Ban the Thin Blue Line

Jim Bauer @porwest (113628) • United States 13 Aug

Just Something For Your Consideration

J.N.R Dutton @jnrdutton (3479) • United States 6 Aug

Dear All, Many people identify themselves with their politics, their ethnicity,etc. That's the wrong framing. We are made in the image of God, and who He made us to be is our identity, not all the labels we heap onto ourselves....

Exotic Animals as Domestic Pets

Amber @AmbiePam (124805) • United States 3 Aug

Do you think it should be legal to have exotic pets at your home? I don’t mean wildlife organizations that jump through hoops to get permits. I mean like the case in my city with a resident whose cayman got out and is currently...

J.N.R Dutton If the exotic animal is actually dangerous (like the one you mention) then I don't think they should be allowed in a residential area,no.

J.N.R Dutton @jnrdutton (3479) • United States 4 Aug

The Bible says not to create "graven images". A graven image is literally an idol. If you want an example of a graven image, the golden calf is one,look it up in the Bible. I'm writing this because there was a woman who...

What Can You Eat on Carnivore Diet?

Courtney Dutton @MommyOfEli2013 (91980) • Rupert, Idaho 1 Aug

I shared the other day about what a carnivore diet is. I thought it might be too long to share all the foods that you can eat on a carnivore diet though. By diet I mean way of eating, not necessarily "diet" where you are...
