Boredom
Jeffrey W. Hamilton
The child has a room full of action figures, video games, cable TV, DVD player, a huge collection of movies, every piece of sports equipment known to man, his own telephone, a fully loaded computer with high-speed Internet access … but he doesn’t have a thing to do. He’s bored.
Was Jesus a Vegetarian?
Jeffrey W. Hamilton
On March 17, 1999 reprinted a hilarious article by Bill Broadway of the Washington Post. It seems the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have launched a campaign to claim that Jesus was a vegetarian. Billboards stating “Jesus was a vegetarian.

Is it morally wrong to hunt, kill and eat animals? Do you or someone you know believe that it is? Some animal rights activists have even made the claim that Jesus was a vegetarian, and in order to show respect for God’s creatures, we should follow His example.

Ultrasound Shows Baby was Dead, But The Child Was Alive
Teresa Neumann (June 30, 2008)
(Photo: North News and Pictures Ltd.) “When we went back to the hospital and they said the baby was alive we just broke down. We couldn’t believe it. I would say to people, ‘Don’t give up, get a second opinion.”‘
(United Kingdom)—The Daily Mail has published a report about a woman who was told her baby was dead when she sent to the hospital after exhibiting symptoms of a miscarriage. After an ultrasound showed no signs of life, doctors gave her the option of “removing” the baby, speeding up the miscarriage with pills, or going home and miscarrying “naturally.”
