My view is that there is a new rulebook in play for national politics. We’re in a transition period now where most folks are still assuming the old rules apply.
Today’s layoffs have been a tremendous shock to the system and I wonder what is going on under cover of this development.

@annegillies.bsky.social Equal information is important for integrity. Rules were bent tonight. How people filter, interpret, and pass along information is difficult to predict. Sometimes, but not always, it is important to check fb and Bluesky since dynamics of information flow can be helpful

And third, the Resurrection, Christ died on the Cross so that we may be Absolved of Sin. Simple as that, but so complex. Why? Why the Lord chose to kill his only son is a question that deserves deep contemplation and thoughtful consideration. I have some personal thoughts on the matter ....

And so three elements to my personal religious philosophy ... Reason, Revelation, and Resurrection (R-Cubed in the vernacular).
A description of Direct Revelation that seems pretty close to the Truth can be found at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_.... I especially like the LDS take on Revelation.

Good morning, People,
Change is fine and healthy ... the pendulum swings ... rapid changes threaten to destroy the pendulum especially changes in societal norms and conventions, which can be destabilizing as checks and balances in the Constitution are abrogated.
