“Can we just give Alaska back to the Russians?”

How about we give Detroit back to Canada, and California to Mexico?

I wonder if the Satanist, like the Muslims, believe that any building that they ‘pray’ in, becomes their conquered territory?

How about we just get rid of this temple member and keep a great state instead.

Nah, they would keep on turning the ball over on downs at mid-field and would run goal line plays at the five yard line.

With Texas pumping more than enough energy to cover the loss, we wouldn’t miss Alaska. Weirdos.

Because of this?

No way!

Just because there are some bad actors who are Satanists you don’t throw good people away.

Or do you want to give the West coats to Mexico neglecting those still fighting against progressives for the home they’ve known? Or all of upstate New York to the Canadians along with the miserable progressive damn Yankees of NYC?

Ok ok, I guess I exaggerated a bit.

Actually I was thinking at least we could get rid of Murkowski? ;)

Reminds me of the situation at Bremerton High in Washington State a couple of years ago, when a Christian football coach was suspended (and eventually fired, I think) for leading some of his players in a voluntary prayer after games.

As the controversy played out, some hostile teachers invited in a group of "Satanists" to deliver a counter-message. The local press thought that was oh-so-funny.

Idiots all around. Those that stayed, those that approved of it happening, those who support this lost woman. Very big mistake. Very big.

Michigan won the Toledo wars so Ohio had to keep Toledo.

Actually, it does a good job of highlighting that those who want to abolish public prayer to God, are only slightly better than this.

Prayer at the start of these meetings is to ask for guidance beyond ourselves in the role of government.

I guarantee you that Hillary Clinton does not think that she needs such guidance. None of those who need it the most think so, either.
