Dad of the Year in Scotland

Cute and feisty girl!

In Scotland, a dad and his daughter discuss her future:



“You’re going to work for Jesus.  End of story!”

Have You Heard Of "Pascal's Wager"?

How much are you willing to bet on Pascal’s wager?
Either life is this short, sensory-overloaded headlong plunge into YOLO, followed by nothing, or it’s just the very tip of a journey to infinity. The fulcrum upon which our choice balances is whether we believe that the universe was created by an uncaused, all-powerful, intelligent agent or it’s just here as a result of its own accident.
Since none of us was here when the “Big Bang” happened, we can’t rely on reason to provide an answer.
The wager is simple.
1. God is, or God is not. Reason cannot decide between the two alternatives.
2. A Game is being played… where heads or tails will turn up.
3. You must wager (it is not optional). We all die.
4. Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing.
Wager, then, without hesitation that He is. (…) There is here an infinity of an infinitely happy life to gain, a chance of gain against a finite number of chances of loss, and what you stake is finite. And so our proposition is of infinite force, when there is the finite to stake in a game where there are equal risks of gain and of loss, and the infinite to gain.
You can either live your one life as if there is no God, and die with an equal chance of missing an infinity of happiness, trading it for an infinity of judgment and separation from God. Or you can live your one life as if God exists, giving up even all that you possess in order to attain an eternal reward.
If you give up all and are wrong, you’ve only lost a few common and fleeting pleasures in your one life, which you still lived happily believing for a reward. Really, you’ve lost nothing that you didn’t have to begin with. But if you give up the eternal reward and are wrong, you’ve lost everything.
That’s a bet I would not, could not, cover. Nobody could. All the riches of the world could not be enough to cover that wager. It’s not a safe bet, ever.
Faith in a God that cannot be proven rationally is not rational. However, belief that you should have faith is perfectly reasonable, as Pascal, a mathematician and philosopher, laid out in an airtight argument. Even Pascal acknowledged that not all can believe–that faith is an irrational action of the mind. He addressed it this way.
But at least learn your inability to believe, since reason brings you to this, and yet you cannot believe. Endeavour then to convince yourself, not by increase of proofs of God, but by the abatement of your passions. You would like to attain faith, and do not know the way; you would like to cure yourself of unbelief, and ask the remedy for it. Learn of those who have been bound like you, and who now stake all their possessions. These are people who know the way which you would follow, and who are cured of an ill of which you would be cured. Follow the way by which they began; by acting as if they believed, taking the holy water, having masses said, etc. Even this will naturally make you believe, and deaden your acuteness.
Pascal’s wager does not hinge on whether you do believe now–it hinges on your conclusion that you ought to believe because it’s the only rational action. Once you have considered this, you should begin to see others, who have given up their own lives for the sake of the Gospel, not as fools, but as the wisest people on Earth.
One day, we all become the ultimate statistic: 10 out of 10 of us will die. How will you answer Pascal’s wager?

Stupid is as stupid does...

The war started in the 7th century and lasted through the 17th century. I would contend it never stopped but historically the facts below are correct.

This is why I choke when I hear someone say we will defeat or contain these Islamic terrorists in a few years or even 30 years as recently stated by Leon Panetta.


If the latest batch of murders, beheadings, and killing of innocent Christians has shocked you, maybe you should read this compilation of historical facts about the hatred demonstrated by muslims.

WE, THE STUPID

This is factually (and historically) correct - and verifiable:

    In 732 A.D. the muslim army, which was moving on Paris, was defeated and turned back at Tours, France, by Charles Martell.

    In 1571 A.D. the muslim army/navy was defeated by the Italians and Austrians as they tried to cross the Mediterranean to attack southern Europe in the Battle of Lepanto.

    In 1683 A.D. the Turkish muslim army, attacking Eastern Europe, was finally defeated in the Battle of Vienna by German and Polish Christian Armies.

This crap has been going on for 1,400 years and half of the politicians don't even know it.

