Supporting the Democrats on abortion
Norma, Collecting My Thoughts - 13 hours ago
On Resurrection of the Dead day you'll be asked about your support of the party that has killed millions of helpless babies, because Jesus IS coming back. He said there are sheep and there are goats. He has said some go to Hell and some go to Heaven. By their own actions he'll know who has done what. Matt 25 makes that clear. You've said you don't approve, yet you support the Democrats and all the media that push abortion for any reason and any stage of life. No one gets elected as a Democrat if they don't support the euphemism "Women's health," or "Women's right to choose." Pelosi...

Christopher Columbus’s discovery of America in the last decade of the fifteenth century can be seen as an unexpected consequence of the failure of the Crusades in their Eastern Mediterranean campaigns between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. Columbus and the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand II, who were blessing his sea expedition, were inspired by the ideology of the Crusades. They were hoping to discover new sea routes to the Indies which would enable Spain (basically Catholic Europe) to outflank their great Oriental rival whose power was risin...
