My American Studies class has finally reached the "Roaring 20's"! The twenties sure parallel the late 20th and early 21st century. Women have entered the work force, increased demand for "labor-saving" devices, huge credit spending sprees, a stock market that won't quit, everybody is following the eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we die philosophy. That awful Monday in October came when Groucho Marx lost everything followed by another drop and then another drop and the world crashed. Wow, sounds like recent American history.
Do evolutionists study history? I thought that if we were evolving we might get a little brighter along the way. It sure seems, after teaching history for a year or two, that we are no different then the people who were around ten thousand years ago. We follow the same patterns of greed and self-destructive behaviors that people have followed forever.
Read, Dinner With A Perfect Stranger. Excellent book. Buy it on e-bay, buy two and give one away. Remember our Lord this Friday (remember Him each day but particularly this Friday) and give thanks on Sunday. We can have confidence. No other religion provides this confidence. Other religions tell you do good things and you might be rewarded. Jesus asks you to enter into a relationship with Him and eternity awaits. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
