Dating

I wouldn't use dating app I would just go to local club if you guys have any of those in your area first.
We don't have a dating club.

But there's plenty of single women in our skating club. Most of them are lesbians though as well around half my age! Instant friend-zoned! Not complaining though.

Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani defeats Andrew Cuomo, wins NYC mayoral primary

Mamdani has said he does not believe Israel has a right to exist as a Jewish state. He wants the grocery stores to be owned by the cities. He wants to use taxpayer money to create a transgender treatment facility that will include minors. The guy has it all. What a candidate.
Maybe he will take a pay cut too. Sell his house for way less than fair market value. He must drive a beater with that attitude ( probably couldn't change his own oil though actually) . Does he even bathe?

SkyWest flight performed 'go-around' to avoid colliding with a second aircraft -- a B-52 bomber

The SkyWest pilot identified the second plane as a B-52 bomber. The Air Force said Sunday evening that it was "looking into" reports of a military aircraft “operating in the same airspace” as a commercial airplane. It added that a B-52 assigned to Minot Air Force Base had conducted a flyover of the North Dakota State Fair on Friday evening.

The pilot says that the ATC tower instructed him to turn right but that when he looked over, he saw a B-52 bomber. He says that he was then instructed to turn left but that at that point, he looked over and "saw the airplane that was kind of coming on a converging course with us."

The second aircraft was moving faster than the SkyWest plane, the pilot says, so he made the decision to turn behind it.

"So, sorry about the aggressive maneuver. It caught me by surprise," the pilot says in the video. "This is not normal at all. I don't know why they didn't give us a heads up."

In the video, the pilot also mentions that the tower that serves Minot International Airport does not have a radar and that controllers rely only on visuals to make calls.

The Air Force Base nearby does have radar, the pilot says, which causes him to wonder why nobody said, "Hey, there's also a B-52 in the pattern."

"There are many small airports across the country that have commercial service that don't have radar. Instead, they'll have some sort of coordinating communication with another radar facility several miles away, perhaps with a military base," [aviation guy] Guzzetti said.

The key question, Guzzetti said, is how much coordination there was between the Air Force base and the airport.

Catholic parish, Christian homes set aflame in Syria

Fire was set to a church and dozens of Christian homes in As-Sawra al-Kabira (Al-Sura al-Kabira), a small village in southern Syria, according to multiple media reports.

Aid to the Church in Need identified the church as St. Michael (Mar Michael), a Melkite Catholicparish, and reported that 38 Christian homes had been destroyed. The homeless Christians took refuge in Shahba, a nearby small city, where “they are currently living in precarious conditions” in a church hall.

Reporting on the July 15 incident, Syriac Press quoted Father Butrus al-Jut, the parish priest:

They didn’t stop at the church. They burned and ransacked our homes. They shattered our windows, stole our belongings, and set our lives aflame ... This church is not made of stones. It is built on faith—faith that still lives in our hearts. And we will rebuild it.
“The Mar Michael Church, a modest stone structure with deep roots in local tradition, has stood as a spiritual and cultural landmark in Al-Sura al-Kabira for generations,” Syriac Press reported. “More than just a house of worship, it served as a gathering point for community events and a symbol of resilience in a region long known for its religious and ethnic diversity.”

WATCH: Epic Takedown of NGO Child Trafficking

Congressman Clay Higgins’ statement will likely cause some Catholic Bishops to lose sleep. Catholic NGOs collected over $3 billion in federal funds by trafficking illegal aliens under the Biden administration.

This week, the House Committee on Homeland Security held a hearing detailing how non-governmental organizations (NGOs) helped facilitate and benefited from the historic Biden-Harris border crisis, as well as how far-left NGOs are still working to help inadmissible aliens undermine federal immigration law under the Trump administration. Tuesday, Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability Chairman Josh Brecheen (R-OK) penned an op-ed in the New York Post outlining the importance of this hearing and the Committee’s investigation into these organizations.

Witnesses included Mike Howell, president of the Oversight Project; Ali Hopper, president and founder of GUARD Against Trafficking; and Julio Rosas, a national correspondent for Blaze Media––all of whom have investigated or reported on how these organizations work with Democrat officials and open-borders advocates to advance a pro-illegal immigration agenda.

