. In fact, the government borrows nearly 40 cents for every dollar it spends. Thus, using money that had been earmarked for wars to build schools and infrastructure would involve even more borrowing, adding to the federal deficit. ) ( through) was taken from this article from yahoo news http://news.yahoo.com/fact-check-stumbles-latest-presidential-debate-015330844--election.html

So alot of that money Obama was talking about wasn't even ours to begin with. So he will continue to borrower money to rebuild as he said. This country does not need to be on any more debt, therefore this is a bad idea.  

Debate

  The presidential debate this past Wednesday allowed for each Candidate to say "This is what I have come up with, and this is what I want to do." Romney , while not having the exacts down yet, has said he would like to give medicaid and medicare to the states and let them decided what is the best way to care for the residents of their residents while Obama wants to keep going with his Obama-care plan.
   However what really struck me was that Romney had no end of facts about the Economy that Obama, or so it seemed, didn't know about or couldn't fight against. As they continued to go on about the economy Romney presented what he thought would be the best way to get it moving again. Like lowering tax rates so that small business can start hiring more, more workers, more money changing hands, happy economy . Obama would then say well we should do this or we could do that. Saying the stuff he did would have made since if he was the one trying to get elected president for the first time and not already the president. The reason why is that has has had nearly four years to use his position to start the plans he presented  yet did he even try one of them? I don't believe he has.
   Wednesday's debate, according to many, had a clear winner and a clear looser. This election is not over yet but if Romney continues to carry himself like he did during this debate I believe we will have a Republican into the White House for the next 4 years.

DEER!!!!

 You have heard of people vandilising campaign signs before. But have you ever heard of an animal doing it? Tom and Beth Priem have experienced this first hand. They found thier Obama sign, on several occasions, had been knocked down with holes in it. So they decided to one morning wake up early and catch the culprit. It turned out to be one of the deer that roamed the neighborhood. Even the animal are beginning to take side in this election.

Libya Attack

   Chris Stevens and 3 others where killed when 20 armed men scaled the walls of the Libyan embassy, and opened fire with RPGs and machine guns. Some are speculating that the attack had already been planned, and the men were using the riot over a movie as cover to get close. While others are saying the attack was sparked by a movie, or rather movie clip insulting their prophet Mohammad. This horrible even happened on September 11, 2012,  the eleventh anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Towers in New York, The Pentagon, and a third attempted attack on the White House.

LS3

 In the past few years the military has started to look into ways for us to fight using robots. Using robots can one, limit the harm that can be done to our soldiers, two do things we can't, and over all just make it easier on the soldiers that are willing to fight for our country. DARPA's  LS3 is one of those many robots that are in development. Once finished,  it will be a robotic "pack mule" for the soldiers. Carrying some if not most of a soldiers load, such as extra ammo and other things that may slow him or her down.

Four soldiers

  Four off duty soldiers returning to their unit were recently killed due to a roadside bombing. The fighting in Iraq has quieted a bit since the it began in 2003, however, things like this still happen every so often. As seen from history, that region has been stooped in violence for a very long time. Sadly, it seems that fact will not change anytime soon.
