They are saying it's mostly being spread in the "homosexual community" i.e. sodomites but a look at the infection map it appears the outbreaks are occurring only in NATO nations. I'm wondering if this is a secret biological attack by Russia. Also, the death rate is around 1% the same as the rate with Covid-19.

It is with sad heart that I announce that Pastor Mike Reed, aka Ukulele Mike, has gone to be with the Lord in October of 2021. I have no details concerning his passing. I was alerted to it by another forum member, who saw an announcement online. Mike was my friend, a moderator on this forum and a faithful pastor for many years in the small California town of Herlong. Bro Mike was faithful to his calling and his Lord, persevering through hardship in the forms of a very small congregation of 6-10 people, with no financial support for many years. He also performed the duties of a forum moderator admirably and with a Christ like spirit. Mike will be missed , but I a…

The former pastor fot he First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, and son-in-law of the late Dr. Jack Hyles, the late, scandal ridden pastor of First Baptist of Hammond, has been released from prison after serving 9 of his 12 year Federal sentence for taking a young 16 year old parishoner whom he was "counseling" across state lines to Illinois and Michigan for sex. He had appealed for a "compassionate release" in 2021, telling the Federal judge that his frail and elderly parents needed him to take care of them. The judge, cited many reasons for not allowing the release, one of the main causes being that there seemed to be no remorse for his actions with said parishoner. …

“From a strange inversion of the order of nature, the cause of which it is not necessary to unfold, the most important business in civil society, is, in many parts of America, committed to the most worthless characters. The Education of youth, an employment of more consequence than making laws and preaching the gospel, because it lays the foundation on which both law and gospel rest for success; this Education is sunk to a level with the most menial services.” ~ Noah Webster, “Education of Youth,” American Magazine, March 1788 Parents wish their children to be well bred, yet place them under the care of clowns. They wish to secure their hearts from vicious principles…

This topic is to discuss the convoys and other efforts begun to draw attention to the severe infringements on our constitutional liberties and human rights. Although Covid was used as an excuse to remove these, this is not a Covid thread, and any degeneration into discussion of vaccines, treatment, or validity of Covid concerns will be deleted. Disclaimer over. Guys! I’m going to Ottawa, Lord willing, by the end of next week, to join the protest at Parliament! (If Ford hasn’t got the OPP to illegally arrest everyone by then.) Excited and sobered to be part of this moment of history.

Mr. Greg Locke (sorry, but I refuse to confer upon him the title of "Pastor") is at it again. Mr. Locke is now saying he has witches in his church that he will expose, and his freakish behavior and accusations seem to grow stranger by the week. Mr. Locke reminds me of a man back in the 70's named JIM JONES...I hope his people are looking out for invitations to move to a foreign country to start their own city and loose packets of Kool-Aid! Oh, yeah! https://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/lifestyle-buzz/pastor-greg-locke-threatens-to-expose-witches-in-his-church-in-viral-video/ar-AATSRdA?ocid=chromentpnews

The National Archives on Monday issued a rare statement confirming that records turned over from the Trump White House “included paper records that had been torn up by former President Trump.” “White House records management officials during the Trump Administration recovered and taped together some of the torn-up records,” the statement read. “These were turned over to the National Archives at the end of the Trump Administration, along with a number of torn-up records that had not been reconstructed by the White House.” The statement came after the Washington Post reported that some of the 700 pages of documents that the National Archives transmitted to the Hou…

Perhaps this should have been put in Humor. Mark Russell, the political comedian, used to say he did not have to hire writers as Congress, the president, etc. supplied him with so much material he did not have to hire writers. Here is an example of what I am sure he would have used. I have seen Gazpacho on restaurant menus but never have I seen Gestapo on a menu. Marjorie Taylor Greene Accuses Nancy Pelosi Of Using 'Gazpacho Police' Representative Marjorie Taylor Green attempted a souped-up attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday, but it created a reaction she did not see coming. It happened while the controv…

I watched the launch of the James Webb telescope this morning. What a sight! What an accomplishment! I am amazed how such a complex project can come to fruition without a hitch on liftoff and achieving orbit. I was especially impressed when Bill Nelson, the head of NASA, quoted from Psalm19.

