Innocent Victims?

I've been hearing that phrase a lot lately and it always bugs me a bit. After all, who truly is innocent? Certainly, people like to think of themselves in the best light. Many would probably say that humans are basically good. But are we? Are you perfect?

Certainly, it is sad when someone is hurt or their life cut short. It can be heartbreaking and seem unfair. However we must remember that no one is perfect, we are all sinners and deserve the worst. It is only by God's grace that not everyone suffers horrible pain and death. In the end we won't be victims, everyone will either get what they deserve or what they have been given by Christ.

Happy Valentine's Day

I rarely have time to post anymore, but when I do I usually don't have anything to say.

In any case have a good Valentine's Day.


 

GK

This wouldn't be funny if it weren't at least partially true:

"The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to prevent the mistakes from being corrected." - G.K. Chesterton

Cartoons?

Political cartoons spark riots and deaths?

While I don't think the Danish Newspaper was very smart, it's silly to punish a whole country because of some cartoons.

I don't know how much the Muslim world buys from Denmark, but I may have to go out and buy some Danish ham this week.
