This is wonderful Fossil  I am impressed with all I have read and seen in the newspapers of what help is going and what help is being sent or going on their own, that most

Three loaded L P Gas trucks from Dawsonville, GA nearing Houston today seeking out cell towers to refuel at no charge to anyone. They are just trying to do their part in keeping communications operating. . The beginning of life, conception..

I too have watched videos, seen photos of able body people come together to aid and rescue the victims of hurricane Harvey. Men and women joined arm to arm helping a pregnant women into a rescue vehicle. Women helping men and young people helping older folks. Then I read an article and saw a photo of a Huston Swat Officer aiding a mother and child to safety, then I was incensed to hear that a feminist movement the vision of a man as a protector is degrading to women - that women don't need protection, that women can be protectors. There is also a statement from a transgender group that women can be men and men can be women, that gender can be entirely malleable. Another from the social left that man's protective nature is inextricably intertwined toxic masculinity - that the aggressive that undergirds man's defense of family also undergirds his violence against others. Can't people just get along and help others instead of bitch about those that do?

I would bet that more than a few of those pickups had Rebel flag decals on them. Yep, those white supremacist deplorables! God bless them all. I know one young man near us, whose whole company went down to Texas, including one who had just got married and was on vacation for his honeymoon..... the company is paying their wages and living expenses and supplying the supplies for whatever it is their company does in communications. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I remember last year when my town was in distress because of flooding. Most of the help came from church people. The Mennonites built an entire neighborhood calling it Hope Village. There were also several faith groups doing repairs. One woman remarked, "I'll never call them holy rollers again" when she observed men and women getting into the dirt. There were a few churches that sheltered people but quite a were taken into homes. The Greenbrier Resort was opened to flood survivors. Other churches worked as collection and organizing centers. This is one of the reasons I saw red when people started slamming Pastor Osteen because the Lakewood Mega Church did not IMEDIATELLY open the doors to flood refuges. They have no idea what goes into organizing a shelter. Smaller ones can do it more quickly than the larger ones. The Rhema Christian Center was able to open right away because they have done this many times especially in severe snowstorms. I didn't ask some of the fundamental Christians about their politics. I just told them, "Thank You!!" Abracadabra
