Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

QUO VADIS FIDEL? WHERE ARE YOU GOING?


The Leftist World Council of Churches and the Jews:



Get used to it my fellow Jews, the World Council of Churches hate you. These empty-church clergy with their theology that turns Jesus into a mere symbol, they hate you

Re: Jesus into a mere symbol
I think that even someone who is not a Christian would believe that Jesus did live and he was something pretty special if they thought about it for more than a few minutes. Here is a guy who is, to varying degrees, an important person in three religions. It seems unlikely that he was just made up as something that makes a good story.

Me still thinks, Palestinians already have a secure state.

It's called Jordan.

I agree. That was the original reason for Jordan. We often forget the origins of things so we also forget the whys and wherefores. In the end, we often lose more than that.
