Does anyone have any respect for the public servants in office and
courts who allow this? Don't they think it is dangerous when you start
creating a society where the citizens you are supposed to serve wanna
kill ya? Makes you wonder what they are thinking, doesn't it?

Warmest regards,
John

little something from an old friend in the UK. we had been back and
forth about the new
road use tax in the UK. and how it would be sure to spread to the USA
when that loser
gang in DC figures how they can make money off it. (and screw the
regular people). she
is a wonderful lady, and a real Christian in the good sense. thought
you
might want to
read what she just emailed me today. wondering what you think of this?
and the short
connection is i heard this on the beeb last week. "from bad to
worse"....

Drifter,

Yeah, the British government is considering scrapping fuel tax and
replacing
it with a new road charge based on the distance and time motorists
travel.
And now they want to remove Bibles from hospitals (see attachment),
and
now
a crucifix has been taken down at Newham General Hospital's chapel in
East
London. Instead, there was a bowl used by Muslim worshippers to wash
their
feet before they pray. This last stunt was reported in the Daily
Express on
Saturday, June 4. Please pass this information on to anyone you know.
If
it's happening here, it will most likely happen in the United States
(if
it's not already happening). Christians cannot let this sort of thing
happen. The move by the hospital was condemned by the Evangelical
Alliance
last night (the article continues). General Director Joel Edwards
said:
"It's particularly hard to understand - bemusing - as other faiths
have
never shown or expressed any disquiet about the presence of Christian
literature and specifically the Bible being on display. In a
multi-faith
society we have a responsibility to ensure that people of all faiths
have
room to express their faith. But to do this to the exclusion of
Christian
faith is not only absurd but is ludicrously unequal."
