Trib Updates


This is a weekly series that will include a brief summary of the latest articles that have been published on The Tribulation Times Herald-Exhorter.  Hopefully, this will encourage you to go check out some truly outstanding articles that have been published by a number of truly outstanding authors.  Moreover, I hope this will also encourage you to want to become a contributing member/author, as well.  The “Hear Ye!  Hear Ye!” site explanation near the top of the side-bar should answer many of your questions.  Yes, this series also included an “SOS! (Spam On Saturdays)”  segment before, but it just wasn’t working for me.  Therefore, that will be replaced by a republishing of one of the Trib articles.

[Regret] has RN being painfully honest about something that we all should want to do better with.

[I Loathe New York – Part 2] has RN getting back into character.

[Baron Cohen’s Dictator Warns West Over Oscar Ban] is a video clip that RN approves of.

[Mayan Mystery Lights!] has RN reminding us that we need to become fluent in Spanish.

[The Amish] has some observations from me about the PBS documentary recently aired and the Christian denomination itself.


[Oh well, now this makes lots of sense…] has what keeps RN entertained.

[Creepy, Bald and Evil Wall Street Banker] has some more of what keeps RN entertained.


Have we really become so arrogant (as a nation) that it is beneath us to apologize for making a mistake?  From the howls of protest coming from sea to shining sea over our president making a public apology to the Afghan people for the accidental(?) burning of some Qurans and religious texts while cleaning out a library on a military base in the country, it would seem that we have.

As indicated, there is another thing about the incident that bothers me.  For what were we doing burning books of any kind in the first-place?

No, the violent reaction of the Afghan people is certainly not helping.  For with them rioting in the streets and murdering U.S. servicemen, they just bolster the resolve of those who think that we have not done anything to apologize for.

Ah, but there is a warning in place that we would do well to heed.  For it is written: Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. [Proverbs 16:18 KJV]

Since the Blogger spam filter has been found sorely lacking lately, I will start moderating comments. Be assured that I am only interested in deleting spam. So, if you feel a need to take me to task over something—even anonymously, go ahead and let 'er rip, and I will publish it as soon as I can.
