I refuse to discuss the tragedy any longer, however what I would like to discuss is the way in which televangelists seemingly enjoy using trajedies as a way to obtain higher ratings, and lash out against those whose lifestyles they disagree with. Despite their belief, God is not giving us what we deserve for not having the proper morals. You may believe that God has turned against America, well genteleman America is turning against you. It is you Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell who have the improper morals. You are both money hungry and filled with hatred. If you were true Christians you would give more of your "hard-earned" money to charity and those who need it instead of building luxorious mansions and driving fancy automobiles. If asked, I am sure you would say that God told them to build those houses and drive thoser cars. He didn't. That was their greed talking to them, and their lack of reality convincing them that the voices they hear make them prophets as oppossed to individuals in need of medical attention. I am confident that their ministries will crumble like the Towers of Babylon. They will deserve it. Being a minister or going to church does not make you a Christian. Treating your fellow human beings with respect and kindness and living a non-selfish lifestyle are two of the characteristics most people I consider Christians hold. People like Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell do not deserve the title Reverend. A reverend is someone who leads by example. I hope that none of the members of their congregation follow their lead. God is everywhere and is all knowing. God has seen the things they have done and heard the things they have said. In my idea of Heaven there is no placed for individuals such as these two. Even though I do not go to Church, I am a Christian whereas these gentleman are glorified con-artists. Just because you have a following does not make you pious. Hitler also had a following.

In other news I have a job interview on Monday. At least I feel wanted. We have also had to surrender one of our lizards. Holden (the male-as if the name weren't obvious enough) became very agressive and violent. Now there is only Phoebe. It is better this way.
