~In The Beginning~


In the beginning, as we all know, God created Heaven & Earth.
And He brought forth spinach, and green beans, & carrots, & cauliflour, and so many more fresh fruits and vegetables of all kinds and colors for the nourishment of His children, so that they might live long & healthy lives.

And God said: "It is Good".

Then Satan brought forth Krispy Kreme donuts and Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, and asked: "Would you like some chocolate with that ?" And man answered, "Yes, CHOCOLATE". And woman added, "And some SPRINKLES, too !" And both man and woman gained 10 pounds.

And Satan said: "It is better".

So God created healthy yogurt, that woman might satisfy her sweet cravings, yet keep her shapely figure that man found so fair. And Satan offered bleached white flour and corn syrup, and jelly rolls and candy bars of every size and flavor, and sodas & alcoholic beverages to quench their thirst. And woman grew in girth from size 6 to size 14. And Satan smiled confidently.

So God said: "Try my fresh green salads !"
And Satan added Thousand Island dressing, & buttery croutons, with buttered garlic toast on the side.
And both man and woman unfastened their belts and bulged all the more.

So God said: "I send you more fresh vegetables, and healthy virgin olive oils in which to cook them to your liking." But Satan, not to be outdone, brought forth blend shortenings with trans fats and high cholesterol in which to deep fry man's beloved fried fish and string potatoes, and chicken fried steaks so large they needed a separate platter to serve them on. And white cream gravy to cover them with.

So God offered a light, white, fluffy cake He called "Angel Food".
Satan added chocolate and created "Devil's Food".

God sighed once again, and seeing the weight gained by His human creations, brought forth running shoes and gym equipment with which to work off the pounds from all their excesses.
But Satan gave them stereos and cable TV, and then a remote control so as to eliminate the need to toil for the channel selections.

God once again brought forth the potato ... low in fat & brimming with nutrition.
But Satan encouraged them to remove the healthful skins & slice them into thin wafers, to be deep fried as chips and heavily salted.

God offered lean beef and chicken so as to consume less harmful calories & gain more muscle-building protein.
But Satan created McDonalds 99-cent double cheeseburger meals and KFC chicken, preserved with MSG, then suggested: "You want fries with that ?"
And man answered, "YES !" And woman added, "...And Super-Size them !"
Satan smiled ..... "No problem !" .....

So both man and woman spent hours and hours at a time eating fatty burgers & devils food cake to satisfy their laziness and hunger until one day man discovered Cardiac Arrest.

So God created the quadruple bypass procedure to once again save his creations.
Satan followed up with insurance companies and the HMO.

And eventually he added Medicare, Social Security, and the "Plan D" Medicare Prescription Drug Insurance Plan.  And ultimately even conjured up an evil new Marxist-inspired dictatorial ruler to socialize our entire medical care industry and make us even further dependent on our government for our health and well being.  Even MANDATED our 100% participation in the hopelessly cost prohibitive taxation scam at the risk of ever-increasing fines if we chose to decline it.  This disgusting desecration of the greatest healthcare system on earth continues to destroy the fabric of our economy and our hope for our future even today.




We now call out to God yet again to save us from ourselves ONE MORE TIME !
