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• A Virginia state commission decided that Lee should no longer represent the commonwealth in the capitol, and a provision in the recently-passed National Defense Authorization Act allowed for it to be removed.
• Military bases named after Confederate leaders can also be renamed under the provision.
• A statue of civil rights leader Barbara Johns, who at 16 years old led a student strike for equal education at a Virginia high school, is set to replace Lee.

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.

This writer pointed out, these people have their work cut out for them. Interesting how he covered the controversy over the verse of, Isaiah 7:14, of the RSV.

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.

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

Speaking to reporters, Trump said of the ruling: "They've ruled and we live with the decision of the Supreme Court." He called the opinion "very powerful."

2. Clarity of Moral Obligations -- In the United States there are no approved alternatives to the vaccines manufactured using these cell lines. To reject these vaccines without satisfactory alternatives would be to expose our families and society to unacceptable disease risks.

I was up but this weird hour in the morning, and I already had a set opinion of this Supreme Court Justice who was appointed by Trump. He was Trump's first appointment to the Supreme Court in fact.

I'm still not very happy with his usual decisions when it involves business, but the show certainly gave me new respect for him ❗👍
