[I waited 45 seconds and actually posted something substantial--Ed.]
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — At least four people were shot outside of a Colorado Springs church on Sunday, but it was not immediately known whether the shootings were related to an earlier shooting about 70 miles away, authorities said.
WEll... that’s fine. Let me see.... Several other people here in Colorado who are “doctors” and are “not foreign” ALSO they are Muslims. So, I guess since I live in AMERICA I’m allowed to speculate.
So, I never said anything about foreign. I said MUSLIM. And, I was speculating.
The pastor from the church in on TV right now, and he said “This man came to this church with the intent to do harm to people. He is not known here, he has no part in this church, he is not employed here, and he doesn’t go to this church.”
The guy came here to the Springs, RANDOMLY? I HIGHLY doubt it.
I STRONGLY believe that this guy is the same one that shot people in the Denver area. I HEARD the radio descriptions (scanners) - and there’s no DOUBT it is the same guy.
Irish? haha. Catholic perhaps? Yeah, perhaps we should “speculate” in that direction then, instead of “singling” out some OTHER group of people.
I just heard that the gal that took down the perp was “in plain clothes, carrying a concealed weapon, and had a permit to carry that weapon concealed”!!!!!!!
Those who founded our state operated institutions of learning overwhelmed the field a couple of centuries after those first universities were established. Happened around the time we imported the "Ph D" from Germany. Germany was the only place in the world that had the Ph D, so intellectuals from America had to go there to get one.
What had begun with the "French" Enlightenment had morphed into the collectivism of socialism & communism. Continental Europe was a hotbed of revolution, with the "intellectual class" leading the charge. Course that was attractive to our homegrown intellectuals, cuz it made them the top dogs. In Europe, it was the intellectual elite class against the old guard elite & both believed they had the right to rule the masses.
We didn't have any real old guard elite defending hereditary power, so revolution wasn't necessary here. All that was needed was the power to shape the minds of the masses to follow the intellectual elites... Faith in Almighty God was the big stumbling block to that & keep in mind, religion in the US was a choice, not a state mandate. We were a nation spawned by true believers. It bubbles up from the bottom instead of being dictated from the top down, which makes us naturally less collectivist than most Europeans.
Anyway, our newly minted Ph D's came back & set up programs in the US so future generations of American intellectuals could earn them here. They were joined by a bunch of "forty-eighters" who also went into the area of education after they got here. They began to remake our entire education system, top to bottom.
I went to bed before you posted this to me, so I'm doing some catch up myself.
The Denver/Arvada BOLO report indicated a possible bearded individual wearing glasses. It'll be interesting to see if the deceased Colorado Springs shooter fits that description.

PTL.
You have to kiss a lot of butt at some of these liberal schools. They do NOT like conservatism in any form.
I used to say that to my kids but I used a different version: If Mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.”
You are absolutely right. This IS a spiritual battle. Our country is in the battle for its soul.
Since net postings of a lot of perps have been found by the public soon after names are released, could be they wanna do a thorough search themselves before they let the pajama people do it. What would it look like if they say he had no links to any terrorists & the general public finds evidence to the contrary.
The last group in Denver that wore black trenchcoats and hated Christians was the Trenchcoat mafia. Well, it looks like they are back. Maybe if they had prosecuted them last time this wouldn’t have happened.
It’s my understanding that we were born with a sinful nature. Is that not true?
Quix is not wacky. He’s expressive. It’s his fashion. If you don’t like it, don’t read it.

Amen.... and I might add the words of the hymn " This is My Fathers' World"....
This Is My Fathers' World,
and may we ne'er forget,
that though the wrong seems oft so strong,
He is the ruler yet! Praise God....
Yes, I learned a lot at YWAM, based out of the Manoa Valley, Oahu, Hi. This was back in the late 70's when I was legally still young. I have to wonder how/why anyone would want to murder these young missionaries. I agree it's one of the best organizations in Cristianity, or was back then. I can only think when this comes these murderers lives are focused on, that they really had a problem more with the teachings of the Bible than with random( is there such a thing?) executions.
Blessings to the familes involved, to the families of the killers and let God sort out the rest on this one as usual. Dang, the world is or has turned upside down.
Thanx for the update.
WONDERFUL SONG.
Do you have all the words? Worth posting, I think.
Thanks.
You will be happy to hear that I’ve been accepted and put on a waiting list for the transplant. I’ve contacted my donor and we will both need more blood work done to determine the antigens, etc. Please pray that it all goes well and according to God’s will. I don’t believe He would have put this dear one in our church for a short time if He hadn’t planned on this long ago. It’s scary to me though to have to have steroids and other drugs for the rest of my life. I don’t like what I hear about the side effects. But, I’m on the path... Love, maryxxx
Yeah, it wasn't random. It also wasn't Muslim. There was a list on an article related to this subject that listed out the recent church shootings in the US. None were Muslim. I see no reason this trend won't continue. Religion is a highly charged area and people get worked up over it pretty easily. This is a self-hating "Christian" who couldn't resolve the conflict of darkness and light within himself. That's my conjecture and I'll be sticking with it.
AMEN.
I agree.
It is the teaching of The Bible that strike at the heart of rebellion, lawlessness, lust, selfishness, fear mongering etc.
And Christians who even somewhat authentically live out the Bible are more than an irritating affront to folks in rebellion against God.
They crucified pure Love. We are warned by Him to be prepared that the world will hate us.
All the more so when the globalist rulers that be are deliberately winding up the hatred of God and authentic Christians toward trying to stamp all such out.
Thankfully, God will laugh in derision at their folly.
Between now and then . . . much blood.
