  1. I enjoy looking at the night sky and seeing God's creations. Advertisements posted in the night sky. Yuck! No thanks.
  2. With financial success I would advise the following: make financial plans and do your best to implement them. If you have no financial plan you will very likely spend all your money. All your money will be gone and you will not know where it all went.
  3. This is such a piece of history and a beautiful ancient structure. I am so sad it has been destroyed.
  4. I am glad one of my vehicles averages 34 to 41 miles per gallon. We will likely see $3 per gallon soon in Utah again soon sadly. It's sad for those who cannot afford the twenty percent and higher increase in gasoline costs.
  5. 8 Reasons Gas Prices Are Going Up -- 4-13-2019 -- By Doug Whiteman It's not your imagination: Gasoline prices have been rising fast, toward $3 a gallon in many parts of the country and even to an average $4 or more in parts of California. And we're still a ways from seeing the worst of it, because auto club AAA says prices may not peak until late May. At this rate, some families may be forced to dip into their emergency savings to keep their cars fueled. What's pumping up prices at the pump? Here are eight reasons you're paying more for your fill-ups. Read more here: https://moneywise.com/a/reasons-gas-prices-are-going-up
  6. Always keep your car gasoline tank more than 50% full in case of a panic run on gasoline. My brother gave me a 50 gallon drum to fill with water. I have a fifty gallon drum that is already that is about 85% filled but I need to fill my other one up. Water goes real fast I have learned. Mostly it is used for cleaning, bathing and the toilet. Get loads of paper plates so water will not be wasted on cleaning. Store up a decent stack of newspapers. If you cannot use the toilet crap on newspapers, dig a hole and bury them. I have not had success in toilet flushing using water on poop but I could dump water into a toilet that had been urinated in and it would clean it up real good.
  7. I hope you find much joy in the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ Kiara. God has a plan for you if you let Him into your life and He will help you make much more out of your life as you follow His commandments. After this young man's mission has ended if you wish to try and pursue him feel free. I might caution you that it is very likely things will not work out between you and him. If not there are other handsome Latter-Day Saint men that you could end up sealed to in the Holy temple of the LORD. Thank you for also making me laugh Kiara. You posted this in the Family History subject.
  8. I laughed at it too. I find it ironically amusing. It is bad though.
  9. Avon and Somerset Police are seeking a group of men who broke into a knife surrender box and took the bin's contents. The bin — which was bolted to the side of the building like a Sharps Disposal Container in the doctor's office — was filled with a bunch of knives that had recently been surrendered. What are the details? According to a report in the U.K.'s Metro, the theft took place March 13, and the suspects were caught on a CCTV camera. Police had been collecting the knives through the surrender box as a move to promote knife control, after a "52 percent spike in knife crime" over the last year. Just a day after local authorities installed the knife box, a group of men broke into the bin and stole all the knives. Read more at: https://www.theblaze.com/news/crooks-raid-uk-knife-surrender-box
  10. I agree with Senator Mike Lee. The Green New Deal is a horrible joke. He pointed out some of the most terrible flaws in it. The most ridiculous thing I think I have heard in this is how methane released from cows is destroying the Earth.
  11. Eastern Washington state may have no choice in the future except to do the Second Amendment Sanctuaries for their county citizens that are not marked as restricted persons. It's either that path or go the route of about ten other states like California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and others.
  12. Many Washington state counties need to do what counties in Oregon, New Mexico, Colorado and Nevada have done. A lot of the counties in these mentioned states have declared themselves Second Amendment Sanctuaries for their citizens.
  13. I hope they kill the Unaffordable Care Act. It raised my health insurance premiums and medical costs. The laws did not save me the $2,000 a year Obama promised. I doubt it saved the majority of people any money on health care costs but made health care more expensive.
  14. Good old Seattle, Washington. You have the lords of Washington state and you have the common peasants. Do these city council members think they are lords of the people of Seattle? Seeing some of the legislation that has come out of Seattle in recent years this video affirms what information I have read about that place. Power corrupts.
  15. Forgive the following of my writings if it seems aggressive. The New Zealand Prime Minister is a tyrant in my opinion. (There are many of them in this world.) She said citizens should arrange to turn in the firearms banned under the new law. Did the citizens not pay money for their property? It is rightfully theirs and others have no right to take it. If a government is willing to strip away your firearms they can take anything else they want. They have already proven it in taking away property they had no right to take. She is stealing the New Zealand citizen’s property with the lies and empty promises of more security. I know the New Zealand Prime Minister is not going to give up her body guards armed with semi automatics equipped with standard capacity twelve to thirty round magazines. After all she and all the political leaders in the world are so much more important than the common citizen.
  16. To me this is my understanding of the parable of the sower: Seed received by the wayside = unfruitful Seed received into a stony place = unfruitful Seed received among thorns = unfruitful Seed received into good ground brings forth fruit. The different fruitful people bring forth thirty, sixty and one hundred fold in fruit.
  17. I served a mission for the restored Church of Jesus Christ in the 1990s. The truths I learned while serving a mission I would not trade for $1,000,000,000. One can take the good deeds and intelligence they learned in this life with them into the next. Presently my wife and I are saving funds for retirement. I won't be able to take that with me when my spirit departs from my mortal body.
  18. Here is another update on this case: March 6th 2019 -- Once again Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips has beaten the Christian-banning law in Colorado. This time Phillips has gotten the state to drop its latest harassment campaign against his business. Phillips reached an agreement with the Centennial State to drop his lawsuit against the state in exchange for Colorado ending its most current persecution of his religious principles. “The Colorado Civil Rights Commission will dismiss administrative action against Phillips, and Phillips will withdraw his federal court case against the case,” according to Fox 31. “After careful consideration of the facts, both sides agreed it was not in anyone’s best interest to move forward with these cases,” Colorado Democrat Attorney General Phil Weiser said.

