My kid donated blood and they gave her a gift card. Then they called her a couple days later and said they’d give her fifty bucks to donate “platelets”. She declined. I didn’t know selling blood was still a thing. Kind of weird.

America's second-largest cicada swarm is about to emerge across the East Coast
This brood of cicadas represents 'unique' phenomenon, experts say

Brood XIV will emerge in states ranging from Georgia all the way up to New York, according to the University of Connecticut.

"It seems like the weather this year has been quite strange — the emergence is well underway in North Carolina, but further north, because of the cold weather, it hasn’t even really started yet in Pennsylvania," he added.



"People should keep in mind that what they are seeing is unique — there is no other place in the world where such a thing happens, and they are found only in the U.S.,"

Because you have beef with them like most Catholics off-shoots.
We aren't Catholic off shoots. Literally everything Catholics believe, we don't.

Haven't seen any here. People ate the larvae because Biden's economy here was so good...

Catholic Church is the original. St. Peter started it...I think. Probably.

Orthodox is the only true religion.
  Orthodox is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. Greek, Russian etc...

"Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy."
  Unless you're Catholic then you can just change it to Sunday...😆

That's a fairytale. No proof Peter wanted to be crucified upside down.

Everything I know about Christianity I learned from: The King of Kings, The Ten Commandments, Ben Hur and The Exorcist. Also, I read the Bible...all of the New Testament. I only used the Old Testament to research ways of justifying my sins. They were pretty violent back then.

Most PROTESTANT churches have lost their way though. Marrying perverts for instance.

Last time I checked they tortured and brutally murdered Jesus Christ in the New Testament ...so I wouldn't say the New Testament is exactly violence free...

I wouldn't think he'd want it. I'm actually more interested in the Romans. They really are a stand-out among historical people as far as having their shit together. I was just talking about this at work with Sal, Sal, Giovanni and Sal. The tile work, the buildings, aqueducts, roads... Government, politics, education. They were more advanced than anyone and unlike the dirty Saracens, the Romans left every culture and nation better for having been under their rule. 

The lesson for us is: Don't let soulless savages emigrate into our empire. Look at what's happening to Europe. The whole continent's becoming a ghetto. China's probably buying boat tickets for all those dirty North Africans and sleazy South Asians.
