    I'm 5-10 & 165 or so. Never had a weight problem. Active as a kid. Lived in the country, gardened, fishing, hunting, active. Even ran a mile long trap line in winter to make a bit of money in furs. Not much money though. Cold, freezing, dirty, work. A muskrat was worth 75 cents, a nice large...

    Why do Westerns force christmass on others

    I think it's a real stretch to feel Christmas is being forced upon others by merely saying "Merry Christmas". I cover bases by saying "happy holidays to you and yours". This phrase carries no religious undertones. "Happy holidays and have a great New Year". What's wrong with that? We are friends...

    Why do Westerns force christmass on others

    To all members who are not insulted by "MERRY CHRISTMAS". If that was insulting I apologize. Have a fun holiday season. (that was safe yes?)

    Trump's son's business looking to hire six H-2 foreign workers @ $10.72/hr

    I didn't like either candidate. So I went with the lesser of two dangerous people. At least I hope I did. For me it was a case of liking Hillary a bit less than Trump. Either way we Americans must live with it. Positives for Trump: He owes no one anything. He appears to get on well with Putin...

    Why do Westerns force christmass on others

    I suspect a LOT of people celebrate Christmas without any mention of religion. To me it's a national holiday bearing no religious value at all.

    Why do Westerns force christmass on others

    Although most Christians celebrate December 25 as the birthday of Jesus Christ, few in the first two Christian centuries claimed any knowledge of the exact day or year in which he was born. The oldest existing record of a Christmas celebration is found in a Roman almanac that tells of a Christ’s...

    Why do Westerns force christmass on others

    My uncle Wilbur was a fundamentalist lay minister and NEVER celebrated Christmas as a religious holiday but as a National holiday. He never believed Jesus was born in December ( he wasn't) and uncle placed no religious significance on the holiday. My mother was a Jehovah's Witness so did not...

    The Bible, its Pussyfooting Translators, and its Lack of Veracity

    Jorge Mario Bergoglio says evolution and big Bang are real

    Ponder this: IF "God" made a man and a woman and stopped with that pair. Being a man and woman they had sex and gave birth to children as the Bible says. With that small gene pool why do we have so many different humans? Oriental, white, black, red, yellow, skin tones etc.? If we sprang from the...
