Man is NOT ALIVE until he/she takes their FIRST BREATH. It's in the Bible. It must be true. Or is this one of the vast, brobdingnagian, immense quotes from the Bible they simply choose to ignore, since it doesn't fit their purpose.  (Right-winger) "I know what I believe, and I believe in the Bible as written by God." (Interviewer) "All of it?" (RW) "Yes. It's the Gospel."  (Int) " What about working on the Sabbath?" (RW) "Well...uh,.. that's hard. We have to work." (Int) "But the Bible says your neighbor is allowed to kill you." (RW) "They wouldn't do that."  (Int) "Why? It's in the Bible?" (RW) "Oh, you liberals always say these things. Ha ha ha." (Int) "So, if it's in the Bible, it's not always true." (RW) "Well, yes. I mean, no, I mean, God gave us free will." (Int) "Oh, so you can pick and choose which parts yo

Donald Trump recently told a story linking vaccination to autism, There’s NO  evidence that recommended vaccines cause autism. Rand Paul suggested  that it would be safer to spread out recommended vaccines, but there’s zero  evidence of that. Several candidates made false or misleading statements  about vaccines. Donald Trump told a brief story linking vaccination to  autism, but there is no evidence that recommended vaccines cause autism. Trump: Just the other day, 2 years old, 2 and a half years old, a child, a beautiful child went to have the vaccine, and came back, and a week later got a tremendous fever, got very, very sick, now is autistic. The fact is, the link between childhood vaccinations and autism has no scientific basis Paul, a physician, again erred on vaccine science during the debate, saying that vaccines should be spread out more or that parents should have a choice to do so, suggesting it would be safer. (NO MEDICAL or SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE) Jeb B

‘ Remember what Jesus taught    The very people who should read His words and concepts, will laugh and ignore them. Just what has happened to our Judeo-Christian nation? ‘ I’m afraid, most so-called Jews or religiousChristians, especially those who call themselves “religious,” have become the very hypocrites that the Old Testament and Jesus spoke of.  It is the Old Testament, where we learned not to take advantage of the poor, the widows, the ill, the orphans. The OT is FULL of passages which refer to the same teachings which Jesus later proffered. Remember , He was Jewish. To those hypocrites who believe they are religious, who disdain charity and compassion so much, try another religion more suited to your tastes, like Satanism. The individual Satanist believes, nothing is done unless it benefits the individual Satanist. Sound familiar? For example, Christ taught us to feed the poor, be good stewards of our earth, and love one another, as do other leaders of

The Chinese are in Syria. (they are not in Syria0 My professor told the class test results were destroyed in a fire. He asked us to volunteer to retake the test. I was the only student who agreed. It was false, there was no fire, but this was, rather, an exercise in honesty. The school had a picture of me. (No test. No volunteering. No Picture ever appeared. In fact, there was no such course on the school’s curriculum) He received an offer, personally, from Gen. Westmoreland to receive a scholarship to West Point. (There are no scholarships, admission is by acceptance and fully paid. Westmoreland wasn’t at the event as he stated. He never received the offer. Only a member of the Senate or House can recommend someone for admission. BTW, West Point actually pays the individual to attend) He was a violent kid. (no record from anyone.) He stabbed someone but the belt saved him. (No record, plus, if you try stabbing the belt, it will move and rotate) Minimum wage increases mean d

Some people have shown more support for the Syrians immigrants than the French violence. This is my reply…. ........ many, many people, me included, laid "wreaths" of support to the French on social media over the past few weeks. On Facebook, many changed their FB photos to replicate the French Flag in support of their troubles. But, we are a nation, born of immigrants. The little respect we still have in the world is due to our support of the downtrodden.  Donald Trump falsely claims Obama wants to bring in "hundreds of thousands of Syrians.” FALSE. A recent Letter in the Star even repeated this lie. Obama asked for 10,000 beginning next year. Carefully vetted. Actually, it will take two to three years before they are able to enter the U.S. Remember what Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty signify?  The enemy always wants the opposing country to change their ethics and beliefs. It’d be a victory for ISIS if we did that. We must show the world that we are

What is it that drives seemingly normal people into a fifth dimension of an alternate universe? Why do they believe the most outrageous lies and forego the facts and the truth? These are the same people who believe in the miracles of a God they cannot see, touch or hear, but deny scientific evidence that's placed and shown in front of their eyes. They cannot comprehend that, perhaps, GOD ACTUALLY GAVE US SCIENCE SO WE MAY ADVANCE OURSELVES. Those who deny science are going against the very God they pretend to worship and pray to for help in advancing ourselves.  There must be something in the water. 

Rules involving citizenship for a child born to an American citizen and a non-citizen are very clear.  A child born abroad to a US citizen(s) who lived in (or came to) the United States for the required period of time of five years prior to the child's birth, is generally considered a U.S. citizen at birth. If they do not return to the US. within that period of time, their child is NOT considered a U. S. Citizen.  Raphael Cruz’s mother did not return within the period of time she left and Raphael was born. It is easy to find and clearly stated.   In his rhetoric, Raphael constantly states his father always loved the US and came here because he loved the country. He did not come to the US. He went to Canada, where he met his wife. When she wanted to come “home,” they did, with little Raphael in tow.  Remember Obama’s attacks on his middle name? I'd like to know why isn’t Cruz using his first name? What is he embarrassed about? Who is he trying to fool? 

HOW CAN STATES EFFECTIVELY CONTROL GUNS WITHOUT BREAKING LAWS. States should require gun owners to have liability insurance for the protection of those who accidentally get killed or wounded or maimed by the gun owners' weapons. You must have a registered gun to get insurance and without that insurance, prior to delivery of the weapon, no weapon will be issued. Same as a car.
