Gbill7, thanks for the restack, and thanks to everyone else as well, I've been quite busy with the end of girl's basketball season, among other things, my apologies for the tardiness or absence of thanks.

Yes I know, as much as I dislike the heat, winter is a bummer, even down here in Georgia where we typically don’t have to wait but a couple of hours at most before going anywhere, and that is the rare Ice Storm (or snow).

Right now, it's 19 degrees F in my part of Texas, so much for global warming.

I was born in the midst of the Great Depression in 1934 and there was no food for years...Somehow we survived....was it manna, prana, or chi? The wrong food is deadly...and people are stockpiling food, which has a shelf life of years. However, it has no life force in it! I would rather go without, than create illness eating 'garbage.' Garbage is dead food, which stresses the body trying to digest it. I have read thousands of books over the years and one of the best is Deadly Grains by James Braly, M.D. and Ron Hoggan, M.A. ...200 diseases are caused by eating grains. Then, there is The China Study by T. Colin Campbell, which followed a massive number of Chinese for over ten years. areas eating higher amounts of protein had more cancer and heart disease than plant based areas. The 80-10-10 Diet has great food info with it's recommendations: 80% carbs...10% protein and 10% fat. Quality Longevity is one of the most definitive books on the subject of nutrition...which actually gives information on most edible foods humans eat. I have read many "Best Sellers' written by doctors giving nutrition advice, which came directly from the Processed Food Industry. (lucky to be 15% - 20% valid).

Like a wet dog, earth is shaking, and may throw us human fleas off into the ether.

I bet Popes, Bishops, Priests, Clergy, Religious and tribal leaders can't wait. God's cooming back to destroy the wicked world and has prepared just one family to repopulate the Earth post volcanic total destruction...Or, as you say...another natural shift.

"Natural shift" is not something I ever say (did I?), but God (Jesus) is bringing the HEAT, fire fire fire, all on the Earth's human enemies (Satan & his minions which includes many evil humans and trandimensinal creatures).

I'm not with you on this one Edwin. This God has proved himself to be nothing more than a genocidal maniac greater than history's worst. I can't remember hearing that this satan bloke ever murdered so many civilizations.

As for evil humans all the religious zealots I've mentioned stand up every Friday, Saturday or Sunday and claim a direct line to this God bloke. They're all liars and yet this God who has the ability to part water, turn people to salt, send disease and pestilence on a whim, and turn a President's head, can't be bothered to dethrone them, or save other Christians from bullets, volcanoes, paedophilia or slavery. Either this satan bloke is winning, God ain't listening or it doesn't exist. 2020/22 certainly showed it doesn't vote.

So you expect him to come down and fix your flat, or better yet prevent it in the first place. You should have known better than to be running those 18 year old BFGs you stashed away when you bought the car, GOD: “I gave you a brain, use it!”

Whatever, you want to blame GOD, blame him, it don’t matter to me, shame to not have you along for eternity, though.

Edwin, I don't blame this God that the whole ethos of my comment because a God doesn't exist. Me, you, all Christians make decisions every day. Some are good, some bad and some evil. Most of the evil ones come from Christian and religious leaders who are followed by millions. No eternity for me and so far 75 very interesting years...good and bad...no evil.

I feel truly lost for you, but there is still hope, hope that you’ll see the light!

For what it is worth, my discussions with you a very fruitful, please keep them up, don’t discount me because I am a believer.

Remember James Bond Stockdale, & the “Paradox.”

There is no lost Edwin. I am loving my life and fighting, that's the important event of my years. When the time comes I will drift into the ether, my body will be eaten by the creatures of the Earth and my soul will wake in Valhalla

If climates were warming, I’d take that any day over climate cooling and volcanic winter. 😩

Its a no-brainer. Hey, we have good cheap (Ollie’s) AC down here.

Oh heck. What's a little volcanic winter with everything else that's happening around the planet? Beside, everybody is already prepped, just in case. Right?
