Quote of the week

When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am your God – Leviticus 19:33-34.

Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household,  built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.  In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.  And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit – Ephesians 2:19-22.

She had very stiff competition….

Sorry, I can’t resist. A friend sent me an email with a story from De Standaard, a Belgian newspaper, which reports Britney Spears was voted the mots foolish American of the year in an April 1 Opinion Survey. Paris Hilton was second and Michael Jackson third. But George Bush (4) and Dick Cheney (6) was not far behind. I suspect this was an April Fools Joke by the newspaper, but it was fun to contemplate such a list for South Africa.

I imagine Jacob Zuma would be on the list. Maybe Jackie Selebi. The odd Miss South Africa if anyone could remember their names. Judge Motata who claimed to have had “a cup of tea” before crashing his car through a wall and swearing at the bystanders? Anyone admitting to working in a Home Affairs Office. And, of course, the presenters of Top Billing. Who else?

UPDATE: This story seems to be true as it is being reported on several Internet sites.
