Day 33


It's Groundhog Day and I hear we are in store of 6 more weeks of winter. Rainy this morning. They are saying rain for the next 2 days.
I have been interested in this story about the group of Idaho Baptists who were arrested for trying to haul 30 children across the border. What were they thinking? Their building not even completed, stockpiles of essentials far from what is needed they head for the streets of Haiti to gather up some younguns for their orphanage. Never mind that 2 of the 30 children are yelling they are not orphans. Or proper paperwork to remove these children. No child histories, not even their names. All the while they are thinking they are above the law doing "God's" work. There are no free adoptions so I am sure they were planning on using the proceeds to complete their unfinished building, so, there is the greed factor at play here. The Haitian government wants to make an example of them, and, I think they should.
