Boy! You musta been sick that Sunday that this was preached about! And I've never read a more unloving post from you. Jesus is weeping.

[jlisenbe]

I really wish you would stop resorting to these two strategies.

1. Silly generalities. "You musta been sick that Sunday this was preached." Just meaningless words.
2. You make hateful comments, frequently complaining about supposedly hateful comments from me. So you are complaining about the very thing you are engaging in. "I've never read a more unloving post from you. Jesus is weeping." It just seems to be a judgmental attitude, does it not?

Is that the same Jesus you failed to mention in your description of heaven?

[Wondergirl]

I'll get there before you (probably) and will be waiting for you with kittens in my lap and Jesus standing behind me, hands on my shoulders, smiling broadly.

[jlisenbe]

I hope that is true.

[Wondergirl]

I hope that is true.

I'm betting Heaven is going to be a lot different from what you're thinking it will be.

[jlisenbe]

I think it will the saints of God joyfully basking in his presence for all of time.

[Wondergirl]

I think it will the saints of God joyfully basking in his presence for all of time.

Nope. I think God will have more for us to do than bask.

[jlisenbe]

Perhaps that is because you do not know his presence.

[Wondergirl]

Perhaps that is because you do not know his presence.

He and I are best friends and have private conversations throughout the day. His presence becomes my presents.

[jlisenbe]

Strange that you would place so little value on being with him for all of time. It seems to be more about petting cats and dogs.

[Wondergirl]

Do you have even a clue as to what Heaven will be like? Jesus has better ideas for us to do than just idly (or better, idoly?) "basking".

[jlisenbe]

If you think what I am describing is "just idly basking", then you don't appreciate His presence.

[Wondergirl]

His presence will be with us so much more than that.

[jlisenbe]

Then it's surprising that you are so caught up with petting cats and dogs, isn't it?

[Wondergirl]

And riding horses and milking cows and shearing sheep and hugging baby goats -- and hanging out with people of all nationalities and religions and races and from the LGBTQ+ community.

[jlisenbe]

We'll see.

A homeless man got himself a crowbar in San Fran. He took a bunch of practice swings and then proceeded to bash in the head of former Fire Commissioner Don Carmignani.
There was probably a confrontation that proceeded the assault . The homeless man ;Garrett Doty was living outside Don Carmignani's mother's home. Defending himself he did use pepper spray.

Because Don Carmignani defended himself, the San Fran prosecutors decided to not charge Doty even though they have the video of him taking the practice swings.

Even more bizarre is that Carmignani himself may be charged because he defended himself.
The prosecutors failed to interview Carmignani before dropping the charges.

Yet another example of why we need to outlaw crowbar ownership, and especially the military style assault crowbars.

2 Hotel; Chains Hilton and Standard Park Hotels &Resorts, are stopping mortgage payments, foreclosing, and leaving downtown San Fran. No one goes there because of the crime . Revenue dropped from $175 million and $90 million in 2019 to $30 million each . Standard Park hotels estimates saving $200 million in the next 5 years by closing down there .
They would not be doing this if they felt there was any path for the city to recover.
