A lot of post about Christians this month.

If you have any white goo coming out of your ass you might want to have that checked

I was twiddling my thumbs this morning...not sure why, but I was thinking maybe instead of pissing and moaning about a bible that cost $10.00 some here might find it more productive if they wish to help those effected by disasters to send their donations to "Humanist Crisis Response" It's the secular thing to do...and I'm sure it will be received with a smile

I'm sorry, but I had trouble finding the statement the organization made in reference to your "Subject Line". perhaps I missed it?

Chris Christie, is being pushed on us as GOP's main man for the 2016 elections. I'm with you, I hope he is cooked well done. It does appear as of now he had no direct knowledge...but the Dems are in a good position rightfully so to hang members of his administration for possible corruption.

The sentence that stuck out... "So when a young soldier in Afghanistan asked me once what kept me awake at night, I answered honestly: He did."

I found this comment quite interesting: ***Vin Weber, a former Minnesota Republican congressman and now a Washington-based GOP strategist, says he would "resist characterizing this as evidence of a war on science, which I think is BS." "I suspect this is a reflection of a trend we've seen, where the most educated people who used to be Republicans are now Democrats, and people with less educational status are now moving into the Republican Party," Weber says. Being uneducated is the new badge of honor in today's GOP, look at all the grief Obama got for even suggesting that everyone should receive a college education. I know a lot of college folks that couldn't negotiate themselves out of a paper bag. Most NYU students I've meet come across as....Stupid. Damn waste of money if you ask me. Not college...but going to NYU, seems a waste of time and money.

1. Self Reliance "The worst thing you can do for anyone you care about is anything that they can do on their own" Abraham Lincoln 2. Learning to control one's Envy "There is perhaps no phenomenon which contains so much destructive feeling as 'moral indignation,' which permits envy or hate to be acted out under the guise of virtue." Erich Fromm

Yep just another article written by a Gal far smarter than I. I truly enjoy reading her articles...hell even a guy like me might learn a thing or two. For all of Ms. Paglia's barbs about the women's movement, it seems clear that feminism—at least of the equal-opportunity variety—has triumphed in its basic goals. There is surely a lack of women in the C-Suite and Congress, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a man who would admit that he believes women are less capable. To save feminism as a political movement from irrelevance, Ms. Paglia says, the women's movement should return to its roots. That means abandoning the "nanny state" mentality that led to politically correct speech codes and college disciplinary committees that have come to replace courts. The movement can win converts, she says, but it needs to become a big tent, one "open to stay-at-home moms" and "not just the career woman." More important, Ms. Paglia says, if the women's movement wants to be taken seriously again, it should tackle serious matters, like rape in India and honor killings in the Muslim world, that are "more of an outrage than some woman going on a date on the Brown University campus." http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303997604579240022857012920

Not possible. White people are too well-liked. "Damn", that was well Played Sir

We'll I guess your question of Who? was answered, sorry for the additional information as you already knew who I was talking about prior to your "WHO" reply.

Who? Read the attached article. She is a Lesbian, Atheist and a graduate from Yale. She writes some very interesting articles from Salon.com that I have found to be enjoyable to read.

Merry..."Little Baby Jesus" Christmas to you as well. Stay safe and enjoy the family time. Cheers.

"Robertson deserved to be suspended. Actions have consequences. Running your mouth can get you in trouble. Most people learn this when their age is in single digits." Camille Paglia had this to say: “I think that this intolerance by gay activists toward the full spectrum of human beliefs is a sign of immaturity, juvenility,” Paglia said. “This is not the mark of a true intellectual life. This is why there is no cultural life now in the U.S. Why nothing is of interest coming from the major media in terms of cultural criticism. Why the graduates of the Ivy League with their A, A, A+ grades are complete cultural illiterates, etc. is because they are not being educated in any way to give respect to opposing view points.” http://dailycaller.com/2013/12/19/paglia-duck-dynasty-uproar-utterly-fascist-utterly-stalinist/?onswipe_redirect=no

Pope Francis and Phil, with the following caption: “Both preach truth on homosexual sin. One is TIME’s Person of the Year. The other JUST GOT FIRED.” http://ideas.time.com/2013/12/19/the-duck-dynasty-fiasco-says-more-about-our-bigotry-than-phils/

“Death of freedom of speech and more importantly thought is a progressive cherished goal. Censorship, perversion of language and culture, and coerced uniformity of thought are necessary for their agenda. From there, any tyranny is possible.” There I said it...or should I say someone else said it and I just repeated it.

