No to sprinkling (of any kind). Justin will call them cheats.

One is not exclusive of the other. Can you explain where you see the problem here? Does supporting local businesses mean we can't recruit new ones? New businesses come in and support local businesses through their purchases. This is how an integrated economy is supposed to work.

Canadians are just to nice. People just push us around.

Let's just sign ownership of our natural gas to dictators of a communist regime controlling china. We can also give them control of our land, fish, timber, water, minerals, scrap metal, intellectual property,and our culture. It's all on the auction block and its cheap. We just want a deal now anything you don't even have to pay us, just say your interested please, please anything, anything please. We will give it to you please just say you want it. You can have anything you want if you will just validate a few over paid bureaucrats. Don't worry about the money, just agree to take it from us and you can have it. Use it as you want you can use it to bargain other suppliers down on their prices so you can further devalue the already give away prices. Please we come to you we beg you please elections are coming we need a deal, no money you can have it please please we have actually always liked communism. In fact we are fast growing socialism and our goal for our country is Communism.

mary and joesph didnt become the parents of jesus. get your bible right Z. man.

He was convicted of lying under oath to a Federal Judge about workplace sexual misconduct with an intern. He signed the law that he broke. Irony. It was a victory for women’s rights in the workplace. You should be celebrating instead of calling working women liars.

I disagree. While I think liberals are more likely to be atheists than conservatives, most liberals are people of faith, and I think atheist Republicans are common than you think.

Are you trying to equate funds received from the gun lobby with funds received from the gun control lobby? On the one side, we have groups that encourage the proliferation of a product whose primary purpose is to kill people and are being used more and more often. On the other side, we have groups that wants to set some limits on that proliferation so that people, when feeling small or insecure or angry, can't just reach for the gun to waste their feelings on innocent bystanders. You see a moral equivalence between the two?

No, your response is what's pathetic. I have two children in this school who are now fluent in Mandarin. Someday they'll have job opportunities that millions of their peers will not. Starting so young, it has helped with their brain development. They have also learned to respect and understand other cultures, which obviously you have not.

I think you dont know what "smear" means. Its only a smear if its not true. Every line of evidence indicates that Anita Hill's story was true.

If UA students want UA NCAA athletics they have to pay for it. Clearly the students are willing to pay extra to have $10 million in NCAA athletics every year or we would hear differently. I've never heard UA students in mass say they are willing to give up UA NCAA athletics in exchange for keep tuition low. Have you?

Yes Steven and Cupich is right about the materialism of libertarianism. It is a force in our communities that turns mammon into God...

So what this article is saying is the Trudeau Liberals are hypocrites. Who would have thought?

Well, this young fellow has not learnt. For Trump, loyalty ONLY goes one way - from the subordinate to Trump. The only person Trump is loyal to is himself. Ask Jeff Sessions.

The more someone shouts and rants about how pious they are, the more likely it is they are a pedophile or some other kind of monster. Moore is a pedophile.

This is exactly what people should expect when they hire a completely unqualified drama teacher as Prime minister!

Dogbert: I would suggest that many educators, including administrators, misconstrue the concept of "mainstreaming". To be sure, the idea of "least restrictive appropriate educational environment" is sound. However, that does NOT mean the disruptive students should simply be "tolerated". A repeatedly disruptive student, especially one who presents a danger to other students, staff or him/herself needs to receive appropriate intervention and "treatment." IEPs, etc are likely in order and special plans and procedures for addressing such disruptions need to be in place to facilitate timely intervention. Failure to have those plans and take those measures is damaging to all students.....the others in the classroom and, especially, the student who is acting out. Gary Crum

Yeah, god forbid your children learn a skill that will nearly guarantee a good job some day.

The reality of this practice dates back to the 40's my friend. There are congressional hearings on the topic from over 70 years ago. There wasn't internet back then. Reality is reality. You can either accept it or not. I have been filming and researching this for many years. I'm just trying to inform folks about the situation we are facing as a whole. That includes you.

Wait, I thought that the liberal left was against the death penalty...I mean for criminals, not for innocent unborn babies. It just gets so hard to keep track of their deeply held values. Maybe they can put out a privilege/punishment chart chart or something? Oh yeah, their followers just chant slogans and don't care about logic, reason or truth. Democrats.

Quietly give Granny some money to pay her bills, leave dad out of it.

The only question that should be asked is why the heck are we still blowing millions on an economically unviable gas line project? It will never break even.

