Thanks for this information.
I will make good use of it.
Brilliant list. Thank you. I shall share this with my students.
No. My wife and I went out and scouted it, but bailed on the idea. The good thing is, the fantasy was such strong motivation, I saved a huge pile of money and ended up buying a house here in NJ. We're very happy and I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for asking. Amazing you remember.
What do you think of this mess?
Which mess?
However, the founders carefully avoided establishing a connection between religion and state.
Religion is manmade; God is not.
The Bush then Obama mess.
We moved from Maine to California for a big job, then the Mess occurred and we are in Kansas City Metropolitan Area, very happy. Hope to stay for as long as possible.
I crossed Colorado west to east this winter. Very pretty state.
God put in man the desire to know and love Him. This is why man is naturally religious. Does it make religion as a whole man-made?
What the Founders avoided is a state religion. Connection between state and religion is obvious from the above. Very clearly, it existed. In fact, it exists whether someone had put it in a constitution or not.
Interesting times. This is one of the worst economies we've had, and as far as I'm concerned, it's not that bad. The idea that this is about as bad as it's ever gotten leaves me quite relaxed. I'm doing fine and not even trying that hard.
I would say my own attitude is one of detached amusement. I think that's proper, since most of what occurs nationally is outside my control. Why worry about it?
I've come to suspect there are invisible actors pulling the strings. Logic tells me so. If some uneducated goombas can organize into crime syndicates and control so much, what can the richest men in the world accomplish? I'm just along for the ride.
The financial meltdown seemed to magically coincide with the need to push Obama over the top, didn’t it?
Happy Independence Day.
God bless.
