Iowa Renewal Project

I am writing this blog post from my pocket pc in my hotel room via wi-fi (aaah, you gotta love tecnology). We were given the opportunity to come to this event sponsored by the Iowa Renewal Project (a group that is attempting to influence pastors with preaching the need to get involved politically). I listened to Bob McEwen deliver one of the most profound messages I have ever heard on our country's founding fathers. Then we heard Newt Gingrich speak on a similar topic (I got to meet him privately and shake his hand).

My wife's favorite part is that she got a new outfit. My boy's favorite part was swimming in the hotel pool. Mine was just getting a quick little get-away with my family!

Hello Mr Demastus

Thank you for sharing your views. I have read more on god and find my views evolving.

I would first like to apologise if I came across as harsh. I have nothing against religions. I am against their untruthful use and manipulation evident throughout the ages and even now (Jihad would be an example. even though islam is peaceful)

Perhaps one day I will better understand religions.

I have been doing some reading and found "The Life of Mahatma Gandhi" by Louis Fischer an excellent read on religion and truthful interpretation of it.

I wish you the best.
