OLD SCHOOL
Yes, I was found out eventually after a long period. School report showed absences, and raised questions.My new school, a comprehensive, brought considerable change. New friends, activities, introduction to smoking. One thing that I remember particularly was getting the bus home for lunch and sitting next to someone who would become famous as a pop/rhythm & blues star, with his unique voice and group of musicians. We smoked during the ride and this was the routine for many days. Too young to smoke of course, but the bus was virtually empty & smoking was allowed then on the top deck.
"China is deliberately allowing the export of devices that turn handguns into machine pistols
I've noticed an unusually high number of local news reports of use of full.auto weapons in the past few months,.and heard a national news report a couple weeks ago of large numbers of the "Glock Switches" coming across the US Southern Border.
RE: UK & USA ELECTIONS THIS YEAR. UKRAINE?
Nobody can tell better. So, nothing to add…Yes, this war going for third year and no end…UK & USA ELECTIONS THIS YEAR. UKRAINE?
Why would Russia embark on a nuclear war when it knows it would be the end of its existence?The last scene from Planet of the Apes illustrates this.
Useless trivia
Not many people if any while on their hands and knees can look up at the stars eitherBut I have heard a few bark, and howl at the moon
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
But they have to chose better leadership, not some same 'ol hamas crap,until then I don't have an ear to lend. Not one.
Israel been too kind for too many years and here we are.
I hope they nwill NOT allow Hamas to continue after the dust clears.
What do you think gz, do you think Hamas will will represent the ganzians when all this is over with?
I think they will still be in charge yes.
So that is what I think of these "innocent ones":
they have to throw their own leadership!
What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
And I'm like, hey, celebrate the good stuff. But what I'm saying is when you look at the social media, you only see. The good stuff, you only see the white wash. You don't see what's really going on, you look at celebrities, their lives are jacked up. Do you think it's so cool to have dollars, not millions of dollars, to be movie stars? Their lives are falling apart on the inside. Your your athletes who are idols and role models, you know, different political figures, anyone that you look up to and even your neighbors that you look up to or or church members that you look up to you and there's all this good.It's not all good. Reality television is not all good, but that's what social media is. It's a white it's a whitewash. There's what you can see. But I'm not going to take a look at what's on the inside of us. Another place that this takes place is in the church lobby. This happens all the time. And here is the hypothetical scenario. Everyone's hanging out before or after church and you have the classic conversation starter. So how are you doing?
How are you doing these days to tell me what's going on? What's the answer? Always in the church lobby. Great things of great things. I'm so I'm so blessed. God is so good. And, you know, I'm not I'm not. If that is you and you have seasons in your life for that is true of you. I don't want you to make up stories of disappointments and, you know, anxiety and difficulty, you know, because everyone else is doing.
No, no. If you have if it's a good answer, honestly. But my point is that's how anybody ever answers only all the time. Like, what are the odds in one church lobby? Everyone's life. Life is great all the time. Here's something to probably consider. It's not great all the time we say we smile and it's good and we're blessed and God is good and that's all true. But we very rarely go and say, you know what?
This is what's actually going on in my heart. Can I can I can I remove the whitewash for a bit? Can I can I open it up and let you know what's going on here? Church lobbies are infamous. No, no, no. Just whitewash. A very important tip at this point, though, what I'm not advocating for is now everyone to gather together in church functions and everyone just vomit out all of their stuff, all of their all of the time 24/7.
What you probably what we all probably what we all really need is, you know, a couple of close confidants, a couple of close, like really close friends, trusted friends or mentors. We have people on a regular basis where you can say, what, I got this going on in my heart and I need to I need to share it. Things look good on the somebody I need to share what's going on here. Can you can you know me at this level.
I got to do this with with Pastor Jeff yesterday. We were hanging out at the end of our time. I just said he tried to me about a couple of things going on in my life right now. And I got to share those things with him and let him, you know, speak into my life and bring me counsel and pray for me and would desperately need that. Why? Because we have problems on the inside. It was always and pretending like there's no problem doesn't make the problems go away.
