I thought the same thing. So, I agree with Doom.

She also related that, when nearly all students are well behaved, peer pressure tends to bring the few hellions into line. I always said that we never had any bullying in Catholic School because the nuns did it for us. The other aspect of Catholic education, pre-Vat II, is that if one child did som...

The other story (unsubstantiated afaik) is that the Ayatollah exchanged a lot of money into crypto, and then deposited it in accounts that can't be traced.

I have to admit, I never heard of him. Since the amount of time I've spent reading the National Catholic Distorter is few and far between, it's not surprising.
RIP!

I had heard a story this past weekend that China was going to give the ayatollah sanctuary. Then never heard anything more. I don't know which stories are accurate, and which are inflated.

since there won't be a military action against Greenland. Trump, today, stated that there would not be. Exactly! I've been following Trump for over 40 years. He makes bold statements in order to get people's attention, and then states what he really wants and needs. He's playing chess, while everyo...

It goes on to say that Moses's snake ate the snakes of Pharaoh's magicians, so God allowed them to exhibit some power in order to demonstrate that God's power was even greater.
Their power only lasted for just so long. It ended with the plague of gnats in ch. 8.

Yeah!

If the average NY'er spends $805, and I spend $0, that means that there may be somebody out there who spends $1610.

BION, The person that I learned the most about Econ 101 from, was Rush Limbaugh. He could make an otherwise complex issue sound easy to follow. I miss him and his insights.

I had to take a stat class in college, but admittedly, the longer I'm out of school (50 Years) the more I forget.

I just found out that there was a delegation from China in Venezuela meeting with Maduro. Don't just take him out, let's do it in front of the Chinese.

I think that answers whether or not, they would think twice before doing anything.

Edmundo Gonzalez overwhelmingly won the election. Maduro ignored that fact. He was the one not following the rule of law.

As to what Russia or China might do...they may very well be shaking in their boots.

Fixed the title for you.

I went to midnight Mass once in my life, just to see what all the fuss was about. Never. Again. I like my

Merry Christmas!

So if we have a Christmas truce, then in January, we go back to deporting. Symbolic gesture, but in the end the same result.

1Tim. II, 4 applies primarily to adults, because strictly speaking only adults can “come to the knowledge of the truth.” Without at all denying God's universal salvific will, I have always thought it odd that Paul put all being saved and all coming to know the truth, in that order. I think that in ...

We reconcile it through God's mercy. If we would be merciful and take their untimely death into consideration, think how much more God would do the same and more. He can't be out done by generosity. Once PED (stomachosus thomistarum?) had posted a quote saying those who die on original sin alone ca...