In the hearing, witnesses laid out in detail how NGOs received more than $6 billion from the Biden-Harris administration, including through grants from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and others. They also testified about how the Biden-Harris administration handed over unaccompanied alien children (UACs) to NGOs, primarily at the border, who then delivered them to poorly-vetted sponsors. The Biden-Harris administration then failed to ensure proper follow-up communications to check on the well-being of the children, leading to more than 300,000 children unaccounted for in the interior. Simultaneously, many of these NGOs and their executives enjoyed substantial revenue and salary increases thanks to the grants.

As Texas Flood Deaths Rise, Officials Blast Faulty Forecast by National Weather Service

Conspiracy Theories About the Texas Floods Lead to Death Threats

Disinformation around a “weather weapon” and cloud seeding is being widely promoted by everyone from anti-government extremists to GOP influencers—leading to real-world consequences.

How a California cloud-seeding company became the center of a Texas flood conspiracy

Two days before the waters of the Guadalupe River swelled into a deadly and devastating Fourth of July flood in Kerr County, Texas, engineers with a California-based company called Rainmaker took off in an airplane about 100 miles away and dispersed 70 grams of silver iodide into a cloud.

Their goal? To make it rain over Texas — part of a weather modification practice known as cloud seeding, which uses chemical compounds to augment water droplets inside clouds, making the drops large enough and heavy enough to fall to the ground.

Soon after the flight, Rainmaker’s meteorologists identified an inflow of moisture to the region and advised the team to suspend operations, which they did, Doricko said. Around 1 a.m. the next day, the National Weather Service issued its first flash flood watch for the Kerr County region.

“The biggest and best cloud seeding operations we’ve seen to date have produced tens of millions — and maximally like 100 million — gallons of precipitation,” he said. “We saw in excess of a trillion gallons of precipitation from that flood. Not only could cloud seeding not have caused this, but the aerosols that we dispersed days prior could not have persisted in the atmosphere long enough to have had any consequence on the storm.”

But in the hours after the flood swept through the greater Kerrville area and killed at least 135 people, including three dozen children, conspiracy theories began swirling among a small but vocal group of fringe figures.

“I NEED SOMEONE TO LOOK INTO WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS … WHEN WAS THE LAST CLOUD SEEDING?” wrote Pete Chambers, a former U.S. special forces commander and prominent far-right activist, on the social media platform X.

Within hours of the deadly flood, Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said she was introducing a bill to make all forms of weather modification — such as cloud seeding — a felony.

That same week, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launched two newwebsites to “address public questions and concerns “ about weather modification, geoengineering, and contrails, or the thin clouds that form behind aircraft at high altitudes.

Doricko, Rainmaker’s CEO, said he was disappointed to see cloud seeding politicized in the wake of the Texas flood. He was taken aback when he saw that Rep. Greene had posted a picture of his face on X — “insinuating somewhat that cloud seeding, or I, was responsible for the natural disaster in Texas, when any meteorologist or atmospheric scientist could tell you otherwise,” he said.

I have lost all my zest for life

All I long for is to have a one-on-one talk with God face-to-face, like Moses had in Exodus 33 (it makes no sense that God would speak to Moses that way back in Exodus, yet he refuses to provide a similar means for people like me who genuinely desire God's guidance in their life). Does anyone have advice for me?

That would be very complicated. It would send the whole world into panic for God to descend in a massive cloud-looking thing just to talk to some Christians.

The stock market will tumble, panic buying, looting, chaos, sending superpowers at the highest nuclear alert levels. It will be like the end of the world.

It was so different back in the time of Moses. There were only few people and very large objects can land in the middle of nowhere without triggering alarm bells in some NORAD facility somewhere. They didn't have those things back then.

Otherwise, it's totally understandable if you don't hear God's voice either. There's always a sensible logic behind it. You're OK. You still have the Bible and gut feelings to discern stuff and help guide you in making decisions.

It can be as simple as "your time hasn't come yet". Have patience in waiting. Understandably the hardest part.

