TEENS KILLING TEENS MOVIE- SICK

As I drove through the parking lot of the shopping lot and the traffic was absurd, I looked to see why – the Movie theatre. The new movie; “Hunger Games” was released. Being the family man, community watch that I am, we went to see it and was I shocked.

The TV writer and author of the Hunger Games Suzanne Collins hooked up with her Hollywood elites of “Lions Gate Entertainment” have given America one of the worse assault on our teenagers in years. Yes, I saw it just to see and prove to myself the idea that the elites are still exploiting our culture with this filth.

The Hunger Games plot is a very sick, weak plot with a perverted suggestion that teenagers are weak, stupid, manipulative and extremely vulnerable to whatever the “State” demands of them. And even more sick is the notion that all the parents sit by and do NOTHING while the State kills their kids one by one.

What parent, what adult, what American citizen would sit by and allow this kind of perverted “suggestion” be aired – (Marketed toward the Teenagers) in a time when school killings and teen violence is on the rise? Where is the outcry? Where are the teen advocates in our nation? SHAME on you Suzanne Collins for your corruption you have sown into the minds of our children. Shame on you!!!

Obviously, DO NOT see this movie!!! Not only is the story plot extremely weak, the acting is a B- and the dialogue is 6th grade (or less). Scholastic, Inc. is the publisher of “The Hunger Games” books and I pray you contact them and offer your opinion of this book: http://scholastic.custhelp.com/app/ask You also can find their phone numbers and address on their website also. I could not find Suzanne Collins email or contact info.

5 STEPS TO BREAKING EXCUSES

Luke 14:20-23 0 Still another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.' 21 So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind.' 22 And the servant said, 'Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.' 23 Then the master said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
1. ANGER – You must get fed up with incompetence, irresponsibility. Anger is the highest emotion = gives you all the fuel you need to take charge. We need high power to overcome selfish chains of superiority. “Let him who thinks he stands, take heed, lest he fall (1 Cor 10:12). Be angry & sin not (Ep 4:26). Excuses are the tools of the weak and incompetent. Used to build monuments of nothingness. Those who excel in it seldom excel in anything else but excuses.
2. GO QUICKLY – Take action NOW. Procrastination is the womb of excuses. Jesus was teaching that if any of us is ever to break the chain of excuses that is stopping us from our God given goal, we must act quickly. Now perform the doing of it (2 Cor 8:11). Most people live and die without their music ever being played. No action, no change. Limited action, limited change. Take action, Change occurs. Until you spread your wings, you’ll never know how far you can fly. Go beyond yourself. Lance Armstrong: “Pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever.
3. BRING THE POOR – See beyond yourself. Excuses elevate self above, To break these chains we must see the big picture. Reach outside of your own world and touch a life, heal the sick, save the lost and you will be FREED from excuses. Luke 14:13-14 invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind. 14 And you will be blessed. Jesus knew that if we help those worse than ourselves we could not be irresponsible, we must sacrifice. Look at that little baby and make excuse why you don’t have time; No, you will pay the price. Hungry baby, deceived teen, abused woman = You will reject cheap excuses & do your DUTY. Opportunities are never lost; someone will always take up what others fail to take.
4. COMPEL – get passionate, outrageous insistence, strong arm (G). "to put constraint upon, 'necessity', to constrain, whether by force or persuasion"; Jesus "constrained" the disciples to get into a boat (Matt 14:22). Saul of Tarsus "strove" to make saints blaspheme (Acts 26:11) "compelled"; Peter "compelled" Gentiles to live as Jews (Gal 2:14); Paul was "constrained" to appeal to Caesar (Acts 28:19). Whether you think you can or think you cannot, you’re right.
5. FILLED – Ultimate purpose of life. Jesus knew that if we were going to Break the chains of Excuses off of us, we must have an ultimate purpose above ourselves. When fulfilling your divine duty, obey your heavenly call hits home so hard that the devil puts Excuses in your mouth, look up and see the BIG picture and your excuses will flee. When we can see how God is to get glory through our fulfilling our Duty, all excuses will sound so cheap. Why compare yourself with others? NO one in the entire world can do a better job of being you than YOU.

Failure is often the result of continual excuses that justify un-involvement and selfishness, while success always is a product of personal responsibility. Excuses only reveal our weaknesses and demonstrate our unwillingness to take action. In fact, believing we are incapable of greatness is merely a cover-up for avoiding personal responsibility. Worse, excuses subordinates God’s ability to work in our lives.
NO MORE EXCUSES – 1) Get fed up with irresponsibility, 2) Take action NOW, 3) Reach beyond yourself and help someone worse off, 4) Get passionate about life, 5) Realize that your Big or Little part in life is all about God getting Glory through YOU.

