Matthew 25. If you need a sign. Just that. No other words.

Bible verse about feeding hungry etc.

Take it to the Christians. They’ll know.

‘Matthew 25’ also looks good on tshirts and bumper stickers.

I have worked with them in the past on pro-choice issues. I'm sure they are good on other church/state issues too.

When you try, they'll have an out clause: They're saving the country so they can do whatever is necessary. Trump told them so.

I spent 2 weeks on a cruise around NZ recently and spent some time talking to a couple who lives near me. They love their Tesla's and think TSF is doing a fantastic job. I reminded them of Jesus's teaching in the second half of Matthew 25. How repulsed I am that the world's richest man is taking food away from the world's poorest people. For the rest of the cruise I watched them purposely avoid me.

in the conversation at the local pizza place.

The other couple couldn’t abandoned their pie and run away.

He kept chatting in his calm Jesuit trained voice. They kept listening.

You never know what will touch a nerve.

We all do our bit.
