Anti-Christian PBS is at it again. On their Nova program they are presenting a "documentary" called "The Bible's Buried Secrets".  American Family Association (AFA) is requesting that all concerned sign a petition to end tax-payer support of the network:

Quote
The Public Broadcasting System (PBS), probably the most liberal network in America, will present a program this fall that says the Old Testament is a bunch of made-up stories that never happened. "The Bible's Buried Secrets" says the Bible is not true. It is scheduled to air on November 18.

Producer Paula Apsell said: "...It's (The Bible's Buried Secrets) designed for intelligent people who are willing to change their mind. …it will give intelligent people who want to read the Bible in a modern way a chance. If we insist on reading the Bible literally, in 25 years, nobody will read it any longer."

Among highlights of "The Bible's Buried Secrets":

• The Old Testament was written in the sixth century BC and hundreds of authors contributed.
• Abraham, Sarah and their offspring didn't exist.
• There is no archaeological evidence of the Exodus.
• Monotheism was a process that took hundreds of years.
• The Israelites were actually Canaanites.
• The Israelites believed that God had a wife.

I have often said that PBS should not receive tax dollars. "The Bible's Buried Secrets" is simply one more reason Congress should stop supporting PBS with our tax dollars. Congress gives PBS hundreds of millions of tax dollars to help support the network.

My entire family has already signed the petition. I encourage all of you to do the same.

Hello Pastor Roger,

Brother, I haven't seen this petition yet. I will definitely sign it. It's very sad when taxpayer dollars are used to attack the core and foundation of this country. This is yet another example of self-destruct mode and turning away from GOD.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Here is an article that I recieved via email:

Hello GrammyLuv,

Thanks for the link. I just added two more signatures to the petition and will pass things around to friend and family. By the way, the American Family Association (AFA) is excellent. We see them in Christian News almost every day. I give thanks they are still going strong.

Love In Christ,
Tom



Famous Christian Quotes 32 - In CONGRESS, SATURDAY, March 16, 1776. IN
times of impending calamity and distress; when the Liberties of
America are imminently endangered by the secret machinations and open
assaults of an insidious and vindictive Administration, it becomes the
indispensible duty of these hitherto free and happy Colonies, with
true penitence of heart, and the most reverent devotion, publickly to
acknowledge the over ruling providence of God; to confess and deplore
our offences against him; and to supplicate his interposition for
averting the threatened danger, and prospering our strenuous efforts
in the cause of Freedom, Virtue and Posterity. The Congress therefore,
considering the warlike preparations of the British Ministry to
subvert our invaluable rights and privileges, and to reduce us by fire
and sword, by the savages of the wilderness and our own domestics, to
the most abject and ignominious bondage: Desirous, at the same time,
to have people of all ranks and degrees, duly impressed with a solemn
knowledge of God's superintending providence, and of their duty
devoutly to rely in all their lawful enterprizes of his aid and
direction -- do earnestly recommend, that FRIDAY, the seventeenth day
of May next, be observed by the said Colonies as a day of HUMILIATION,
FASTING, and PRAYER; that we may with united hearts confess and bewail
our manifold sins and transgressions, and by a sincere, repentance and
amendment of life, appease his righteous displeasure and through the
merits and mediation of Jesus Christ, obtain his pardon and
forgiveness; humbly imploring his assistance to frustrate the cruel
purposes of our unnatural enemies; and by inclining their hearts to
justice and benevolence, prevent the further effusion of kindred
blood. But if continuing deaf to the voice of reason and humanity, and
inflexibly bent on desolation and war, they constrain us to repel
their hostile invasions by open resistance, it may please the Lord of
Hosts, the God of Armies, to animate our Officers and Soldiers with
invincible power to guard and protect them in the day of battle, and
to crown the Continental arms by sea and land with victory and
success: Earnestly beseeching him to bless our civil Rulers and the
Representatives of the People in their several Assemblies and
Conventions; to preserve and strengthen their Union, to inspire them
with an ardent disinterested love of their Country; to give wisdom and
stability to their Councils; and direct them to the most efficacious
measures for establishing the Rights of America on the most honorable
and permanent basis -- that he would be graciously pleased to bless
all his People in these Colonies with Health and Plenty, and grant
that a spirit of incorruptible Patriotism and of pure undefiled
Religion may unversally prevail; and this Continent be speedily
restored to the blessings of Peace and Liberty, and enabled to
transmit them inviolate to the latest Posterity. And it is recommended
to Christians of all denominations to assemble for Public Worship, and
abstain from servile Labour on the said Day. -- By Order of Congress
(America)

Hi Guys!  I removed the link per Forum rules and guidelines.  I'm glad that BEP was able to sign it and anyone else interested can find it.  I do encourage all of us to sign however.  United we stand, divided we fall and all that!

PR, I got the notice in my regular email or I may not have seen it until later as I'm doing seveal things on this, my day off!  WhooHoo! (girlie stuff, like sewing!) Thank you.  Looks like you have my email address and please use it ANY time you like. Grin

Okay....back to my machine...I'm making curtains for a friend at work who has a boat!  Wonder if I'll get to go out on it?....probably, after all the repairs and redoing is done!  Maybe next summer, if we haven't all gone home by then~

Later guys....

I just sent you a PM which moderators still can use. The forum automatically sent it to your email address.

That only sounds right to me.  Grin

Hello GrammyLuv,

AFA is a regular in the Official News distributed around the world by Christians Unite. I wouldn't be surprised to see this same thing coming through official channels.

By the way, if you need help on the sewing, decorating, and color selection - remember that I'm a graduate of the Three Stooges Interior Design School.   Grin  I would show you samples of my work, but I got death threats the last time I did that. There was also a rash of men sewing the wrong things together and emergency room visits. I do make things simple with color choices, and what I recommend is nearly always on SALE for some reason. I only work with orange, purple, and pea-green. It's amazing how these colors will brighten up a room, and they nearly always start conversations. By the way, these same colors work great on the outside, and the paint is much cheaper in just about any brand.   Grin

Hello Grammyluv,

Sister, I think that someone we know got loose with a graphics program. I'm almost sure that the same person did this one.


I think that I have other work from this same unknown person with the initials of Brother Bob.   Grin   Here's another example.
