Ouija Boards on sale for 8 year olds

I am disgusted and outraged to find out that Hasbro Waddington sell a Ouija Board 'game' aimed at age 8 to adults. How sick is that?

Anyone wanting to protest about this product can do so as follows:

Thanks for the tip Neil

You will not be surprised that I haven't published your 4 latest set of comments, due to their aggressive nature and of course the use of bad and blasphemous comments. It is ironic and sad that someone who I respect for their intelligence attacks my intelligence and needs to resort to such behaviour. I am willing to quote and comment on some of your posting:

"Your hope is, I presume, that by controlling others, you can control yourself and give acceptance and meaning to your own internal conflicts and that your own problems just might have some resolution."
I wonder if there is just a bit of psychological projection of yourself going on here? My prayer is that if this is so, you come to a place where you can enjoy the peace of heart that you need. I know that will sound patronising - but it is a heart felt comment!

... "Give it a rest – you’re a bore and in your heart of hearts you know this is true."

It is strange that the teachers in the schools that I work don't seem to think I am controlling or a bore (I'm talking about secular schools as well as Church Schools) - they invite me back over and over again. The children too seem to get excited about my RE lessons and Assemblies.
The drug addict who wants to join our Sunday evening nurture group and the lady who comes to our group who has received massive healing of body mind and soul don't seem to think I am controlling or a bore. The people who write to me and ring me up - challenged after my sermons in church don't seem to think I am controlling or a bore - but hey - who are they to have an opinion?

"What has really angered me about this post is that I can’t, in recent postings (I’m not trawling the whole of your blog for evidence), find any evidence of where you last posted a telephone number or e-address for complaint etc. On your post about Haiti did you give a webpage or donation line?"

No there were so many that I didn't feel the need to - I would have thought everyone would have knowledge of places where they can give - but I do take your point. I did however urge people to give: My first Post on the Haiti was in fact headed "A time to give!" and ended with the words "Haiti needs our help. We should be as generous as we can."
I didn't seem to get a word of approval for this from you (not that I am looking for one).

Then you got nasty about my friend Wayne - who i believe has a heart of gold. You have an aggessive attitude towards Americans. It would be better if you were so bold as to post your comments on blogs of those from over the Pond - they can answer for themselves.

"to me you are nothing but a Bible Bashing version of the Daily Mail or Daily Express."

ok - you think so - those who know me seem to think otherwise.

Take care

Where does the ability to love come from?

Perhaps a silly and too basic a question, but I wonder if you have sat and thought about the question: "Where does the ability to love come from?" There is a new film out about Charles Darwin's life and of course his theory of evolution. The theory (and that is all it is!) describes a dog eat dog existence - where only the fittest survive. In all this the theory fails to address the existence of love. I'm thinking about the type of sacrifical love that we see clearly in the life of Jesus Christ. The type of love that on a good day we might manage to emulate. The Bible of course is absolutely clear about the source of love. Dear friends (says John) let us love one another, for love comes from God. And more clearly goes on to say: God is love! In the New Testament there are 3 words for love: Philia (family loyalty) Eros: (physical intimate love) And Agape: (sacrificial, life transforming, Christ like love) All these are gift from God but it is the th...

Hedonist in the Making

Image
The other day I saw a young girl (about 6 yrs old) wearing a t-shirt that proclaimed: "It's all about me ME ME!" This young girl is a hedonist in the making. Little does she know of the prison she is building for herself. Little does she know of Satan and his cohorts who are all too willing to help her. The basic idea behind hedonistic thought is that pleasure is the only thing that is good for a person. Hedonism can be conjoined with psychological egoism - where people are motivated only by their self interest. Isaiah observed this attitude in Israel: "Let us eat drink (and be merry)" you say, "for tomorrow we die!" How sad that there is a real potential for this child to finish up like this:- All this only reinforces the importance (and high calling!) of children's outreach in the church. It was Bill Wilson of Metro Ministries and founder of Kidz Klub that said: "It iseasier to build boys and girls then to repair men and women" . How...

Evolution - (blind faith) for dummies?

Image
I found this on Ray Comfort's website. I have been accused by atheists of having a blind faith. I believe there is no more blind a faith than those who put their faith and trust in the theory of evolution. This (now dying!? world view) that humans have evolved from another species of animal has been followed by millions of people without a shred of evidence for many years. I wouldn't want to put anybody down but (light heartedly) I like Ray suggest that the title of the book just about gets it about right!
