Your heart is in the right place; however, your head has not caught up to it. I do not mean that as an ugly statement. However, history does not support this and there is no evidence to support it from any present actions. I did not sign it and will not. Nor will I accept the numbered chip in my right hand or forward allowing me to buy or sell once the Muslims have taken over the world by violence. As goofy and angry as you may think this is. Keep it, only a few years until you have to make that choice. May God bless you with his understanding and wisdom. There is but one living God!

No question of not supporting anything with an appeal of the universal. Only wish the fanaticists would understand; they don't. They say, excepting theirs, all others are wrong.

Re: I don't know if this applys to your blog, but MAYBE you should read this.
No, Guy. She told me about it personally. You are right about not forwarding all the chain letters that get sent round the net. I delete them automatically.

Elinjo,
My boss sent me a similar email, a couple of years ago. For awhile, she deleted the addresses of previous recipients, but stopped doing it shortly thereafter. I don't know why, probably just forgot. Today, she sent me this, for essentially the same reason.
A word to the wise, might stop a LOT of misery, if we can just REMEMBER that the world is full of people who are too lazy to just work for a living, and don't care who they hurt!

Thought I'd pass this along?
E-MAIL TRACKING
Here is something everyone should read and take the advice.. If you don't, you are hurting yourself and your email buddies.
By now, I guess everyone is familiar with www.snopes.com and/ or www.truthorfiction.com
For determining whether information received via email is just that: true/false or fact/fiction. Both are excellent sites.
Advice from Snopes.com -- Very important!
1) Any time you see an E-Mail that says forward this on to '10' (or however many) of your friends, sign this petition, or you'll get bad luck, good luck, you'll see something funny on your screen after you send it, or whatever, it almost always has an E-Mail tracker program attached that tracks the cookies and E-Mails of those folks you forward to.
The host sender is getting a copy each time it gets forwarded and then is able to get lists of 'active' E-Mail addresses to use in SPAM E-Mails, or sell to other spammers. Even when you get emails that demand you send the email on if you're not ashamed of God/Jesus .... .. that's E-mail tracking and they're playing on our conscience. These people don't care how they get your email addresses - just as long as they get them. Also, emails that talk about a missing child or a child with an incurable disease -"how would you feel if that was your child" . E- mail Tracking!!!
Ignore them and don't participate!
2) Almost all E-Mails that ask you to add your name and forward on to others are similar to that mass letter years ago that asked people to send business cards to the little kid in Florida who wanted to break the Guinness Book of Records for the most cards. All it was, and all any of this type of E-Mail is a way to get names and 'cookie' tracking information for telemarketers and spammers - - to validate active E-Mail accounts for their own profitable purposes.
You can do your friends and family members a GREAT favor by sending this information to them; you will be providing a service to your friends, and will be rewarded by not getting thousands of spam E-Mails in the future!
If you have been sending out (FORWARDING) the above kinds of E-Mail, now you know why you get so much SPAM!
Do yourself a favor and STOP adding your name(s) to those types of listings regardless how inviting they might sound! ... Or make you feel guilty if you don't! ... It s all about getting email addresses - nothing more!
You may think you are supporting a GREAT cause, but you are NOT! Instead, you will be getting tons of junk mail later and very possibly a virus attached! Plus, you are helping the spammers get rich! Let's not make it easy for them!
Also: E-Mail petitions are NOT acceptable to White House, Congress or any other organization - I.e. Social security, etc. To be acceptable, petitions must have a signed signature and full address of the person signing the petition, so this is a waste of time and you're just helping the Email trackers.

Elinjo, but of course, you, so precious would remember this link for all to consider. I will add to it and pray for this to encompass world 'round. I believe that by storm - whatever means, LOVE and all it's depth and meaning will one day reign on our earth, no matter, race, creed or deity ~ xoxxo

One's greatest passion should be compassion, ones greatest strength--love;
but compromise does naught to defy despair.
