Barr, just decided to be honest quite a bit late but still appreciated

Any --rational-- person would agree with what Barr said, Mike.

It does make me suspicious of people who says the elections are dishonest and perhaps are guilty of trying to make them so

6. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,
7. because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so,
8. and those who are in the flesh cannot please God. --

Quite true, CV, but for the matters of health that is a government responsibility. as England is becoming aware of, and Australia already recognizes. I will give credit to a couple of conservative pastors in town here - - even if they didn't have people in their congregation get the virus from church attendance? - - they still knew people who have came down with the virus and may have been members of their churches. I can't help some of the greedy churches out in California who are paying more attention to paper money floating into their collection plates, rather than the health of the congregation; and just as importantly their congregations instead of going out and spreading the Word two people they are going out spreading viruses❗👎

Yes, face masks could be handy indoors. Here this short video from the BBC that points that out.

The Robert E Lee statue that has represented Virginia in the U.S. Capitol for 111 years has been removed after a state commission decided that Lee was not a fitting symbol for the state.

‱ A statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee was removed from the US Capitol on Monday.
‱ A Virginia state commission decided that Lee should no longer represent the commonwealth in the capitol, and a provision in the recently-passed National Defense Authorization Act allowed for it to be removed.

Now of course this is completely up to the state of Virginia, has a Nebraska and I couldn't even say yea or nay.

I would say that he was a hero in the Mexican war of 1848 and if memory serves a commandant of West Point.

It should be noted that both Presidents Adams we're Unitarian.

A history from the Unitarians how they came to be from the Puritans

Quite true, Chris GP, but they left a legacy of anti-Christianity. You should find the article in the Unitarian dictionary quite informative and accurate. The Puritans most certainly didn't want to be told by bishops or popes on how to behave--the local church was the final authority. I doubt that if any man-made institution doesn't finally fall into corruption.

I mentioned this on another thread,

Our Protestant brethren have neither the pope nor the bishop – everyone makes his own choices. I told someone they could make the choice of becoming Protestant if you don’t like the Catholic Church, if this boat is too narrow”, Archbishop of Perugia Cardinal Gualtiero Bassetti told reporters in an event January 25 on the feast of St. Francis de Sales, the patron saint of journalists.

“Are you not comfortable with the current pontiff? If someone does not like this pope, say it, because he is free to choose other ways”, Bassetti, who is also the President of the Italian Episcopal Conference, told the Francis critics.

“Criticism is fine, but this destructive criticism is not”, the cardinal added, observing that there are too many Francis critics, “too many people speaking against the pope”.

The opioid epidemic in the United States has largely centered on white Americans, who account for roughly 80 percent of opioid overdose victims. But the national attention on white victims has pushed minorities to the sidelines, even as the number of opioid-related deaths among non-whites is on the rise.

SBC theologian

Dr. Paul Harder wrote:
"...fundamentalists shifted to a much more inward and individualized strategy, that of calling non-believers into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. There were at least two reasons for this. First, their recent setbacks had soured
them on political action; their successes in passing anti-evolution legislation and
Prohibition had proven to be only temporary. Second, their eschatology taught them that wickedness, crime, natural disasters, persecution of faithful Christians and political
oppression would all increase before the return of Christ. Fundamentalists directed their energy toward revival because it seemed to them that real, lasting political reform was
impossible....