Mr. Greg Locke, (sorry, I can't in all good conscience refer to him as "Pastor") is at it again. He wants religious and personal liberty, yet he is condoning book burning and calling for it from his pulpit. Mr. Locke is a very controversial man, and his antics have gotten him into trouble more than once. I would recommend that anyone who wants to be associated with him read all they can on his challenges, legal, religious, and otherwise, and to proceed with a huge grain of salt and caution. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/right-wing-pastor-greg-locke-organizes-massive-book-burning/ar-AATmY5e?ocid=chromentpnews

Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes faces rare charge of seditious conspiracy for Jan. 6 role

Now this is a serious charge. Sedition defined: conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch. More than 700 people have been charged by the Justice Department in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol. On that day, a violent mob of supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the building in an attempt to block the certification of the Electoral College tally for the 2020 presidential election. But in the year since the attack, none of the accused had been charged with the crime of sedition, a fact that has led a growing number of Republican lawmakers to question the seriousness of the ins…

I found this quite interesting. One would have thought that most of these articles would have been recovered around the time that the camp was liberated. It just goes to show that there is still something to find in the areas where these camps were located. https://worldisraelnews.com/pendants-with-hebrew-prayer-uncovered-at-site-of-nazi-death-camp-in-poland/?utm_source=newsletters_worldisraelnews_com&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Heartbreaking+Items+Found+at+Nazi+Death+Camp%3B+Violent+Arabs+Attack+Jews+with+Snowballs+in+Jerusalem%3B+Jewish+Mom+Flees+Iran+for+Life-saving+Treatment%3B+Jews+Ascend+Snowy+Temple+Mount&utm_campaign=20220127_m166402797_He…

Mr. Biden has ALWAYS had a problem with accepting responsibility for his failings, and his term as POTUS so far has been NO DIFFERENT. He's distrusted, stubborn, RADICAL, and wholly incompetent! https://amac.us/biden-at-year-one-stubborn-distrusted-radical-incompetent-and-mean/?campaign=daily-news-email

I do not understand people, like Neil Gorsuch, who will knowingly put other people's lives at risk when a very simply act could give them protection. Liberal, conservative, or otherwise, this is not right. He was raised Catholic but now worships with his wife and two daughters at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Boulder, Colorado, but this action is not Christian. To me this has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with what is right and on this he is wrong. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor has diabetes, elevating her risk for serious illness or death should she contract Covid-19. Sotomayor said recently that she doesn’t feel comfortable sitting next to unmas…

The first full moon of the year will make an appearance Monday and it has a special name that is based on a well-known myth. The first full moon of the year, known as a wolf moon, will be visible on Monday evening at about 6:48 p.m. EST, according to NASA. It became known as the wolf moon because wolves were traditionally believed to have howled during the winter because of hunger. NASA says the wolf moon will appear full for about three days around the same time. https://thehill.com/changing-america/enrichment/education/590076-the-wolf-moon-will-light-up-the-nights-sky-this-week

Charles McGee, a Tuskegee Airman who flew 409 fighter combat missions over three wars and later helped to bring attention to the Black pilots who had battled racism at home to fight for freedom abroad, died Sunday. He was 102. After the U.S. entry into World War II, McGee left the University of Illinois to join an experimental program for Black soldiers seeking to train as pilots after the Army Air Corps was forced to admit African Americans. In October 1942 he was sent to the Tuskegee Army Air Field in Alabama for flight training, according to his biography on the website of the National Aviation Hall of Fame. "You could say that one of the things we were fight…

A Florida bank announced Thursday that it has closed down former President Trump’s account, joining a growing list of entities that have cut ties with the former president following the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot. In his financial disclosures, Trump had stated he had two money-market accounts with Banks United, The Washington Post reports. The accounts held somewhere between $5.1 million and $25.2 million. “We no longer have any depository relationship with him," said Banks United, without giving reasons for its decision to shutter the accounts. Another Florida bank, Professional Bank, last week announced that it would be cutting ties with Trump, say…
