Murrah Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City), and significant risk of a firestorm. Most people in this ring left dead or seriously injured.

Christian Exodus

Friday, November 19th, 2004

    Problem: moral degeneration of our nation and the lack of any determination by the Republican Party to return our nation to its Constitutional moors

    Solution: Reform the local and state governments - we will relocate thousands of Christian constitutionalists to one particular sovereign State (South Carolina) so that our numbers will make an effective difference in electoral politics.

    Phase one: Currently selecting the first targeted city and county. We will encourage all 12,000 members toward this city and county.

    Phase 2 thru whenever - keep getting 12,000 people to move into selected cities. ChristianExodus.org will continue this process until the General Assembly of the State is squarely in the hands of Christian Constitutionalists.

Oh and they’re not a cult. The problem with moving lots of Christians into all these cities in SC is that you dilute the Christian population in other states, thus losing electoral votes and senate/congressional votes.

His latest video - November 1st is of some Halloween party he attended. Very funny to see him come onto stage and shake Phil Jackson’s hand.

Classic Neighbor vs Neighbor Battle

Friday, November 12th, 2004

Some single guy in Colorado has some hateful neighbors. Bottom line is the kids jump on their trampoline which is 8′ from his bedroom screaming and it’s too loud. When he goes out in the back yard to work, they come out and jump and scream.

Retraining orders, mediation, video cameras, theft, TV stories, conspiracies, lots of great stuff.

He even put up signs on his house - “No Screaming” signs and his website - www.feelmypain.net.

Mummies buried in rainy, hillside service

Friday, November 12th, 2004

Fifteen people Thursday witnessed the end of Pap and Molly’s long and storied journey to the grave.

The mummies, discovered last month in a defunct Ensley funeral home a half century after they were attractions there, were laid to rest at noon at Lakeview Cemetery on Highway 269 in Edgewater. Scott-McPherson Funeral Home donated its services to lead the short and respectful service.

“We stand over the gravesite of this couple, whose names we do not know,” the Rev. Jonathan McPherson said. “We realize that they had a mother and a father and were loved.”

About half of the attendees were from the funeral home or its associated church, St. John Baptist Church in Edgewater. Others were neighbors who just wanted to be there so that someone would remember the two souls.

“Closure,” Paulette Lille said. “I think it’s closure. To give them respect, they needed a burial. They don’t have any family.”

Some of the attendees had long been curious about the two mummies, remembering a time when people lined up to see them.

“I had heard a lot of talk about these people for years. My mother and father used to talk about them,” said Carrie Body, 78. “I was afraid to pass that funeral home because they would tell us there were people in there.”

During the service, Teresa Baker sang the hymn “Blessed Assurance,” and others read from the Bible.

The scene of the burial was a hillside in the woods, made muddy by the sprinkling rain, that is dotted with graves from as far back as the 1850s. Gravedigger Donald Butler said U.S. Steel donated the land to McPherson’s church. He has been working to clear and restore the area for several years.

For now, a wooden stake marks the grave until a tombstone can be engraved.

Members of one family in Birmingham says they know the names that should be inscribed there.

Jane Norman, who was born in the early 1940s, said her mother took her to see the mummies when she was a little girl. The man had a mustache and a cloth around his hips and a little bit of hair, she said. And the funeral director told them names: Richard Cloud and Molly Fleming.

“They said nobody came to get them after they got them ready to bury,” Norman said.

Records show that a Richard Cloud died in Jefferson County in 1926. There is no record of a Molly Fleming, although there were several Mary Flemings living here around that time. More research is necessary to determine if those names could be attached to the bodies.

“They were together in life, they were together in death,” he said.

Mummies Molly, Pap to be buried Thursday

Wednesday, November 10th, 2004

They may not yet have identities, but the two mummies found last month in an Ensley funeral home will soon have a final resting place.

The two, known as Pap and Molly, will be buried Thursday at noon at Lakeview Cemetery on Highway 269 near Edgewater, said the Rev. Jonathan McPherson of Scott-McPherson Funeral home.

Deputy Coroner Paul Price said investigators had obtained DNA evidence from the bodies and no longer needed them. With no other DNA to try to match with the bodies, they may never be identified, Price said.

McPherson said his funeral home often does services for the state at a low price. The funeral Thursday will be donated, as will the headstone, he said.

After years of standing in a corner and then lying in a back room, the bodies will have a proper graveside service.

There will be an obituary, and an inscription in the headstone, McPherson said.

“The names will be just as they identified them in the newspaper,” McPherson said. “They called them Molly and Pap.”
