QUOTE(Snoopy @ Apr 3 2007, 06:02 PM) [snapback]189855[/snapback]  ......I agree!! Please keep the stories coming...!!One other short comment: Most of us know the story of Desmond Doss who was awarded the Medal of Honor. It has sometimes been either stated that he was the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Medal of Honor, or that he was the only such person. Those statements need further clairfication. Doss, may not have been the first. A Roman Catholic priest, who was a Navy chaplain, may have preceeded Doss. But, that issue may be a subect for debate on the issue of whether or not that priest was acutally a conscientious objector. In any case, Doss was not the only such person. During the Viet Nam war, an African-American, conscientious objector, Baptist, combat medic was awarded the Medal of Honor. I have forgotten his name, for which I am very sorry. It should be noted that he lived to recieve that award. -------------------- Gregory Matthews posts here under the name "Observer."

NOTE: For those who would tell me that I was racist because I identified the person awarded the Medal of Honor as an African American, and I have been told such before, I willl simply say: In a nation built by people who traveled here from other countries, it is O.K. to point out the contributions made to our society by people from various ethnic, racial, and cultural groups. In the hospital where I work, we celebrate the diversity of our nation in January. When I am asked to have a part in a formal program I typically work into my part major contributions made to this country and our life today by people that are little known and recognized, and whose relatives may have first come to this land as slaves. Well, off of my soap box, and back to the issues of 3-ABN in this section. -------------------- Gregory Matthews posts here under the name "Observer."

Just my opinion Observer, but thanks for the off topic posts.
 It makes the rest of the reading more yogi-like (bearable I mean  ).

QUOTE(Truly Blonde @ Feb 1 2007, 08:06 AM) [snapback]174301[/snapback] One thing I have noticed that is different. In the Review and Herald and in our union paper every month there are full page ads for the Hope channel. I am encouraged that our church seems to be wanting to let the people know that there is an alternative. This is a good sign. A few days ago we saw the April issue of the Norwegian Union paper, Advent Nytt. During the past year or so the SDA church in Norway has used the Scandinavian branch of 3ABN to transmit their daily program, but we are told that the new name of the Norwegian TV is HOPE Channel Norway. In the future they will be closer knit to HOPE and use their programs. This is also a good sign.

Doug had better watch his step and do this exactly right. Unless he's not the person we see on TV and all he wants is more control and his own satellite channel. Power corrupts.

Save 3ABN.com has had over 21,000 hits in the past 4 days. It appears that the merger ploy has only drawn MORE people to the site. Not what Danny had planned, I'm quite confident.

There is a new letter on http://www.save3abn.com/letters-of-critici...lfred-smith.htm.
Does anyone know who Alfred Smith is?  IMO, I do not see anything productive in posting this email.

I think the writer stated "let's see if you have the guts" to post it or respond to it. |

IMO, I do not see anything productive in posting this email. It is difficult to tell whether this letter was written tongue-in-cheek or seriously... but whichever it is, I think it summarizes and verbalizes the attitudes of various Dannydefenders that we have seen both here on BSDA and met in real life. While no one person might make all of those statements, and those who are critical of efforts to expose evil and expel it "from the camp" might not make them so bluntly... yet in essence these things are are but verbalizations of the attitudes which... when stripped of their cloak of piety in which they are usually covered... spawn the various criticisms we have heard. I doubt that anyone who really thought the thoughts that are expressed there would openly express them, so it is my conclusion that this is someone who is in actuallity fully supportive of what the save3abn website stands for, but has chosen this mode of communication in order to hopefully catch the attention of those who oppose save3abn efforts and open their minds to what they are really supporting when they make their complaints. It will be interesting to see what kind of reactions various individuals have to this letter.
