“Someone has described the modern American as a person who drives a bank financed car over a bond financed highway on credit card gas to open a charge account at a department store so he can fill his savings and loan financed home with installment purchased furniture. may this also be a description of many modern professed Christians? And may this not be one reason why modern Christians have so little time to pray? Importunity combined with perfect faith in unconquerable!” MayLittlesPersonsReasonHomeChristianPrayerPerfectModernCarPrayingAccountsCreditStoresCardsSavingReason WhyDepartmentGasDescriptionFurnitureHighwaysLoanSavingsCredit CardLittle TimeDepartment StoresUnconquerable Author:Paul Billheimer
“Attorney General John Ashcroft has earned himself a remarkable distinction as the Torquemada of American law. Tomás de Torquemada...was largely responsible for...[the] torture and the burning of heretics — Muslims in particular. Now, of course, I am not accusing the Attorney General of pulling out anyone's fingernails or burning people at the stake (at least I don't know of any such cases). But one does get the sense these days that the old Spaniard's spirit is comfortably at home in Ashcroft's Department of Justice.” PeopleKnowsDoeHomeLawSpiritCoursesJusticeCasesParticularResponsibleBurningThese DaysTortureDepartmentDistinctionRemarkableStakesTomsPullingAttorneyHereticFingernailsAccusingSpaniardsAmerican Law Author:Walter Cronkite