I have brain damage and all the huge problems it caused my whole life. I spent over 30 years waiting for healing. I seem to be healing now but it took very long like 30 years I have already forgotten about it.

Pope Leo XIV marks moon landing anniversary with call to U.S. astronaut Buzz Aldrin

Pope Leo XIV marked the 56th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing with a video call to U.S. astronaut Buzz Aldrin and a visit to the Vatican Observatory, located on the papal estate of Castel Gandolfo, where he has been staying for two weeks.

According to the Vatican, the pontiff’s July 20 call with the 95-year-old Aldrin, the last surviving Apollo 11 crew member, included reminiscing on the historic 1969 landing and meditating together on the “mystery, greatness, and fragility” of God’s creation as described in Psalm 8.

Earlier in the day, Leo visited the Vatican’s internationally-recognized observatory, called the Specola Vaticana, where he was able to look through the astronomical center’s historic telescopes.

The Vatican Observatory has been located on the papal estate of Castel Gandolfo, around 18 miles southeast of Rome, since the 1930s, but the history of the institution dates to the 18th century. After several years of closure in the late 1800s, Leo’s predecessor, Pope Leo XIII, re-founded the observatory in 1891.

The 666 mark will be a tattoo

From a folio cataloged as Yahuda MS 7.3g, f. 13v:

"So then the time times & half a time are 42 months or 1260 days or three years & an half, reckoning twelve months to a year & 30 days to a month as was done in the Calendar of the primitive year. And the days of short lived Beasts being put for the years of lived kingdoms, the period of 1260 days, if dated from the complete conquest of the three kings A.C. 800, will end A.C. 2060." - Isaac Newton

As Charlemagne was crowned king on December 25, 800 by Pope Leo the III so the day of Christ's coming may be on Christmas Day, 2060. If the rapture of the saints (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) occurs seven years before the time of Christ's coming the date of the rapture 12.25 2053. However Isaac Newton notes...

"It may end later, but I see no reason for its ending sooner. This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fancifull men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, & by doing so bring the sacred prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail. Christ comes as a thief in the night, & it is not for us to know the times & seasons which God hath put into his own breast." - Isaac Newton

Portrait-of-A-S-Yahuda-R.jpeg


I remember you always post this 2060 deal Rocky. And Abraham Shalom Yahuda was the man. So was John Maynard Keynes. Remember Keynesian economics? Both of those men were together in England biding at auction for Isaac Newton's writings. Abraham Yahuda wanted to bring Newton's materials on religion back to Jerusalem to put in a museum. He did win the ones he was after, but he didn't live to see them make it to Jerusalem as they we're tied up in the courts until 1969. Newton would have known to be looking for 1969. 1969 was rock and roll time. The Spirit in the Sky was here making Secretariat, as the Bad Moon was on the rise. It was a Secret.

Newton's Note on 2060 was a hoax, fake news. He said it right in there: "This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fancifull men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, & by doing so bring the sacred prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail. Christ comes as a thief in the night, & it is not for us to know the times & seasons which God hath put into his own breast." - Isaac Newton

He wasn't really saying when the time of the end would be, he put that there to throw people off when the time of the end would really be. Newton was worried, especially with it coming from someone of his prominence, that it might even violate Christ coming as a thief in the night. It's not for us to know the times and seasons. And it's still functioning to this very day. Because what Newton wrote in this little blurb, this short publicity note, was a publicity stunt designed to take people's attention away from what he really suspected the timing to be. This 2060 deal disagrees with what he wrote in his Daniel 9 commentary. Newton would have known to be watching for 1969.

So if that timing is correct, it means that a bunch of things, like your Mark of the Beast deal, has to already have just happened, and is happening now. Price action makes for market commentary. Here is where we trade the charts, do not trade a story. There's too many stories out there. Like how the pilot trusts, and flies by his instrumentation, when poor visibility precludes the use of GFR. We see through the glass dimly.

Our technical analysis, our charts and instrumentation as Bible People, are in those prophetic time periods found in Daniel and Revelation. If we can figure out we where are in those time periods, the Antichrist, and the Mark of the Beast, among other things, has to be happening now.