Okay everyone hold the phone. I have a solution to this. The Chinese build the CPR from the lower mainland and through some of the roughest terrain on the planet. They helped tie the country together and we will always owe them a debt of gratitude. So how about our Syrians? From what I understand 90% are still on the dole - well up to Gilam and an equal number to Chruchill to start, just like they build the CPR, and meet in the middle. That would pay their debt to Canada and it would elevate their status immensely. Provide lodgings, food and minimum wages.

Here's my explanation. Once you make pot available at the corner drug store--which, incidentally, still can't sell booze--you make it socially acceptable. Not "prevalent" or even "allowable" but ACCEPTABLE. There are millions of Canadians who don't indulge today because pot still carries a stigma, even fear. You erase the stigma and fear through legalization and watch the market INCREASE. Why do you think Shoppers wants in? Yeah, sure, it's "medicinal." So was the booze pharmacies once sold with a doctor's prescription. Pardon my scepticism. Pot on the roads today? Sure. But nothing like it'll likely be once it's legal and the stigma is gone. "Must be safe...It's legal, right?" "Also, would you start taking heroin if it was legalized tomorrow? No? Nor would most, I suspect." You're right. I wouldn't. That's for sure. Most? Maybe not. But more and more people likely would. No-risk, legally, right? No law-and-order consequences. So, you're OK legalizing this. No? Howcum?

Its important to remember that for every victim that comes forward with their story, there are always several more who were to afraid or humiliated to come forward.

Cleaner water and less flooding, too.

No thanks, Amazon. If one thin dime of taxpayer money goes to them, that's corporate welfare. That's just plain wrong. Period.

"Most families"? Last estimates I can find show less than 4.7% of the population think they are LGBT (Gallup as reported by The Advocate). So. Most families????

Don't sugar-coat it. Tell us what you really think.

"Faithful Catholic" is a misogynistic zealot We need to MUTE him--. He shouldn't get to hijack every article about his abortion obsession.

is that a rocket in your pocket, big boy, or are ya just glad to see me...

Macron, Blair and SOROS! Time for this Guy's Pheasantbridge prostate exam. Whoooweee!

I,d hate to think that any of this slipped Leo Kolber,s mind while he was the head of the senate banking committee,most bagmen have terrific memories when it comes to money.

One of my friends in Shanghai grew up on a dirt floor house in western China, now he drives an Audi. When I 1st met him, he was about 30 and was just learning to drive. We had some good times roaring around Europe on the autobhan in company cars together, like all good country boys he can EAT. Watching him wolf down German pork knuckle in Bonn while drinking delicious german BEER, life doesn't suck. I was 'the' driver in those days, and loved it. 1st time we ripped out of Kassel Germany together I immediately got a speeding ticket (camera cop) getting onto the autobhan while Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA was blaring. The pic is hilarious, we were both fist pumping and about to drive 1800 kilometers in 2 days. I find that really remarkable, in one generation such a dramatic shift in quality of life in a place like China, dirt floors to high rises and Audis. Most modern day Americans have totally lost touch with that aspect of modernization.

"Another One Bites the Dust", Break out the champagne Hawaiian Airlines and Hawaii Demonrat Politicians with Preferred Stocks of Hawaiian Airlines. Not "Failed", attacked and destroyed by Hawaiian Airlines and their Bought and Paid For Hawaii Demonrat Politicians. Just like the Hawaii Demonrat Politicians that Destroyed Hawaii Energy Independence because they had Stocks of Hawaiian Electric Corporation and or Exxon Mobil of California. Demonrats don't know much, Spend Money they don't have, the example Demonrats Rail. $Billionaire Ellison dumped his Interests in Island Air on Local Investors (Combined Investment Money $Millions). Then Island Air Leases Canadian Q400s, instead of keeping the ATRs that they owned, putting Island Air into Debt when they no longer had the Financial Backing of $Billionaire Ellison. Now Hawaiian Airlines can buy the former Island Air Routes Cheap, used Q400s cheap. See that "Golden Parachute" that was Island Airlines CEO bailing out of the Q400.

Add a gun and chances of fatal injury increse. The canard about a well-armed society being a polite society is myth. https://fabiusmaximus.com/2017/09/09/an-armed-society-is-a-polite-society-a-myth-of-the-right/

I was referring to Bill's reaction to the STORY, not raising the issue of guilt or proof. The statute of limitations on any charges of pedophilia has run out anyhow. Moore will be neither exonerated nor found guilty, poor thing. Probably, the only way this will be cleared up is with a civil suit involving the principals, Moore and his accuser. The reason I tend to believe rape accusations is because I know that no woman subjects herself to the slander and character assassination she'll experience accusing a man of rape unless the assault really happened. Statistics suggest that out of every 1000 actual rapes fewer than a third are reported and fewer than 1% of rapists will see prison time. Women know this is how the criminal justice system works. That's what patriarchy looks like.

