I am NOT a hugely - what you would call "religious" person.
I was almost shocked to read a passage from the Bible that is pretty much my motto in/with my life :
"Refuse to let the world corrupt you"
James 1:27
It really is a bit of wisdom that is more appropriate (in my opinion) NOW than at any other time. I mean, come on, there is so-called "social" media where people spend every day bashing, insulting and rehashing hate. To me - a "social" setting is a place to gather and talk and exchange things with people you want to and choose to be around. I personally don't want to spend my time "socializing" with people bemoaning how bad, stupid or whatever others are for not agreeing with their ideologies. Back in the day, I spent some times in bars, and it wasn't to be berated, chastised or (should I say it?) bullied by other bar patrons? NO!

Corporate America cares????
I was reading an AP article entitled, "To avoid overdoses, some test their heroin before taking it"...so let me get this straight - it's now a matter of there are ALOT of junkies in the USA, so let's make sure they don't o.d. by selling drug potency test kits?
Please don't get me wrong - I am not a heartless lunatic who wants anyone to die - I just find it way, way to bizarre that by not trying more methods to stop or prevent drug usage - companies are making money on addicts?
You know the boardroom mindset is, "Hey I see there's alot of deaths from people od'ing, ya know, we need to help (said in a sarcastic tone) this people. Research how cheaply can we develop and get a say...oh I don't know meth testing kits...non, no..a - wait a heroin potency test kit...how bout $1 a test strip? Really, we can do it - great - get on it and let's have to market A.S.A.P. Ah ain't it great, and with our great demand and supply system..oh ha ha..supply and demand system, we'll be rich....um...er, I mean, saving untold lives before ya know it"...
Good old Corporate America has such a huge heart doesn't it?
