Trumpism: A Dominionism Populist Movement and what can be done
The mob that desecrated the Capitol building, ending with destruction and death on the 6th of January, did so because they believed Trump when he told them that the 2020 election was fraudulent. Incited by Trump’s words, they marched and stormed the Capitol. We witnessed the Trumpism movement at its worst. Among those at the rally proceeding the break in at the Capitol building along with Maga hats, American and Confederate flags were signs proclaiming “Jesus Saves.” Seven buses from [...]

Coping in the midst of the pandemic
Here it is now September and the virus is still with us - cropping up where people gather without masks and social distancing. How did we as a nation become so selfish? or is it that our current president is a malignant narcissist and only thinks of his own vanity. I have joined Red Letter Christians and Braver Angels.
