God and the State

Posted on April 21, 2014 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, government is intent on replacing God, and in doing so they demand equal supplication. This is not a new thing, the ancient empires all did it. The Egyptian Pharaohs were considered the sons … Continue reading →

Uplifted People

Tolerance

John Kennedy’s Legacy

Posted on November 25, 2013 by john
