THE LAST FULL MEASURE


It is 7:00 a.m. edt and foggy out at 58.5 degrees F. The fox terrier is still in bed, sleeping late.

Today is the day set aside for honoring our sacred war dead. We decorated the graves of all veterans in three local graveyards on Saturday. One that we placed a flag at was a Korean War KIA, who won the Silver Star. If you have ever strolled thru a cemetery and noted the inscriptions on the stones, you will note that pretty much 99.99% of the text that deals with non- family life achievements deals with the person's service record. These are the things that define our lives: family and service to God and Country.

The Last Outpost salutes all veterans of all wars on this Memorial Day, and we pray for the safe return of all our patriot soldiers serving in foreign posts.

Allah or Jesus? By Rick Mathes

The Muslim religion in the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States, especially in the minority races!!!

Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs.

I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Man gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video. After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.

When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: "Please, correct me if I'm wrong but I understand that most Islmams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven.

If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?" There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, "Non-believers!"

I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in Heaven. Is that correct?"

The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of "a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar."
He sheepishly replied, "Yes."

I then stated, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope
John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in Heaven. The Imam was speechless.

I continued, "I also have problem with being your 'friend' when you and
your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to Heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to Heaven and He wants you to be there with me?"

You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame.
Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S.
to elect the President!

I think everyone in the US should be required to read this but with the
liberal justice system, liberal media, and the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized.

Please pass this on to all your e-mail contacts. This is a true story and
the author, Rick Mathes, is a well known leader in prison ministry.

Goat, the GAtors had the NUMBER ONE ranked recruiting class in the country. Spurrier did well at USC, Bama scored big with a hot new coach...
