@DenverTeslaClub Who in the Denver Tesla Club could direct me to a Non-tesla repair shop in the denver metro area? I need a rear drive unit repaired in my 2016 model X. Tesla Centennial has not been helpful.
In Revelation 13:18, the apostle John recorded the mark of the beast using three Greek letters: Chi, Xi, and Stigma, written as χξς.
What makes this visual comparison so chilling is how closely those ancient characters mirror the Arabic phrase Bismillah, meaning "in the name of Allah," paired with crossed swords.
If a 1st-century apostle was shown modern badges of allegiance worn across foreheads and right arms, this is remarkably close to what he would have seen and penned. 📷
Typologically, the parallels are impossible to overlook. Scripture warns that the spirit of the antichrist explicitly denies both the Father and the Son, changes set times and laws, demands total submission, and beheads those who refuse to bow.
The warning remains clear. Be discerning, stand firm in truth, and keep your faith anchored in Jesus Christ alone. 📷

This made me laugh so hard I cried. 😂😭 SPOT ON.
I live on the Wyoming border — except I’m on the commie side. I can see & smell freedom from my house.
I wish Wyoming would just adopt Wellington and take us out of this fresh hell.
@SaraHermanw0 This is such a foolish post. I am old and I have voted many times in South Dakota. I always expect to be asked for my ID and I always proudly show I am an American, VOTING!

Almost none of the core story is true. It takes a few real, limited facts and inflates them into a claim that Mother Teresa personally ran “the largest child trafficking pipeline in history.” There is no evidence for that.100
What is actually documented
In July 2018—more than 20 years after Teresa died in 1997—police in Ranchi, India, arrested a Missionaries of Charity staffer (Anima Indwar) and a nun at a home for unwed mothers. They were accused of selling a small number of babies (reports cited about three or four) outside official adoption channels, with payments around $600–$1,800. The order said it was shocked and against its rules; it had already stopped participating in India’s official adoption system in 2015. In June 2026 an Indian court acquitted the two for lack of evidence. That is a real scandal at one facility long after Teresa’s death—not proof she built a global sales network.92
Other pieces that have a grain of truth but are twisted:
•Charles Keating did donate a large sum; Teresa wrote the judge asking for leniency. Critics have used that for decades as an example of poor judgment about donors. It is not evidence of trafficking.100
•She accepted support from Haiti’s Duvalier regime. That is also a long-standing criticism of her fundraising, not a trafficking link.
•Hillary Clinton did help open the Mother Teresa Home for Infant Children in the Washington, D.C. area in 1995 after Teresa pressed her on adoption as an alternative to abortion. The home later closed (commonly reported around the early 2000s, not a mysterious 2012 disappearance of children). There is no evidence it was a trafficking front.115
Missionaries of Charity ran (and still run) many homes for the poor, sick, and abandoned. They facilitated adoptions for years. That is not the same as processing “over 3 million orphans” as merchandise.
What is not supported
There is no credible reporting that Teresa sold babies, that her order moved 3 million children for $15,000–$50,000 each, that annual “revenue” was $50–100 million from sales, or that the Vatican Bank ran $8 billion in anonymous funds through her network as a trafficking slush fund. Fact-checks by AP, Reuters, PolitiFact and others have repeatedly rated “Mother Teresa sold babies / trafficked children” as false. The 2018 case is routinely misdated and attributed to her personally.101
The Epstein–Maxwell–Brunel–Haiti “supply chain” claims, the idea that her homes were the precursor to Epstein’s network, and the claim that her 2016 canonization was timed to bury a 2018 raid are conspiracy stitching. They are not documented by investigations, court records, or serious historians of her order.
Teresa had real critics in her lifetime (conditions in some homes, pain management, donor choices). Those critiques do not add up to her running a secret global child-selling operation. The tweet’s version is a recycled internet narrative, not a verified history.
