Man Finds Box of Adorable Baby Bears Outside Home
WISN ^ | Feb 6, 2020

Posted on 02/06/2020 5:54:28 PM PST by nickcarraway

It was a bear-y baffling discovery in front of a North Carolina home.

Cornelius Williams returned home from the grocery store Tuesday night and heard a squeaky noise coming from a cardboard box left in his walkway, WTKR-TV reported.

It was dark outside, so Williams called authorities for help. A deputy approached the box, peered inside and to his surprise — he found two newborn bear cubs.

Bears are no stranger to Camden County, Sheriff Kevin Jones said. But, he said finding cubs in a box was “a little strange.”

Williams wasn’t sure why he was left to bear with the box of blanket-wrapped cubs, but they are out of his paws now.

The bears were taken to the North Carolina Zoo in Asheboro to be examined and cared for, news outlets reported.

I think the box guy mistook what he meant when Williams kept telling people he has the right to bear arms..

Makes me wonder what might have happened to mama bear.

Imagine the porch pirate who accidently stole that box.

The good people at Appalachian Bear Rescue will take very good care of them. They don’t stay adorable for long, at least not up close.

For some reason, I recall a Gary Larson Far Side cartoon...

People are adoring something other than Christ. I thought you should be put on alert.

I appreciate you keeping me up to date.

Let me know when they make idols of the bears, pray to the bears, light incense to the bears and rely upon the bears for their salvation.

When that happens we can talk.

Indians did that hundreds of years ago. See where they are now?

The idolization of fourfooted beasts" flows from idolatry, as does idolization of higher order of created beings, of man himself, ascribing to such attributes, glory and titles that are nowhere given to anyone but God. Thus Christ was charged with blasphemy for claiming the same, but the accusers where blind to the fact that Christ was God in nature.

That’s pretty much the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen posted on this forum.

What are you, our resident Religious Police, like the muslims have?

Would they ever be able to survive out in the wild after being handled by humans?

Ask anyone who believes in the veneration of people and icons. Why was the Holy of Holies empty in the 2nd Temple? Why does God command in the 1st commandment that all worship is to be directed towards him? Further why did God allow the Ark of the Covenant to be captured by the Philistines?
