That would be me. It’s okay though. I caught the mistake in about 25 minutes and the water had not yet boiled out of the macaroni.

If you want to be smarter, make sure to only read and listen to truths..

If you don’t mind being dumber, read and listen to liars.

It’s simple common sense, at least to most people. Then again, some people prefer lies. That is true, though I haven’t a clue why. Faced with the truth, they turn to lies because they prefer them. As said in the scriptures, when people see the light, they seek the darkness. They prefer the evil over the good.

If the local police turned over illegal aliens who also convicted criminals to ICE before releasing them, it has substantial advantages for all.

1. It drastically decreases local crime, which decreases the load on police, courts, jails and prisons.
2. It makes it safer for one and all. As ICE agents recapture those released on the streets, it is more dangerous for the agents, bystanders, and the criminals themselves. Indeed, turning them over to ICE might even save the lives of the criminals, themselves.
3. If the illegal alien realizes that he will be deported after committing a crime, he just might be encouraged to be on his best behavior. That is to say, he just might decide not to steal that car or rape that young woman.

The Democrats want no part of it though. Indeed they do anything and everything to keep that from happening. It is as if they don’t want any of the above to happen. Could it be they want the the theft, the murdering, and the rape. Why in the world why they want to do that. Maybe you can tell me.

The football was kicked, and the player backed up to get into position to catch it. Then, he apparently tripped and fell backward. A few minutes later, the Seahawks scored a touchdown.

In a moment of misjudgment, consequences became clear. The extended pause granted by a year’s reflection offers an opportunity for profound personal growth. Those fleeting seconds that serve as a powerful catalyst for contemplating for the year. The experience promises not just individual learning, but a broader lesson that resonates with others, creating a ripple effect of understanding and change. This period of contemplation will likely forge a path of wisdom, ensuring such errors remain firmly in the past for him as well as those that observed.

Just a while before, another man made a mistake. He decided to interfere with law enforcement officers in there job. Worse, he brought his gun with him. This man will not have a year to consider his error. An agent spotted the gun and seconds later the man was dead.

Hopefully, others will learn from his actions. I don’t know. It has become very clear that neither the mayor nor the governor figured it out. Well, maybe they did. They have found their club with which to attack the agents and Trump. Nothing would please them more than for it to occur again, providing still another weapon to attack good men doing their jobs.

It would be a good idea for us all to remember what this man seemed to overlook. When these agents are doing their jobs, they do get a little jumpy when they encounter a gun. Personally, I don’t blame them.

I suppose I have half a dozen or so questions. I know I will not know the answers to those questions even if I live to be a thousand. Only after my death will I know. Still, if I could ask God, I would really like to understand.

I happened upon a man preaching about the original sin, that is, when Adam ate that fruit. I think most would like to know what the fruit was. To me, that is but a mild curiosity. What I want to know is just what would have happened if Adam had immediately confessed his sin instead of trying to hide it, and then blaming it first on God and then on Eve.

We are cautioned about speculating, but from what we are told, I do believe we are given this account for a lesson to take to heart. It is an example of how we should admit our wrongdoing and own the wrong we do.

When we first read the questions God asks and the answers of Adam and Eve, I get the impression that the judgment was not just for eating the fruit but also for not accepting responsibility.

This brings to mind, just what would have been and how it would affect history if Adam and Eve had not tried to cover up what they did. Unfortunately, until I can ask God, I can only speculate.

However, I think I can assume that trying to blame others is never a good thing, even when it seems to work.

Teaching has been an unexpected wellspring of wisdom for me. The most profound lesson I’ve discovered is that true mastery of a subject emerges through the act of teaching. When you attempt to explain a concept to others, any gaps in your understanding become glaringly obvious. To teach effectively, you must comprehend the material with such depth and nuance that you can articulate it from every possible angle, revealing the intricate layers of knowledge hidden within.
