An old hippie, 71, retired, widowed and hanging on for all I'm worth. I LOVE Sci-Fi, nature photography, my adopted state of Oregon, dogs, dogs, dogs and people too. I'm a progressive liberal atheist humanist and won't apologize for being any of those.✌🏻

I have a question.

If christianity or even let's say religion itself is so good for people, so good for society, makes people better humans as has been claimed for centuries then why is the world so messed up? If most people on this planet are religious, and they are, why is there so much hate,

trump just HAS to be making money of the tariffs. He's so committed to them that there's no way in hell he's not profiting off of it.

It's believed that only love can conquer hate. So maybe we should all just love more. Just a little more would help, don't you think?

I mean, what could it really hurt? It's not like we'd be doing it for nothing because being kind truly does makes us feel good inside and it's contagious.

does the same for someone else.

It's most definitely something that everyone one of us should do more often. We should love more often because love just feels good. But would we all endeavor to just love, be kind, just a little more with not much effort we could turn so many things around.

are love.

So kindness must surely be a form of love. That just makes sense. It's the one thing that costs us nothing to do and yet pays such a rich reward. Not only for us but for the person we're kind to. It's also one of those gifts that keeps on giving as one person we showed kindness to

person on the street a few dollars or when we pull over for an ambulance rushing to the hospital or when we offer our seat to someone on the bus because they look fragile or in need of a seat...

When you think of it, really think about it, tiny seemingly insignificant gestures, acts or words,

People don't think that we show love to strangers, but we do. When we smile at a stranger we're showing love, when we hold the door for someone or say please and thank you or stop to ask if we can help or pay for that person after us in fast food line or coffee shop or when we give a houseless

I love Mel Brooks so much. Just watching Robin Hood Men In Tights for the first time believe it or not. I don't know why Darryl and I never watched it. I know he would have loved it.

Personally whether targeting younger audiences or not Harry Potter, Star Trek, Star Wars and a few others are for all ages. I still watch animated films like Shrek, How To Train Your Dragon, etc. because my inner child still lives and still needs to be entertained.

Never let your inner child die.

For me I think I'm much more emotionally invested in Star Trek than Star Wars, but I do love them both.

Star Trek I've been watching and loving since 1966 when I was 12 and likely many of my liberal views were inspired by it.

I guess it all depends on what your preference is.

As for the new trek, it's doing what is supposed to do, it's evolving the same way humanity should be but doesn't seem to be doing much of or any at all.

Very true. But that doesn't mean that someone shouldn't do it, shouldn't force him to look.

He's the world's most prolific 'projector'. We've seen that whatever he's accusing others of he's done it, wants to do it, plans to do it or is trying to do it now.

We've seen far too many cross wearing, bible thumping, deity worshipping people in Congress do, vote for, the absolute WORST things to this country and her people. Again, it may not be their religion that causes them to be who they are, but it no doubt contributes.

references to him being in a seminary (studying his religion) as if it makes him a better person/candidate and references to stories (MYTHS) from the bible and applying them to what's happening today.

I don't care what his religious beliefs are. It's who he is as a human being that matters.

I'm not so much upset about the inexperience. Look at what Crockett, AOC and Frost have done. They hit the ground running. I think it's the person that matters most and the drive they have to make a difference in a positive way that drives this country forward.

My problem is his constant

You must know that when you say reality-check you're talking about your reality and must likely not universal reality. We don't know what is gonna happen. The best we can do is to try our best to make sure what happens is accountability and going in a better direction.

Every little bit helps. That's true.

So to do nothing is giving up completely. I'm not ready to lay down and give up. Are you?

DON'T listen to these pessimistic people. There's much to be hopeful for. One of which how many people, trump supporters included, that are not only waking up but they're as pissed as hell AND based on all the recent special elections and early primary voting they are voting BLUE!

NEVER GIVE UP!

That's the DOJ, not congress.

The DOJ won't do shit units trump tells them to. With congress we have a bit more hope. They're elected.
