I still don't know how they get their money or continue to recruit new members. I don't know if Tom Cruise made money or spent more money on them than he made. |

I can't but read what he said, it's statements like that are the reason I have him blocked. I would say more but I would get suspended for sure. Just ignoring him is your best bet. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | I think Terapined genuinely has a good heart, unlike many liberals. He's wrong often [lol]. Got to get away from Murdoch news/infotainment. I recall he used to watch RT. He must have quit though, to be saying such scurrilous things about Vlad?

'Often' is one word for it.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Appreciate your post I had to look up RT I don't know where you got that from I did watch some Al Jazeera when I had access Bottom line, both left and right wants what is best for the country Just our definition of best is different and how go about achieving best is different The left and the right need to view each other as the loyal opposition rather then enemies I can see EB really hates me. No doubt EB considers me an enemy. lol Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Actually at one time, the IRS went after scientology Scientology calls itself a religion due to the enormous tax breaks The IRS considered scientology a business Scientology plays hard and dirty They would vandalize homes and cars. Kill pets. The harassment was very devious and constant The IRS asked scientology would the harassment stop if they decide scientology is a religion. Scientology's answer "like a faucet" Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Very hard to have an exact value, but it would be in the trillions. Amazing what 1700 years of theft and unlawful seizure can amount to, and gigantic gifts given when the Church's boot is on your throat. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 188 Posts: 18629 | Reminded me, I wanted to look up Zerohedge news.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge If people notice a news site is pro Russian, I can't think of much reason for that than it is pro-Russian. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
