Two wrongs do not make a right: Bullets


Facebook
• Watching and listening to the news from the United States, an idea that stays in my head is what I was taught as a child: 'Two wrongs do not make a right'. Of course, that can develop into: 'Three wrongs do not make a right', etcetera.

• In general, I suppose it can be assumed and deduced that the United States is more associated with racism than Canada, historically. But there have been at least several documented incidents within the Metropolitan Vancouver region of racism against Asians and/or perceived Asians this pandemic. 

• Not to read like an academic snob or intellectual elitist, but in my humble opinion, this is a reason why (not the only reason) a national government withholds certain intelligence information from the public.

 • There are certain persons in western society that do not intellectually separate the supposed acts of a government (s) from the ethnic group (s) associated with that national government. Many Asian persons in this region are not from the People's Republic of China and are not communists, or are even sympathizers, yet some ignorant, closed-minded people, in this region, and in each western society will not make the distinction, and therefore, racist, ethnic persecution can occur.

• Galatians 3: 28: English Standard Version 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

• 1 Corinthians 12: 12-13 English Standard Version 12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves[d] or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. d 1 Corinthians 12:13 For the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface

Special Report: From The Flat Earth Society

Suggestion

Take a professionally guided boat ride in any ocean. Pay your guide (s) so that you keep sailing until you 'go over the edge' or arrive back at the original location. Of course, if the boat would eventually 'go over the edge', the professional guide (s) should refuse the trip. As should any guide (s) in the know.

This can provide one with personal, empirical proof. I know the result, based on reason, but if I state it, it will not be personally, empirical for someone that holds to the flat earth theory.

After all, I could still possibly be part of a conspiracy, even though I am not. 

This is my first post with the new Blogger template.

Well-done, friend, I do look like...


A good friend just emailed me to inform me that I look like this actor in an "Oh Henry!' 'Bite Sized', commercial, that as of yet I have not personally seen.

I agree with my friend there is a resemblance with the hair (pre-pandemic as my hair has since gone 'Frankennuts'). I agree with the glasses being similar to mine.

I will add that this actor's jawline looks similar to mine.

Physical differences include that I am older, and the fact that with my muscle build-up and age, I have not recorded a similar weight to that actor since I lived in England. I always scale down when I am there for a while. I think it is a difference in the food, even with my very low carbohydrate diet, and the fact I am walking much here in British Columbia, I am still not as light as I was in England.
My weight is higher before England, goes down, and then goes up again in 'Oh Canada'.

I also dress in more solid colours.

I also do not share his 'deer in the headlights' facial expression.
