Those of us old enough to remember LBJ can remember his strong personality and how the Vietnam war ruined his political career. I have seen a lot of people comparing LBJ and Trump.

I’m glad the woman received the help she needed! It reminded me of this case, where our brothers helped this man escape slave labor in Japan (the video is in Portuguese, but you can turn on translated subtitles).

Yeah, maybe. Public executions are supposed to deter people from crime and solidify the governments power and authority. However history shows it isn't very effective.

Gastroenterologist is the doctor who treats someone who has celiac.

Do we have updated version of these? I can't install them

In Locminé, Jehovah’s Witnesses alerted the police, bringing an end to the ordeal of a woman who had been subjected to physical assaults, insults, and other forms of psychological abuse. He was sentenced to 18 months in prison without suspension by the Lorient court on Monday, September 28. It was by knocking on the door of a house in Locminé on September 24 that two Jehovah’s Witnesses brought an end to the ordeal of a 46-year-old woman who had been subjected to her partner’s violent outbursts. The man appeared before the Lorient court on September 28 for an immediate trial. Last Thursday, the victim broke down in front of the two women, telling them about the beatings and insults before showing them her injuries. Terrified and threatened with death, she had not dared to go to the police. The two Jehovah’s Witnesses then alerted law enforcement. https://www.letelegramme.fr/morbihan/pontivy-56300/a-locmine-elle-confie-son-calvaire-aux-temoins-de-jehovah-son-compagnon-condamne-a-un-an-et-demi-de-prison-ferme-7127081.php

Cause by poor diet is the root of the problem said the Gastroenterologist

Im not suprised he got capital punishment for killing 13 persons. According to the article last public execution was in 1936. I think killing a murderer in front of victims family is one thing or in front of people close to the crime but streaming it live for billions to watch is something else entirely.

The day before, Jesus had fed 5000 people, the crowd followed him back hoping for another free meal. Jesus gave them a deliberately shocking answer ,to those thinking physically , but really very profound. This time, as our comment says, the benefit is not for a limited number of but we can all get the blessings. That’s great isn’t it !

Bread and circuses...

Your dog is family, i hope you keep it.

I keep thinking it's a bluff. Trump will blame someone else for not letting it happen.

It is horrifying to witness life snuffed out of a person as they gasp for their last breath. As a teenager, I was curious enough to try to attend one, unsuccessfully, in the early '80s. Those being executed were armed robbers, and the location lies between my high school and my home. Thinking back, though, the punishment seems fitting for the crime, as they were ruthless killers; it would still have haunted my sleep...

200 years ago all executions were in front of a live audience, no? Everyone in town could go watch the hangin'

Exactly the scripture I was going to cite. I am neither for nor against public executions because governments have a right to decide how they handle judicial cases, but I'll note it was matter of course in Israel to stone people to death so I can't pretend it's a "barbaric" concept to execute criminals. Each person will have to decide whether or not it is appropriate to watch.

Major earthquake destroys buildings, roads in Panama A powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake rocked Panama on Friday, causing buildings and roads to collapse in the center of the country but no immediate reports of casualties.

What kind of fuel do you use?

It has been warm er for the past couple of nights. Glad b/cmy dog and I have been trembling on the colder nights and trying to round up funds owed me in order to buy some fuel. If my life is that close to its end, I would prefer not to freeze to death (for both of us.)

Im still not accustomed to the south. Its 70F and the doors and windows are open. Im sweating. Love this!!

welcome in satan's world were nothing make sense anyway

Fatalities are counted even if the person lives several years, and the relationship to the accident is the cause.

Saturday, October 10 If anyone eats of this bread he will live forever . . . The bread that I will give is my flesh in behalf of the life of the world.—John 6:51. What Jesus said to his apostles during the Lord’s Evening Meal stands in contrast with what he said to the crowd in Galilee, where he was speaking in a way that was broader in scope. When Jesus was in Galilee in 32 C.E., he was mainly addressing Jews who wanted bread from him. However, he called their attention to something much more beneficial than literal food. He identified a provision by which they could gain everlasting life. And Jesus said that those who died could be resurrected on the last day and live forever. He was not referring to a chosen few, a limited number, as he did later during the Lord’s Evening Meal. Rather, in Galilee he focused on a blessing that would be available to all people. w24.12 11 ¶10-11
