Another Phony E-mail:

******************************************************

Read all of this one, it is interesting!! Read down to the very bottom highlighted in green, you don't want to miss this!

VERY INTERESTING-

1. The Garden of Eden was in Iraq.

2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization!

3. Noah built the ark in Iraq.

4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq

5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq!

6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq!

7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq.

8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq.

9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel.

10. Amos cried out in Iraq!

11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem.

12. Daniel was! in the lion's den in Iraq!

13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq also as the fourth person in the Fiery furnace!)

14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the "writing on the wall" in Iraq.

15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq.

16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq.

17. The wise men were from Iraq

18. Peter preached in Iraq.

19. The "Empire of Man" described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was a city in Iraq!

And you have probably seen this one. Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is Iraq! However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible The names used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar, and Mesopotamia The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The name Iraq, means country with deep roots.

Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible.

No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated it than Iraq.

And also, This is something to think about! Since America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...

The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)

Koran (9:11 ) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?!

********************************************

The Qur'an Verse 9:11 reads:

"But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communications clear for a people who know."

The E-mail is accurate until:

Green I'm in agreement your the approach to the natural/herbal debate. My son gets so irritated when he reads something boasting its' "organic" qualities. He argues that almost everything is organic, so what does that really tell us and why should we pay more for it.

I said something similar in an earlier post about us Cowboys being in Iraq. The real shame and pity of it, besides the financial cost to America and the depletion of our military "defense" forces, is the cost of American lives! Can you believe that this administration can and did send real live people over there, watch them die, bring them home in caskets, and with a straight face, tell Americans that it is to liberate the Iraqi people? I mentioned the same thing about No. Koreans and South Africans. Where is BuSh when they need him?

As far as the Swiffer products, I hate to further the cause of lining Procter & Gamble's pockets, but I have to tell you that as far as I'm concerned the Swiffer Duster is the best invention since plantation shutters!!!

OOHH, I'm a little slow sometimes! Gotcha.

I like to put little hidden meanings into many things that I write. Some are more obvious than others.

When some products are labeled organic, it means no chemical fertilizer and no chemical pesticides were used on those plant products while growing or that the meat was taking from animals that were fed by grain that was grown that way.

We have to trade some things for others. More people get cancer and many other life threatening diseases now in their 50's, 60's and 70's. But many people never made it to 50 years of age, four or five generations ago. We could argue until the cows come home about chemicals in our food supply. Some are good when used properly. Some are abused by farmers who figure if this much is good, 4 times that much is 4 times better. Of course the toxicity will increase that way. And some chemicals, it turns out, should never have been used, but sometimes it's the long term effects that no one could have known about. Sometimes, though, the chemical's manufacturer knew of the problem but pushed it out anyway.

Mushrooms are natural, but some can kill you. Marijuana is natural and I'll leave it up to you to decide if that makes it safe. Tobago is natural and alcohol does not require chemicals for distilling, so it is natural too. Beef is natural, as is apple pie and ice cream, but look how much fat we have acquired from eating them.

I have to admit that I am deeply in love with the Swiffer Duster thingy and I like their floor washing gadget - the WetJet - a lot. Sometimes I think I live at the bottom of a dust bowl. Hooray for Swiffer!

Didn't you hear that the chemical in the Swiffter mop that gives it its special properties is a carcinogen?

Joke

Well, Green smokes and she isn't very clean....

*not exactly a joke

The son's point is, T.O.M. that just because something is labeled "organic" doesn't necessarily mean that it was grown without toxic chemicals. If it is without toxic chemicals (assuming that all chemicals are toxic) it will say so on the label. I mean for someone who nitpicks, I'm surprised you were willing to generalize on this one. I just can't seem to join in this game successfully. joke.

Hurrah for fags (cigarettes), swiffer dusters and swiffer mops. I don't smoke anymore but would love to, very much. Cigarettes and other... sigh. no joke.

It is hard to express humor in some of these posts. I know I am not sure when someone is teasing, so I can understand when someone doesn't understand when I am teasing.

About organic foods, There is a 554 page government guideline for Organic foods. I have to admit, I did not read it and I am going on what I have heard about organic foods.
