Pretty sure Jesus said, “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s,” and told slaves to obey their masters in the same breath.

Not exactly ringing endorsement of civil rights. Jesus was more concerned about the kingdom of God than the kingdoms of this world.

And yay! Another religious post on the Poli Board!

Go back and look at Bama from 2001-2007 and tell me the coach doesn’t matter again.

On the other side of the Andes, check out Valparaiso, Chile. Then head south to hit up some of the national parks and Alpine views.

Add their staff to the bill, too. Things will get real nasty when those senatorial and congressional aides aren’t getting paid.

Well, since Obergfell was based in part on Loving, should that be overturned, too?

A SCOTUS ruling on this would not overturn Obergfell; it would either allow some judges to refuse, but others wouldn’t.

NFL Scheduling is dumb

Posted by bluestem75 on 10/26/25 at 1:28 pm

Giants and Eagles playing for the second time in three weeks.

What’s the point of playing a team twice per year if the schedule pits them twice during the same point of the season? Thats practically back to back.

re: Cruise line reccomendations?

Posted by bluestem75 on 10/20/25 at 12:28 pm to jcolding41

There’s been a ton of fights on Royal lately too.

I suggest doing your research. Not every line is for everybody. Not every ship in a particular line is for everybody. Picking the right line, ship, & itinerary is key to having a good cruise.

YouTube channels I like:
Cruise with Ben & David
Life Well Cruised
Cruzely
Popular Cruising
La Lido Loca
JimZim

Check out Cruise Critic website

re: DFW Trip - American Girl Store - Christmas Time

Posted by bluestem75 on 10/15/25 at 7:15 pm to midlothianlsu

All three of these are close to Northpark and The American Doll Store. Nothing super fancy or exciting, but close.

Hyatt House Lincoln Park

Doubletree Campbell Centre

Hilton Park Cities

The Gaylord Texan is awesome at Christmas time and sits on Lake Grapevine. It will be pricey. Right by D/FW. 30-45 minute drive to AG Store depending on traffic.

1- Good job on picking Princess. They’re one of the best at Alaska cruises.

2- Definitely stay at their Denali lodge. It’s a very unique experience no other line offers.
