Scimus autem quoniam diligentibus Deum omnia cooperantur in bonum, iis qui secundum propositum vocati sunt sancti. And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints. We blew up in the 1960s over abuse of the draft, not…
Principle I The United States have no interest in the domestic affairs of other countries and expect other countries to reciprocate by having no interest in our domestic affairs.

Moreover, it would help were there a song, not just a chant, that would lift the hearts of common people and fright the souls of fearful rioters. I am neither composer nor lyricist, so I do not…

As is the feeling,So is the result. Thandava And Christian Culture Jack Posobiec’s’ tweet, which Driscoll quotes for his headline, is inaccurate. AG Barr’s statement says no such thing. That said, their networks should be put out there to be seen. FBI knows exactly who those networks are, with whom they have comms, and who…
As is the feeling,So is the result. Is this war with CCP/China just starting or has it been underway for some time? I would say it has been underway for some time. How else to view the push east into the South and East China Seas and the belt and road netting strategy? USA are…
As is the feeling, So is the result. A religion is a set of procedures that can be used to reconnect a personality — body, mind, intellect, spirit — with reality.
