The news media in this area continues to disappoint and demonstrate their bias. I was listening to Peoria's CBS local news. The story was about the hot weather conditions. The reporter was interviewing children around a swimming pool. One girl started her sentence with "Oh my God". I changed the channel.

The girl is inundated with that blasphemous language all the time on television and in public. Although her parents should not allow it, it is not surprising. What is not acceptable is the CBS affiliate airing it. They didn't have any other quotes they could have used instead?

I can almost guarantee that if the girl had used an offensive slang name to refer to a group of people, it would not have been aired. Yet, it is perfectly acceptable to have a little girl blaspheme the name of the Creator of the universe. After all, it is done every five minutes on almost every television show on the air. It's the only way our "creative" writers can show excitement, surprise, and their ignorance. I will not be watching CBS news.

Meanwhile, the Peoria Journal Star published on July 26, 2005 the daily Doonesbury propaganda piece. The last frame of which presumably had the President of the United States referring to Karl Rove as a ".... Blossom".

My dictionary defines blossom as "to come into one's own: Develop". .... has two definitions. One is "a piece of excrement--sometimes considered vulgar". The other is a contemptible person--usu. considered vulgar". Now, we have the wonderful picture of Karl Rove being developed excrement. The Journal Star is responsible for what it publishes!

Now when a parent tells his child, "I don't want to hear you say that!" The child can respond, "But it was in the paper!" The paper is responsible for what it publishes! I would cancel my subscription to your paper, but I don't have one.

Here is what the New Testament says about language that is not acceptable to the LORD. Matthew 12: 36. "Men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken." (Quoting our LORD JESUS CHRIST)

Mark 7: 20-23. "He (JESUS) went on "What comes out of a man is what makes him 'unclean.' For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, LEWDNESS, envy, slander, arroance, and folly. All these evils come from inside and make a man 'unclean.'"

Ephesians 4: 29. "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs."

Ephesians 5: 4. "Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving."

Colossians 3: 8. "But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips."

Beware how you offend GOD!
