“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

Ephesians 1:7 (King James Version)
In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

For the past month I have been flying the Israeli flag in support of my favorite ally. Surprisingly nobody has given me a bit of flack and only compliments of flying such a wonderful symbol in a world of hate. A great big Shalom to the neighborhood from God’s chosen people in the belly of the beast.

My liberal Jewish friend said she was afraid to fly it and was a bit nervous at first although the neighborhood is fairly conservative with no real crazy libs. This is a statement for the country and people who has been persecuted throughout history and especially in the past hundred years. The same people who brought the world the Holocaust is back and showing their colors, wanting to kill the people they hate.

The National Socialist Party in Germany were a bunch of communists who pretended not to be communist but were. Socialism and communism are just different sides of the same coin and in Germany’s case were just different dictators worshiping different entities. Stalin was an atheist and Hitler was an evolutionist mixed with a pagan worship of the ancient Aryan race which was called the 2nd Reich.

His belief in science was heavily involved with evolution where his scientists invented the evolutionary tree. This tree had the monkeys on the bottom which evolved into man which they placed blacks, gypsies, Jews, mentally handicapped on the bottom branches and then up to the Germans and Aryans.

This is where he blended science and paganism as well as New Age mysticism where he believed he could breed German SS officers with the fittest German women to make a godlike race. He even told these officers to have sex with their wives on old German graves to bring the ancient spirits alive and make a 3rd Reich of gods similar to Greek gods and goddesses.

To accomplish this, he needed to weed society of the lesser species to purify the race which meant he had to eliminate the Jews from the world. He brought in the Grand Mufti from the Mooselimb Brotherhood to help with the final solution as well as helping the Arabs kill all the Jews in North Africa which was an irritant for the Arabs.

The same basic cult has never really died. Christianity considers itself a branch from the same tree of the Jewish religion. Christians believe they are sons of the Jews and believe in their Messiah and will become Christians at the second coming of Christ during the rapture so in the faith are brothers and sisters through Christ. Christians have no reason to hate Jews, but atheists and communists do, they hate God and his people which is really what Hitler hated.

Satan and his followers have hated Jews from the beginning of time. He knows they are God’s chosen people and Jerusalem is his city. They have been targeted for genocide from the beginning of man and this is the latest version of a bunch of insane socialists wanting to kill them once again. Stop the Genocide, Massacre Israel is their theme. The same one which has been pushed over and over for the Jewish brothers and sisters.

God has a way of revealing the truth again and again. All of the foolish cliches to hide their truths are being exposed one after another. Jews have been fooled for a hundred years that Christians are anti-Semite when the opposite is true. Just like Trump was the greatest friend of Israel and Barak was one of the worst until President Magoo. God always chooses the last man men would choose and who would have chosen Paul, David, Moses, Joseph, Mary, or Trump.

Trump is coming to protect Israel from the very people Jews in America thought were their friends. God is in control, and he is exposing everything to everyone including his chosen people.

Pray for Israel,
Shalom

The Day It Was Born; The Night It Died

It was 1977. I was 7.5 months pregnant. It was the month of March. The new Francis Scott Key Bridge was scheduled to open. I was excited. Myself and my two male riders were happy to use the new bridge and FINALLY be done with that awful Harbor Tunnel we had drive for the prior eight years.

I insert here that obviously I was familiar with traveling under or over some kind of water, and also, for quite a few years lived ON, the Chesapeake Bay. We all are in Merryland and we get used to it.

But the entry to the new bridge was not yet open that day so we had to drive down, get this, Patapsco Avenue, to get to the new FSK bridge. There I am, big belly with the only time I carried a child. I was driving that day, my turn, and damn was it all so new to me that a dog ran in front of my car and I hit it.

I got so upset, and the cops somehow came, I didn't know how to navigate this avenue and sobbed that the dog might be dead. My two riders told me to get in the back, they explained to the cops that they would drive...yada, yada. Damn, no way could I drive over this brand new bridge after almost killing a dog but one of my riders took over. The dog was fine, btw.

So that baby was born and she is now 46 years old. The night this bridge fell down, which after hitting the dog I drove over daily for seven years, that "baby" was sleeping in the bedroom down the hall in the house we now share as adults.

I was drowsy as I awoke, as I do , around 5 am. Not hardly bushy and bright-eyed, I watched Fox and Friends in early morn as I do. Eyes blinked sleepily as I watched images of a bridge somewhere totally collapsing until I heard someone on Fox say the Francis Scott Key Bridge had collapsed.

At which point I screamed at the horror and surprise of it.

I called my daughter, who evidently likes to sleep later than 5 in the am. It took a while, but she got up and tuned into Fox. Then she phone HER daughter, my granddaughter obviously, who was already up as was most of Baltimore by this time.

