“A legal group is planning to file bar complaints against four lawyers representing failed Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake in her baseless voter fraud litigation.” 1
For those that may seem disparaged by the “Christian” White Nationalists and the Republican Party, please find a little solace in the song by Elton John and Rina Sawayama.
Lyrics: Where do I belong? Tell me your story and I’ll tell you mine I’m all ears, take your time, we got all night Show me the rivers crossed, the mountains scaled Show me who made you walk all the way here
Settle down, put your bags down (Ooh) You’re alright now
We don’t need to be related to relate We don’t need to share genes or a surname You are You are My chosen Chosen family So what if we don’t look the same? We been going through the same thing You are You are My chosen Chosen family
Hand me a pen and I’ll rewrite the pain When you’re ready, we’ll turn the page together Open a bottle, it’s time we celebrate Who you were, who you are We’re one and the same, yeah, yeah
We don’t need to be related to relate We don’t need to share genes or a surname You are You are My chosen Chosen family So what if we don’t look the same? We been going through the same thing You are You are My chosen Chosen family
I, I chose you You chose me I chose (Chosen family) I chose you You chose me We’re alright now
We don’t need to be related to relate We don’t need to share genes or a surname You are You are My chosen Chosen family So what if we don’t look the same? We been going through the same thing You are You are My chosen Chosen family
We don’t need to be related to relate We don’t need to share genes or a surname You are You are My chosen Chosen family So what if we don’t look the same? We been going through the same thing You are You are My chosen Chosen family
“Millions of Americans were surprised to see two ads about Jesus run during the Super Bowl on Sunday. Big game ads are notoriously pricey, and the idea that Jesus needs a slick marketing agency and $20 million dollars to get His message across felt cringey. It also drew concerns from those monitoring the activities of the religious right.” 2
Editor’s Note: Can you image what $20 million dollars could have done to help the earthquake survivors in Turkey and Syria?
“According to research compiled by Jacobin, a left-leaning news outlet, The Servant Foundation has donated tens of millions to the Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative Christian legal group. The ADF has been involved in several legislative pushes to curtail LGBTQ rights and quash non-discrimination legislation in the Supreme Court.” 3
“Many of you may not realize this, but Hobby Lobby and other so-called “conservative” Evangelicals are behind the new “He Gets Us” and “Jesus Was a Refugee” ads that are blowing up. These ads use the Bible and Jesus to validate and even promote the chaos at the border and also to appeal to the LGBTQ/trans communities.” 4
The marketing group behind “He Gets Us” has done one of the worst services to Christianity in the modern era. The Green family are decent wonderful people who have been taken for a ride by these woke tricksters. So sad!
I came across an article by Frank Martela on cnbc.com which points out that Finland has been named the happiest country in the world by the World Happiness Report for the fifth year in a row. This begs the question, “What do the people in Finland do that makes them so happy?” As it turns out, it’s not what they do, it’s what they don’t do that matters. One of the things that Finns never do is compare themselves to their neighbors, “especially when it comes to material things and overt displays of wealth.” Mr. Martela offers the following happiness tip: “Focus more on what makes you happy and less on looking successful. The first step to true happiness is to set your own standards, instead of comparing yourself to others.” Comparison really is the thief of joy.
