Is redemption possible without Jesus Christ?
On my Facepalm, I’m getting inundated with Happy Birthday wishes. (Thanks, naturally!) Some are funny and clever, and some even have images.

Anti-gay nurse Lincy T. Pandithurai terminated from Dallas V/A Hospital
The incredibly shocking story of Marine Corps veteran Esther Garatie went viral here a few months ago. She left a Dallas VA Hospital absolutely determined to kill herself, after a 3 hour rant from nurse Lincy Pandithurai about her ‘lifestyle of sin’. This monster will no longer be able to terrorize gay and lesbian veterans. …

Oklahoma politician attempting to reinstate Don’t Ask Don’t Tell
State legislator Mike Reynolds is an Air Force veteran. He’s also a Southern Baptist, which shouldn’t matter at all because he is a politician and not a preacher.

With (Facebook) friends like these…
Who needs NME’s? (or Melody Makers for that matter)** I think I was just the victim of a clever attempt to block me on Facebook. I was accepting the friend requests on my Facebook account.