So okay, I did not give birth on the Francis Scott Key Bridge but once I had a VW Rabbit with a hood that flew up in the air as I crossed the FSK bridge. I drove it halfway by looking through the vent holes.

I did not fall in love on the bridge or meet my soul mate. And yet, like so many of us around these parts, we all knew that on some level we were looking at a bit of history.

But there is also, now, a future that we can give a peek to and consider how we should now do this different.

Bearing in mind that I am not scientist or builder. I am, like most Americans, filled with common sense so allow me to share it those with none. Also known as politicians.

Take a look at the picture provided. Notice that the ship that collided with the bridge, is bigger than the tallest building in Baltimore. This, of course, icould we lay them side by side and even if it were possible.

I'd been hearing right along that when the bridge was built the ships were less than half the size than they are now. I ponder that, darn, suppose a ship was towing the Empire State Building under the bridge, suppose it gets to the point where logic goes out the window.

No protection around the bridge's legs and braces was built because it was never considered about how big these things could get over the years. The population grows, more trade is conducted world-wide. Such as the FSK bridge just weren't built for this hustle and bustle of a future.

No, I don't believe this was planned intentionally, a terrorist attack. But like I say, I am no expert.

I watch the tape endlessly as the FSK bridge collapses like a toy and I remember how scared I was driving in the wind with my view only there through the motor vents on the hood. That bridge seemed so DAMN BIG to me.

So it's back to the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel for a while because I have family in Merryland, some business at times.

I leave with this prediction....this bridge will be up and fixed within TWO YEARS. Fixed and working and better.

Because that same technology that may have effectively caused its demise, this same technology will allow it to be build amazingly fast, better and safer.

TIME FOR A SMILE

Thanks for the thread AB.

To everyone: Do not use those flimsy glasses to watch the eclipses unfold. When I was a kid everyione was taught to make a cardboard box viewing port to project sun’s image like a camera on the interior of the box. Now all of a sudden our retinas (retini?) have grown immune to the sun.

Hey Rodguy: What is the story on these Keys fish swimming in circles? https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/spinning-fish-sawfish-florida-toxins-diseases-algae?cmpid=org=ngp::mc=social::src=facebook::cmp=editorial::add=fbp20240407animals-spinningfishgatedhedcard&linkId=387766992

Soccer or Meet The Depressed...

Soccer....better than seeing Anti-American liars on TV...

Who is playing, I wonder...

Have a relative is married to a guys who quoted on Facebook. Socialism isn’t communism it just people caring for people.

Your reference reminded me of his idiocy……

It looks like there are a million soccer games on today!

NBC MTP

Interesting, isn’t it, that a foreign sports league match pre-empts the ‘longest running show in television history’. Must not be that big of a deal.

Has futbol in America grown to such a level ? Premier League fans know more than me, but it appears today’s matches are not quite of Super Bowl, or World Series status.....playoff quality, I’m guessing. And, I’m one who marvels at the skills evident in World Cup matches.

On the other hand....this is Meet the Press they’re pre-empting. No love lost.

So true on cat JPEG.

So true on the list the depth of Trump hate has no limits

While the outright proff. of Biden’s incompetence is fully on display both cognitively and in the results of his policies

I meant to copy you on my post #7 as it pertaining to Fla Keys fish acting oddly.

I often ponder the effects of all the flushing of chemicals we use as medicine, hormones, etc. that eventually end up in the vast seas and waterways.

If Trump is declared the winner in the 2024 election, the Republicans should propose moving Inauguration Day to January 6. effective in 2029. Then the choice would be 1) a shorter Trump 2nd term, or 2) 14 more days of Trump.

The result would be Liberal Exploding Heads, which would be a good name for a rock band.

Other ways to make liberal heads explode; now that the South Carolina girls basketball coach has come out in favor of crossdressers playing girl basketball, all of the crossdressers being white guys, Or Asians.

Or, maybe the actual election results in 2024 indicate that the illegals voted for Trump instead of Biden. That by itself could make the dems tighten up faster than Archie Bell and the Drells.

“...now that the South Carolina girls basketball coach has come out in favor of crossdressers playing girl basketball, “

What??? Wait till I tell my hub.

South Carolina girls basketball coach has come out in favor of crossdressers playing girl basketball,

Surprised she said that so directly. But as that great philosopher Forrest Gumo stated. Stupid is as stupid does

Forecast for Monday is uncertain.
But, for reals, Climate Change will finish off the world in seven years (AOC prediction)

A dude suggested a piece of paper, a pinhole in the top third, then bend the paper so that light passes through pinhole in top third and onto paper in bottom third

If you deny this individual a tryout, you are a bigot

Is he the Italian version of Forrest Gump? :)
