Kopp Disclosure

Starbucks is closing 600 stores; but don't worry because 582 of 'em are on Chicago's Michigan Avenue.
I would worry about an ideologist masquerading in vestimenti on Michigan Avenue who has cited the causes as homophobia, GWB, and people who still think the Bible has authority for faith and morality.
He's among the conspirators who murdered the PCUSA which I don't talk about anymore.
Hmm.
@#$%
I went to a basketball game last Wednesday and saw an old friend who is a UCC pastor.
If you want to know what the PCUSA has become but can't see because you're still longing for the way things never were or maybe were but are no more, take a look at our denominational sibling.
Anyway, he told me that his congregation just pulled out because the UCC has gone over the edge; citing confused Christology and sexual ethics.
If I were still paying attention to our franchise, I'd say his rationalization sounds familiar.
I thought he was kin to the guy on Michigan Avenue.
I'm glad I was wrong because he's right.
Hmm.
@#$%
Aside from two subscribers in Florida who wrote to say I am stupid for taking a non-vacation and should shut up and stop the whining, I know I can be wrong when others are right.
I am categorically committed to Luther's confession without equivocation: "Unless I am convicted by Scripture and plain reason, I do not accept the authority of popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other. My conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and I will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand. I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen."
I know that sounds a little dramatic for folks who aren't serious about Savior Jesus as Lord as attested in Holy Scripture and upheld by the PCUSA's constitution so far and so precariously.
Hmm.
@#$%
Speaking of confessions, I am flirting with other drivers.
Mine is just not faithful or forgiving.
Hmm.
@#$%
I've figured out the difference between Cubs and Yankees fans.
When things are going well for the Cubs, their fans expect them to go badly before too long.
When things are going badly for the Yankees, their fans expect them to improve before too long.
Hmm.
@#$%
I cannot vote for BHO because there is guilt by intimate association with mobsters, domestic terrorists, pastor disasters, America haters, whites who don't like blacks and blacks who don't like whites, a really loony General looking for a job, et.al.
Parenthetically, there's a difference between hanging out with as buddies and loving enough to witness to; and not knowing the difference is like ending clauses and sentences with prepositions.
I don't want to vote for JM because there is no intimate association with advocates of traditional values and intentional distancing from anyone who has 'em; and if he picks a cult member to run with him, there ain't no way...
Anyone who runs with JL will get my vote.
Hmm.

I was driving to South Bend to visit the College Football Hall of Fame on July 4.
An old Cat Stevens' song came on: "I've seen a lot of what the world can do; and it's breaking my heart in two...Oh, baby, beware, it's a wild world."
He became a Muslim.
Hmm.
@#$%
I'm going to Starbucks for a cup of coffee.
Oops.
That one's closed.
Hmm.
@#$%
So much of life makes you go hmm.
They're parables.
Some get 'em and some don't get 'em.
Some see and some don't see.
Some people don't need drugs or alcohol to anesthetize themselves.
Maybe that's why YouTube is so popular.
Hmm.
@#$%
Blessings and Love!
