“THIS TIME THE WORLD”
January 6, 2021 may seem like a long time ago, but it is very much with us today–only the danger is now far worse. It was America back then, is it now…this time the world?
It’s the big lie that never ends.
It’s the bloated arrogance that knows no bounds.
It’s the greed and grift — sanctioned in institutionalized stealing — by the rich and most powerful at the endless expense of the working class, so pervasive and jaw-dropping that they don’t bother trying to hide their theft and corruption anymore.
It’s the disdainful disregard of our own history littered with costly failures and painful tragedies so many times before, here and abroad, which might teach us a valuable lesson if we’d only try and learn — yet we never, never, never, never do.
It’s the selective enforcement of law and order, wrapped in the flag and bull-horned by verses in the Bible, at the cost of truth, science, morality, common decency, and the desecration of human freedom.
It’s placing public trust in the most untrustworthy of all of our citizens, despite all their proven misdeeds and crimes that we no longer find shocking, but now have come to expect, and many willingly accept.
Yes. All of it.

QUESTION FOR SUNDAY SCHOOLERS:
Here’s a thought and a question on this glorious Sunday morning.
Since your “holy book” clearly states Eve was produced solely out of a body part from Adam, then doesn’t that make Eve the world’s first transgender ???
Body part was male, and then voila! Poof! Suddenly, HE is a SHE !!!
Right on, Eve! You go, girl !!!!
Discuss.

Note: I have ZERO interest in the discussion of fairy tales and anything in the Bible is of no interest or use to me (nor humanity), except for the extraordinary harms it’s done and glaring hypocrisies contained therein. My only point here is that by MAGA making an enormous issue out of something that doesn’t really affect 90 percent of the population, their own belief systems become open to scrutiny. And there’s little that’s more a “spike the ball” moment than pointing out the basis of their entire existence –for those who believe in the ridiculous fables of Adam and Eve– are constructed purely on an act of TRANSGENDER surgery, and some could say body and gender mutilation.

“THE ANXIOUS GENERATION”
SHOULD KIDS BE BANNED FROM SOCIAL MEDIA?
Note: Despite this article title, this isn’t so much a book review as an extension of the conversation prompted by Jon Haidt’s new book on the impacts of social media on young people.
