March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

"Last month, many Facebook users participated in a challenge that required them to post 10 books that have influenced them.

Using the responses to this challenge, Lada Adamic and Pinkesh Patel, two Facebook data scientists, complied a list of the 100 most frequently mentioned books, which included the Holy Bible and the Book of Mormon.

"We gathered a de-identified sample of over 130,000 status updates matching '10 books' or 'ten books' appearing in the last two weeks of Aug. 2014," Adamic posted on Facebook.

"The demographics of those posting were as follows: 63.7 percent were in the US, followed by 9.3 percent in India, and 6.3 percent in the UK. Women outnumbered men 3.1:1. The average age was 37. We therefore expect the books chosen to be reflective of this subset of the population."

The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling came in as the No. 1 most influential book, followed by "To Kill a Mockingbird," The Lord of the Rings series, "The Hobbit" and "Pride and Prejudice."

The Holy Bible was listed in the sixth position, while the Book of Mormon was listed in the 35th position.

The Book of Mormon has also been found on other lists of inspirational books, including a user-voted list that ranked the book of scripture as No. 1 earlier this year."