And so. Inscribed in the Ferris's, they appear nice on the outside, but inside they were spiritually dead and we can do the same thing today, two thousand years later if we're not aware of it. So those are the two walls from Jesus in these verses. In verses twenty five to twenty eight, they identify two feeble attempts to fix our heart problems while doing nothing to actually fix our heart problems. We can try to clean the outside or we can just put up appearances.
RE: WORLD DIVIDED
I agree...I visited those countries and others despite the political history...all I can tell you is that people need/want to earn a living and actually want to enjoy life without conflict...Keep in mind that some are easily duped or ignorant of how others live as some do not read about other countries or travel that will expose themselves to differences...(politically or culturally)
One reason some countries try to ban or block the internet from their people to reduce exposure to what the government does not want you to know...
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
I doubt Putin cares about his people...the Iranian government or the North Korean government...Kissinger was another one who had no problems with the needless American human casualties of war...the list goes on...now the USA has Sampson (Trump) in their elections once again...siding for fundamentalists who will vote for him to spread their agenda...Meanwhile...the Ukraine is being ignored...
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
True that Daphne. It's also about control, but whichever side people land on they never consider the innocents caught up in the middle ,it's all about blame.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
"Sal" & "Devil" was directed collectively at the comments of you & devilandangel.Anyway ... Right you are regarding Not using the Other (not so) Secret Weapons ...
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
I think most people know the Hamas regime does not care about the Palestinian people...so it is tough to be in a situation to support the killing of civilians no matter what side...Since Iran is not an ally of the west and vise versa...and because the aide victims that were killed by Israel...it will be interesting who will support who...
I see this as a war between governments...not ordinary folk...
Of course the governments will sell their strategy to their people via propaganda and omitting a few truths...jmo...
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
I’m curious what kind of united diplomatic response to Iran’s brazen attack it will be
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
haha sal@devil is not mine favorite)) sal was my mistake when i was too left. and i just cant change my profile nameIsrael also possess the other secret weapons and it is better that the world does not force Israel to use it
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
thanks Grand for your supportive words. I had a really terrible night, but now all is ok

RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Sal & Devil ...
It's been said the Jews in Israel possess a secret weapon ... The Have Nowhere Else To Go.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Yea, thanks to Sal for that info and support to her as well,she has family in Israel.
Looks like those drones would fly hour after hour to get there, at 185km/h.
Good info, Sal.MOSES & TABLETS OF STONE
If the arch of the covenant was ever discovered, it would be the one piece of historical evidence that would clarify many of the claims in biblical writings.RE: WORLD DIVIDED
My sister -in-law has just spent 4 weeks on holiday in Vietnam and Cambodia with stays in Singapore and Ho Chi Minh and loved it.Sadly it's the politics of a country not it's people that cause the problems.
WORLD DIVIDED
Is there a difference between living in North Korea and South Korea?Is there a difference between living in Afghanistan and Kuwait?
If you don't see a difference, and think if there is, it's an illusion, perhaps you should try a holiday there and report back.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Let me remind you, Iran is the country that have been sending weapons to the “Palestinians” and also money and that for many years.I would also like to say: Bad regimes like the Hamas in Gaza, first chosen by elections, then no more voting, since then (2006).
Irans government is not what the people want - votes were 24%
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
This is just another step towards more unrest. Israel attack's Iran's Embassy in Syria so Iran responds.What happens next is anyone's guess but it's scary as hell .The last 12 hours will make a significant difference as to what happens next and it's not looking good . The last thing we need is an all out war and wider conflict.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
3. a bit of sarcasmThe world community loves dead Jews. After all, shedding tears to the music from the film “Schindler’s List” is considered politically correct and is practiced everywhere.
But living Jews, of course, irritate Western liberals.
They, you see, want to live. And in their own country and without asking anyone. And they behave with the international community as if they have the right to all this. Terrible impudence
Instead of saying “oi vey” and silently scattering around the world or meekly going to further slaughter, doing something nice for European humanism - they, in response to the massacres of their civilians, are starting to eliminate the murderers! And, despite numerous warnings from the world community, they are not going to stop!
“But murderers are people too,” the world cries. Apparently believing that, in fact, they are people, not some kind of kibbutz people... They have wives (several ones), bills (dozens), children, the UN...
