 I would probably open a McDonald's- (or 2) in liberal states

and put a TV or 2 in said McD

and it would be on FOX News all the time

and it would be open 24 hours

the libs would probably try to strangle me but-- hey, I am used to their persecution

I mean, sometimes I like to sit and watch the news while I drink my coffee and where I used to live, I was able to do that because the guy who ran the McD there was a Fox fan. . sigh.. those were the good old days.

I once tried to get cable but the cable company told me that .. OK, their paperwork indicated that I have to agree to rate hikes and that the hikes would be unpredictable. I am thinking WHAT?

I asked the person "Do people really sign these kinds of contracts?"

and of course the answer was yeh

well, I am not going to sign that kind of thing. Even if I were rich, I would not sign such a hideous agreement

In any case, the reason I would do this is because I have found that there is actually something worse than not being educated and informed:

being MISINFORMED

and people in lib states who only  watch cnn... OMG.. they are not only being misinformed they are being brainwashed.. OK, yeh, that is redundant..

So you would do what you can with that money to promote politics? 

Why not use that money to aid the cause of Christ? Spend it on programs that spread the gospel, or help Christian refugees etc?

Or use it to help widows and orphans as the bible tells us to?

it wouldn't take the whole million dollars to "promote politics" as you call it by opening this kind of place

believe it or not, Fox has stories on all kinds of topics, not all of it is political.

We should be informed about what Iran is up to. Those people are scary (the mullahs, not the ordinary people who suffer a lot there..). How are we going to know that Iran is trying to start a war w/ us (and I get the feeling they are) if we never watch this kind of story on the news? And I am sorry, but a LOT OF PEOPLE I run into do not watch news at all. And how are we supposed to KNOW how to do the work of Christ if we don't even know what is going on? Yes, we CAN see the homeless right in front of us (esp in lib states/cities) so you don't have to watch the news to know about that story (somewhat know about it..) but anyway, yeh, t hen there is this

uninformed people who only watch romance movies or whatever the heck and never watch the news or read a book

are boring as hell

w/ the $$ made from McD

I could help SO many people

and also, I would build a pay shower in the back of the McD so EVERYONE, homeless or otherwise, who needs a shower can take one. Travelers often need that as well. And maybe I could open a day center for homeless people.. I mean, people who own a Mc D franchise make $$. I think it is stupid to take a large sum of $$ and just spend it cars and houses rather than a way to make more $$$

I would first pray to God to give me guidance and direction on how He would want me to use it for His glory.

yes, that goes w/ o saying

or usually does anyway. I have done impulsive things bc I was sure it was the right thing to do, only to find out.. Hey, Knucklehead, you didn't pray long enough!

(some not so pleasant things happened to confirm that thought but of course, life as a followr of Jesus is not a bed of thorn-less roses even when you do pray sufficiently b4 doing something)

that said, I just know God would approve of that plan.  He may (like me) not like everything about Fox News but I know He likes it for the most part bc they appreciate TRUTH and facts and things like due process and honesty and etc... whereas the cattyNews[not]Network.. just the opposite!

you could also call it

contumelious not-news network

since they can never acknowledge that Trump does anything right.

Used to be in days gone by, a million dollars well invested/spent could last a lifetime. Those days are gone.

Dispense some to Christian causes.

Buy some land and build a house on it.

Get some health issues taken care of.

Dedicate some to investments.

Buy another house in a college town. Rent it out to bring in extra income.

A restaurant would be nice too.

Retire! (Maybe)

What do you think the work of Christ is? 

To make disciples of all nations.
