Trudno nie zauważyć, że podsycanie przez media tej koronawirusowej histerii służy jedynie wymuszaniu histerycznej legislacji i zastraszaniu ludzi aby przyjmowali kolejne trujące szczepienia.... more »
Why The Media Black-Out On President Trump's Massive Vote Totals In Georgia's Primary This Past Tuesday?
*American Thinker: **Media try to hide Trump's success in Georgia's primary* More evidence of our garbage media: Try to find Trump's vote totals in Georgia's primary election. It's not easy. Most sites (The New York Times, local NBC media in Ga., etc.) are showing totals only for the Democrat primary. Here's (probably) why: according to Newsweek, running unopposed, Trump has 140K more votes than Biden (~770k to ~560k) and more votes than all Democrat candidates combined.

The translation of the concept of Goddess
And my appearing first as the figure of the Asian Goddess, the Chinese “Woman of the Sun” figure of mythology, becomes more and more a personal presence—personable as the Mother of God, as friend on the highway of life. The translation of the concept of Goddess to that of compatriot, sister, mother, dearest heart is somewhat of a difficulty to those who yet consider life in these outlandish terms of the separation of the world of "the gods" and that of "mere mortals". You can hear even in the expression the old leftover consciousness of the Nephilim who subdued their mechanization ... more »
