    THE SUPREME COURT ALLOWS ANIMAL CRUELTY VIDEOS
    April 20, 2010 - United States

    The Supreme Court has ruled that a law which makes it illegal to sell videos of animals being tortured violates the right to free speech. Chief Justice John Roberts said that the law was too broad and invalid to be used under the First Amendment. The ruling is a victory for Robert Stevens, who was sentenced in 2005 to three years for making and selling videos of dog fights. The 1999 law that was used to convict him was intended to prevent depictions of animal cruelty. It was adopted by Congress and originally aimed at limiting internet sales of "crush" videos which show women crushing small animals with high-heeled shoes. Stevens has argued that the videos were intended to educate people about the pit bull breed and that he was not trying to promote illegal dog-fighting.

    "NEW BANKRUPTCY LAW"
    April 20, 2005 - United States

    President George W. Bush signed the "New Bankruptcy Law" making it harder for debt-ridden people to wipe clean their financial slates by declaring bankruptcy. The Act of Congress attempts to make it more difficult for consumers to discharge debt ( under which most debts are forgiven or discharged) under Chapter 7 ( Chapter 7 which was the most common form of bankruptcy in the United States ). The second most popular form of Bankruptcy Chapter 13 was "reorganization", or debt adjustment. **** Personal Opinion *** It appears from reading that due to some means test associated with the new laws approximately 85% of debtors are not subject to its "means test" and a large percentage of the rest are able to "pass" the means test. And although Chapter 7 is slightly more complicated it appears it is still in wide spread use.

For most of my life, until this point, I had been exposed to listening to those who were giving out misinformation, half-truths and down right lies about their interpretation of the Holy Bible.

I know that I am not alone in my search for the truth concerning our existence and purpose for being here (on earth at this time), therefore I will continue my quest for truthful information that can be backed up by the WORD of God and pass it along to those who are seeking the same.

This discussion will start at the beginning for clarity (Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth). God's original intention was and still is, to make the earth a colony of His kingdom in heaven.

But let's start at the beginning. He had to set the stage by creating the back drop and props first. This portion of His creation is explained in scripture (Genesis 1:2-26.) After everything was in place, He created man. Now remember that every good architect and designer has a purpose in mind for everything that He does before it comes into existence. Scripture tells us that He "knew us individually" before He began creation. He is Alpha and Omega.

Genesis 1:26-28 "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

God is a triune and Spiritual Being (Father, Son and the Holy Spirit - The Godhead). Genesis 1:27 "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them."

The first part of verse 27 explains that man is a triune being after the image of God (Spirit, Soul and Body.) God gives the Spirit, which is a part of Him. The Soul comprises our five senses, our ability to reason and choose etc., and our Body (Our "Flesh Suit" is necessary to exist in the earth realm.)

The second part of verse 27 clearly states that God created man to be both male and female. Let's stop here for a moment. In everything God does there is order and purpose to it. All living things that God created are designed to reproduce after their own kind, including man. Even though God created the male first, He knew that it was not good for man to be "alone" or "all-in- one." So He made a fe-male (a male with a fetus) so that woman (man with a womb) could reproduce and be a companion (helper) to the male. Hence the male carries the "seed" and the female was designed with the womb to conceive and give birth. There is nothing secular man can do to change God's original design... period!

Genesis 1:28 "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."

Though God made the female after the male, He gave them both dominion over the earth and not each other originally. The "man" Spirit in both male and female are equal in the eyes of God. It is man's "heart" that God looks at.
