what a beautiful, unique soulful experience late last night with this homeless man in Las Vegas. he called my name as I walked by. I was surprised so I stopped to say hello and help him out with a little cash. He told me a story how he was at the launch of the #vanhalen #1995 balance Tour in #pensacolaflorida he told me what I was wearing that night, things I said. Remembered #jonstewart introducing us. this man was intelligent, kind, spiritual, and elegant. We talked for a while, and it was enlightening for me to realize how many people like him, families, etc., that have become #homeless I can see it. I just don't know what to do about it.
Teddy Roosevelt on how Christianity survived in Europe but was ended by Muslims invaders in Asia & Africa.
Those Asian & African Christians conquered were 50% to 60% of the Christians in the world at that time.
“Christianity is not the creed of Asia and Africa at this moment solely because the seventh-century Christians of Asia and Africa had trained themselves not to fight, whereas the Moslems were trained to fight. Christianity was saved in Europe solely because the peoples of Europe fought.
If the peoples of Europe had not possessed a military equality with, and gradually a growing superiority over, the Mohammedans who invaded Europe, Europe would at this moment be Mohammedan and the Christian religion would be exterminated.
Wherever the Mohammedans have had complete sway, wherever the Christians have been unable to resist them by the sword, Christianity has ultimately disappeared. From the hammer of Charles Martel to the sword of Sobieski, Christianity owed its safety in Europe to the fact that it was able to show that it could and would fight as well as the Mohammedan aggressor.
The civilization of Europe, America, and Australia exists today at all only because of the victories of civilized man over the enemies of civilization.”
We must fight to defend our civilization or it will end.

Chuck Norris held a 183-10-2 record and was a 6x world champion in full contact bare knuckle karate.
On top of that, he beat heavyweight kickboxing world champion Joe Lewis 3 consecutive times and also had a brutal sparring match with undefeated kickboxing world champion, Bill Superfoot Wallace, that lasted an hour and a half. According to Wallace, they practically stalemated and "beat the crap out of each other".
Chuck was trained in kickboxing/boxing by Benny The Jet Urquidez and was also trained in BJJ by the Gracies and Machados for 20 years. Even being able to submit Carlos Machado himself on occasion.
Chuck had a 315 Ibs bench press at 180 lbs bodyweight and was said to have a grip back in the day that nobody could escape from because he was so strong. Even Jean Claude Van Damme said he'd never fight Chuck Norris, despite being a kickboxing world champion himself.
Chuck held a 10th degree black belt in Chun Kuk Do, a 9th degree black belt in Tang Soo Do, an 8th degree black belt in Taekwondo, a 5th degree black belt in Karate, a 3rd degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and a black belt in Judo.
Rest in peace, Chuck!
Chemotherapy kills cancer cells. It also kills the immune cells that kill cancer cells. Most of oncology has accepted that trade-off. @DrPatrick never did. He built Anktiva, an IL-15 agonist that activates and expands your NK cells and T cells without triggering the suppressive cells that protect tumors. Saudi Arabia just approved it for lung cancer. First country in the world to do so.
I've been using IL-15 intratumorally in combination with other immunotherapy agents for years. What Dr. Soon-Shiong is doing at the systemic level, we're doing at the tumor level. The future of cancer treatment isn't about finding better poisons. It's about unlocking what's already inside you.
The Iranian regime executed a 19 year old for demanding democracy.
I stand with his memory and the thousands of other young Iranians.
Those who grieve the elimination of Iranian leaders over murdered protesters is telling.
There are all kinds of ways parishes can defend without armed guards. You must intentionally prepare for "what will never happen" like it WILL happen. The weakness is our own naivety about the will of others driven by Satan. Imagine the worst....now prepare for it. Pray it never happens.
@FatherChrisVor1 Thank you for addressing this Father. My father taught us "one who lives by the sword must be prepared to be consumed but the sword. God help you if you ever have just reasons but know that once you've crossed the line you don't return. You must deal with the consequences. "
@ThomasSowell If she has a liberal workforce they will all want to work remote and they'll call in sick every Friday and Monday....good luck with your clients.
