We need a new religion.

I am going to on a little rant here and I hope that I don’t piss people off. What I really want to do is to get people to start thinking.

We are in the middle of a pandemic. People are dying. There are many ways that we can help save people’s lives. One way is to wear a mask. Another way is to social separate. We should also avoid large gathering were the virus could easily spread. These are three pretty simple things to do. Now there is a segment of our society that says that you can’t make me wear a mask. There is a segment of our society that says I don’t have to social distance. There is also a segment of our society that says you cannot stop me from congregating. One of those groups that are saying all three of those things is the Church.

 Now I will say not all Churches don’t care about the masses but the Catholic Church went all the way to the Supreme Court so they could still assemble for their so called freedom of religion. Now that is where I feel that religion fails the masses. The man that they supposable follow was the one who said to love they neighbor as much as they love themselves. As I stated we are in the middle of a pandemic. The Church should be leading the way not making matters worse. They should be telling everyone to wear a mask so you do not get your neighbors and family sick. If you love your neighbor you should be telling everyone they should be social distancing making sure no one gets sick. The Church should be saying because we love you as Jesus has instructed us we will not congregate until it can be done without risk of people getting sick. In a nut shell they should not be waiting for the government to tell them to do the right thing. They should be leading the way by doing the right thing.

Since the right thing is not being done maybe we should start over again with a new organization that really believes in what he said. I may not be a good Christian but I do often ask myself “What would Jesus do”.

  There’s a simple way to judge a country: look at whose lives it protects, and whose lives it’s willing to forget. For years now, we’ve heard the phrase “All Lives Matter.” It sounds fair. It sounds equal. It sounds like common sense. But a country doesn’t reveal its values through slogans. It reveals them through actions, through the lives it defends, the lives it ignores, and the lives it quietly pushes out of sight. And lately, America has been doing a whole lot of looking away. When Black Americans said they were being killed during traffic stops and routine encounters, the response from many leaders wasn’t concern; it was irritation. Instead of saying, “Let’s fix the problem so fewer people die,” we heard “Blue Lives Matter,” “Stop resisting,” and “BLM is a terrorist group.” A man died in a chokehold on camera. We all saw, from the beginning to the end. It was like a modern-day lynching. Millions marched peacefully. The answer from those in power was “law and order,” and “...
  On Saturday, I was looking at Facebook and a person I was friends with, in fact, someone I went to High School with, posted something I knew was wrong. The post claimed that four lawmakers in Colorado decided jail time shouldn’t be mandatory for people who committed sexual assault of children. She claimed they were pedophile protectors. I opened up Perplexity and asked about the situation, and this is the reply I got back: You’re referring to a recent controversy in Colorado over a proposed bill that would change sentencing rules for certain sex crimes. Here are the verified facts to clarify what’s actually happening: • In early 2026, the Colorado House Judiciary Committee held a vote on a sentencing reform bill that aimed to give judges more discretion in certain felony cases. • Some lawmakers voted against an amendment that would have made mandatory prison sentences apply to all sex crimes, including child sexual assault, preferring instead to let judges determine sentences...
  Dove or hawk? Donald Trump ran for President promising to end “endless wars”, avoid new ones, and put American families first. He cast himself as an outsider who would bring peace – the only candidate who wouldn’t drag America into another conflict. The message worked because let's face it, after so many years in Iraq and Afghanistan, America was tired of war. As a country, we were all tired of War. The country wanted stability, not another generation of men and women sent into danger. But once in office, he governed very differently. He governed like a Hawk, quick to threaten, quick to escalate, and willing to use both bombs and tariffs as weapons. What was missing wasn’t just consistency. It was an honor: the sense of responsibility and restraint that should come with the power to risk other people's sons and daughters. This isn’t about ideology. It's about whether someone who promised peace, but repeatedly chooses confrontation, can still claim to be a “dove”. A core...
