30 Years Ago This Month Another Great Man Brought About Change



It was 30 Years ago this month Reverend Jim Jones of the Peoples Temple dispatched over 900 of his followers to the great beyond by mixing Kool-Aid and cyanide together. Jim was a great orator who along with his charisma could have entire crowds in tears just with his words. I am so glad that we don't have any public figures today that have this kind of power of people that they just blindly follow, and believe every word that comes out of his mouth. It would definitively be a shame if that person was elected president of the most powerful country on the face of the earth.
Jim Jones preyed on the poor, weak, and down trodden to amass his power over them. Promises of no financial worries, were made to them. they were told to give up all there possessions and money to the church and the church would take care of them. I am just so glad that this could never happen in this day and time.

Cool New Toys

I saw some articles pertaining to the new line of Jesus action figures and went on a search to find them. What I found was a world of new action figures the likes of which I would have never dreamed of. A perusal of the following link will I think be a enlightenment.

http://www.accoutrements.com/actionfigures/index.html

My favorites so far have to be the Oscar Wilde (young boys not included), The Albino Bowler, and Pope Innocent III.

An old friend of mine has a web site, and it gave me an idea for a new line of action figures I would like to see: "The Great Cult Leaders Of The World". You could start with the originals like Jesus, Mohammad, Abraham, and Buddha. Then work your way all the way up to the classics like Jones, Moon, Manson, and Applewhite. All were great leaders of people and all did great things. Why shouldn't these heroes of the mind be honored in such a way?

If I'm late to the party on this, and these action figures are already on the market, let me know and send me a link. If not get Todd Mcfarlane on the phone and get these on the production line as soon as possible.
