Ironically many people with a HS diploma are more based than those with college degrees. Universities are woke indoctrination camps.
Possession of credentials means nothing to me in terms of a person’s qualifications. Instead I look at their experience, their body of work, their character, and their inclination to do what is right, especially when that means going against the popular zeitgeist.
To my knowledge it isn’t accurate that 3 former British colonies are part of BRICS. I am only aware of the 2.
Sources I can find dispute BRICS as being a creation of the City of London, although the acronym BRIC (later BRICS) was coined in 2001 by Jim O'Neill, then-chief economist at Goldman Sachs, to identify fast-growing emerging economies (Brazil, Russia, India, China) that he projected would dominate the global economy by 2050. The term was introduced in his paper, "Building Better Global Economic BRICs".
The state is New Mexico. Net swing of 26,000 voters in favor of Republicans. “The Obama coalition has turned into the Trump coalition.” Working class voters. Saved you a click.

This one has always piqued my curiosity. The Emergency Broadcast System (known as EBS, not EMS) hasn't existed in almost 30 years.
EMS isn't a commonly used acronym in relation to anything similar to what is known as EAS, in the context of the Q drop.
The Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) was replaced by the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on January 1, 1997. While the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved the new digital system in November 1994, it was fully implemented nationwide at the start of 1997, replacing the older analog technology.
Is your point that old documents are no longer relevant? The US Constitution? The Bible? The idea that we somehow have more wisdom today than hundreds or thousands of years ago is chronological arrogance and is foolish.
“No one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.” Matthew 24:36
That being said…
“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” Luke 21:25-28
Depends who is asking, and when. It would be like the governor of an American state pushing for sovereignty. There’s significant political and personal risk in doing so.
Officially she is promoting a “fair deal” with Ottawa and for Alberta to remain in Canada.
However in one poll 53% of Albertans said they think Smith would vote to separate, and Alberta's NDP accuses her of acting as a separatist.
She is putting the Sovereignty Referendum to voters on October 19, 2026. It will be interesting to see what comes from that.
I appreciate the sentiment in your last sentence, but would point out in love that salvation is through faith in Christ alone, that He is Lord and that His bloodshed atone for all of our sins.
There’s no “part” that we can do our best in. Instead, Christ saves us first, and then we try to do good and are sanctified as an act of worship and gratitude for what Jesus has already accomplished on our behalf. “Faith without works is dead”.
When I get to Heaven and the Lord asks why he should let me in, I will humbly say by Christ alone - it was His obedience that covers me.
It’ll never actually happen but it’s a nice sound bite.
