Wow! Edited

While searching the internet for a few specific Bible verses, I stumbled upon this scary website. It's ffrf.org

or Freedom From Religion Foundation. Wow, is this scary. If you don't think we have a battle going on, you should check this site out. Check over their purposes and accomplishments. Notice their student essay contests offered to high schoolers.

In the accomplishment section you'll find:

Removing Ten Commandments monuments and crosses from public land

Ending 51 years of illegal bible instruction in public schools

Overturning a state Good Friday holiday

and several others.

And in the events section you can attend this:

"Tunes 'n 'Toons" plays in Ashland! Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Steve Benson and musician Dan Barker will team up to offer a humorous, multimedia dressing down of religious bigotry when they appear at Southern Oregon University

Wow is this website frightening. Just thought I'd share.

Edited to say:

If that wasn't scary enough check out this website that exposes the beliefs of one our the worlds most powerful and influential people:

Our church actually used part of that video in our sermon this past week and spoke in great lengths about it. How many people are listening and behaving because of what she says? We have to be ready. We need to defend our beliefs.

I have always known that about Oprah, that's why I never watch her show, I don't like anything about what she stands for.....If you just watch one episode you can see that she does not have Christian beliefs. It's sad that so many people follow her.

I too saw that video about Oprah and was going to post something about it. It is very scary. There is definately a war going on and it's not in Iraq.
