Self Defence

In reference to the comment by Kelly, i would like to say the following. I do not think that there is any possibility that one will view the culture they go into as better than their own. Our country or culture is the best in the world. However, though one might criticise the place or culture they are in comparative to their own, its not the criticism i have a problem with. It is the careless way that it is done. If the criticism is likely to be heard by, or in this case read, by those one is going to minister to or with, one should consider whether the freedom of speech and expression is worth the price of the offence it is likely to cause.

I am beyond the point of anger on this issue(refer to previous post). Am at a point of disbelief at the apparent carelessness online. In case someone thought i was just mad in my previous post and made things up, i thought id copy another development linked on facebook. Its a shopping list...I'll let you read it as it is...

So many have asked us to tell them what we need, so here it is:
Full Mattress
Twin Mattress
2 Dressers
Coffee Table
End Tables
IKEA Gift Card (we've picked out some things here and feel like the shipping in flat boxes can save us room)
Washer/Dryer
Video Camera
Printer
MacBook
Trampoline
Tools (saws, hammers, nail gun, screw guns, router, screwdrivers)
Raegan wants a telescope for his birthday and won't let me not put it in this list
Curtains (Red, Brown, Yellow, Green, Purple) lined would be great
Sheets
Blankets
Throws (Blankets)
Wal-Mart Gift Cards (for the little things that you can't think of till two days before)

Thank You. Remember you can pray for this list!!

I rest my case