  19. The United States Army is also currently in the process of switching out M-4 and M-16 long guns to a new 6.8 millimeter rifle round. It is not going to be the 6.8 x 43 Special Purpose Cartridge round. It will have higher muzzle velocity and some sources state it will be effective to over 550 meters. I hope they make the change. I never liked the 5.56 x 45 cartridge. When the civilian market started making the .300 AAC Blackout round popular for the AR-15 I was very happy.

  20. That memorial has been there almost one hundred years in the state of Maryland. A few people just cannot live and let live anymore it seems.
  21. A 40-foot concrete and granite cross memorializing fallen World War I soldiers is the subject of a case before the United States Supreme Court, in a fight over whether such a symbol should be allowed to stand on public land. What's the background? The Peace Cross in Bladensburg, Maryland, was erected in 1925 — completed by The American Legion with private donations — to honor 49 local men who died in the war just a few years before. It was the brainchild of a group of Gold Star mothers in remembrance of their fallen sons. The words "courage," "devotion, " endurance," and "valor" are inscribed on the sides of the cross, and the names of the 49 men are at its base. According to the Washington Post, all of the soldiers memorialized by the Peace Cross were Christian. The monument is currently owned and maintained by the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission with taxpayer dollars. In 2014, the American Humanist Association filed a complaint against the commission, arguing that the Peace Cross clearly violates the separation between church and state, and should either be "removed, reshaped, or its ownership reassigned."

  22. Hillary is a disgustingly corrupt person. I doubt she will go anywhere as the Democrat party has moved on.
  23. Matthew 5:21 Inspired Version: "Whosoever, therefore, shall break one of these least commandments and shall teach men so to do, he shall in no wise be saved in the kingdom of heaven . . ."
  24. Celebrating debauchery is what this is in my opinion. There is nothing wrong with saving yourself for your husband or wife until marriage. It is chastity and pleasing in God's eyes.
  25. Controversial pastor Nadia Bolz-Weber — described several years ago by the Washington Post as the "tatted-up, foul-mouthed" leader of "a new, muscular form of liberal Christianity" — has now targeted what's known as the evangelical Christian "purity" culture. The founding pastor of Denver's progressive House for All Sinners and Saints — part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America — apparently has such contempt for sexual purity that she had a whole bunch of purity rings melted down and turned into a vagina sculpture. She then presented the finished product to iconic left-wing feminist Gloria Steinem with a great big hug at a recent conference. Bolz-Weber hatched her plan last year as a way to fight back against the "purity" movement in which young girls — mostly in the 1990s and 2000s — were given rings as symbols of their promise to abstain from sexual activity until marriage.
