I’m not going to provide that info, nor her address, which WAS on the envelope. For the record, the address is about 1 mile from my house. Ignorance is bliss and knowledge is power.

Notice it's not written in cursif, it's hand printed. They haven't taught cursif in school for years, modern kids can't even read it. This would be a mystery to them.  If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I dont respect it and suspect it's more recruitment to grow that denomination then to save somebody True story I was at london bridge last week just wandering around. I came across public park benches On these benches were small piles of stones with written inscriptions. Some were simple like "saved" . Some contained lines of scripture in small beautiful hand writing. They were beautiful and I could see these in a gift shop but instead were on a park bench for free. I look over and I see a lady taking stones out of a bag. So I spoke to her. This is her unique and special way of simply spreading the Good News. I really love this. I have pictures of the stones on my facebook page. Also have a pic of the lady. She gave me permission to take her pic.

You wouldn't be able to read mine. They probably haven't taught it because it's a useless ability, unless you're a doctor or medical professional. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |
