Do you really believe flea farts can change the temperature of the dog? A satirical dissertation on Global Warming.
* * *
“Hey Al, when do I start seeing return benefits from all this effort to save the dog?” asked JQ Flea when they next crossed paths at another fundraiser.
“Are you kidding?” replied Al-Flea, “It is not all about you!”
“This is a fragile Dog we live on; it can’t possibly support a luxurious life for every flea! You must sacrifice for your children; It’s a ‘Take one for the team’ kinda thing.’”
“But I have been!" cried JQ, "My family is cold all winter, I smell bad, I read in the dark, I eat grass… My life sucks!”
“I know your suffering; Nobody said it would be easy, but you have to keep your eye on the big picture; you are saving the Dog!” encouraged Al-Flea.
“By the way, I noticed you are still using oil to heat with, I think your gonna need more carbon credits. It’s a good thing I have some right here I can sell you.”
“You’re the best Al.”
“I know.”

Flea Farts - episode #4
Post 040
Do you really believe that flea farts can change the temperature of the dog? A satirical dissertation on Global Warming.

After an environmental summit, our previously un-named flea, meets up with Al-Flea:
“Tell me Al-Flea, how come you always look so fresh and smell so good? You don’t shower and wash your cloths every day do you?” Questioned John Q.
“Uh… Of course not JQ.” Responded Al-Flea, "That would be irresponsible to the dog." “I guess it's because I only eat vegetables to avoid supporting the flatulence from the meat production industry.”
Looking confused, our friend JQ Public objected; “But I see you every day at Burger King!”
“Ya, whatever, my point is that you are doing great!” Replied Al-Flea with a warm smile, “By the way, I notice you are still driving that gas powered Tick, do you need to buy anymore carbon credits? I am planning a family trip, on my private Fly, to our condo at the tail.”
“Since you brought it up, I guess I do” sighed JQ.

A Christian Nation?
Post 039
It has come to my attention that there is a group of Americans who argue that America is not, nor ever was a Christian nation.
This is a very significant point that if true, would affect everything including the solution to fix America.
This argument deserves a serious investigation because of the foundational importance.
This issue is very much like meeting an attractive girl that you hit it off with, then having a stranger declare; "that is not a woman."
The discovery of the truth in this matter is the very foundation of all that will come after!
I am not making any kind of statement about gender preference in dating, but you must agree that the knowledge of the truth is necessary in order to make a wise decision.
If America was not created on the principles of Christianity, Then it was not Christian principles that made America successful. It would be necessary to look elsewhere for the cause of it's greatness.
Do we agree?
But If America was actually created subject to the God of Christianity, then we can be sure that this Christianity was indeed what made it great.
That is simple reasoning.
Ok, the next point that we need to get into the open, is that of course we know that to call America's foundation Christian or not, does not suggest that every single person was Christian or not accordingly.
Either view, declaring their opinion on America's foundational principles, are not suggesting it was 100% in agreement.
OK, Me first:
1) Nearly all the Laws of our constitution, and the form of king-less government, where the common citizen is sovereign, comes right out of the Holy Bible (*1).
2) An educated walk through the Capital of The United States shows unquestionable proof that our founders were Christian and intended that America be subject to the God of Christianity (*2).
3) The writings of our founders were prolific concerning their Christian principles (*3).
4) Many of our government buildings in Washington DC have carved marble walls with Bible verses and the 10 commandments, as well as stone biblical figures like Moses over the Supreme Court building.
5) If you think other religions were influential in the founding of this nation, show me their influence in the constitution.
Ok, your turn now. Show me your evidence that America was not founded on Christianity.

Mr. Barton has done some very deep research and I highly recommend his stuff. you will note I often use DVDs as my resource material, this is not because they are all I have, but because most people will watch a movie sooner than read a book. Wallbuilders.com has a fine selection of books that go even deeper than the DVDs, but the DVDs are excellent and well worth the time.