If these battles had not been won, we might be speaking Arabic and Christianity could be non-existent; Judaism certainly would not exist.


Reflecting:  A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine that America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves. Pause a moment and reflect back.

These events are actual events from history. They really happened!  Do you remember?

 48 years since 1968 and this just keeps going on and on.

1. In 1968, Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by a muslim male.
2. In 1972, at the Munich Olympics, Israeli athletes were kidnapped and massacred by muslim males.
3. In 1972, a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to Cairo where a fuse was lit on final approach.
Shortly after landing it was blown up by muslim males.
4. In 1973, a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome, with 33 people killed, when it was attacked with grenades by muslim males.
5. In 1979, the US embassy in Iran was taken over by muslim males.
6. During the 1980's a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by muslim males.
7. In 1983, the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by muslim males.
8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70-year old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by Muslim males.
9. In 1985, TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver trying to rescue passengers was murdered by muslim males.
10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by muslim males.
11. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed the first time by muslim males.
12. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by muslim males.
13. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers and of the remaining two, one crashed into the US Pentagon and the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers. Thousands of people were killed by muslim males.
14. In 2002, the United States fought a war in Afghanistan against muslim males.
15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by - you guessed it - a muslim male. (Plus two other American journalists who were just recently beheaded).
16. In 2013, the Boston Marathon Bombing resulted in 4 Innocent people, (including a child) being killed and 264 people injured by muslim males.


No Obama, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you? So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people.

So, ask yourself "Just how stupid are we???"

Absolutely No Profiling! They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the Obama's security detail, 85-year-old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, BUT........leave muslim males alone lest we be guilty of profiling.
Ask yourself, "Just how stupid are we?" Have the American people completely lost their minds or just their Power of Reason???



" Forrest Gump " so aptly put it, "Stupid Is As Stupid Does."

AS OBAMA SAID IN HIS BOOK "NOTHING SOUNDS SO BEAUTIFUL AS THE muslim EVENING PRAYERS FROM THE TOWER".

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!---and anyone else reading this.

AND, IF WE WANT THIS TO CONTINUE, ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS ELECT HILLARY AS OUR PRESIDENT

Unemployment Rate

 
COSTELLO:  I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America  .

ABBOTT
: Good Subject.  Terrible Times.  It’s 5.6%.

COSTELLO
:  That many people are out of work?

ABBOTT
: No, that’s 23%.

COSTELLO
: You just said 5.6%.

ABBOTT
:  5.6% Unemployed.

COSTELLO
:  Right 5.6% out of work.

ABBOTT
: No, that’s 23%.

COSTELLO
: Okay, so it’s  23% unemployed.

ABBOTT
: No, that’s 5.6%.

COSTELLO
:  WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 5.6% or 23%?

ABBOTT
: 5.6% are unemployed.  23% are out of work.

COSTELLO
: If you are out of work you are unemployed.

ABBOTT
:  No, Obama said you can’t count the “Out of Work” as the unemployed.  You have to look for work to be unemployed.

COSTELLO
: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!!

ABBOTT
: No, you miss his point.

COSTELLO
:  What point?

ABBOTT
:  Someone who doesn’t look for work can’t be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn’t be fair.

COSTELLO
: To whom?

ABBOTT
: The unemployed.

COSTELLO
: But ALL of them are out of work.

ABBOTT
: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work Those who are out of work gave up looking and if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed.

COSTELLO
: So if you’re off the unemployment roles that would count as less unemployment?

ABBOTT
: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely!

COSTELLO
: The unemployment just goes down because you don’t look for work?

ABBOTT
: Absolutely it goes  down. That’s how it gets to 5.6%. Otherwise it would be 23%.

 
COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means there are two ways to bring down the unemployment number?

ABBOTT
: Two ways is correct.

COSTELLO
: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job?

ABBOTT
: Correct.

COSTELLO
: And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job?

ABBOTT
: Bingo.

COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemployment down, and the easier of the two is to have people stop looking for work.


