Shanktified!

So I am reading this:

Matthew 21:9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

Mathew Henry’s Concise Commentary (free e-sword plug-in) had this thought:

But of how little value is the applause of the people! The changing multitude join the cry of the day, whether it be Hosanna, or Crucify him. Multitudes often seem to approve the gospel, but few become consistent disciples.

True.

Alito rejected abortion as a right – Nation/Politics – The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper
Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr., President Bush’s Supreme Court nominee, wrote that “the Constitution does not protect a right to an abortion” in a 1985 document obtained by The Washington Times.
“I personally believe very strongly” in this legal position, Mr. Alito wrote on his application to become deputy assistant to Attorney General Edwin I. Meese III.
The document, which is likely to inflame liberals who oppose Judge Alito’s nomination to the Supreme Court, is among many that the White House will release today from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.

Congrats Daddy Vance (and you too Ashley) on the new baby! May he sleep through the night every night (and Ashley, when Walker doesn’t, you know Vance will take care of it, because he’ll be working on the blog anyway)

Unreal.

No charges expected against rabbi
Despite the impression left by the report, though, Kaye does not appear to be in legal jeopardy. A spokesperson for the Fairfax County Police Department said Monday that the department does not anticipate filing any charges against Kaye or many of the other men identified as potential predators in the NBC broadcast.

Officer Bud Walker, public spokesperson, said that while it is a felony in Virginia to use the Internet to solicit sex with a minor, the commonwealth would not have jurisdiction in Kaye’s case.

Tonight at 7 Eastern/6 Central, MSNBC is reairing the Dateline Predator Special [transcript and clips here]. Be sure and record this and consider showing this to your age appropriate children.

This is something all parents must see.

NOTE: None of the men in this study have been arrested.

Let me also take this chance to remind you, all parents need a filter. I recommend BSafe Online (rated number 1 by America’s Top Christian Men’s Mag. and faster and easier than McAfee and Norton by an independent study)

Other important things to remember:

1. No Internet Access in the bedroom. Keep your PC in a common room.
2. Never let kids in a chat room – not even Christian Chat (Christian kids are targeted because they more naive)
3. Don’t let them fill out an online profile – it’s like bait to predators
4. Limit instant messaging to friends they actually know already
5. And talk to your kids about this stuff and what may already have happened – you may be shocked.
