Totally on Facebook

Dear all who used to read this with some regularity. I am pretty much posting everyday on Facebook rather than here. Facebook is easier and more convenient, and more folks are accessing church information there like never before. As a result, this blog will be sparse until the time when I make the difficult decision to end it altogether. If you would like to follow me on Facebook, simply befriend me at www.facebook.com/dbocock.

And that's it!

This may be a late time for me to thank you all for reading this blog but, Thanks just the same.

See you Facebook!

Join me on Facebook

As you can see, I am seldom on my blog anymore. You can join me in daily conversations and read my rants and insights by befriending me on Facebook. To do so, go to http://www.facebook.com/dbocock and befriend me.

What Truman Did

I found this post on Harvey Fierstein's Facebook update just now. It is as applicable today as when Truman issued his executive order back then:

Does anyone remember what Harry Truman did? He knew it was the right thing to integrate the armed forces. Congress threatened action against him. The Chiefs of Staff threatened to quit. He said, "I will see your resignations on my desk." And then he integrated the armed forces with an executive order. There were NO resignations. Congress did not act against him. And he changed the world by doing the right thing.

Umm...I don't think they seriously thought this one through

What the Bible says about Marriage

Here is some bona fide satire. Still, it's worth watching. And you just gotta love Ms. Betty Bowers. (smile)

Another great video

The whole idea of voting by majority rule to take away someone's rights would be appalling to most if we were talking about anything except gay marriage. This video does a nice job in explaining that.
