			<description><![CDATA[ Why is it that some of the smartest people are so gullible? I've gotten another circulated e-mail that is supposedly tracked for some greater good. Of course, it's a hoax. This time, it's a really cruel one because it describes a 10-month old baby girl who's supposedly dying of brain cancer. The only way the parents can raise money for the baby's care is by sending an e-mail and the company tracks the email and gives money each time it's forwarded.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ After reading Wayne's prayer request, why does it appear to be an epidemic in Christian divorces? <br><br>Besides just basic sin, my hunch is that it has to do with the nature of Christianity and the church. When a family is totally involved in a good bible-believing church, one partner is growing fantastically and other was active but maybe a pretender or has a lust of the world. The person has to divorce the church (including his family and church family) to escape from what he sees as... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I've been approached about working part-time with one of the ministries at my church. It pays about half what I'm making now (per hour), has no benefits or paid days off (vacation, holiday, sick), and is a complete backwards step careerwise. I don't know the person I'd be working for. It's providing administrative support for a fund-raising project.

			<description><![CDATA[ I'm hearing news reports whereby the snipers were stopped for traffic violations after the first shooting. Either in New Jersey or Maryland. The news media are asking the question of why the outstanding warrants of gun violations didn't trigger the law enforcement officer to take Muhammad into custody. Was it a case of sloppy police communication or the after effects of profiling charges? I'm sure the profiling laws do not prevent proper police work, but the undercurrent of it might.
