Here is a video of an attempt to drop a 275-foot smoke stack in Ohio in the right direction. Kids ran, screaming. No one hurt. Lights went out. Adults blushed. 10…9…8…7…6…5…4… Quick observations include this: 1. The CHILD had the most sense among all of the people when she had the sense to turn and run and yell to the ‘grown-ups’, “RUN!” 2. Check out the last worker to make a dash for it and how much she delayed to the very end! File Under: The best-laid plans of mice and men oft go astray.
“You can’t stop it. Coming to a town near you….” This video parody would be be funnier if it didn’t get so close to the matter of what, tragically, is going on in so many Christian churches across much of America and the western world today. “We call it… ‘Contemporvant.’” “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires and will turn away their ears from the truth, and will turn aside to myths.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4 [NAS] Many seekers and professed Christians are presenting themselves in “modern” or “mega” churches needing to be fed the Gospel message and are going away hungry, lost.

Video: Vermont gubernatorial candidate Peter Shumlin (D) poorly executes his lame attempt at a surprise visit on the headquarters of challenger Brian Dubie (R) prior to a scheduled broadcast debate nearby.