And today, after Iran's failed attempt to kill as many Jews as possible, the world is once again extremely concerned about avoiding war. Because Israel can f*ck back, and that’s terrible.
Peace to the world! - say today all people of good will, terribly irritated by the Jews, because of whose stiff-necked behavior gasoline prices are rising.
Hey, global liberal community! Berkeley and Harvard intellectuals, left-wing professors, peace activists, human rights martyrdoms—isn't anything bothering you at the moment? are you all right? I’m just very worried about your heightened conscience. Let me know that everything is in order and nothing will disturb the peaceful sleep of the fighters against Israeli colonialism today.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
sure my 2 cents1. Spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, said on the morning of April 14 that the IDF and allied forces shot down 99% of the missiles fired by Iran at night towards Israel. Military experts note that Israel's complete technological superiority over Iran has been demonstrated.
The vast majority of interceptor missiles were launched from Israel.
Israeli TV channel Kan confirms that minor damage was caused to the Nevatim airbase in the Negev.
Hagari confirmed that Iran fired more than 300 missiles and drones at Israel. 120 ballistic missiles, 35 cruise missiles and 170 drines Shahed 136, the same ones that Russia is using in the war against Ukraine
Israeli TV Channel 12 notes that not a single Iranian drone strike or cruise missile could reach Israel. They were shot down or simply fell in Iraq or Jordan.
2,For information

RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Iran has no intention of continuing its military operation against Israel, which included massive drone and missile strikes over the weekend, the chief of staff of the Armed Forces, Major General Mohammad Bagheri, has said.The US military in the Middle East intercepted dozens of missiles and drones, fired towards Israel from Iran, Iraq, Syria and Yemen, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said.
Iran sent at least 185 drones and 36 cruise missiles in response to the Israeli military’s deadly attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, The New York Times wrote citing Israeli officials.
According to the report, the majority of launches were carried out from the territory of Iran, although some drones took off from Iraq and Yemen.
Besides, Iran also fired 110 surface-to-surface missiles.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Biden vows "ironclad" support for Israel ...It's understood, of course, that "ironcladiness" is contingent on polling of "River To The Sea" Mohammedans in swing states Michigan & Minnesota.
RE: Israel is being attacked at this time
Those Drones can carry some pretty nasty Gifts that can do some serious damage to certain Infrastructure and other soft targets!Wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of one of those Things!
What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
And so Jesus died inside the tomb, a spiritual death, spiritual uncleanliness. But on the outside, what do you see? It's not a translucence coffin or tomb. So Pake and his white, white, fresh white paint keep those tombs looking really nice and clean. Don't look up on the inside of them, though, but just look how nice they are on the outside. Just stay focused on what the outside looks like. And Jesus told the religious leaders that what that's what they were doing.They were doing the same thing. They're just there is appearing clean to everyone that came in contact with them. Look how clean we are. Look washed we are. Look white. We are. But again, don't we do the same thing in our day and age today, in our in our culture today, we don't look far for examples. All of social media. Is this all of it? Our personal social media, Instagram, Facebook, people snap and now and tick tock and the whole thing.
I've done my own personal kind of unofficial, and I and I check off and I go on social media probably too much. But you know what I never see? I never see people posting for the world to see their marriages falling apart or them having breakdowns mentally because their kids are out of control or they're not sharing their failures at work or their despair or their regrets. Do you know what they're sharing just three times? Just the family portraits where everyone's smiling and you can see the little light of the teeth, you know, the Christmas postcard around the tree, everyone hugging in their sweaters and everyone having a good time or days at the beach or the highlights or the good stuff.
And I'm like, hey, celebrate the good stuff. But what I'm saying is when you look at the social media, you only see. The good stuff, you only see the white wash. You don't see what's really going on, you look at celebrities, their lives are jacked up. Do you think it's so cool to have dollars, not millions of dollars, to be movie stars? Their lives are falling apart on the inside. Your athletes who are idols and role models, you know, different political figures, anyone that you look up to and even your neighbors that you look up to or church members that you look up to you and there's all this good.
It's not all good. Reality television is not all good, but that's what social media is. It's a white it's a whitewash. There's what you can see.
