Some Joe My God posts I wanted to share but was busy for two days changing my computer browsers.
So what started out to be a simple fix of a malware problem on the blogging computer I used to completely change all my old Chrome tabs into Firefox tabs. I don’t like the new agreements on Chrome about information gathering no matter who you make your settings to prevent. Basically everything you do is recorded and sent to Google. It is frustrating. Firefox has less work ability and on Chrome I could always recover old tabs if I did not delete them in entire windows, even on other devices. So far Firefox doesn’t seem to have the same ability. If I start to lose to many pages or comments, then I will have to switch back. While privacy is important I need function much more. I need to be able to switch open tabs from one computer to the other to clean them. I will try this but it may not last.
Here are the open Joe My God posts I wanted to share before this all happened. Enjoy.

And is the republican party dead and reborn as the tRump cult … here is this.
And it total partisan Christian Nationalist news ….
And in bigotry thuggish maga right wing behavior wins news … But think about this. We have normalized and now accept that people going into a store and destroying the merchandise and attacking the staff is OK as long as it fits our religious or political beliefs. Is this what a civilized society is or has become?
Lastly in the SCOTUS corruption news.
I’m running out of things to say and words to say it with.
Israel carries out new airstrikes in Gaza amid growing outrage
BREAKING: Israel Strikes Sheltering Palestinians In Open Defiance Of Recent ICJ Order
The horror of the illegal Israeli strike in refuge camp Rafah, where Israel kept insisting all Palestinians MUST go to be SAFE, Israel has now been attacking. After Joe Biden, Mr lets play nice and get the Israeli’s to not do it, and the rest of the world body said stop the illegal action now, Israel has committed another war crime.
These people are trapped in a burning tent caused by the strikes, the injured / death toll is still coming but it is catastrophic because … Israel told these people to go there and they would be safe. Israel is shooting fish in a barrow, but these fish are humans, Palestinians, and Israel does not count them as human! Understand what Israel is doing and realize what the end goal always was. They want the eradication of Palestinian people and the land they are on. They have killed tens of thousands of them, and they want to kill the rest. Israel wants Gaza land for itself as even Jared Kushner tRump’s Middle East envoy said the land would make beautiful sea side resorts. In recent reports we learned Israel military were told to target aid workers and that they deliberately targeted medical people in any role. The goal was according to the military to stop, prevent, and keep others from helping Palestinians! When they tell you who they are, believe them the first time. Hugs. Scottie

Florida Educators Train To Teach Christian Nationalism
And more on the attempt to force Christianity on everyone else kids in public schools regardless of the parent’s religion, here is the attempt to teach that the US is and should be a Christian nation whose laws, morals, and rules should be based only on the Christian bible I present this. Yes in Florida where the legislature passed letting Christian religious leaders be untrained school counselors but DeathSantis the governor claimed that no other religion especially the Satanic Temple. Of course the law can’t be used that way but the die hard rabid fundamentalist Christian are desperate to push their religion and only theirs on the public. Side issue, it is hilarious how the fundamentalist Christians freak out over the name not realizing the religion is a science based social civil rights based faith, not one that worships their devil. Although with the way they are anti-science and ant-civil rights for anyone not white, straight, and cis maybe they should freak out. Hugs. Scottie
Popular Information reports:
Training materials produced by the Florida Department of Education direct middle and high school teachers to indoctrinate students in the tenets of Christian nationalism, a right-wing effort to merge Christian and American identities. Thousands of Florida teachers, lured by cash stipends, have attended trainings featuring these materials.
According to speaker notes accompanying one slide, teachers were told that “Christianity challenged the notion that religion should be subservient to the goals of the state,” and the same hierarchy is reflected in America’s founding documents. That slide quotes the Bible to assert that “[c]ivil government must be respected, but the state is not God.” Teachers were told the same principle is embedded in the Declaration of Independence.
The next slide in the deck quotes an article by Peter Lillback, the president of Westminster Theological Seminary and the founder of The Providence Forum, an organization that promotes and defends Christian nationalism. The group’s executive director, Jerry Newcombe, writes a weekly column for World Net Daily — a far-right site known for publishing hundreds of stories falsely suggesting Obama was a Muslim born in Africa.

The Christian nationalist materials were obtained through a Freedom Of Information Act demand.
As the piece notes, Peter Lillback is a signatory to the infamous Manhattan Declaration, which calls on Christians to commit “civil disobedience” against LGBTQ rights.
