"looked me dead in the eye" is in the same league of stuff that never happens as "and then everyone clapped", or "random person asked me about a personal quirk and I presented my dissertation for 30 minutes while they listened with rapt attention".
In other words, /thathappened.
Trades are wildly overrated. I say this as someone who worked a trade for 8 years. Trades have long hours, unhealthy environments, high risk of injury. The pay is only good if you work copious overtime. It's not for everyone.
Except that not even Jesus knows when he's coming back:
“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
-Matthew 24:36-44 [NKJV]
2 Timothy 3:12 - "Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution." [NJKV]
John 15:19-20 - "If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also." [NJKV]
Matthew 5:10-12 - "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." [NJKV]
All believers should be prepared for persecution. Read your Bible. Pray. Give thanks for what you have because you don't know what tomorrow will bring. The Holy Spirit will give you strength and words to endure persecution.
Maybe this is my ignorance speaking, but the use of all-caps, phrasing like "earn a living", and the overall format/presentation, all points to this being yet another half-assed "meme" and not any kind of real legal document.
Poor phrasing on my part. What I meant is that people lump DDT in with other harmful substances, when in fact it's not remotely harmful. The real harm was banning it, which allowed mosquito populations and the diseases they carry, like malaria, to proliferate. In fact, there have been millions of preventable deaths in the decades since the ban.
You can find the EPA's transcript of the hearing where they admit that there's little scientific evidence to support a ban other than projections and speculation (read: FUD).
DDT is safe. "Experts" declared it to be harmful to humans and wildlife. It's the other way around.
I listened to him a few times but I got tired quickly. It feels like all he does is read the same news that I do but put his spin on everything that happens. Everything is rationalized and construed to give the appearence that "patriots are in control". It's very repetitive.
I live in a state with a mask mandate and I still don't wear one. So far only Costco has denied service over it, the rest don't seem to care about enforcement. So there's literally no penalty to ignoring the "mandate" yet everyone's wearing a stupid mask anyway. It's just mindboggling how everyone jumps when the TV says "jump".
That's a false dichotomy. There are lots of things that we can do and are doing.
Go to your school board meeting. Contact your local representatives. Talk to your neighbors. Focus on your health and fitness. Work to get out of debt.
Just a few examples off the top of my head.
It's not a vaccine, it's experimental gene therapy. It doesn't contain an attenuated version of the virus; it contains mRNA, which programs your cells to start producing the spike protein.
So no, I will not be taking it, and I certainly won't be going to a hospital. I knew someone who went in recently. They put her on Remdesivir before the covid test results came back as a "precaution" . We convinced her to reject that treatment but it still bothered me that she wasn't informed of side effects or anything like that. I have zero trust in the medical field right now.
