The freedom of speech....
...or the lack thereof. I just got done reading this book 'On Every Side' (by Karen Kingsbury in case ur wondering) which was pretty good - the main theme of it was about religious freedom/freedom of speech...I didnt realise it was so bad in the States. The book was based on a true event about this human rights organisation wanting a statue of Jesus taken down b/c it was in this public park in this town. For a country that prides itself on its freedom of speech and religious freedom, they are very biased towards Christianity...especially when the founding people of their country were Christians themselves ironically. We dont know how good we have it *so far* in NZ....we need to make the most of it (even if we are becoming more PC by the day). Because like the saying goes 'you don't know what you've got until its gone'.Which brings me to my next topic.
The events of the past 24hrs are pretty shocking albeit not quite as shocking as 9/11 was tho...that took everyone by surprise...even so my prayers are with those in London at the mo...that God will create something good outta this.

Hey, kiwi friend!
aloha! it's your buddy Jim (bandjock97). I'm glad you can see what no one outside of Christianity will admit in the States. There truly is one religion still persecuted: us. Take care, lil sis