Cool video, spooky video, of where I think we are now.

So far, at least nine (now ~40) (now ~160) judges, including Trump appointees, have called a halt to Trump executive actions

Washington Post:
link2
President Donald Trump and his appointees have been accused of flouting courts in a third of the more than 160 lawsuits against the administration in which a judge has issued a substantive ruling, a Washington Post analysis has found, suggesting widespread noncompliance withAmerica’s legal system.
Plaintiffs say Justice Department lawyers and the agencies they represent are snubbing rulings, providing false information, failing to turn over evidence, quietly working around court orders and inventing pretexts to carry out actions that have been blocked.
Judges appointed by presidents of both parties have often agreed. None have taken punitive action to try to force compliance, however, allowing the administration’s defiance of orders to go on for weeks or even months in some instances.

How did Cain find a Wife ?

"And various other books" is as accurate as we can get.

No its not, since there are specific prophecies quoted in the New Testament, such as from Isaiah. Really, reread Luke 24 and then read Matthew, who explicitly points our fulfilled prophecies from throughout the OT.

Since Matthew is canonical we know Christ was at a minimum talking about those books, such as Isaiah, and also other Old Testament texts quoted elsewhere in the New Testament.

My Soul Weeps

“My soul cleaves to the dust;
Revive me according to Your word.
I have told of my ways, and You have answered me;
Teach me Your statutes.
Make me understand the way of Your precepts,
So I will meditate on Your wonders.
My soul weeps because of grief;
Strengthen me according to Your word.
Remove the false way from me,
And graciously grant me Your law.
I have chosen the faithful way;
I have placed Your ordinances before me.
I cling to Your testimonies;
O Lord, do not put me to shame!
I shall run the way of Your commandments,
For You will enlarge my heart.” (Psalm 119:25-32 NASB1995)

What does that feel like if our souls cleave to the dust, but we are followers of Christ? It sounds to me like depression. And it could have been brought on by some type of sin or misstep of some nature. So the need for revival could be of a spiritual nature involving repentance. Or it could be a need for restoration and renewal in a mental or emotional state where someone has been brought low and needs to be lifted up, encouraged, and restored.

And if we say that we have told the Lord of our ways, and we want him to teach us his statutes, that could be a confession of sin, and of a desire for renewal in the Spirit, or it could be that we have just called out to God in our difficult circumstances and prayed for guidance and direction in how to move forward and in what to do next. Perhaps we made some wrong choices, which were not sinful, but we need to make better choices in the future.

Either way, we are seeking the Lord for guidance and direction in knowing what to do next, in having a better understanding of what his word teaches us, so that we might make better choices in the future, and to not repeat the same mistakes (or bad or unwise choices). Regardless of the circumstances, we are seeking the counsel of the Lord, and of his word, to guide us and to direct us in the way in which he would have us to go, in order to please him.

But we need to be students of the Scriptures who study them in their correct biblical context, under the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit, who are seeking to know the will of God for our lives, so that we might do the will of God. We need to be in the Word of God every day seeking his will and purpose for our lives and to know truth so that we can obey the truth. And then we need to be putting the Word of God into daily practice in our lives.

So, if our souls weep because of grief, it could be grief over the loss of a loved one, or it could be grief over the loss of income and not knowing where we will get our next meal, or how we will pay our bills. Or it could be because we were judged falsely and treated badly by others. Or it could be because of sin. But whatever it is, we need the Lord Jesus to give us strength, according to his word, so that we might continue to walk in him.

And for him to remove any false way from us could be about repentance and spiritual renewal, or this could be for him to show us any false ways that we are believing, and to show us the truth, in opposition to the lies we have believed, so that we now follow the truth and not the lies. I know that I grew up believing some lies, and the Lord had to show me the lies I was believing and to reveal to me the truth so I would reject the lies and follow the truth.

But the bottom line here in it all is that this is about a desire to follow the ways of the Lord, and the teachings of the Scriptures, and to do the will of God, and to not go a wrong direction. And so we want to be shown, of the Lord, anything that we have been believing wrong or doing wrong (things we are not already aware of) so that we will no longer head the wrong direction, but now we will be going in the right way, which is the way of God.

