The people are crazy

There is a new song just a few weeks old that has a line that says "God is great and the people are crazy." How true.

God works in very mysterious ways. You agnostics and atheists might want to cover your ears as you read what I'm about to say.

Scoff if you want, I see the hand of God in Tiller's murder, and I'm sure he left a calling card. Remember "the wages of sin is death" and the definition of an abortion: unborn, unloved, unnamed, unburied. Jesus said in regard to harming children, "If you harm one hair on the least of these it would be better for you that a millstone were put on your neck and thrown in the sea."

Bet Tiller wishes he had a millstone instead of God's hands on him after 60,000 killings. Gentle ladies, please pardon my French. Look on the bright side, who knows how many babies will live because of one death. On June 9, it was announced that Tiller's abattoir would be closed permanently. Good, praise the Lord. Notice June 9, notice the sequences of nine days in the following.

Earlier, I alluded to God's hand in Tiller's demise. Bear with me as I'm not a wordsmith nor an articulate man, but, hey, I did graduate from the third grade once. Eight years in a one-room rural school. I digress.

I might be mistaken, but I understand the Catholic Church modeled the Novenas on the nine days the Apostles were praying, etc., from Jesus' ascension to the Pentecost. Our local parishes of Plainville and Stockton as did various other parishes in the Salina and Wichita diocese held Novenas (prayers, rosaries, holy hours, etc.) for the express reason to close Tiller's clinic.

The Novena was from May 13 to 21, exactly nine days. Then nine days of silence to May 30. Was this to allow Tiller to repent? Then, May 31, Tiller lay dead. Now today Tiller's abattoir is closed. Permanently! Exactly nine days to the day after his murder.

Happenstance? Not likely. Retribution? Probably. I and many others think it is retribution. I do know God uses people, nature and nations to punish people, peoples and nations. I ask, is the nine-day sequence a calling card?

Let me give you another true happening. Remember the man and his family, etc., who died in a plane crash in Montana a few short months ago? They were going on vacation from California. The press never told you the odd part of it. That man owned a chain of abortion clinics. They crashed in (or near) a cemetery. They crashed almost at the foot of a monument to and in memory of the aborted! The hand of God? Surely. Happenstance? Not likely. Retribution? Probably.

You lukewarm ministers and lay people, get on the stick, tell your representatives to back a "Life at Conception Act."

That will solve the whole abortion death march.

Remember, "God is great and the people are crazy."
