People are perplexed a school shooter in the USA is a female, but fail to point out she was attending a Christian school, established by a pastor that had to “step down” due to infidelity & abuse claims, have his son take over, & the son also stepped down almost 10 years later for the same things.

Between 1912 and 1937, prior to pasteurization 65,000 people died of TB contracted from consuming raw milk in England and Wales alone. That's just one disease.

Now, H5N1 has been detected in raw milk in California.
Please make informed decisions, people.

Maybe it’s the cynic in me but the Lighthouse was run like a Christian organization for two decades by Don Windels, and nobody batted an eye. Don and 90% of the board were from Christian Centre/Mile Two. 😒