As a result of all of this, our hearts and minds will change, we will grow closer to the Lord in our walks of obedience to him, in surrender to his will, and he may call us to a specific ministry we would never have considered previously. And we will be better prepared to answer “Yes, Lord,” and to go with God, because we have a closer more intimate relationship with him, and because we have a better understanding of his will and purpose for our lives.

[Matt 5:10-12; Matt 10:16-25; Matt 24:9-14; Lu 6:22-23; Lu 21:12-19; John 15:1-21; Jn 16:33; Ac 14:22; Rom 5:3-5; Phil 3:7-11; 1 Pet 1:6-7; 1 Pet 4:12-17; 1 Thess 3:1-5; Jas 1:2-4; 2 Co 1:3-11; Heb 12:3-12]

Lead Me Gently Home, Father

By Will L. Thompson, 1879

Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home;
When life’s toils are ended,
And parting days have come,
Sin no more shall tempt me,
Ne’er from Thee I’ll roam,
If Thou’ll only lead me, Father,
Lead me gently home.

Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home;
In life’s darkest hours, Father,
When life’s troubles come,
Keep my feet from wand’ring,
Lest from Thee I roam,
Lest I fall upon the wayside,
Lead me gently home.

My Soul Weeps
An Original Work / July 21, 2025
Christ’s Free Servant, Sue J Love

Where can I find the Bible videos of the ads on here?

There are ads on this website with a woman talking about God and the Bible, I am trying to find more of the videos and found them to be very helpful does anyone know where it can be found.
I find Wes Huff informative and interesting. I only came across him in another video giving some good knowledge and history on the bible. He is big on tracing the word meanings and context of the bible. But usually he is discussing a controversial verse or debunking false interpretations or assumptions about the bible meanings.

He also adds the tradition and history as well so you get to understand the context and put yourself back into that time and how the church and Christians would have understood the scriptures.

There are others like from Willian Lane Craif who is an apologist. He doesnpt have many videos apart from debating Christianity. But his works are very helpful in understanding the bible and giving rational basis for how it should be interpreted in the proper way.

15th and 16th century Christian wars Protestants having wars and even with eachother, what do we think about this today?

I think we can see after Christ the disciples were scared and disheartened as their Master was gone. Christ was teaching them but the full implications of that were not realised until after Penticost.

Then we see different disciples bold and like Christ willing to die for Him. This ignited the church and especially when opened to the Gentiles we see Christianity growing quickly and many attracted to what was happening in the church.

Then we see this long slow moving away from this initially presense of Christ that was captured in the early church before the true message was subverted. Once that was allowed though there was always Christs church lingering usually quietly in the background. The church has never been the same.

The Medievil time was still a time where the western world at least lived under God and the bible. There were always Christlike teachers and leaders. But they were overwhelmed by the machine that the church had become unbtil this day once they got in bed with the world powers and pricipalities.

So generally I think there was this initially Christlike church due to the closeness of the actual events. Then as we move away from this like many things its begins to be forgotten and then its questioned whether it is the truth and the challenges come.

This coincided wat the same time with the rise of the secular State. Which today has replaced the church. Now its the other way around where the State is the dominant power and dictator of peoples norms and worldview.

So we have just about had a complete flip on how it was for most of our history and especially the early church. Which to me seems to mean we are entering once again a time when the church was the minority and persecuted by the surroounding pagan world.

Was Col 1:24 (2nd Reading at Mass) preached to you today? If so, how was it?

Sadly, I didn't really get any teaching on this. That "what is lacking" verse always confused me. No one seems to teach what it really means. It seems as if Paul is saying that he is not yet done going through afflictions for the sake of Christ, but who am I to say?
Hello Lady Bug,

I'm sorry this is so long - please be patient. God's wisdom encompasses much.

We, the Church, are the Body of Christ. Jesus promised us that, because the world hated Him they will also hate us, His Body, because He is our head and our heart. Thus if the world bought suffering to Him (as it did!) it will bring suffering to us also. The world will bring suffering and rejection to any who, like Him, would reject the world in love for God in Christ.