ABBOTT: Now you’re thinking like a Democrat.


COSTELLO:  I don’t even know what the hell I just said!  


ABBOTT: Now you’re thinking like Hil
liary.

When will we wake up????

I'm 73 and I'm Tired

This should be required reading for every man, woman
and child in the UK , in the U.S.A, Canada ,
Australia and New Zealand    
 

By
  Robert A. Hall
  
I'm 73
    
Except for one
semester in college when jobs were scarce and a
six-month period when I was between jobs, but
job-hunting every day, I've worked,
hard,  since I was 18.
Despite some health challenges, I still put in
50-hour weeks, and haven't called in sick in
seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but
I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I
worked to get where I am. Given the economy,
there's no retirement in sight, and I'm tired.
Very tired.  
  
I'm tired
  of being told
that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who
don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being
told the government will take the money I
earned, by force if necessary, and give it to
people too lazy to earn it. 
  
I'm tired
   of being told
that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every
day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men
killing their sisters, wives and daughters for
their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over
some slight offense; of Muslims murdering
Christian and Jews because they aren't
"believers;" of Muslims burning schools for
girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims
to death for "adultery;" of Muslims mutilating
the genitals of little girls; all in the name of
Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari???a law tells them to. 
  
I'm tired
   of being told
that, out of "tolerance for other cultures," we
must let Saudi Arabia use our oil money to fund
mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach
hate in America and Canada, while no American
nor Canadian group is allowed to fund a church,
synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia to
teach love and tolerance..  
  
I'm tired
   of being told I
must lower my living standard to fight global
warming, which no one is allowed to debate.
I'm tired   of being told
That drug addicts have a disease, and I must
help support and treat them, and pay for the
damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a
dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up
their noses while they tried to fight it off? 
  
I'm tired
   of hearing
wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians
of both parties talking about innocent mistakes,
stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we
All know they think their only mistake was
getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense
Of entitlement, rich or poor. 
  
I'm real tired
   of people who
don't take responsibility for their lives and
actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the
government, or discrimination or big-whatever
for their problems.
  
Yes, I'm damn tired
. But I'm also glad to
be 73.. Because, mostly, I'm not going to have
to see the world these people are making. I'm
just sorry for my granddaughters and grandsons.
  
Robert A. Hall is a Marine Vietnam veteran who served
five terms in the Massachusetts State Senate.
There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless
each of us sends it on!
This is your chance to make a difference.
   
"I'm 73 and I'm tired." If you don't forward this you
are part of the problem.

American Pie


"American Pie"  was the name of the plane that Buddy Holly went down in. When the words are put  together with pictures and film clips the song takes on a new meaning.  It took a lot of thought to produce this. Brings back lots of memories.

Worlds Largest Insane Asylum

Please read the last paragraph - Pelosi's thinking is scary!!!!
 
California....LARGEST INSANE ASYLUM IN THE WORLD


Interesting that the LA Times did this.  Lou Dobbs reported this on CNN and it cost him his job.  The only network we would see this on would be FOX.  All the others are staying away from it.  Whether you are a Democrat or Republican this should be of great interest to you!


Just One State - be sure and read the last part...try for 3 times.

This is only one state....If this doesn't open eyes, nothing will!

From the L. A. Times.

1. 40% of all workers in L.  A.  County ( L.A. County has 10.2 million people) are working for cash and not paying taxes.  This is because they are predominantly illegal immigrants working without a green card.
(Donald Trump was right)

2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.

3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.

4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Media-Cal, whose births were paid for by taxpayers.

5. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.

6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.

7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.

8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.

9.  21 radio stations in L. A. are Spanish speaking.

10.  In L.A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million speak Spanish.  (There are 10.2 million people in L.  A. County.)

(All 10 of the above facts were published in the Los Angeles Times)


Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare. Over 70% of the United States 'annual population growth (and over 90% of California , Florida , and New York ) results from immigration. 29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.

