Parable of the Drowning Man Prayer is Laziness (Unless....) Thoughts and Prayers Don't Build Wells - Hard Work and Money Does By Adam Mundorf Parable of the Drowning Man There is a story that is often told in churches about a man who prays to God to save him from floods.  He has offers from people in rowboats and helicopters to get him saved from the flood.  He refuses each one and says God will save him.  He eventually drowns in the water and goes to heaven.  He asks God : "Why didn't you save me?"  God said : "I tried!  I sent you rowboats and helicopters to save you but you turned each one down."   The moral of the story is that God helps those who help themselves.  How selfish is it to wish for change but not get to work with your own two hands.  What makes you deserving of handouts when you put forth no effort yourself?

I Love the Supreme Courts Decisions Toe the Line - Right to Refuse - Abortion - Affirmative Action - Harmful Cultures - Quote from Swami By Adam Mundorf I Love the Supreme Courts Decisions Man, call me a bigot but I love each and everyone of the supreme court's recent decisions.  I'll explain my viewpoints in the following paragraphs.  Hopefully, I can change your mind about something or you may already hold my viewpoints.  I have found that privately people agree but publicly they wouldn't dare, for free of retribution.  If we as Americans, can't hold opposing views and still be civil, what hope do we have of progress?  Anywho, enjoy the following.... Toe the Line Wake up and smell the roses.  I have no fear, no anxiety and never look over my shoulder.  Why do you ask?  I toe the line.  I pay my taxes.  I follow the rules.  I follow the laws.  I follow the rules and laws while expecting everybody else to do the same. Life is e...
