Do we now have to edit the Band's "Up on Cripple Creek" to "way down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of ---- America??"

Unless our culture changes, resulting in better voters, we will have one Trump after another.

As one of his very last acts Pres Biden AT LAST commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier of the American Indian movement. I wept. This is such just mercy.

Kings and queens are on the authorized lists of saints. Surely Jimmy Carter will now join that company.

Remembering and honoring a great and influential artist on what would have been his 90th birthday. Hail Elvis Presley

We have become a heartless nation. We have no mercy for refugees or persons questionably condemned to death.

You reap what you sow. So much foolishness in this land....

I have lost one of the finest colleagues of my career, Jerry Nieft. Scientist, spiritual wise man, pioneering leader in theological education, organ builder, etc. He was very good company always. See you on the other side my friend.

I am sure you did not mean it is all past tense. Some expressions of religion are better than ever at misinformation, etc.

@natemakesmemes.bsky.social the A's and Raiders are traitors and deserve zero respect or support. I enjoy watching them get beat!

I would say all authority. Religion not unique

I very much agree with your present point but not the comparison to history. The dissemination was never so widespread and there were many counter narratives.
