  1. That should take care of it. I would check with the ward finance clerk after the first month and make sure the payment was received correctly.
  2. I don't think lone wolf attacks are related directly to the activities of secret combinations.
  3. I think there is a reference to predators and prey. When those whose nature is to hunt/kill has changed, those whose nature is the opposite will feel safe and both will lay together. One choosing not to hunt/kill and the other not fearing it will be hunted/killed. I view it as an example of peace.
  4. The end to the war between the Islamic world and Israel occurs when the Savior appears on the Mount of Olives during the Battle of Armageddon.

"To the shores of Tripoli"? Yeah, ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต Tripoli. Our ships were stopped, crews hauled off into slavery.

Jefferson and Adams went to the Ottoman ambassador in London and asked him straight: โ€œWhy do you do this to us? Weโ€™ve never fought Muslims. We werenโ€™t in the Crusades. We werenโ€™t in Spainโ€™s wars. Why enslave our people? Why attack our ships?โ€ The ambassador, Mr. Abdul Rahman, didnโ€™t mince words.

  6. Iran is the biggest State supporter of terrorism Iran is theologically opposed to the existence of Israel (the Little Satan) Iran views the USA as the Great Satan The religious leaders of Iran will never not be at war with the two Satans
  7. This is a legitimate concern.
  8. Actually you are not. You are not looking at what my question is, you are answering something else. Let's try again. My question is not what you keep answering.
  9. You did not answer my question.
  10. So without, "thus sayeth the Lord" statements, you don't believe in prophetic statements?
  11. I'll decry his actions no matter which political bend he has.
  12. Google search, first story to pop up. https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/multiple-los-angeles-businesses-ransacked-during-anti-ice-riots I don't think you tried very hard
  13. @zil2 they are the Stick of Joseph youtube/podcasters, LDS and in the USMC.
  14. I was just issued a gas mask due to local planned protests tomorrow and Saturday.
  15. LA yesterday and today. Handing out gear to fight the police/National Guard.
  16. Not really, I summarized the conversation. He's going to verify the legality. He thinks no, I think yes. Laughable and you know it. The left has created a world that will never allow these actions to be anything BUT a public spectacle. The left does not want deportations and at best ignores the violence accompanying the "protests." I provided support for ICE about two months ago and it was all over the Facebook page in the town I work before I had cleared the scene (I was there about 20 minutes.)
  17. I've not had that experience with my left wing friends. There are definitely more now, but I still think the majority have not leaned that way.
  18. If you are incapable of seeing the difference between these two pictures you should either a. Educate yourself or b. Admit you are nothing less than partisan
  19. Strike through because I disagree. I asked my co worker who is a Colonel in the National Guard. He was not sure if it was legal but was going to get back to me. If it is not legal, unlike the left, I will scream at my own side for being wrong.
  20. My latest collectible is a 1939 German Mauser.
  21. So did my parents. I threw all that stuff away not knowing there was a collectible market.
