@MAGAVoice The main reason Coke still uses HFCS is cost. Corn subsidies + sugar tariffs/quotas make it significantly cheaper than cane sugar. Shelf-life difference is basically negligible. Remove the artificial price advantage and the economic reason mostly disappears.

A small public service announcement from the Department of Things That You Should Know…
It has not “peeked” your interest.
Nor has it “peaked” your interest.
…It has piqued your interest.
You are not “phased” by something.
You are fazed by it.
If you’ve had a long day, you are weary.
If you suspect someone is an idiot, you are wary.
It is “due course”, not “do course”.
“Per se”, not “per say”.
And while we’re here, it’s “could have”, not “could of”, but that particular battle may already be lost.
Thank you for your attention during this brief outbreak of grammatical housekeeping.
This has been a @LairdofthManor announcement.🎩💙
More than a landmark.
Century Tower was built in memory of students and alumni who died in service. This Memorial Day and every day, we remember and honor them. 🇺🇸
The stone is rolled away.
The tomb is empty.
Jesus is alive!
Death has been defeated.
The debt for all our mistakes has been paid.
Jesus is victorious over the grave.
And the same resurrection power that raised Jesus from the dead is available to you today.
Death does not have to be our final destination. We can be citizens of Heaven if we put our trust in Jesus.
This is the hope of Easter. This is the hope of the gospel.
He is risen indeed.
Everyone knows Britain was part of the slave trade. 🇬🇧
What you don't hear enough is who ended it.
Slavery didn't start with Britain. It started over five thousand years ago.
Africa's own slave trade ran for over a thousand years, before a single European ship arrived.
The Arab world traded slaves for over thirteen centuries.
Every empire in history was built on it. Nobody had ever ended it.
Britain did.
A law was passed. A date was set. August the first. Eighteen thirty-four.
Eight hundred thousand people would be free.
And when midnight came... They were all free.
The largest act of emancipation in human history.
A five-thousand-year-old system. Ended. Because the British people said so.

The quiet moments are often the most important. Last night just before Cabinet members walked onto the House floor for the President’s State of the Union, we joined together in prayer, giving all thanks and praise to God, and praying for the clarity and strength to listen to Him, serve Him, and do His will.
Phil, I think you've heard the gospel before, but who knows. Here goes:
This is what the bible says about how you can be sure you are going to heaven when you die:
1. Admit you are a sinner and that the penalty for that sin is death.
(Romans 3:23) "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"
(Romans 6:23a) "For the wages of sin is death;"
2. Believe that Jesus Christ loved you so much that he died for you and paid for your sin with his shed blood on the cross.
(Romans 5:8-9) "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. {9} Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
3. Confess with your mouth to Jesus that you are a sinner, that he died and paid for your sins, and that you believe he was resurrected three days after burial.
(Romans 10:9) "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
If you sincerely believe these 3 points then you are saved for all eternity. This isn't hard to understand. God made it so simple even a small child can understand it because he wants everyone to be saved.
"The man on the middle cross said I could come..."
This might be the best 3-minutes of preaching I've *EVER* seen. If you don't feel this in your soul, you need to check your pulse 😭🙌
