Don Locke: Lookin Thru Bifocals

Things and stuff worth mentioning, maybe; keeping in mind this is an opinion column.

You noticed? They are flooding TV with space stuff now. Recently our U.S. Vice-President made a TV speech on the 50th anniversary of the moon walk- saying, “America ought to be leader in space again.”

Well, another step in mankind, for we already have in place a joint-venture with Russia involving a space station. For, there are now hundreds of space satellites in orbit; the results of our trip to the moon 50 years ago, keeping in mind our astronauts needed to take along: oxygen, food, and water, and I suppose clean underwear and socks… without which I reckon a space suit could get pretty gamey after a time.

We also want to recollect the 50 years ago moon sliot, cost the American tax- payers $24 million dollars just to get the space shuddle off the lauching pad. Now, we could probably multiply that by 10-times, given the loss of the dollar-value price then: (too much printing of money without gold backing for each paper dollar printed.)

However, the positive side is that our satellite systems have brought TV communications, including the gospel, to just about every nook-and-cranny all over the world.

The Bible tells us that when people all over the world hear the gospel (the good news), the time is near when Christ will return:

(Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John): “So into all the world unto every creature… (with the good news).

As for space travel, one of the wisest: most knowledgible newscasters to come down the pike, said in a commentary: “The ultimate mystery does not lie in outer space, but in inner space, on Earth, in inner man.” - Eric Savareid.

Watch those maf fits, scientists tells us a big, creek-slung-stump-whopped mad fit, causes the brain to reduce 34 different poisons (toxins) into the human body, OUCH!

Kindest regards...
