Much to look forward too

So I was reading an article about reopening much of New Orleans for residents to start heading back in. One of regions that will start recieving residents again is the French Quarter, which suffered minimal damage from the flood. And hopes are high for commerce to start again, as one businessman puts it:

"If we get power, we can bring the dancers in and start working," said Javier Rosado, who's been helping clean the Big Daddy's strip club so it can reopen.

What do you say to crap like that?! If men getting their jollies off has displaced our desire to see people's lives rebuilt and families brought back together, why not just keep the area closed? This makes me absolutely furious. "And this is His command, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he commanded us, whoever keeps his commandments abides in him and he in them." 1 John 3:23

Believe in Jesus, God incarnate, and learn to truely love your neighbor.

There was an article on the news this week about disillusioned Red Cross workers in Topeka. They'd gone to New Orleans to help with disaster relief, and were put to work cleaning up a casino! :)

That sort of stuff just rips me up! I get so angry! How can people just be disregarded like that?
