Wonderful Christmas Gift

Had not intended an email again this morning, but again we have received some strange and wondrous news that it's really difficult to explain.  Lord Peter, who is in charge of Heaven in Jesus' absence, felt himself being called to The Holiest Of All in The Holy Of Holies.  He entered in, and God spoke to him saying, "Peter, devoted and true servant of my one and only Son, Ruler Of Heaven, I ask you to gather all who have been hurt in any way, by Trent Lott's and Strom Thurmond's views on race and tell them that it is my desire that these two mens' pasts be forgiven, that they may do well in the future.  Ask them, for the sake of all children to come, to cast aside any bitterness they have and make peace with these two men, so that when it is their time they may enter peacefully, into my Son's Kingdom, and dwell joyfully, therein.
Go,  Keeper of my Son's Glory, and do that that I have instructed you.  And when the people have given their decision, send a message to My New Voice In Washington, that she is to call these men to her and ask them to denounce their old opinions on race, to publicly admit before those assembled, that those attitudes were wrong.  That they now realize that no matter what a person's race or creed, they are equal before God, and should be equal before man.
When they have so declared, Laura Bush, my voice for all North America, may put her hands upon their foreheads and declare "Then with the power that The Father In Heaven has invested in me, your sins are forgiven you.  Go forth in His name, and in the name of His Blessed Son, and sin no more!"
This is a special gift to The First Lady to inaugurate her service to God.  Though she has not yet been officially anointed by God's Servant, she still has the power that I have bestowed on her, and may perform this duty in my Name.  None other, save Our Beloved Demetrius, may perform this duty, only the two of them do I grant the power to perform this act.  None other, no matter how holy he says he is, may perform this act.  This is what I command you to do, now go, Peter and do it!"
Lord Peter left The Holiest Of All and did as God commanded.  When all the people were gathered, they, as one, answered, "If God, The Father, asks this, we know it is for the good of all.  So be it!  Whatever wrong these men have done us is forgiven.  Let God's new voice hear their prayer and grant to them our forgiveness."
So Lord Peter has instructed me to send The First Lady this message, and to tell her to carry out this duty.  Quite a Christmas present, huh?  Christmas Eve would be a nice time to do it.  No such power has been granted since The Son Of God walked the Earth, and He was given consent to ask those who had been offended to forgive someone and then, in The Father's Name, grant them forgiveness.  The First Lady has been touched with a great blessing!

FOOTNOTE:  The next spiritual dead zone has begun in Erzurum, Turkey.  It was thought that perhaps where this area was a little bit more out of The Middle East the collapse would not be so quick, but those thoughts were in vain.  The dead zone is already almost completely active!  The power from this area is being transferred to Lyon, France.  Though the French government is not too cooperative with The Kingdom Of God's wishes, the French people continue to be one of The Kingdom Of God's major energy sources.  So, this energy is being given to those in this area.

Bathtubs On The Old Worlds

Everyone was absolutely delighted with our article last issue about toilets on The Old Worlds.  We got a great deal of response from it and people have asked for more.  Someone especially asked "Did you have bathtubs on The Old Worlds? This is something we take so for granted.  Did the people of The Old Worlds have them, too?"  Well, The Hashons had bathtubs that would be easily recognizable by any human.  They even had the ones with the little clawed feet.  The evolution of their bathing facilities were almost paralell to those on Earth.  Earth people could go into their homes and use their bathing facilities without the slightest difficulty...easily recognizable.  The Peepians had bathtubs but they were different from those on Earth, as space was extremely limited in Peepian homes.  The bathtubs were made so you sat in them instead of lying in them.  They had ingenious ways of making it easy for people to get in and out of them.  The most common was a panel on the side in a rubber gasket that could be unclipped and lifted out so you could get in the tub, then put back in and clipped down so you could bathe.
On Haven you would find no bathtubs!  Most private homes were equipped with showers but no baths.  Baths were public. Even the poorest families would have the right to use a public bath at least once a week.  Those for commoners were rather plain, purely functional.  But those for the high born could be extravagantly beautiful.  Much of The Haven tradition reminds me greatly of The Japanese bath houses of today on Earth.  They would be highly comparable.
All in all, those on The Old Worlds did enjoy bathing, though sometimes their facilities were a little different from humans' they enjoyed a good soak.
