Fruit Discrimination

We need to squash this right away. Our language is to peppered with this, so lettuce become kinder to each other, turnip around, otherwise we might beet each other when it would be butter to live in peas.  I love it when my spouse says to me: “Orange you glad you’re the apple of my eye?”

Knowing that a tomato is a fruit is intelligence; knowing not to put it into a fruit salad is wisdom.

Faith of Reason

It is idle to talk always of the alternative of reason or faith.

Reason is itself a matter of faith.  It is an act of faith to assert that out thoughts have any relation to reality at all.  If you are merely a skeptic, you must sooner or later ask yourself the question, “Why should anything go right; even observation and deduction?”  Why should not good logic be as misleading as bad logic?  – G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

Reason and faith may, at times, produce conflict between the two but ultimately the work hand in hand.  Shallow reasoning may fail to resolve the conflict but that is not the fault of reason or faith.

Reason without faith fails miserably and faith in faith without reason not only crumbles at the most inconvenient of timing but often hurts others in the process.  The God who gave us the ability to exercise both calls upon each one of us, individually and then corporately, to humble ourselves and not only cease to do that which He calls evil but learn to do well.

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Holy Bible Isaiah 1:18

Losing One’s Mind

They tell you that you’ll lose your mind when you get older.  What they don’t tell you is that you won’t miss it very much.

I remember someone who was having a few memory issues and we were a bit concerned about her.  Then one day she told us that as she was getting older she, herself, had noticed that she was having a bit of difficulty remembering things from time to time but all that was in the past because she was now no longer having any problem with forgetting anything.

We, her friends and family, were all looking askance at each other as she paused.  Then she said, “At least, that is, I no longer remember forgetting things.”  Then she laughed wholeheartedly, thanking us for being concerned about her and for sticking by her side.

Democrats election fraud must be ended

It is popularly believed that election fraud is more than sporadic, and Democrats’ opposition to voter ID lends substantial support to that notion. We have four years to check it out and straighten it out. Non-citizens voting, serial voters, dead voters and other irregularities rob citizens of their vote. We must have positive voter ID and prosecute violators to the max. Sanctity of the electoral process is the very foundation of our republic.
All federal judges should face a recall vote every two years by those over whom they have jurisdiction. It would take a constitutional amendment, which admittedly isn’t easy–but it is now or never. Rogue judges have imposed their warped beliefs upon our nation for far too long.
A comprehensive review of welfare programs is in order. With dozens of overlapping programs covering everything from cash income, to medical care, to housing, to education, to telephones, to everything else imaginable, welfare has become a way of life for millions of people who now live more comfortably than many working people.
We need procedures to circumvent a criminal Justice Department running interference for a treacherous Executive Branch. Without preventive measures, the atrocities we have seen in the Obamanation are just a sample of what is to come the next time Democrats gain control of the Executive Branch.
Hillary Clinton’s arrogant lawlessness has infuriated millions of people who supported Mr. Trump with the hope of bringing her to justice. If he is perceived as blocking her prosecution, it will severely diminish his prospects for re-election.
Tens of millions of American citizens are enraged that immigration laws are not enforced, that illegal aliens are allowed to remain in our country, that the federal government shields illegal aliens from deportation, and that the federal government brings suit against states that try to do what the federal government is legally required to do. We do not really need a wall, nor do we need deportation at taxpayer expense. Impose stiff fines on those who employ illegals, cut out welfare and medical care for illegals, require those who are caught to do supervised work until they earn enough to pay for their deportation, and the highways will be clogged with self-deportation. Also, the time is right for a constitutional amendment ending the “anchor baby” scam. A majority of voters oppose illegal immigration, but if Democrats are allowed to continue stacking the electoral deck, that majority will soon be gone and illegal immigration will become an entrenched way of life in our once-great nation.
Democrats are singing “reach across the aisle” as they always do when they are in the minority. When they are once again in the majority they will continue to arrogantly run roughshod over those who oppose their autocratic socialist agenda. We have one last chance to right the ship of state and save our republic from tyranny. Please don’t squander it by “reaching across the aisle” to those who have no honor. Just last week George Soros convened his diabolical cohorts to develop plans for undermining Mr. Trump. We must not let their treachery succeed.
