There isn't a big difference, true, but the cult of tRump, if allowed to win again may well take us over an unstoppable precipice. And, yes, some think that may be good. I doubt it; the top military leader came out and said they will not get involved in a disputed election - we can take this multiple ways, including: the military needs to always stay neutral; or, tRump can do whatever he wants and we don't care as long as we get our money; other possibilities....

China, due to its size, is taking a different approach to world leadership - throwing money at the little guys and taking their resources (we did a little of that in the past, but most of our money went toward a strong man's weapons, while China builds infrastructure).

Catholic doctrine says all living beings have souls, but only humans go to heaven - such B.S. We are just animals, no different than those that we eat, except we have figured out how to control things for our "well being." So, if something would come after, why would it favor us over other life?

TRUE LOVE WAYS - PETER AND GORDON .

Beowulfsfriend comments on Aug 20, 2020:

Peter Asher and his sister Jane were child actors in the 1950s. They played siblings in a 1955 episode of the television series The Adventures of Robin Hood. Jane Asher dated The Beatles' Paul McCartney between 1963 and 1968, and Peter and Gordon recorded several songs written by McCartney but credited to Lennon–McCartney.[1] Those hits included "A World Without Love" (US & UK #1), "Nobody I Know" (US #12; UK #10), "I Don't Want To See You Again" (US #16, but not a hit in the UK), and "Woman".[1] With "Woman", McCartney used the pseudonym Bernard Webb to see whether he could have a hit song without his name attached.[1] First pressings of the US Capitol single listed the composer as "A. Smith". The song reached #14 in the US and #28 on the UK Singles Chart in 1966. Peter and Gordon also recorded the John Lennon-penned Lennon–McCartney song, "If I Fell", which was previously recorded by The Beatles and released on their 1964 album, A Hard Day's Night.

It is not that I believe "all life is sacred" because there are some people out there who should not be walking the Earth. That said, I do not believe that a nation should, at anytime, kill one of their own citizens.

I don't call them lies. The brain is a great mystery, still, even as our knowledge grows. Machines can only measure so much. NDE's are interesting because they often bring about profound changes in some peoples personal lives. The Egyptians used to lock future leaders in trunks, depriving them of oxygen and trying to bring on NDE's. All that said, always go with the simplest explanation - they are not supernatural; they are, in some way, related to brain activity.

He held up traffic for quite a while and while he saved miles, he certainly didn't save time, having to reinflate his tires. And, he heard a lot of angry shouts from the locals; I was polite and just watched.
