What's Worse In The News ?

What's Worse?
 A Pew Forum Study last year found that Christians are being persecuted - by their government or by independent groups- in 131 countries of the 193 countries in the world.
 What's Worse?
 Germany is sending its poor senior citizens who can't afford private nursing homes to public nursing homes as far away as Thailand and the Phillipines to take advantage of lower costs. Can you imagine being shipped to the Phillipines, thousands of miles away from your family and friends and then having to live in a foreign culture with a foreign language you don't know? So cold. So cruel. So Germanic.
  What's Worse?
  An agency of the corrupt and hostile to the USA United Nations has just passed a treaty giving governments ( as if they had to ask ) new powers to close access to the Internet to their own people. Russia and China were behind passing the treaty, and the vote caught the U.S. government officials by surprise. After Benghazi, a lot of that seems to be going around our pampered, lazy government officials when it comes to people outside of America, but it's a totally different story when it comes to whomping down on Americans. Why then  it's three felonies a day prosecuted even if you know the people are innocent. Countries like Russia and China now have the U.N.'s blessing to survey Internet traffice and persecute nonconformity.
 I've had my fill. Hope you have too.  Peter Nickerson