Women in general, more so than Men seem to balance being married, a mother and a career women. I found that to be the case with my mom...as well as with my wife. I suppose the old saying, "Behind every successful man, stands a surprised mother-in-law" has an element of truth

Now I know the rest of the story...very interesting, and I find out she write extensively for Salon.com. I was reading several comments in which she provided responses to in an article, "Obama's Critical Moment Approaches" I was a bit surprised in her response and how gracious she answered those of differing views. Case in point "The purpose of this message is to express my outrage at the frequent criticism of Sarah Palin for having gone to five schools before she graduated from the University of Idaho. What many of her critics fail to understand, or smugly disdain, is the reason she attended several schools. Sarah’s parents told their four children that they could not afford to pay their way through college, and if any of them wanted to go on to college, they must figure a way to pay for it on their own. It is a towering credit to Sarah Palin’s ambition, courage and will to persevere that she acquired college credit hours when and where she had the opportunity and could pay for them and had the drive and guts to earn her B.A. Although a degree from the University of Idaho may not impress someone who attended an Ivy League school, having the title the University of Idaho on her sheepskin is certainly more elegant than, say, Southwest Wyoming State Teachers College. Those whose parents paid their way through school evidently don’t appreciate what extra effort it took Sarah to acquire her B.A. But I do, because hailing from Galena, Kansas, the only Kansas town mentioned in John Steinbeck’s “Grapes of Wrath,” I know what it’s like to grow up poor, at least poor in relative terms. It’s common for working-class youngsters who manage to go on to college to go to one school, as did I, for their first couple of years. In many cases, a kid will live at home while going to a nearby college. It irks me that smug, spoiled brats have the gall to criticize Sarah Palin for going to several colleges, because she didn’t flunk out of those schools — she was scratching and clawing to grab credit hours when she could. Although I graduated from the University of Kansas very near, if not at the very bottom, of my class, I remain proud of the degree I earned, because it enabled me to wiggle my way out of the lower working-class. I busted my fanny to make it through school, working as a busboy at a tavern and as a waiter in a sorority house. But first I went to school at a small state college, Kansas State Teachers College at Pittsburg, near my hometown, before transferring to the University of Kansas to earn my B.A. from a school with a better reputation than KSTC’s. My father was the youngest of ten children born to a farm family and probably never had a penny which he hadn’t earned by his hard labor. He chose to lease and operate a gas station in Galena, Kansas, until he’d earned enough to purchase the station from the oil company. Operating a gas station was his vocation for more than 40 years. In all those years, I knew him to take only one weekend vacation, when he and my mother drove to St. Louis to watch a Cardinals game. Dave Livingston Colorado Springs, CO Thank you very much for your personal testimony. I too have been repulsed by the elitist insults flung at Sarah Palin in the massive, coordinated media effort to destroy her. Hence I have been thoroughly enjoying the way that Palin, despite all the dirt thrown at her by liberal journalists and bloggers, keeps bouncing back as if unscathed. No sooner did the gloating harpies of the Northeastern media think they had torn her to shreds than she exploded into number one on Amazon.com with a memoir that hadn’t even been printed yet! With each one of these amusing triumphs, Palin is solidifying her status as a bona fide American cultural heroine. Yes, the snobbery about Palin’s five colleges is especially distasteful, given the Democratic party’s supposed allegiance to populism. Judging by the increasingly limited cultural and factual knowledge of graduates of elite schools whom one encounters working in the media, blue-chip sheepskins aren’t worth the parchment they’re printed on these days. Young people forced through the ruthlessly competitive college admissions rat race have the independence and creativity pinched right out of them. Proof? Where are the major young American artists, writers, critics or movie-makers of the past 20 years? The most adventurous and enterprising minds have gone into high tech. We’re in a horrendous cultural vacuum because our status-besotted education industry is geared toward producing not original thinkers but docile creatures of the system."

My mother was one of the first (2) women to be hired to work at NASA. My father would leave his job as a Salesmen in Newport News Va. and move the family to Houston, Texas so that he could support his wife in her new career. My mother worked in a Man's world, but never lost sight of her own dreams and or her first responsibility of being a Wife and a great Mom. We can give our ladies great credit for doing some of the heavy lifting of raising the kids with help from dad and pursuing a career. But, surely, modern women are strong enough to give credit where credit is due...it is a Man's World...Right? http://ideas.time.com/2013/12/16/its-a-mans-world-and-it-always-will-be/print/

It makes us feel good, and give us something to talk about.

http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2013/12/13/call-jesus-white-expect-a-fight/?hpt=hp_c2 "It seems that now, if you want to call Christ — or even Santa — white, you should expect a fierce fight." "Taking the imagery seriously, the Shawnee warrior Tecumseh asked future President William Henry Harrison, “How can we have confidence in the white people? When Jesus Christ came upon the earth you kill’d and nail’d him on a cross.” Even Martin Luther King Jr. claimed that Jesus was white, after being asked why God created Jesus as a white man. King responded that the color of Christ’s skin didn’t matter. Jesus would have been just as important “if His skin had been black.” He “is no less significant because His skin was white.” Famed evangelist Billy Graham preached in the 1950s, and then wrote emphatically in his autobiography "Just As I Am," that, “Jesus was not a white man.” The phenotype of Jesus was never an issue in the Bible. Neither Matthew, nor Mark, nor Luke, nor John mentioned Christ’s skin tone or hair color. None called him white or black or red or brown. Obsessions about race are obsessions of our age, not the biblical one. When asked what mattered most, Jesus did not say his skin tone or body shape. He instructed his followers to “love the Lord your God with all your heart” and to “do unto others as you would have done unto you.”

Awesome dude, that is the way it should be done. What's mine is yours and I'll share it Vs. What's yours is MINE and I'll TAKE IT. Merry Christmas Brother...stay safe and keep up the good work.

Your good, VERY GOOD...if I every need someone to represent me, I hope you would take my call. Cheers.

+1, I suppose he has failed....which was predicted early on.

Two words: "President Biden" Damn...didn't think that one through