It is no accident that the Greek word for “witness” is “martyr”, which in common understanding means “one who gives up his life for the Faith”. But more exactly, there are two ways that one can be a true witness of Christ - a true martyr - for the Holy Faith:
  1. a witness like the Apostle James, brother of John, who was the first apostle to be killed for the Faith - and a “red martyr” among many of the Church, a witness by his blood.
  2. A witness like the Apostle John (brother of James), the only apostle known with certainty to not have been killed for his Faith. John lived a long and fruitful life, lived in total self-gift for God, a beautiful example of a “white martyr” of the Church. [A brief but good article about white martyrdom is found in Catholic Exchange.]
The Apostle John was called, interestingly “the disciple Jesus loved”, or “the Beloved Disciple”. His Gospel presents, in remarkable simplicity, perhaps the most spiritual account of the Gospel, an account rich with nuances and hidden wisdom, pointing uniquely to the supernatural dimension of the work and mission of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Each of the four Gospels is rich and meaningful, but John’s is “different.” His witness and mission were unique.


Every true disciple - martyr/witness - hears and receives from Jesus a cross:
Mt 10:38 and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
Mt 16:24 Then Jesus told his disciples, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
Lk 14:27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
And St. Paul testified:
1Cor 1:18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Gal 6:14 But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
And also, Paul wrote of the part of the faithful in the Mission:
Rom 8:17 and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
Phil 1:29 For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake,

For some, his cross brings his physical death. For all, one’s sufferings and cross bring the death of his natural life - his old and worldly life - but the growth and maturity of his supernatural, spiritual and eternal New Life in Christ!

Why, all this? Why is suffering essential in the Gospel? Because we must die to the “old man” in us, in order to live in the “new man in Christ”. ONLY the pure, the holy, the true can enter the Kingdom of God. The old, the self-centered in us, must die. This fallen creation will perish, because Christ came to make all things new. We must come to trust Him absolutely, completely, with nothing held back. Our self-gift to God must be complete, to receive and live in His Self-Gift to us. There - in Him - is the peace, joy, and Glory God made us to seek and to find. God will embrace us for this, the imitation of Christ the Son, and the world will hate us and reject us precisely for that same reason.

The afflictions of Christ will be incomplete as long as His Mission is not yet finished. His Body will suffer as He did until the Mission is finished, when the last soul to be saved enters the ark.

Exodus 31:17 "in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth"

I don't think it matters if there was humans walking the earth long ago beyond the 6 literal days. I think this is what can help understand the verse and not trying to decide an entire meaning on one words definition.

This seems to happen a lot including in the Greek and new testament where the entire interpretation comes down to a word meaning. I think if we expand the criteria and include anthroplogy, archeology, culture, sociology, we will understand better what is going on.

For one regardless of the word meanings it is the context for which those words were written in. The worldview of those people who did not see the world as we do today. So their use of particular words is premised on their worldview and their worldview was completely different to ours today.

Seeking Christian fellowship and friends

Hi Evelina,

Thank you for sharing your heart so openly. Your story is powerful, and it’s clear that God has been with you every step of the way, even in the darkest seasons. I’m so glad you’re here—you are not alone anymore!

The faith and strength you’ve shown are beautiful, and I truly believe God is going to use your journey to bless others. Keep praying, stay close to His Word, and don’t lose hope. Even small steps toward healing and community matter.

If church life nearby feels cold, there are wonderful online Christian groups and Bible studies where you can connect and grow. And when the time is right, baptism can be such a meaningful next step.


You are loved, seen, and deeply valued by God. I’ll be praying for you and cheering you on.

Senate Passes Trump-Backed Rescission Plan to Defund PBS, NPR and Slash Bloated Foreign Aid

You do realize, of course, that the real cause of food shortages is not ethanol but meat. When you consider what a pig eats in its lifetime and how much protein it provides as meat you see the real reason for hunger. We could feed hundreds of people grains if we didn't use them for feed. So let's call The Heritage Foundation article what it is--misleading info financed by the fossil fuel industry.
