We are in the Last Days, that Jesus Christ warned us were going to come upon us in His written Word. He even addresses this drought, its before He returns to Judge the world in sin and righteousness. I know you think your sins are way more fun than obeying the God who made you. But let me ask you this: are you sins so luscious they are worth burning for for all eternity? Your time is running out. Oh, since you love to worship bob dylan instead of the Lord of Hosts who gave you life and will also take it from you, why dont you watch your false idol/god Bob Dylan right here and listen to him say, with absolute regret and disgust at himself, that he literally SOLD HIS SOUL TO SATAN, TO BE GIVEN SUCCESS IN THIS WORLD: [link to www.youtube.com] Someone please embed, if you think its time mad bob sees the truth. God bless you mad bob. I loveyou. And Jesus loves you. JESUS LOVES YOU. |

I call BS. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 63122492 United States 06/01/2015 07:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | KVTA News Sunday May 31, 2015 KVTA's Perry Van Houten has been checking out the impact of the drought in the Los Padres National Forest. He has talked with officials with the U-S Forest Service and observed first hand what's going on in the Ventura County backcountry. It will be featured in a story by Perry that will be broadcast on AM 1590 Monday morning, but here's a preview with a photo from Perry... "Millions of trees in Southern California’s national forests—including thousands of trees in the mountains of Ventura County—are dying due to a beetle invasion brought on by the drought. Los Padres National Forest officials said they’re seeing trees weakened by the lack of rainfall, and due to that they’re seeing increased bark beetle activity, and a lot of trees fading out and dying. The U.S. Forest Service said it’s because of the lack of water, a tree’s main defense against the pests. “What happens when a bark beetle attacks a healthy tree is the tree will produce sap which will then hopefully expel the beetle and keep it from getting in and attacking the tree,” forester Greg Thompson told KVTA News. On some of the affected trees, Thompson says they’re seeing no sap production. The Forest Service has estimated that 2-million trees have died in Southern California because of the drought. Some 12-million have perished statewide. Areas with high tree mortality include the Mt. Pinos Ranger District along with lower elevation sites in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties." |

Typical communist thought process. |
