What are Politics?
A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What are Politics?" Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
#1. I'm the head of the family, so call me The President.
#2. Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
#3. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the People.
#4. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class.
#5. And your baby brother, we'll call him the Future.
"Now, think about that and see if it makes sense."
So, the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said.
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.
So, the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he looks in t he peephole and finds his father in bed with the Nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now."
The father says, "Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about."
The little boy replies, "The President is screwing the Working Class, while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep ****."

Well here's also some more of the corrupt politics of
Bribe and Groom
During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer:
"Look, I'll give you $100 if you'll change the wedding vows. When you get to the part where I'm supposed to promise to ''love, honor and obey'' and ''be faithful to her forever,'' I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave that out."
He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied. On the day of the wedding, when it came time for the groom's vows, the pastor looked the young man in the eye and said:
"Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life, and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?"
The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, "Yes," then leaned toward the pastor and hissed: "I thought we had a deal."
The pastor put a $100 bill into the groom's hand and whispered: "She made me a better offer."

Santafara,
I’m no politician. I’m only a sometimes funny Banataba.
Well you only want me to watch that Movie ” Gone With the Wind” with Clark Gable as Rhett Butler and Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara a few more times.
http://www.franklymydear.com/
Whereas I got what’s written down below a couple of days ago from Cyril, an old school friend from Sierra Leone, and I don’t know if he’s thinking of me joining Saddam Hussein in the near future, when he ought to know that time is in God’s hand. Anyway, it got me to thinking the opposite of John Donne’s “Death be not proud” and he ought to know that Jesus loves me. Mind you, when John Donne was dying he called for the priest.....
http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/minstrels/poems/796.html
I’ll tell him not to stop sending me any more of his Christmas cards in future. He should know the 23rd Psalm - THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD
I wonder what you think about the president of Brazil)? THis is the meassage he sent - and it would terrify politicians in particular:
THis was his message :
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT DEATH
Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death! Make a personal
reflection about this. Very interesting, read until the end.
It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7): "Be not deceived; God is not
mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Here are some men and women who mocked God:
JOHN LENNON: Some years before, during his interview with an American
Magazine, he said: "Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have
to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too
simple, today we are more famous than Him" (1966). Lennon, after saying that
the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.
TANCREDO NEVES (President of Brazil ): During the Presidential campaign, he
said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him
from Presidency. Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being
made President, then he died.
CAZUZA (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet): During a show in
Canecoo ( Rio de Janeiro ), whilst smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some
smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you." He died at the age of
32 of AIDS in a horrible manner.
THE MAN WHO BUILT THE TITANIC: After the construction of the Titanic, a
reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he
said: "Not even God can sink it" The result: I think you all know what
happened to the Titanic.
MARILYN MONROE: She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a
show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After
hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". A
week later, she was found dead in her apartment.
BON SCOTT: The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:
"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell". On
the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by
his own vomit.
CAMPINAS/SP IN 2005: In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to
pick up a friend The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried
about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter - holding
her hand, who was already seated in the car: "MY DAUGHTER, GO WITH GOD AND
MAY HE PROTECT YOU."
She responded: "ONLY IF HE(GOD)
came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,
the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but
surprisingly, the trunk was intact. The police said there was no way the
trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a
crate of eggs, none were broken.
Christine Hewitt: A Jamaican Journalist and entertainer, said the Bible
(Word of God) was the worst book ever written, in June 2006 she was found
burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.
Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that
was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only
Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive.
JESUS!!!
P.S: If it was a joke, you would have sent it to everyone. So are you going
to have courage to send this? I have done my part, Jesus said "If you are
embarrassed about me, I will also be embarrassed about you before my father"
"What benefit does it have, if a man gains the whole world but loses his
soul? What can man give in exchange of his soul?" (Matthew 16:26).
AMEN

coni. since you know islam stand point on jesus i don't need to dwell too much into him being God.
we as muslims take him as a mythy messenger of god and he was the promised messier for the jews .he was born by a virgin withou any male intervention. he lived and was raise up alive. we as muslims believed that jesus never died on the cross. even many christian believe that jesus did not die on the cross.
but god ,jesus is not god . i believe in a god that will not change form or do ungodly things . god is unique nd completely different from humans in every way.
on the issue of people getting killed by denying god ,well that is true. but some times god leave many to change their views because human beings are not consistent in all things ,we are affected by circomstance and environment .so a slight change in that flip we change. public denounciation of god was done by many philosopher and they are still alive .god wait for them ,their journey will end some were .he is never in a hurry to met them. |
