I thought we should leave it up to the voters Hoot...

I still can not believe that the 5 to 4 majority is not good enough. They are going to have a short lived 6 to 3, and then boom 9 to 6 or 7 to 6. It will be interesting. I am glad we are keeping this thread alive! So far, so good on the old prediction board!

Interesting huh? You have a gift for naïveté.

I can think of a similarly 'interesting' historical event as described in Genesis chapter 19. God had sent two Angels to forcefully cause Lot to vacate the cities, (Sodom and Gomorrah) before He destroyed them for their grievous sins. The town's folk were so evil and lawless that when they heard about the arrival of two 'men' to see Lot, they descended on his house and called into him announcing their intentions to sexually accost his guests. Gen 19:5 - "And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them."

God had to strike all those men blind to keep them from accomplishing their evil intent. And as the Angels escorted Lot and his family out of the cities,  Sodom and Gomorrah were reduced to ashes by the hand of God Himself.

You may think that in watching a similar level of lawlessness in real time go down in our day, which is btw in the very throes of effecting the civil destruction of our once great nation, to be interesting. I think it is tragic as it is apocalyptic.
