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

Jennifer _______________being interviewed by Katie Courig

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 this.  


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".  

Jerry Falwell Jr.hired a pool man to have sex with his wife, and he watched.   (president of Liberty University)

forgiveness without accountability (heard of evangelical Christianity)

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).  

Paula White (WH Spiritual advisor) ???  has said that to disobey Trump is to disobey God.  THANK GOD, I have not been in a church that says this


Rare for strong Democrat to be an Evangelical Christian.

Ruth__________helped write the book.What is the name of the book?

DAY EIGHT of Alaskan Cruise: Thursday, September 18, 2025 Skagway

Image
 This was what I saw out the window when I got up. The RUBY PRINCESS had stopped and we were in Skagway!  We had breakfast at the Botticelli (I had a soft boiled egg, toast, oatmeal and a banana) and then we returned to our room to get ready for getting off the ship and going to Skagway.  We got tickets for Shuttle #10 and went down to wait to be called.  Things moved along fairly quickly. The shuttle boat was one of the lifeboats, it took us to the mainland.  This is a view of the RUBY PRINCESS from the port.   When we arrived we took a shuttle to the downtown area where we walked around a bit. The downtown area has a lot of interesting shops, etc. but we did not have time to go in many of them.  Here are a few pictures:    We found a geocaches in the library (hooray). And you can see it in this picture that I took.   We picked up a few free items from various jewelry stores.  There were a lot of jewelry stores, and we did ...

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...

October 20,2020

 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...
