I would like to thank the wonderful people who were praying about the township open space committee buying land from the church. It has been approved, Now we just have to have enough money to last until this is all settled.

Good morning and God be with you!
In times like these, there is a temptation to wonder why God allows evil to flourish. Some folks call this the Problem of Evil, but the answer is simple. We have free will, and we consistently use it against the will of God. The Bible is largely a recitation of the many times and ways God has reached out to as would a loving father, urging us to do what it right, forgiving us for our errors, only to have us throw it back in His face. When we experience adversity, we must see it as a call to repent, examine our own actions, and understand that this life is not all that there is. Are we truly preparing ourselves for the life to come? Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at October 28, 2023 09:00 AM (llXky) 46

Though it seems trivial, I think a lot of Buckeye and Spartan prayers are being answered with the scandal in Ann Arbor right now. It should be noted that Jim Harbaugh is an alleged co-religionist, went to Rome and was even able to meet Pope Francies, where (I am not making this up) he gave him a pair of Jump Man sneakers and a winged football helmet. The look of confusion on the Holy Father's face said it all.

Regarding my Mother-in-law, just found out yesterday evening that the cancer was *not* in her lymph nodes. Apparently she misunderstood at the original Dr. meeting, but that was corrected in a subsequent meeting.

When I came along and the ol' man had to room up a building he'd started as his garage, there was a building supply shortage and he got some used lumber. When I tied into one of the walls over 30 years later, the studs were two inches by four inches and made of oak. I used up a drill bit pre-drilling the nail holes. What a walking stick an insurrectionist could fashion of those.
I believe 2 x 4's have had four different standard dimensions in the last century, which is kind of like gun control working you down from .44 Bulldog to a .32 purse gun.

Sts. Simon & Jude Thaddeus
St. Jude Thaddeus (1st c.) was a blood relative of Jesus Christ and one of his Twelve Apostles. He was known for his preaching, healing, exorcisms, and his appearance was said to have closely matched that of Jesus’. He is the patron of impossible causes, desperate situations, and hospitals. He also wrote the book of the Bible that bears his name. St. Simon the Zealot (1st c.) was also one of Jesus’ Twelve Apostles, but one of the most obscure. He earned his name for being zealous for the honor of Jesus, showing a holy indignation towards those who claimed Christ with their lips while dishonoring him with their manner of life. After the Ascension of Jesus, towards the end of his life, it is believed that St. Simon joined St. Jude to preach the Gospel in Persia, where they were both martyred in 65 A.D. St. Simon the Zealot and St. Jude Thaddeus share a feast day on October 28th. Posted by: Tonypete at October 28, 2023 09:18 AM (SAX5G) 109

is this in regards to your father-in-law?
******* Yeah fifteen years ago this month. We have never gotten the local Sheriff to engage in the case or search the neighbor's property. This year a young man bought the property, heard the story of the Curious Disappearance from a neighbor and found the Curious Disappearance blog and contacted us, offering his help. Missus M found a guy from Tennessee who coordinates cadaver dog searches and they are sending five dog/handler pairs to do a search, Pro bono. One of the dogs in their group that is NOT coming is named Seamus, which would have been beautifully ironic.

House update (believe it or not, this is the short version):
I was on the verge of walking away after the inspection report. (I'm told this is a fairly normal response.) My realtor and the inspector talked me off the ledge and we are moving forward with additional inspections/estimates and a repair request. By Monday the path forward (or not) should be clearer, but my understanding at this moment is that the problems are not catastrophic or urgent. So I may be shopping for front porch rocking chairs soon. There will always be a chair for any Hordian who finds him- or herself (no xirs plz) in upstate SC. Aside from that, still grinning from Texas... Posted by: screaming in digital at October 28, 2023 09:27 AM (aBJcM) 125
Tried to get this in on time but a little late.
Thanks to the horde for all the prayers for my dad, Mindful Webworker. He had an emergency surgery a week ago Friday and is recovering well. They are not sure still what happened, more tests needed but so far his prognosis is good and he is in good spirits and recovering well. Many thanks from the whole Mindful family for the prayers and a special thanks to Muldoon for the limerick which brought laughter to some dark days. Continued prayers for total recovery are appreciated while we give thanks and glory to God for the doctors saving my dad's life. Posted by: Sugar Plum fairy at October 28, 2023 09:27 AM (Uul2f) 126

We have free will, and we consistently use it against the will of God. The Bible is largely a recitation of the many times and ways God has reached out to as would a loving father, urging us to do what it right, forgiving us for our errors, only to have us throw it back in His face.

Posted by: fd - Ha. The funny part is that we stopped at KFC yesterday and there was a 1" chicken tender in my order. Now you've got me wondering. Sort of related, I probably shouldn't have even mentioned what I did but I know you're a car guy and figured you'd appreciate being able to relay the how and why of the way something works to your kid.

