Every year the United Methodist Church sponsors a hiking chaplain on the Appalachian Trail. This year’s chaplain is Stephen Hawley (trail name “Father Time”). Last week he baptized a fellow hiker in Fontana Lake. Church can happen anywhere!

What Type of Superhero Are You as a Writer?

Prophetic words from Ven. Pope Pius XII on technology, all the way back in 1957:

“These new possessions and new instruments which are within almost everyone's grasp, introduce a most powerful influence into men's minds, both because they can flood them with light, raise them to nobility, adorn them with beauty, and because they can disfi…

I FOUND MY CAR SPIRIT ANIMAL IN SEATTLE!!!

When I refused to be jabbed while also being evaluated for a kidney transplant, I was subjected to 7 hours worth of interviews to assess my rationality. I was well armed with data thanks to the doctors and scientists who held the line. Ultimately, the transplant team accepted me. I am writing this comment from my hospital bed having received a wonderfully working gift of life 9 days ago. There are good people wanting to serve humanity, but they have been lied to and used. When they awaken - and…

I had a heart attack in Jan 2021, the pressure in the hospital was intense but my Cardiology team was a godsend, they never once asked, took my side against the ICU management like a good doctor should. Never once has that team even mentioned the vax from the moment they went to work on me until my final appt this year. Good luck with your recovery, I am recovered as well and still vax and coof free.

Way to go, notBob!!! I had only one doc say something and they used the standard line that the unvaxxed are germ spreaders. I explained that I did not want to appear ungrateful and I respectfully made a minor retort. Every time the doc saw me I received a criticism about the position of the mask I have to wear in hospital. It is probably a wise thing that I did not tell her that I remained mask free while grocery shopping through out the pandemic. It was the only place I could go where I knew t…

The unvaxxed can only (potentially) spread the virus if they are actually infected. Rhetorical question: how did your doctor know you were infected? Or, why did they assume by default that you were infected, without examining you? And if they did make that assumption, hadn't they protected themselves appropriately? If not, shame on them; if so, why not just leave you the he** alone?

I am not now nor was I ever infected. I have taken prophylactic vitamins, zinc and quercetin throughout the scourge. I suspect the doc is traumatized and wears a mask, shield and gloves and was pleased to announce that they had been jabbed 3x and eagerly awaiting the 4th. I believe I had enough of the team on my side and I am healthy with the exception of my genetically diseased kidneys. I have proven by my rate of recovery that I was a sound candidate. Oh, by the way, I was subjected to the co…

Gene theory disproved years ago. We forget that these are only “ theories “ and regularly disproven. The ones that makes lots of cash for the industry are touted as truth and “the science” and the people suffer where they don’t think etc for themselves. The string theory might be the only one that could have varying shades of truth in it. Factoids and truth are not the same thing.

Interesting. Everything I've come across about my disease claims it is genetic in nature. In fact, 4 of 5 of my father's family had the disease and 7 of 23 grand children have it. 🤔