Didn't you read the initiative? It also says they have the option of installing solar.

People should remember who and what lawyers are. Then they wouldn't be so surprised by the Ontario Law society demand here.

Go Bows!

I tend to agree. I've found that if you follow politics, you'll be astonished at just how poor this government is performing on almost every file it touches. We're a very liberal country that indoctrinates through education and media, coupled with a generation that has completely tuned out of current affairs beyond the distraction of pop culture pap. Justin is riding a wave of disengagement beyond social justice causes.

He did not see the sign on the door. NO murderers allowed.

Agree with the premise of the article. What I find troubling is reading 'oughtta' in a newspaper. It is not a word, yet appears three times in this article! That's sloppy journalism--where is the public editor?

Being a citizen of the country as required to vote, is not voter suppression. It's a requirement in Canada too, are we suppressing votes? No. Requiring Identification to vote, is not a form of voter suppression. It's a requirement in Canada too, are we suppressing votes? No, we aren't. Canadian liberals need to realize that what the populists in the US are demanding are exactly the same laws we have in Canada. Secure border and a legal process for immigration, voting requirements and laws.... Canadian Liberals I think pray for the demise of the USA.

I am not the spin master-wasn't my post that was 'spun'. You answered the wrong commentor.

So you are not a "live and let live" kind of guy ? I love hypocrisy, you are free to define your own terms Will, within your sphere of influence of course. Being a child of that generation , I find the 60's counter cultural mantra repulsive, but that is just my opinion, (again) of course.

My guns haven't killed a single person. They have killed lots of paper targets, tin cans and provided freezers of meat for the winter. tell us again that guns are only for killing people

Check out the federal judge the CONS just seated in Alabama, rated unqualified unanimously by the bar association, never tried a case, boldly partisan and so approved to a lifetime federal judge seat along party lines. Dangerous lying hypocrites. Be aware, be afraid be concerned

"Reported" by who? What "document"? Why are you talking about Martin Luther King? Did Moore try to get in his pants, too? What is your point? Are you saying that its OK for Moore to be a pedophile if Martin Luther King got it on with a bunch of women? The statues argument is the most baffling to me. Taking down statues of confederate traitors because they literally celebrate racism and slavery is not equivalent to taking down statues of a man who championed tolerance and equality. Even if your fantasy story is true about King, its not relevant to his achievements. The confederate traitors' statues are literally trying to rewrite history. Basically, you are a racist who thinks that if a black guy does something bad, that makes it OK for Roy Moore to be a pedophile.

Aside from Laura Bush with her graceful ways and possibly Jackie Kennedys graceful nature .........Melania Trump is the most graceful, intelligent , definitely the most beautiful and NICEST and least divisive first lady that the U.S. has had in a long long time.

Take some time and get informed on the issue. It's not some kind of delusional allegation I'm making here sir. It's called reality. Like it or not you live here too. Better learn to step up and face the facts. You won't be able to deny what is happening much longer. This is a link detailing how congress just met about proposals to do what I am telling you is happening already. Inform yourself sir. http://thefreethoughtproject.com/geoengineering-goes-mainstream-as-congress-holds-hearing-on-weather-manipulation-tech/

It's so, well, hard to find a good codpiece these days.

I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires. - Susan B. Anthony

I’m sure your right, the mighty Governor of AK got Trump and Xi to go along with this so that he could get re-elected in the all important State of Alaska elections. (Sarcasm)

"The 11 Trans-Pacific Partnership countries have reached an agreement on "core elements" of the trade pact, namely that all countries will adhere to strict labour and environment standards, a development Canada is championing as a major breakthrough after talks broke down earlier Friday. The original TPP, which is currently under renegotiation after U.S. President Donald Trump pulled America out of the deal, included strong provisions that demanded all member countries eliminate child and forced labour, adopt and maintain laws and practices governing "acceptable conditions of work," and uphold the right to collective bargaining. But some countries, including Malaysia and Vietnam, sought to opt out of such provisions during the talks, something Canada felt was untenable." Liberal government officials refuted international reports — notably from Australian and New Zealand news outlets — that suggested Canada alone was to blame for delayed TPP talks. ...negotiations will continue!...

Alaskans First; hire, businesses and its people along with the profits it deserves

It's a factually incorrect statement. Britain didn't join the European Union in 1973, it joined the European Economic Community. The EU evolved out of the EEC. It's the EU that changed, not the British reasons to join the EEC.

