I think you guys are really smart.
Makes me think.

I think there are many like me.

My mom and dad fought 44-45 and my older brothers fought in Vietnam. There were seven in my family and every one but me and my younger sister fought some war, somewhere.

I NEVER thought my kid would fight some stupid war - I never did - and I know they didn't think so either. They fought to stop that, really.

We are our parents or grandparents children - that is really why we are here.

And God does bless every single one here because of that fact.

Joe

1. Isn't it great, the stuff you learn here? I
cherish the truth, and the people who help me see it.

It is wierd the way things point you to it, sometimes.

Life is a really strange journey, isn't it??

2. The pursuit of the truth and of knowledge is your salvation. Remember it.
Keep asking questions. Keep researching. Only through knowing the world and knowing the cold reality of the world can you take the first step towards changing it for the better. My best advice to you is to make the pursuit of truth and knowledge a family tradition; weave it into the cultural fabric of your family, and don't suspend the search for the truth and a better world just because Democrats hold power. You have to question authority and keep it in check no matter who holds that power.

The pursuit of truth can be your lamp in the darkness if you choose.
