Watch the Handmaids Tale much? I still take this as an indictment of conservatives and ginning up fear of conservative values. However I am always glad to read you opinions.
Yes sir, I've never seen that show, but I've seen the advertisements. I certainly can see where a conservative Christian would take issue with my article and I want to point out that lately Christians have been unfairly targeted as being responsible for all of the bigotry and hate in our nation, which of course is not the true message of Christ. I always note that thanks to Christians, who make up the majority in our nation, freedom of religion has always been extended and protected for all. Thanks for reading. Be well. Eric
That is why I like reading your opinion pieces Eric. We don't see eye to eye on some issues but you have a trait that is becoming less and less prevalent. That is common sense. Thank you my friend for expressing your opinion and being willing to listen to different ones.
Thank you sir. I appreciate that. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week. It's going to be hot. Drink plenty if you have to cut that grass. :)
I couldn't see the verse to make a comment.
This is wonderful news. I think NC and other states should enact this law quickly.
Ms. Marino's visits were thanks to the Lincoln County Public Library. It was the library that set up the school visits and workshops at all three branches.
The City of Lincolnton certainly collects more than 8% of the county-wide sales tax within the city limits. And the change to ad-valorem from the per capita formula reduces that measly percentage. The county commissioners should be ashamed.
