for Megan regarding "Faith, Fear, and Fascism: Jennifer Welch on MAGA and the Bible Belt"

Jennifer _______________being interviewed by Katie Courig     podcast "I've had it"

She spoke about being told horrible things would happen to her if she did not believe in Jesus/Salvation.

Did you have the same experience?  In all my years as a Christian, including even when I was a little girl going to Sunday school, I never had this experience.  I do recall when Julie went to Horse Riding Camp  (CIRCLE C) that she came home and told her mother that she was scared from things she heard.  

She spoke of the belief that morals come from religion.  

I don't claim that God anointed Trump to be president.  

I don't have blind faith, I don't think everything he says or does is right or good, while I am aware that some people just don't see that he is less than a good person.


CROSSWORDS CATHEDRAL  Oklahoma

Personally, I never had a pastor who lived lavishly.   BUT, I know of those and have little respect for them.

like Jim Bakker.  I recognized that he had a huge ego the first or second time I saw him on TV.  I was not surprised when he was a arrested.  

Caroline Leavitt:  

I agree that Trump is "morally flawed".  

Elon Musk has funnelled 276 million dollars into Republican groups and superpacs since July 2025?

Citizens United?  what is it?



Jerry Falwell Jr.hired a pool man to have sex with his wife, and he watched.   (president of Liberty University) said we are going to support DJT and they all (EC's) fell into line.

Rep. party for decades enmeshed itself in churches in the SOUTH.  (this did not happen in the NORTH)

YIKES:  God wants you to vote for Bush  (SIGN IN FRONT OF CHURCH).

Christian Nationalism.  her friend Ruth Bankeeyot expert on fascism helped write the book.  said it takes the same mentality (cult mentality), strong man propped up by oligarchs (what are they) and by the cult of personality.  

E.Chr. easily co-opted by Putin, the NRA, 

Franklin Graham  in T's corner.   Speaker said there is a lot of  anger in white evangelical America (because they want America to be a Christian nation).   .She claims in order to be an E.C. you have to suspend critical thinking and have magical thinking.  HAH!!!!   She thinks E.C's have made a bargain with God, that he will deliver the USA as a Christian nation

 I slept pretty good last night.  I don't remember getting up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom!  For sure I did not get more than five or six hours, but at least I got that much.  I finished up putting together my Christmas box in order to take it to Freedom Church this morning.   I went to the Ladies Life Group.  I think there were nine or ten of us there this morning and it was a very good meeting.  At the end, several of the group decided to go to Wendy's for lunch but I decided not to go.  I went to WalMart and picked up a few items and had lunch at home. I talked to Connie on the phone for a while regarding her appointing me as her agent (Health Care Proxy, Power of Attorney and Executrix of her Estate).  She has all of this set up with someone else, but she changed her mind about that person.    After my nap I went to SOLID ROCK to pick up a spaghetti dinner.  After I ate, I went out for a walk and also...

EAGLE WATCH at the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge and more: 2/1/2020

Image
Betty and I went to the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge for the EAGLE WATCH, which was part of the IO Palooza event today.  She picked me up and we drove to the Visitors Center on Casey Road.  There were several things going on in this building, and they were offering pieces of cake. The event was a celebration of the  20th year of Iroquois Observations.   We had cake, walked around a bit and went into the gift shop.  We got directions to the location of the Eagle Watch from a worker and then headed to the Cayuga Overlook. They had scopes set up for visitors to see the eagle and the nest.   I took this picture through the scope. We wanted to hike a bit so we got directions from the ranger how to get to a certain trail, but we could not find the road to it.   We headed to the Tonawanda Indian Reservation so we could have lunch at Jan's Sah-Da-Ko-Nee Restaurant.  We entered the reservation via Bloomingdale Road, the road the re...

Week of Sunday, August 10th through Saturday, August 16th, 2025 (Recipe for Crazy Crust Pie)

 SUNDAY:   I took my trash out early today and it was SO HOT, that I felt that my breath had been sucked out of me.  I messaged Jan about it, since her asthma really bothers her in hot weather and I knew that she might be better off staying home from church.  Church was very good, the Eastmans performed and spoke.  After church, Glenda, Andrea, Marlene and I went to THE OLIVE LEAF for lunch.  I had the turkey dinner, which was very good even though they did not serve my gravy on the side like I requested.  I brought a lot of turkey and also my whole gen salad home.  Andrea told us the story about how she and two of her kids along with other people in a church she attended in Ohio went down to New Orleans to help out after Hurricane Katrina.  When I got home, I watched part of the four part documentary about  it.  HURRICANE KATRINA:  Race Against Time.  Crazy Crust Pie 1 C. flour 1/4 C. sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 t...
