I was listening to the news. If it can be called "news". Here are some problems I see with the news.
First of all the news is not new. As a child I was told Columbus discovered America. That was around the year 1492. Yet it was news to me. Yesterday there was a murder. It happens too often. Murder is no longer news. I can predict the news. Tomorrow there will be another. There was one whom gave out of there excess. "Please accept this car as part of my tax write of...I..I mean as part of my gratitude for you little people making me great. Take that Oprah! That is not news. Not news worthy. There are examples of news worthy generosity found in the Holy Bible. I can think of two. The first example which comes to mind is the example of the woman who gave her last two cents. As opposed to the rich man whom paid the minimum tithe. The other is Jesus. Jesus gave his life for me. And you.
In this short paragraph I have covered all news. Human hate and human interest. Some may find solace and certainly the talking heads will be hurt by Ecclesiastes 1:9, "There is nothing new under the sun "Son".
