“However, I also want to say this. The ranch standoff that took place out in Nevada was not about a man named Cliven Bundy. At the heart of this issue was my belief that our government is simply out of control. Now, to me, this was about a federal agency’s dangerous response to a situation that could have resulted in a catastrophe, and that means people dying and people being shot, kind of comparable to what we saw in Waco, Texas.” PeopleMenWantHeartKindMeanGovernmentBeliefSituationIssuesSawsDyingDangerousShotsResponseAgencyTexasCatastropheMean PeopleNevadaPeople DyingStandoffs Author:Sean Hannity

“The US and UK governments' relentless backing for the global spread of genetically modified seeds was in fact the implementation of a decades long policy of the Rockefeller Foundation since the 1930's, when it funded Nazi eugenics research - i.e. mass-scale population reduction, and control of darker-skinned races by an Anglo-Saxon white elite. As some of these circles saw it, war as a means of population reduction was costly and not that efficient.” MeanLongWarFactsGovernmentWhiteRaceSawsPolicyMassResearchFoundationPopulationSpreadSeedsDecadesCirclesScalesEfficientElitesNaziRelentlessReductionEugenics1930sImplementationAnglo SaxonGenetically Modified Author:F.

“In the anarchist milieu, communism, individualism, collectivism, mutualism and all the intermediate and eclectic programmes are simply the ways considered best for achieving freedom and solidarity in economic life; the ways believed to correspond more closely with justice and freedom for the distribution of the means of production and the products of labour among men. Bakunin was an anarchist, and he was a collectivist, an outspoken enemy of communism because he saw in it the negation of freedom and, therefore, of human dignity.” MenWayHumansMeanJusticeEnemySawsEconomicAchieveProductsDignityProductionsCommunismLabourIndividualismSolidarityDistributionAnarchismAnarchistProgrammesCollectivismHuman DignityEclecticNegationOutspokenMilieu Book:Life and Ideas: The Anarchist Writings of Errico Malatesta Source: Life and Ideas: The Anarchist Writings of Errico Malatesta
“On coming to the house, they (the Magi), saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. (Matthew 2:11) [This] adoration, too, was not the same as the worship of God. In my opinion they did not yet recognize him as God, but they acted in keeping with the custom mentioned in Scripture, according to which Kings and important people were worshiped; this did not mean more than falling down before them at their feet and honoring them.” PeopleMeanChildrenImportantMotherFallHouseOpinionSawsFeetKingsWorshipDown AndScriptureCustomsMaryFalling DownAdorationMatthewMother Mary Author:Martin Luther
