Abortion, why can't everyone see what is going on?

Freedompath comments on May 27, 2019:

Such shallow ideas. People are not herds to be reckoned with. They are individuals with all kinds of circumstances, unknown to the wider population. We have public and private lives!

Freedompath comments on May 26, 2019:

Ok, then abortion is not for him. But, a Pope (as much as I appreciate this Pope), cannot speak for all women and their bodies and their health. This may be what the Catholic religion wants to uphold...but it can’t be written in stone and applied to real women.

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

Thinking about it is not encouraging! It is blatantly clear everyday... just how many people saddled with running this Country, has limited capacity and there seems to be no remedy in sight! It almost seems that the ethical and moral people are in the minority! Not, to mention...it does not appear that people can be forced to be more ethical and moral.

Sad isn’t it...we would have been more accommodating if he had just kept to his tv show. I bet even his ‘cult,’ would have been ok with that! We all would have gotten the best that was available at the moment and at least had a leader that we cannot now...stand the very sight of!

A couple weeks ago, an experienced volunteer who had dedicated her life to working with Pitbulls was...

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

Over my lifetime, I have read many accounts about the pit bull. My brother owned one that was kept on a long running wire. There is no doubt in my mind that dog would have harmed me, if it was loose. I have known people who owned gentle pitbulls. And I am a dog lover, but I would not adopt a pitbull. My observation tells me, that there is something in the nature of some pitbulls, that lays dormant and comes out, under certain circumstances, and it is unknown. Then some people ‘temper’ their pitbull to be aggressive. Even that owner could be in danger. If the pitbull is mixed, there is a better chance of a gentle nature, but there is no guarantee there. This is just what I have experienced. I am grieved to put a dog down, but in this case, I believe it best, for other dogs and humans.

2 or 3 weeks ago i was having a hard time and i mainly complained here on the health support group.

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

Glad to hear things seem better for you. We all need a hand-up, every once-a-while! I shutter to think what life would be like without others to commune with?

He would know! So far we can criticize Trump. I wonder how long that will last.

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

You may remember the killings in the office of Charlie Hebdo in Paris a few years ago.

Freedompath comments on May 25, 2019:

Your words caused me to think how people invented a god, then proceeded to speak for him (and it was a him). People felt so powerless in and of their selves...that they had to invent an imaginary figure to give them back up...and they believed that others would never have the audacity to dispute something that ‘they’ could convince you...was real and could not easily be disproved..,especially, if you are ill informed, which the zealots count on! They used fear (of your fellow man) and the promise of a great life...that was never-the-less out-of-sight! All make-believe to gather a herd...you can do what-ever you want with a herd of people on your side! Just look at what trump is doing with a ‘herd of people on his side,’ and he is using ‘god.’

This just made me laugh so I joined this group to post it. ,[tenor.com]

Something is going on here, that is not being revealed...this deranged president must have major support from unknown and known sources! We are doomed if we can’t force our elected officials to step-up for the interest of this democracy and the people who are depending on it!

Freedompath comments on May 23, 2019:

If ever a president has engaged in enough criminal behavior to be impeached..,I believe it is trump! Since there must be hearings...before any impeachment can take place...now is the time to start the process! No toying with the idea, this is serious and needs to be ‘on purpose!’ This Country has waited long enough for trump to ‘settle in,’ to his job! His best ‘settling’ days are behind him and we see what that has got us!

Who is this asshole? [foxnews.]

Freedompath comments on May 23, 2019:

If you want an unbiased opinion, ask this dude! Trump has brought to the surface the ‘lawless,’ people and as it turns out they are lawyers, the rich and doctors (brain surgeon Ben Carson), no time to dig-up the complete list...it goes on and on and on...

Say What ?

Freedompath comments on May 23, 2019:

Oh but that is necessary...all work and no play makes this president cranky! What else would he have to show for his time away from his TV? He really is more like his supporters than we give him credit! A rich (maybe) con-man.

No need say anything further, right?

Freedompath comments on May 22, 2019:

It has been ridiculous to me, as well. Politicians ofcourse praise the man/women that goes off to war, that probably may never return to his family and friends alive. If he does return, he may be physically and mentally impaired. They want to keep enticing more warriors to sacrifice themselves for the war machine! It is promoted as a great honor to be a dead soldier or even a wounded warrior, by those who see no value in diplomacy...a give and take on issues important to each party. The leaders in this Country seem to have a penchant for division as exhibited by the way our own government is managed at this very moment! They see no need to try and understand a foreign countries needs and demands...just send our young men and women to sacrifice their lives under the illusion they are protecting American freedoms...let’s face it, I see the US as warring nation! How often have you heard of a diplomatic breakthrough in resolving conflicts anywhere? Just propaganda to promote some financial gain, in one fashion or the other! I grieve for all the young people who never got to live their life and the wounded ones that suffer a life of pain! War is created out of Ignorance and young people who wanted a life, must sacrifice it instead!

I could really use some cyber hugs and gentle words.

Freedompath comments on May 21, 2019:

That is sad indeed! In this case, I think I would clear it up with your daughter, but if a similar situation happens again, I would write a letter of complaint to the Principal. The reason that I would have this approach is these people are everywhere and he may be able to teach science by the book, for now. Where was he educated? Why/how did this person choose Science, we ask? Somehow, we must learn how to cope with this kind of personality.

But, I suspect big changes will take time, in the Catholic Church, depending who ‘rules the roost!’ Pope Francis is a great start, but even he can’t move ‘heaven and earth.’ And, human nature being what it is, could find the next Pope, going backwards! The Catholic Church still welds enormous power in the world. That bothers me!
