The conquest of my holistic remedy indoctrination of the world has begun. Jill was getting groceries yesterday, and the cashier sneezed and said, “Oh, my allergies are killin’ me!” Jill responded, “You may want to try taking some honeycomb. I know it sounds weird, but my husband took it this spring and his allergies have been cured…”

Love the picture. Wondering what you thought about the whole Starbucks controversy:
Just thinking to myself... What is Starbucks thinking? Not long ago they printed a Pro-homosexuality quote on their cups and now this:
“Why in moments of crisis do we ask God for strength and help? As cognitive beings, why would we ask something that may well be a figment of our imaginations for guidance? Why not search inside ourselves for the power to overcome? After all, we are strong enough to cause most of the catastrophes we need to endure.”

Hmmmm...That's the best case of placibo effect I've ever heard.
About the honeycomb, where did you get it and how often do you take it? Is it honeycomb "grown" in KY? How's it taste? Was it an abandoned honeycomb, was there larva in it, or what?
About Starbucks, from what I can tell, they have all sorts of opinions on their cups. Anti-God, Pro-God, anti-evolution, pro-evolution, etc. Perhaps they have an overall bias, though, I don't know.
My favorite quote on those cups is from a guy from Oshkosh, WI:
(Roughly) "Scientists tell us that we only use 5% of our brains. But if they only use 5% of their brains, why should we believe them?"
Yeah, I haven't heard much on the Starbucks controversy. I doubt that too many people base their worldview on a cup of coffee, at least I hope not.
I actually found the honeycomb in the dead body of a lion I had killed with my bare hands (although
some would claim that I get it at a "all-natural" health food store a 1/2 mile from my apartment). It's produced in Indiana.
There's honey in the comb, so it tastes like honey. If you ate the comb by itself, I would liken it to eating a wax candle. I just eat a little chunk of it on bread every morning. I try not to chew it too much because it gets stuck in the teeth.
If people only use 5% of their brain then possibly they actually are basing their worldview from a quote on a coffee cup :)
Starbucks welcomes comments regarding these quotes on their website or through brochures in their stores. One of my favorite quotes was one from Rick Warren, he used a quote from his book, "Purpose Driven Life":
"You are not an accident. Your parents may not have planned you, but God did. He wanted you alive and created you for a purpose. Focusing on yourself will never reveal your real purpose. You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense. Only in God do we discover our origin, our identity, our meaning, our purpose, our significance and our destiny."

That's a good quote, Tina. Although I would have to add to it, "You were made by God and for God and for other people." God only wants to be enough for us, not all. We were made for Him (first) and others. Perhaps Rick Warren has left room to expand on his "made for God" concept in future works. (He may have already, I don't really follow Rick Warren.)
Oh wait, this post was supposed to be about world honeycomb domination. YOU'LL NEVER MAKE A BELIEVER OUT OF ME!