We are fools for letting this continue.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Send copies of this letter to at least two other people.  100 would be even better.

This is only one State...If this doesn't open your eyes nothing will, and you wonder why Nancy Pelosi wants them to become voters!


IF YOU DON'T AGREE JUST DELETE--IF YOU DO--PASS IT ON!  WHERE DO WE GET THESE MORONS?

Windfall Tax on Retirement Income Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you.  Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income.  In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement.  This woman is a nut case!  You aren't going to believe this.

Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds!
   Alas, it is true -- all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!

This woman is frightening. She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this?), and in our country and at the same time, limiting the amount the rich can invest.  (I am not rich, are you?)

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:

'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities.  For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities.  Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans''.

(Read that quote again and again and let it sink in.) 'Lower your retirement; give it to others who have not worked as you have for it.

Send it on to your friends.  I just did!  This lady is out of her mind!



The Donald's First Day in Office

(I didn’t compose this……)  Just helping you enjoy your day.

1.
President Donald Trump and Vice President Marco Rubio are sworn into office.

2.
In a rare event on inauguration day, Congress convenes for an emergency meeting to repeal the illegal and unconstitutional Socialist healthcare farce known as Obamacare. The new Director of Health and Social Services Dr. Ben Carson announces that an independent group of healthcare management  professionals is hired to handle healthcare services for poor and low income people. They are also assigned the duty of eliminating Medicare and Medicaid fraud. Government’s costs for public healthcare are reduced by 90%. Healthcare insurance premiums for working Americans are reduced by 50%. The move saves billions of taxpayer paid dollars. Healthcare service in the U.S improves 100%.

3.
Newly appointed Department of Homeland Security Chief Ted Cruz announces the immediate deployment of troops to the U.S. Mexico border to control illegal immigration and the immediate deportation of illegals with criminal records or links to terrorist groups. New bio-encrypted Social Security ID’s are required by every American citizen. Birthright is abolished. All immigration from countries that represent a threat to the safety of American citizens is terminated indefinitely. The move saves American taxpayers billions of dollars. Several prisons are closed.

4.
Newly appointed Secretary of Business and Economic Development Carly Fiorina eliminates more than half of the Government agencies operating under the Obama administration saving taxpayers billions of dollars. Stocks rise 100%.

5.
Newly appointed Director of Government Finance Rand Paul announces the abolition of the IRS and displays a copy of the new Federal Tax Return form. It consists of one page. The instructions consist of two pages. The Federal Reserve is audited. The move saves American Taxpayers billions of dollars and increases tax revenue.

6. Hillary Clinton is in prison, where she belongs. Her cell is directly across from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton who are serving time for "Hate Crimes". She bitches at them constantly from behind the bars of her cell in what some call cruel and unusual punishment.

7. Bernie Sanders is in the nuthouse, where he belongs. His room is directly across from Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chris Matthews and Al Franken. They meet for tea every day at 10 AM and discuss the success and benefits of Communism and Socialism throughout the world. They also wonder when the "Mothership" is going to pick them up and return them to their home planets.

8. Windows 12 is released. It is designed for humans, doesn’t try to satisfy the needs of every person on the planet, doesn’t require a degree in nuclear physics to operate and looks just like Windows 7 except it is easier to use.

9. Barack Obama flees the United States under the cover of darkness and returns to his homeland of Kenya before his trial for treason begins. He deplanes on a remote jungle airstrip. It was reported that he was last seen wandering through the jungle singing “Hakuna Matata” with a chimp named Commie.

10. Oscar Meyer announces the introduction of a new cholesterol and fat free pepperoni that tastes just like regular pepperoni.

11. Not to be outdone, Kraft Foods announces the introduction of several varieties of cholesterol and fat free cheeses that taste just like regular cheese.

12. A committee is not established to determine what is causing global cooling. Billions of taxpayer dollars are saved.

13. Dead people
are no longer allowed to vote in Chicago, a huge blow for the Democrat Party in the State of Illinois.
