Cadences of God

I promised a copy of the John McCain interview on TBN if I could find it. I did find it. It is clear from the interview that he feels very uncomfortable with his surroundings. (I do not blame him.) However, he seems to hold his own in speaking about his faith when he clearly in not used to doing so.  

• 56k version.
• 100k version.
• 300k version.

This interview is most notable for two stories that he tells about his time as a prisoner of war. The first is his story about the Vietnamese prison guard who was a secret Christian and reveals the quality of his faith to Senator McCain. The other is the story of the first Christmas that he and the other inmates of the Hanoi Hilton spend together.

Again, I offer the same sort of comment I did about the John Edwards interview. When these candidates do interviews on religious venues, you get a change to see a side of them that they do not usually reveal while they are speaking about policy or foreign policy. A dimension of their character is revealed in such interviews which other news outlets cannot access.

                    old P&G logo                             new P&G logo

Today, Procter and Gamble Co. won a lawsuit against Amway. A Court of Law in the United States declared that P&G is, in fact, not Satanist. I kid you not. Some judge and jury had to decide this.

There have been urban legends for years that their P&G logo can, when look at a certain way, be seen to have a 666. (Personally, I haven’t seen it, but I am assured that it is there.) Their former logo with a moon and stars started this theory. It was taken to be Satanic based upon the passage from Revelation 12:1 which states: “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.” There have been similar legends that P&G executives have appeared on television talk shows (in particular Phil Donahue) and declared their love for the Devil. Also, that some, undisclosed amount of their profits go to the Church of Satan.

Today, Procter and Gamble was awarded $19,250,000 from Amway for slander and Amway was told to cut out the rumors mongering.

Folks, I couldn’t make this stuff up if I wanted to.

Personally, I can understand where this rumor might have come from. My 18 month old daughter uses Pampers (a P&G product). Sometimes, there are things in there which must have come from Satan himself.

It also should no to unmentioned that P&G still sponsors many soap operas, including As the World Turns, Guiding Light, the Young and the Restless. I’ve always suspect that something Satanic was going on there.

But, thanks to a jury in Salt Lake City, I now know that all these suspicious were unfounded. Thanks for clearing that one up! Now all I have to worry about are the Freemasons . . .
