This guy doesn’t thinks He is anything like the one to whom the guy who sat next to him in the restaurant prayed, and he is intensely and passionately convinced about it too. HT: Christdot. So who does your God look like?

From one of the contributors to my former pastor’s blog: “Has the War on Terror Morphed into a War on Dissent?”
If you don’t already know about this, Scott Parkin, from Texas, had been visiting Australia on a valid visitor’s visa. While in there, he had been staging peaceful protests in front of Halliburton’s Sydney corporate offices, dressed as a pig to illustrate Halliburton’s executives with their snouts in the trough profiteering in the war. He also gave workshops in peace activism and “on non-violent methods of suggesting there might be moral dimensions to the behaviour of governments and corporations.” (What a novel idea, eh?). Perhaps it is because of the adverse publicity he created against the company, or the government, or both, he was assessed to be a security threat to Australia and was deported. He was also slapped with a $11,000 bill for the airflight, the law enforcement officers who accompanied him, their stay in L.A. and their return flight back to Australia. Interesting, huh?
