  • Disgusting Comment Heard Today

    I frequently travel via bus and subway throughout the godless boroughs of New York City. I've heard interesting things at times, and other times, I hear things that make me want to immediately stop the train and get off. For instance:


    "The doctor said the lesions are nothing to worry about. We can still have s-e-c-k-s tonight!"


    "Don't Mark and Stewart make a wonderful couple! So cute together."


    "I hear mixed fabrics are making a comeback."


    And then the one I heard today:


    "How fitting for Easter to fall on April Fool's Day. Don't the two go together?" I jumped out of my seat and rebuked the person in Jesus' Name. I told them who the REAL fool is (Psalms 14:1) (Psalms 53:1). The Psalmist loved to sing about fools, kind of like Ricky Nelson (Fools Rush In). I screamed at the top of my lungs: "My JESUS is no FOOL! I am no fool!" My face was as red as a beet or pomegranate and I knew I had to leave that train. In fact, the conductor told me it would be prudent if I did.


    This world is bound for HELL when there are opinions out there that differ from ours.
    Proverbs 21:31 KJV 1611:
    “The horse is prepared against the day of battell: but safetie is of the Lord.”

    Lord, may I serve my equine brothers and sisters just as I do my fellow man.
    Amen and Amen

    I do not use public transport but had noticed peculiar looking people hanging around bus stops and railway stations and when travelling by train (visiting other countries) have seen some very suspicious antics. Especially overnight. On one occasion I was too nervous to sleep and walked up and down the corridor a bit. That particular train had a 24 hour bar and lounge facility, two bars actually, one of them full of English students laughing a lot and looking peculiar around the eyes they kept bumping into me it was horrible. The other lounge was done up like a tropical island but what sort of person prefers loitering in a cocktail lounge when very comfortable sleeper compartments are available some of which open up into a double unit that's actually quite roomy I leave to your imagination. I left. Back at the other lounge the Englishes were coming up to full voltage and, pretending I hadn't noticed, tried to engage in a conversation. They were very friendly if a little boisterous but any residual language skills were fading fast and I had the distinct impression they wouldn't be bothering with the sleeping compartments. I returned to the tropical island, mentally calculating how long I'd be immersed in this nightmare because it was quite a long journey and I'd need to sleep some time, probably during the day I thought. Which actually turned out to be the case.

    That may not be public transport in the narrower sense but like you I can remember the sorts of things heathens get up to and no doubt on subways they feel completely free to touch things, doors, grab handles, the seats which you also sit on or grab hold of so as a ministry you're taking on quite a burden. Fortunately, through prayer, you will be unable to catch those diseases but surely the smell is still there? How do you cope?

      Ugh! How horrible an experience for you! But it was clearly The Lord's way of giving you the opportunity to share His Word.


      You did good, BrotherLarry. In fact, you rebuked the hell out of them! (Or so we can hope.)


      P.S. Discussing mixed fabrics on a train! And in mixed company, no doubt!

        I have a friend from New York. She went to Pakistan to get away from the place and we've met up in between somewhere occasionally as she's going in one direction or another. It sounds awful! Actually worse than LA if you can believe that

          Sister Mitza, with town names like Lahore Pakistan must indeed, as the great President Trump says, be a complete and utter sh*thole. Much like Godless LA but in a dirtier and seedier way.

            There are some seedy areas I agree. Fortunately as far as I know there was no need for my friend to travel via Lahore and I'm fairly certain she missed out on the entertainment in Zhob. They offer year 'round activities unlike many destinations which close in winter, or in summer, but not Zhob and I'm happy to offer some clips from their tourist bureau:
