What do You Plan to do with Joe the Plumber’s Money?

If you’re like me, and you’ll be one of the many people who will allegedly benefit from Obama’s spreading of the wealth, what do you plan to do with your ill-gotten gains?

I’m thinking I have a moral obligation to do some bathroom remodeling and pay a plumber to come do it.

Thoughts?

Vanity

CaseyP| October 27, 2008 9:44 am

Solomon said it best when he said all in this world is vanity. Little means much, and there’s little that you can truly control in life, besides your own ability to work to the best of your ability, and enjoy the fruits of your labor, such as they are. It’s God who builds up and tears down . . . and anything you do or don’t have in life, otherwise, is up to him. (Ecc 3).
That being said, I’ve not posted much here in quite some time because I set out on what was a relatively popular string of posts on the Financial Crisis, and the economy. I quit because it got a bit depressing. Here’s where we’re at: Despite Obama and McCain calling each other socialists…our country just took the first giant leap into socialism, when Bush allowed the Fed to buy up portions of the largest banks in our country. We will more than likely continue into a worsening economy, despite reports that you may be hearing to the contrary. (However, I bought gas for $2.42 yesterday! YAY CRISIS!) No amount of meddling by the Government will stop the laws of market from working, and oil (and the market in general) was overbought, so a price correction is needed.
Obama will probably win the election, and no amount of my moaning and groaning on this blog will stop that. God can stop it, as it is God who sets up the rulers of nations. I feel that, in addition to God’s will being worked out (and perhaps his judgment, hat tip to Lincoln Adams here), there are other nefarious forces at work . . . although I hesitate to use the word “conspiracy,” that are propelling Obama into power. Even Biden himself has referred to some group with the ability to manufacture a financial crisis, and has suggested that they will use this power during Obama’s first year in office:

“It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.” (emphasis mine)

If this is true, and if we’re already being warned by Joe that things will look bad, I can’t help but believe that this is a power play to take over America, and rip the remaining shreds of our free market away from us.
As you can see, my thoughts on these things aren’t exactly cheery. So, I’ve decided to go back to writing about things I like. I believe Jesus is going to return soon, and with the small audience my blog has, perhaps I can encourage Christians to go out and witness, and make a difference in this world. Also, I do this at my leisure, and because I find it enjoyable. So…if writing about something isn’t enjoyable, I’ll write about something that is.
What does this mean for TheLimitless.com? It means that you should expect from here on out, some thought provoking Biblical posts, and some geeky tech posts, with some online gaming stuff mixed in. I may continue to blog about politics occasionally…but I think I’ll steer away from it for now.
Now go out and enjoy the life you have…it’s not getting any better until you do!

Welcome to the U.S.S.A.

CaseyP| October 3, 2008 1:17 pm

October 3rd, 2008 will be a day that lives in infamy, for the last few free-minded people in the world, and a day lauded by the liberal socialist wannabes, the rich, and the powerful.  Today the house passed an even WORSE version of the bill they turned down on Monday.  Looks like we all should’ve saved our angry phone calls for today, because at least we would’ve had less pork-barrel spending, and government insurance scams (read FDIC insurance hike), on Monday.  Today marks a turning point in our history, as a free-market, capitalistic republic, to a socialist, appeasing, government run, welfare state.  America, welcome to global economic irrelevance.  Welcome to the United Socialist States of America.

Oh.  And “SALE ON TOY WOODEN ARROWS!  AISLE 5!”

Because I’m interested:

How much do you blog / engage in social networking (facebook myspace, etc) at work?  Is this becoming a more accepted trend int he workplace?

Speaking of blogging and workplaces…I’ve been running a blog and a slew of social network marketing campaigns for work, and another professional blog…which explains my lack of desire to blog here about things that I truly find interesting.

The Presidential Election, and the return of Christ

CaseyP| September 2, 2008 12:00 pm

So . . . being that Obama will likely drive our country further towards socialism, and further away from traiditional American (and Christian values), and probably contribute to the persecution of Christians, and ultimately bring about the Apocalypse, should he become President.  Who should a Christian vote for, should they wish to hasten the return of Christ?

Discuss.

That is all.

The Danger of Hip Seeker-Sensitive Churches

CaseyP| July 29, 2008 9:14 am

I’m not talking only about the danger of false doctrines, and getting a cake-and-ice-cream view of holiness, and living for God . . . oh no. I’m talking about actual physical and bodily danger. Apparently pastors, seeking to be young and hip, will go to ridiculous extremes to make their churches “cool.” And this can make for some dangerous (and hilarious) situations.

Which comes first . . . time with family, or time with God?

CaseyP| July 22, 2008 10:17 am

Back in my single days, I typically had all the time in the world to pray, and study the bible.  I participated in churchy things a few nights a week, and was generally an “involved” person, when it came to ministry and service.  Marriage and children changes a lot of things though, not the least of which is the amount of “free time” you have.
I’m not suggesting that God’s time should only fit in when you have some “free time” to spare.  I’m simply saying that my day is already full . . . and it’s difficult to spend 15 - 30 minutes in devotion with God, much less go out and follow my own advice of serving others, visiting the sick, and checking on people who’ve been missing church.
In general, my excuse is that my day is so hectic because I have small children, and by the time they’re in school, things will be back to a much more normal routine (and I will have a full night’s sleep as well), so I’ll have the time and energy to serve God more.  But while that comforts my guilt, it does little to dismiss the nagging truth in my mind:  I am too selfish of my time to serve God.  I have a 4 year old and an 8 month old.  The evenings are crazy.  I get home, play with kids until dinner time, then the baths and bed-time rituals start.  By the time both children are asleep, I’m exhausted, and so is my wife.  Looking at a typical evening, I just don’t see how to insert the availability to witness to someone, or minister to someone in need.  And I apparently don’t care enough to find a way to make it happen.  This concerns me.  How hard has my heart become if I don’t show care and love for others?  I’m choosing time with my family . . . time with my wife.  But how do you balance those?  I obviously cannot neglect my service to God, and outreach to people, but it’s wrong to neglect my family as well.
 . . . if only I were independently wealthy.  Any rich people out there want to donate to my cause? :)