ABC ATTACKS CHRISTIANITY

ABC (owned by Disney World) has attacked Christianity again in their new TV series: “GCB,’’ which is from the series by the name of the 2009 novel that inspired it, “Good Christian Bitches.’’ The series began airing last Sunday. ABC’s website describes the series as a “funny, sassy and heartwarming drama.’’ Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich says “No network would run a show with such a title if the word ‘Muslim’ were used in place of Christian.’’ Gingrich says anti-Christian bigotry is considered acceptable by the entertainment industry but Islam is protected.

“Here’s to show you the biases of the elite media, look at the new show that’s on that has the word ‘Christian’ in it and I want you to take the exact name, drop out Christian and put in Muslim,” Gingrich said. “And ask yourself, is there any network that would have dared to run a show like that and you know the answer is not a one because anti-Christian bigotry is just fine in the entertainment industry but they have to be very protective of Islam.”

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see just how corrupt and Anti-Christian the media elites are depicted in this filthy assault on our Christian faith. One must ask, why? The answer to this can be many, but one simple truth is the Media represents everything opposite of Christianity. Hollywood has become the promotion of the antithesis of the Family, marriage, church, God and morality. Why would any media establishment want to create a series that costs hundreds of millions of dollars that attempts to create a filthy portrayal of Christianity unless their purpose is to attack Christianity.

Not only do I abhor this “rot” but I also call on everyone to slam it, expose it for its true intention and FB, Tweet, etc. your voice against this kind of slander against Christianity. Write ABC and Disney World and demand they cancel this filth as well as write, call their sponsors and demand this series be taken off. Disney World (owner of ABC) is supposed to be a “Family” park. If enough people contacted Disney and ABC and voice your disgust for their Attack on Christianity, they would cancel this show to save their pocket book.

SAFTY OR TICKET SCAM?

According to AOL, (Mar 6, 2012) their Autos Staff wrote that “Every day, law enforcement hands out an estimated 100,000 tickets to American motorists, resulting in about $6 billion in fines annually. According to a recent report from Trapster and CNBC.com, it seems a large portion of these tickets come from 10 metropolitan areas.”

For more than five decades, many national community advocates have complained that the “speeding violations” (tickets) are more about scamming the public of their hard earned money than it is about “safety.” More and more advocates these days are questioning the excessive money laundering from the common working public.

“I had to pay $250 for a speeding ticket that I got for just going seven (7) miles per hour over the speeding limit. I tried to reason with the officer but he was having nothing to do with it” said Robert B of Georgia. Literally hundreds of thousands of letters, emails and phone messages come into our offices all across America just like Robert B.

Many social scientist and activist have questioned the statistic reports from the government concerning the true number of accidents due to minimal speed variations. “The numbers we have tried to verify were greatly exaggerated” wrote one anonymous specialist. It is not my assertion that speeding is an accepted thing and that we should not worry about law breakers and reckless driving. However, most everyone would tell you that only a very small percentage of the “so called” speeding violations are excessive. So then, is the hundreds of thousands of speed traps set up to “save lives” or simply to fleece the public of their hard earned money? You chose

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

Imagine you are walking the beach in some beautiful secluded spot and came upon what looked like a small vase or some kind of tea pot. You pick it up and rub off the grim and “Poof” out popped a – yes a Genie. And she indeed asks you; “What is your wish that I may grant it you?” Now think past the long history of this fairytale and take a moment to answer it for real. What really would you ask for?
Wow – this is a mind bender for over 90% of American people. Contrary to popular opinion, most would not just rattle off the precise item, venture or long life dream. Studies have revealed that far too many would knee-jerk answers like, “I want $1 Million dollars” with no thought of the more than 95% of those who win such amount in a lottery blow through it in less than a year. And sad, after they blow through their $million, they are worse off afterwards than they were before they “won” the cash.
As the studies have it, many (most married) wish for a “hot chick” or “man” of their dreams. Such requests are void of the reality of not being in the good health both financially or physically to “keep” such a “hot” woman or man. Others quickly wish for a “big house on the ocean” without the knowledge of the $50,000 a year in taxes, insurance and maintenance such a house would cost (at minimum).
It doesn’t take long to read through the hundreds of “wishes” to the imaginary genie such university studies have exposed to realize that more than 90% of Americans DO NOT KNOW what they really want in life or from life. The proof of such bewilderment from most Western civilizations is sadly evidenced by what we have done with our time, energy, resources, relationships and life thus far.
Let me give you a few things to ponder in making a list to help you prepare for your beach walk experience when your genie arrives. Ultimately all humans are searching for happiness. We all want to be happy and fulfilled in life on a daily bases. Everybody wants to have good healthy relationships where they can receive and give love. We all want friends and family members to share our happiness with. Everyone desires to have peace of mind, contentment and spiritual tranquility that can only come from faith in God. And literally everyone knows that without the financial or resource means to obtain, maintain, and secure such healthy aspirations, none of us can reach our goals.
In short, most everyone desires reside within the subjects of Faith, Family, Friends, Finance and Future. With this simple story and challenge, allow me to inspire you to sit down NOW and begin drafting your “WISH” of a life time. Take time today and write your thoughts down of YOUR goals in life. What is it exactly that YOU WANT?
