This weeks Wacky Wednesday, isn't so much funny as it is completely disturbing. This story bothers me, not because this man went to prison for breaking the law; I understand that. He needed to serve jail time for stealing money from innocent people.

This just shows where our society's morals are. We value money more than human life and that is sad.
My Pastor used this quote in his sermon this past Sunday, and it is so true!!
"Men, are great not by the virtue of their wealth, but by the wealth of their virtues."
