Now I'm really wondering about the benefit of blogging because of no response. LOL

Just whining!

But, speaking of responses. There are many messages in the world. Their validity often depends on the response of the hearers. If enough people like the message, the message is deemed valid or even highly prized.

Take global warming for example. . . Al Gore was internationally recognized for his message on global warming. I recently saw a picture of a starving child in the Sudan who couldn't walk and a vulture was waiting for the child to die so it could feast.

That message got a lot less recognition than the plight of the polar bears' shrinking ice. So I'm thinking that the validity of a message should NOT be judged by it's reception.

The source of the message should be considered and we should discern whether the subject matter is of the utmost importance. Last I checked, while animals are important, they are not more important than people.

What did people who are worried about global warming think would happen when we add billions of people to the planet?

We've also had major tsunami's that actually changed the earth's orbit. That certainly will affect global weather conditions.

There is one message whose validity is certain and timeless. That message is about Jesus, the Son of God. His message? God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever should believe on Him would not perish, but be saved.

John 3:16

I'm commenting, lol :) I thought the same things about people saving the animals---why so many stupid commercials and movies about saving polar bears and NOT so much so about saving starving people around the world? Seems backwards to me. But that's just my own opinion.