Jim, thank you for posting this story. You are truly blessed to be able to experience the Tesla together. I would like to know how cheap your electricity is at home. Here in SD it is the wild,wild west. No rules and certainly no representation by the PUC since both Xcel energy and Black Hills energy run the show. The PUC just says yes sir/mam, you get whatever you want. One of my neighbors has a peak demand controller built into their house and they only pay $0.02-0.08/kw with black hills energy. I do not have a choice, I have only one provider, black hills energy. My rate is $0.14 and I am on an all electric rate in my home. When I call to ask about getting a peak demand controller they said it would cost over $2000 thus not be worth it. I sincerely hope you have a vastly superior utility choice in your area. I would bank on it, you do compared to SD.
@Ryan_Parkerrr no different than any other time EVER! I have always shown my ID to vote in South Dakota. When will the rest of America wake up and join states with common sense laws.
@vohnvest John do you have a rollout strategy? How many robotaxi's will you order when the floodgates open from Tesla? How will you clean them day one and moving forward? Will you buy them from an LLC for tax purposes? I have seen net returns on this anywhere from this graphic on the low side of $19,000/car/year all the way up to $30,000/car/year after expenses. What do you project?
**No, the claim in the video is not accurate.** It significantly exaggerates and misrepresents what Bill C-9 Bill C-9 received Royal Assent on June 18, 2026, and its main provisions came into force around July 18, 2026. It amends the *Criminal Code* to strengthen hate-crime measures. Key changes include:
- Creating a standalone hate-crime offence for crimes motivated by hatred (based on factors like race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, etc.).
- Making it an offence to intimidate or obstruct access to places of worship, schools, community centres, and similar sites primarily used by identifiable groups.
- Adding an offence for wilfully promoting hatred by publicly displaying certain symbols (e.g., those associated with listed terrorist entities, specific Nazi symbols, or a noose).
- Defining “hatred” more clearly in the Code (drawing from Supreme Court of Canada precedents like *R. v. Keegstra*), as an intense emotion involving extreme vilification and detestation—not mere offence, disagreement,
One notable change is the **repeal of the previous “good faith” religious defence** under section 319(3)(b). Before this, someone charged with wilful promotion of hatred (or related offences) could use as a full defence that they, in good faith, expressed an opinion on a religious subject or based on a belief in a religious text. That specific statutory defence is gone.
However, this does **not** mean Canada “criminalized the Bible,” that “preaching Scripture [is] now a ‘Hate Crime’ Risk,” or that “quoting the Bible on marriage, sin, or God’s design for sexuality can now be prosecuted as ‘wilful promotion of hatred.’”
- The core offence of wilfully promoting hatred against an identifiable group (section 319) already existed and still requires a high threshold: intentional communication (other than in private conversation) that promotes extreme hatred, not just disagreement or traditional moral teaching.
- Official statements and fact-checks emphasize that ordinary religious expression, sermons, teaching from scripture, or good-faith discussion of religious texts do not meet this standard. The Justice Department has stated that religious sermons, texts, and teachings delivered in good faith (including from the Bible) would not qualify as hatred
- The bill includes “for greater certainty” language clarifying that the provisions are not intended to prohibit good-faith statements based on belief in a religious text, discussion, or debate on matters of public
Critics (including some faith groups, civil liberties organizations, and opposition politicians) raised legitimate concerns that removing the explicit defence could create a chilling effect or leave more room for selective enforcement or investigation in edge cases, depending on context, accompanying commentary, and how prosecutors apply the law. Some analyses note that certain biblical passages (e.g., on sexual morality), if framed in a particular way that meets the extreme-hatred threshold, *could* now face greater risk of charges without the former automatic defence. But simply reading, quoting, or preaching scripture does not
In short, the video’s dramatic framing (“Canada just criminalized the Bible!”) is false and has been repeatedly debunked in similar claims circulating since the bill advanced. The law tightens aspects of hate-propaganda rules and removes one specific defence, but it does not ban the Bible or turn standard religious teaching into a hate crime. Freedom of expression and religion remain protected under the Charter, subject to the same high legal thresholds that applied before. Not true.
@IowaTesla No matter which way he goes 2-4 wheel drive the #1 priority is running Michelin cross climate 2 tires. I am on my second set, 70,000 miles on first set.
@IowaTesla Jim, YES, my same exact reasons for buying 2020 model Y in August 2020. Now 128,000 miles and the out of pocket extra maintenance beyond new tires is only $1150. Awesome car!
