"As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be at the coming of the 'Son of Man.' "

Your passport wording will change this year:
The words “mother” and “father” will be removed from U.S. passport applications and replaced with gender neutral terminology, the State Department says“

The words in the old form were ‘mother’ and ‘father,’” said Brenda Sprague, deputy assistant Secretary of State for Passport Services. "They are now ‘parent one’ and ‘parent two.’"

A statement on the State Department website noted: “These improvements are being made to provide a gender neutral description of a child’s parents and in recognition of different types of families.” The statement didn't note if it was for child applications only.

Only in the topsy-turvy world of left-wing political correctness could it be considered an ‘improvement’ for a birth-related document to provide less information about the circumstances of that birth,” Family Research Council president Tony Perkins wrote in a statement to Fox News Radio. “This is clearly designed to advance the causes of same-sex ‘marriage’ and homosexual parenting without statutory authority, and violates the spirit if not the letter of the Defense of Marriage Act.”
Robert Jeffress, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Dallas, agreed. “It’s part of an overall attempt at political correctness to diminish the distinction between men and women and to somehow suggest you don’t need both a father and a mother to raise a child successfully,” said Jeffress. “(This decision) was made to make homosexual couples feel more comfortable in rearing children.”

Another note of concern:
Set to premiere Monday, January 17 at 9:00 p.m. Central/Mountain, MTV’s new sex-and-drug dramaSkins promises to be one of the most explicit series on basic cable…and MTV is sparing no measure in promoting the show to teenagers. ► more

Although there is some 'good news' this week:
Sirius/XM satellite radio is one of the many features offered by Ford in its cars…but some programming, like Playboy Radio and Howard Stern’s sexually graphic talk show, is not appropriate for minors. Now, the auto maker is allowing parents to block explicit content from teens with its MyKey system. The new feature will debut later this year as standard equipment on the Ford Taurus and Ford Explorer and will eventually be available in most Ford and Lincoln vehicles.

This is merely the most recent demonstration of Ford’s responsible corporate behavior. The company has consistently sponsored family-friendly television programming, while avoiding offensive shows. In 2008, Ford not only refused to sponsor the CBS sex orgy show Swingtown – it actually warned its dealerships to avoid the program. Ford’s consistent application of high standards regarding the entertainment it sponsors placed them on the PTC’s list of Top Ten TV Advertisers in 2010. The PTC thanks Ford for its choices in favor of decent entertainment. ►more

We definitely are living in the last days. Are you ready to meet God? You will one way (at the Rapture of the Church) or the other (at the White Throne Judgment). Which will it be?

It sure looks like "a good day to fly."
