Beowulfsfriend comments on Jan 11, 2020:

There is talk about reclassifying the Eastern coyote. They are not as aggressive as the Western ones. They are also larger, probably from breeding ith wolves and dogs on their trek East. Coyotes are now seen in most large urban areas. Some people even welcome them, saying they eat more rats than the feral cats will. I don't know about that; I do know that since the 80's I have seen and heard them out East.

Beowulfsfriend comments on Jan 6, 2020:

Having been an English teacher, I would have enjoyed teaching a course on creation myths. That would have made a wonderful look at the imaginations of humans and how they explained what we now know as science. Technically, I did some of that in teaching Greek myths and when I taught American literature I always included Native American stories.

Welfare for all can be paid for - first go back to Clinton era taxation, reduce military spending, and for corporate welfare, well, give them medacare for all and, thus, no corporations need spend many on health insurance. There are many ways to make it work, and over time money would be saved. Access to foreign and cheaper drugs or laws to stop price gouging can be initiated.

Are you truely agnostic or an athiest in hiding?

Beowulfsfriend comments on Dec 31, 2019:

Truly, I am truly agnostic leaning atheist. Yes, we know a fraction of space, even the ocean, but what does that have to do with religion? It is science. Science grows and changes and expands our knowledge while religion curtailed it. One thing I AM sure about - no Abrahanic religion is real. Nor any with gods that think and act for humanity. Maybe there is some cosmic link - me being agnostic. Until proven, and how would one do so(?), I stick to science and all we currently know. No fairy tales for me.

It will help! :P
