Communism vs Consecration

China Easter Crackdown

Church members detained

TNA article

I have had several people ask me if communism is about the same as consecration....it isn't.
Ezra Taft Benson said it this way. "Communism in practice is socialism....Socialism cannot work except through an all-powerful state. The state has to be supreme in everything. When individuals begin to exert their God-given rights, the state has to suppress that freedom. So belief in God must be suppressed, and with that gone freedom of conscience and religion must also go. Those are the first of our liberties mentioned in the Bill of Rights. " ETB talk

Anyway, when I saw the freedoms denied these people as they tried to worship yesterday, and in general, and I felt bad. I hope everyone had a happy Easter. I'm glad we were able to worship yesterday "according to the dictates of our own conscious" and am grateful for the constitution and the freedoms that it protects. I thank my Savior for His suffering in fulfilling His unimaginable roll in our Fathers plan.

Armageddon????

Ahh, the world is coming to and end. I just heard my 4 year old ask my 7 year old if she would play Go Fish with him. She said, "not until the train tracks and the cushions all over the floor are cleaned up." Then he said, "ok, and now he is cleaning them up."

Where are my real children and who has them??????

Wait, peace and equilibrium have been reestablished. He quit and they have flopped them selves down in front of the T.V. Sigh!!!

Too Much Saliva

So I went to lunch yesterday with some family and realized that I was producing too much saliva in my mouth. So this morning I took a pregnancy test. I know that some people don't tell anyone until they're showing, oh wait, I think I am showing so..."I AM PREGNANT". That saliva thing is the worst part of pregnancy for me. Does anyone else get that?
