Abolish Federal Reserve Act The Federal Reserve refers to the rate at which private banks borrow money from each other or from the Federal Reserve in order to meet their reserve requirements for making loans, set 10 cents in reserve for every dollar they loan. By lowering the rate to zero, the Feds are essentially handing out free money to bankers, saying: Take this bag of cash. Use it for loans or whatever you want, it doesn't matter what interest rate you charge; you're guaranteed a profit. The Feds are only interested in ensuring the future of the current system of debt - and the profits of its fellow private bankers. ...more

Whoa, whoa, stop! "Modern Christianity Out Of Step With Jesus' Teachings" was the headline of an article by columnist Leonard Pitts of the Miami Herald that ran on the editorial page of Highlands Today, Wednesday, April 30. This is outright blatantly inaccurate. Apparently, Mr. Pitts is blind to hundreds of thousands of churches through out this country that preach just the opposite, and thank God for that, Mr. Pitts. Since when did Christianity proclaim a modern version? True Christians believe in Christ's word, as stated in the Gospels of the New Testament, however, many folks would like to believe otherwise since it makes sinning a lot easier. There is only one version for today, tomorrow, and always, as written in Holy Scripture of the Bible. Did Jesus acknowledge so called barriers? You bet! Go to John 3:3, John 3:16-18, Luke 17:1-3 and Matthew 12: 31-32. I find these as barriers that can be overcome by all who acknowledge and believe in Him as it is written. Comparing slavery to gay rights? No comparison. Slavery of human kind is against God's will to the highest degree. Homosexuality is a sin, period. To say otherwise is condoning sin of the body and mind which is Gods temple. Jews were in slavery and persecuted until death for hundreds of years in history and today are still fighting for their rights in Israel. No, Mr. Pitts, you and pastors like the controversial Jeremiah Wright and James Lawson make up a good threesome of men who should be thankful to God for their very successful existence in America. Thank God for His blessings upon you. ...more