IDF confirms Israeli fighter jets were scrambled and intercepted hostile aerial targets over the Red Sea earlier today. Hearing these may be land-attack cruise missiles. If so, they were likely launched by the Iranian-backed Houthis from north-western Yemen and could be 2000km range Quds-4 LACM. They also have 2000+km range Wa’id (Shahed-136) and Samad-4 kamikaze drones that can reach Israel. Posted by: andycanuck (krqg6) at October 28, 2023 10:28 AM (krqg6) 273

As the conflict in Gaza escalates I wouldn’t be surprised to see Arrow-2/Arrow-3 anti-ballistic missile air defences in Israel engage targets, likely from Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen. They have the new Toufan (Iranian Ghadr) medium-range ballistic missile with ~1950km range. The Houthis may calculate that their distance relative to Israel would limit counter attacks. This is likely what is already partly behind their decision to launch land-attack cruise missiles and drones at southern Israel while acknowledging the Israelis may strike back at Sana’a The Israelis would be likely to conduct strikes in Yemen in the event of a ballistic missile attack. They can use jet fighters armed with cruise missiles with heavy tanker support or use Dolphin/Dolphin II-class submarines with submarine-launched cruise missiles.

Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Now With Pumpkin Spice! at October 28, 2023 10:12 AM (FVME7) ---- Hello Hamas, You're not supposed to take hostages, particularly civilians.

You release ALL the hostages THEN we'll look at our bombing and invasion strategy. If you reject this deal then you will taste the Devil's Barb.

I assume the same for the area's Christians too thus the Jerusalem archbishop decrying the targeted bombing campaign.
Posted by: andycanuck (krqg6) at October 28, 2023 09:50 AM (krqg6) --- There is an assumption among Americans that Israelis are natural allies of Christians while Muslims are enemies. It's not that simple. The 'Arab' Christians in the region are descended from the first converts, and there is a strong antipathy between them and the Jews who not only rejected Christ, but returned to a kingdom claiming a covenant that had long since been fulfilled and then voided. We see Israelis as modern, freedom-loving people in the Abrahamic tradition, but the Arab Christians see them as still denying Christ and once more trying to re-established a fallen kingdom. Oh, and wrecking their world. The US interventions in the Middle East have been an abject disaster for Christians there. Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H.

ELINT News retweeted Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian @manniefabian Oct 27
In a briefing for reporters of international media outlets, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari says Hamas's main base of operations is under Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. He says the information on Hamas's use of the hospital is based on a wide range of intelligence sources collected by the Military Intelligence Directorate and Shin Bet security agency, and that the intel has been provided to various allies. Hagari says that Hamas has several underground complexes under Shifa which are used by the terror group's leaders to direct attacks against Israel. He says Israel has intelligence that there are several tunnels leading to the underground base from outside the hospital, so that Hamas officials do not need to enter the hospital to reach it. And that that there is also an entrance to the underground complex from within one of the wards. Posted by: andycanuck (krqg6) at October 28, 2023 10:46 AM (krqg6) 324

314 - If Arab ‘Christians’ have antipathy for Jews they’re wrong. In the evangelical circles I’ve run my entire life, we all believe the Abrahamic covenant of Genesis 12 remains. God blesses those who bless his chosen people and curses those who don’t. Ironically, we evangelicals also believe Jews are lost spiritually until they accept Christ. Antipathy towards Jews is entirely alien to my little corner of Christianity

I am aware of his being married with children. I am unable to say whether he got married and had children because that was a socially acceptable thing to do and he really have preferred to be with me or was truly bisexual.

Incidentally I finally watched some of the footage from that festival. I have rarely seen a bigger clusterf*** in my whole life. Nobody had any idea what to do, there was no decision-making process, nobody was in charge of anything, there was obviously no evacuation plan in the case of any sort of eventuality, half the attendees were high or tripping, security was pathetically understaffed and under-gunned. I'm shocked as many got away as did.
I suspect Hamas didn't get them all due to their own lack of competence. Well that, and stopping to torture, rape, loot, and take hostages instead of rounding them all up like a great big flock of stoned-out-of-their-minds sheep. Posted by: LenNeal at October 28, 2023 11:13 AM (43xH1) 373

Posted by: LinusVanPelt at October 28, 2023 11:00 AM (xT8gx) --- And they would tell you that the destruction of the Temple indicated that the covenant no longer stands. The new temple - raised in three days - is Christ. A key point is that "Arab Christians" are Jews who accepted Christ, and they see Israel as a foreign entity populated by foreigners.

Muldoon, I never feel right wishing you good luck on these endeavors.
Posted by: Kindltot ******** Yeah I 'get' that. No worries. We are really very accepting of the reality. And we are very comfortable with the likelihood that the dogs will not locate anything. For my wife especially there is a sense of validation that Jack's death was not unmarked, regardless of the search results. Just in the doing it. I first started commenting at AOSHQ in '09 as a means of publicizing the Curious Disappearance and periodically since then have revisited it here. We are grateful for all the expressions of support from folks here through the years. I never meant to threadjack, and hope it's not become tiresome.
