We prayed, and God answered prayer in a way that we thank Him for. Go and read HIS response to the post that I previously had in this place; it is under “Comments” (to this post)—and when you’re there, welcome him back home!
This phrase comes from the 1978 "Jonestown massacre" in which most members of the Peoples Temple cult, blindly following their leader Jim Jones, committed suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid.
Radically Tolerant - of all people, irrespective of race, faith, circumstance. As a person, you will be treated with the respect and dignity you deserve as an individual created in the image of God.
Radically Intolerant - of slipshod reasoning, emotion without intellectual substance, bad ideas, lazy thinking, cowardly ad hominem attacks, the preposterous notion that 9/11 is some government conspiracy (proceed directly to the Loony Bin; do not pass "Go"; do not collect $200), the designated hitter, and the Dallas Cowboys.

I’m BAAAAAAAAACK!
This is Bob. I’ve finally come home after seven (!) weeks in the hospital.
I’m excited to be back with my family.
I’m very weak and I still get a little queasy in the stomach at times. I am to see a specialist Monday to check my ears—I can’t hear very well and we want to make sure that the trauma of the surgery and long time in ICU did not cause permanent damage to my hearing.
I’m able to walk short distances and do short stints of physical therapy. I can climb our stairs in order to go to bed and take a shower—though I need supervision in case I fall.
I talked to my surgeon this morning. He told me that if I were older I would not have survived. He attributed my making it through to my faith and the faith of friends and family. So, I thank you for your prayers!! I am absolutely sure that God heard your prayers—they were powerful and effective.
I will be recuperating from this for a long time. I have no idea when I will be living a normal life. Sometimes this is daunting and depressing, but then I remember that I’ve been pulled out of certain death and given a new opportunity to live a life dedicated to glorifying God in every moment. My wife has been spared being a widow with three young children to raise, and my children still have their daddy. Blessings upon blessings!!
Thanks again for your prayers!

Take it easy.
