I believe that the earth maintains its homeostasis with or without taxation to fund an unmanageable endeavor. Six or seven billion people working together would certainly produce a result. The question is how are you going to organize that company? Would the intended result survive the law of unintended consequences? Oh, and the Serenity Prayer begins with "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change." Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

It is not the same because the difference is that I have control of my driving. I have no control over the temperature of the earth. Furthermore, no one else does either. It is simply an ego illusion to believe that you do. One of the basic tenants of AA is to let go and let God. The Serenity Prayer cautions us not to think about or worry about things over which we have no control. As for my grandchildren, my biggest concern for them is the decadence of progressive liberalism and its negative effect on the American populace. But then again, I have no control. I can only pray for them and vote my conscience. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Number 2 is what I was thinking. Definition of entropy plural entropies 1 :a measure of the unavailable energy in a closed thermodynamic system that is also usually considered to be a measure of the system's disorder, that is a property of the system's state, and that varies directly with any reversible change in heat in the system and inversely with the temperature of the system; broadly :the degree of disorder or uncertainty in a system 2 a :the degradation of the matter and energy in the universe to an ultimate state of inert uniformity b :a process of degradation or running down or a trend to disorder 3 :chaos, disorganization, randomness Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

It has been my experience that Christians tend to be independent and generally do not seek counsel from their ministers or pastors. Those that do, from discussions with the aforementioned, are unsatisfied women and those who consider themselves religious. The message of the Bible is to accept Christ then learn to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. That becomes a unique individual path. Christians accept this understanding and fellowship with one another to emphasize, enhance and explore aspects of their life path. Wherever two or more are gathered together I am with you, declared Jesus. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

I don't know about other deniers but, I find it amusing because it has no effect in the long run. All is in God's timing and entropy cannot be denied. We call it, the end times or the closing of the gentile disposition. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

I've seen nothing but fear, weakness and anger from the right. If your evidence is the news media, no wonder. In my world things have calmed down. Right now some are concerned about the legalization of medical marijuana in GA. We have a few case of Agent Orange related Parkinson's Disease. Veteran outreach is still near the top of the list. The rest are focused on deer season. When a discussion regarding President Trump and his administration comes up it is along the lines of 1) just let him do his job and 2) Congress just do your job.

And if you still believe that you probably shouldn't be allowed anywhere near people with psychological issues. Oh no, those are my peeps. Remember what Hunter S.

The liberals used to emphasize that in the domestic violence program where I worked. I had to rehearse my comments with extreme caution. Definitely not a good work environment for me. I resigned after 1.5 years. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Only in the world of the "touchy/feely" liberals. Ask some of your conservative parent friends this: 'If an adult said to you that they were going to hurt / assault your child, would you ignore it and do nothing?" Get back to me on how many of them have the 'touchy/feely liberal' response of taking some sort of action about it. Hell - put a poll up in here if you want. It may not be the same action as I'd take, but I bet you $1000 there would be a response. Equally, you cannot possibly think that ignoring something like that is a good Conservative / right wing trait... Words have consequences. Those consequences usually take the form of actions. Take a look at your posts, Ron. You political point-scoring, the us vs them attitude you embody has gone so far that you're completely out of touch with reality. You have no idea what real people think or do - just these made up stereotypes of the pussy-liberal/ Dems and the patriotic red-blooded Conservatives that your opinions on how people react in a situation because of their perceived politics are nonsense. How you were ever an effective counselor if you're so quick to apply labels to people is beyond me. And for your future reference, we've played the politics game before - on just about every test I don't score as a liberal. I'm very much a moderate. On some topics I lean quite a long way left, on others quite a long way right. I agree with you being a moderate. Certainly more so than most here. Your example of someone saying they were going to assault a child certainly requires a protective adult response, not necessarily violent. I am referring to 1:1 insults. And I disagree that words lead to action. I've grown up and lived in an environment where cussing someone out, chewing them up one side and down the other along with threats of bodily harm were the end result of the initiator simply being pissed off. For me a good example is a drill instructor or NCOIC. And my father who would cuss you out in a heartbeat and threaten severe bodily attack. I never saw him in a fight, except with me. Counselors do not use labels with clients generally speaking. Our job is to assist the client in determining his own path. Labels are used however in treatment team meetings where we discuss our clients and evaluate progress. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

In response, I don't view myself as being afraid or weak. I want foreigners vetted and allowed to stay legally. Styles of clothing are for profiling. Trust is an issue granted 1:1 upon favorable interaction. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

Only in the world of the "touchy/feely" liberals. I was taught that "sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me." That goes along with being personally responsible. Nowadays most are looking for someone or something to blame. That is social weakness IMO. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Good article and I found it accurate. A quote I found interesting: He points out that liberals in the media outnumber the conservatives about 5:1. Therefore it is very common and easy to develop the groupthink that influences our news. Thanks for sharing. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

I disagree with their decision. It is too legalistic from a Christian perspective. They better have a huge community health service budget. News flash: only a few addenda in "The Bible" are "Christian." The basic documents predate anything similar to 'Christianity' by centuries, and are greatly at odds with most Christian or Muslim dogma - despite being used for credibility by both wannabe religions. Are you referring to the Sanskrit writings? I know that many of the spiritual concepts found in the Bhagavad Gita are carried forward. Bottom line for me is that the writings in the Old and New Testaments uplift my spirit and give comfort to my soul. I could never find that until I accepted Christ into my life. That is why I refer to Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

That is true. However, they must witness behavior that indicates the individual is a threat to themselves or someone else. They cannot simply assume aberrant behavior. The Baker Act is a FL law. Other states have similar laws but I do not think the statute is universal. ETA: It has been my experience that LEOs are reluctant to enforce the Baker Act because of the lengthy paper work. Things may have changed by now. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Oh, are you psychiatrist? When did you get that degree? Last time you were a counsellor. I used to do psychiatric assessments for a psych hospital and provide a provisional diagnosis. My master's qualified me for that position. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

OH!..great... Psychologists march through NY to call for Trump's removal http://thehill.com/homenews/news/355490-psychologists-march-through-ny-to-call-for-trumps-removal "Trump’s underlying fear that he is worthless and weak by how intensely he resists and retaliated against any criticism,” and "He has no empathy." As you are undoubtedly aware those are the same psychological characteristics of many mass murders. In this country such individuals cannot be treated before they commit violence unless they voluntarily seek treatment. You can't lock someone up just because they appear to be sociopathic, psychopathic or empathic lack empathy. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Although my experience is limited to the psychiatric field, I know of no medical exam that would detect overt suicidal/homicidal ideation. Psychiatric assessment relies on the individual's willingness to divulge his suicidal/homicidal ideation. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
