Bits,Pieces,Tuesday 4

Each week, Toni supplies 4 questions to answer on your blog.
You can click her logo to join in.

Just Bits And Pieces is her title this week and that makes me think of the Dave Clark Five's song Bits and Pieces.
On with the questions.
1.   What is one quote that you love to quote?
"What has been will be again,
    what has been done will be done again;
    there is nothing new under the sun." King Solomon.  
We don't live in the worst times in the history of the earth, not at all and I get tired of people trying to say we live in the worst of times since the beginning.  Plenty of proof out there that that just is not so. There were times when things were far worse. History, weather, catastrophes, all of it come in waves of ups and downs.

2.   Do you ever at times see the world in black and white?
I never thought about it really and not sure what this really means. If it means do I see good and evil, yes I do and the line between them is very stark.

3.   What is something that you never want to do again?
Write parody or a  written caricature that can hurt someone's feelings. I have never in my life deliberately tried to hurt someone but long ago I did through a caricature I wrote and so I can't do them anymore at all.

4.   Do you believe there is life somewhere else in the universe?
No. God created life here and here only. There is other life, but it is spiritual and not to be interacted with as it was before the flood. There is too much about the creation of earth and the reason for it and the ultimate goal for humans for there to be life anywhere else.
Wernher Von Braun told his assistant Carol Rosin:

" first the Russians are going to be considered to be the enemy. In fact, in 1974, they were the enemy, the identified enemy. We were told that they had “killer satellites.” We were told that they were coming to get us and control us – that they were “Commies.”


Then terrorists would be identified, and that was soon to follow. We heard a lot about terrorism. Then we were going to identify third-world country “crazies.” We now call them Nations of Concern. But he said that would be the third enemy against whom we would build space-based weapons.

The next enemy was asteroids. Now, at this point he kind of chuckled the first time he said it. Asteroids – against asteroids we are going to build space-based weapons.


“And remember Carol, the last card is the alien card. We are going to have to build space-based weapons against aliens and all of it is a lie.

Well, there you have it and another Tuesday 4 passes into the great archival hall of Blogger.
Have a lovely day friends.

  2. I must agree with Toni. YOU a re a really deep thinker, almost a philosopher which makes reading your posts so delightful... I am a pretty superficial thinker unless Im digging into scripture, so I really can't wait to read your posts to see what I missed... I know it is because of the amazing books you read..and you do not sully your mind with lots of tv and things of the world I think that is wonderful!