If you own a home with a market value of $500,000 or more, you are well off. Required annual income is $108,575 to obtain a $500,000 mortgage at a 4.5% rate. Reality Check - Currently, a little less than a third (29%) of all U.S. homes are valuable enough to make taking the Mortgage Interest Deduction worthwhile; under the proposed tax changes, that number would fall to just 5% percent. If you've already got a mortgage, things won't change. You can still deduct the interest you pay on mortgages up to $1 million.

Congratulations dude, excellent!

Hewing closely to the leftist tendency to propose solutions that have nothing to do with the problem, Nick suggests three as the maximum number of firearms one may possess while clearly referencing the recent Texas church shooting. A shooting wherein the perp, according to media reports, used exactly one firearm. Why three? Where is the evidence (or logic) that declares the fourth gun possessed as the magic talisman that establishes, without a doubt, the existence of mental illness in the possessor? I say without a doubt, because in Nick's world this would be reason to remove a constitutionally enumerated right. The left argues with hype, hysteria, and emotion. The right (mostly) argues with facts, logic, and reason.

I don't often agree with Life of the Lay, but this time I have to agree. When did 'popularity' become a job-description for being the leader of the Roman Catholic Church worldwide? Heck, even the word 'popular' does not properly describe what is expected of Popes these days. Instead, it seems that 'successful' Popes must have 'rock star' qualities in regard to the size of the crowds they attract (invariably described as a million or more fawning / fainting individuals raising up their babies or doing their best to take a 'selfie' with the Pope. But in fairness, the requirement for 'rock star' status didn't begin with Pope Francis -- it began with Pope John Paul II. Yes, I will admit that at first it was exciting to have a Pope visiting in the Catholic people in their home countries. I, myself went down to Grant Park in Chicago in October 1979 to see JPII in person. But enough of Papal visits already -- what counts are the teachings, not how many autographs he can sign!

Get ready for massive evacuation of ungrateful Lebanese dual citizens part 2.

The German coal you speak of J. Bob is made of peat moss and does not destroy the environment. So please get your facts straight before making such outlandish accusations. Germany is leading the world in finding clean energy technology and people who "bare false witness" should be ashamed... No doubt the technology to clean the environment that Germany is pioneering will be used by others in the future as it is cheaper than the dirty black coal that our current government proposes.

You have to admit it's pretty funny. Good parody is priceless.

When it comes to RTD, it's Denver that's heavily subsidized while the suburbs get screwed. Especially with rail. The vast majority of light rail rides start and/or end in Denver (usually downtown or DIA). The suburbs don't even come remotely close to that degree of service, but yet the suburbs pay 77% of the taxes that fund RTD. The tax really ought to be 2x or 3x bigger in the city of Denver and less in the suburbs. Who doen't want a walkable neighborhood? The problem is it often conflicts with so many other things people also want, like less crowding, more open space, yards, big houses, quiet neighborhoods, low crime, safe places for their kids to play, etc. The small town life in a small space works fine when you have 1000 people. But small town life for 3-5 million people requires a helluva lot more space. Which is why suburbs and xburbs exist.

Ah, poor benighted Alabama. We can only hope that there are enough sensible people there to elect Doug Jones as their next US senator. They would disgrace themselves by elevating the hypocritical degenerate Roy Moore to that position.

You don't have a clue. Nice urban myth.

hope the officials do not go after saint louis with bad calls for cal's honest support of york.

DT can be maddening when he drops a pass, misses a block or isn't on the same page as the QB but all in all, he is a very good WR who has also made some amazing plays. No player is perfect, even the greatest of greats. The only downside I find with him is his salary, if it were more in line with say, Sanders $$, then I'd think he'd be a more valued asset to the Bronco's team and fans. With his $$ the way it is, he may need to restructure his contract or possibly end his career somewhere else. I also think if the Broncos got a real slot receiver or a producing TE threat, DT's number would go back up to like they were when we had Welker or Stokley.

GBA: I have pledged to simply ignore your trolling comments. However, let me make an exception on this one. First, none of my comments, letters or OpEd pieces are required reading and there will not be a test. You can read them and agree with my views, read them and disagree, not read them at all or, as you most often do, simply make a snarky comment as you do above. I spent my career working with disturbed kids. I care for their welfare and reading an article like this one really "hits home" for me. I do have experience, I do have knowledge and I do have ideas which I feel could be helpful. I will share them with those who might be interested....again, they are not "required reading." You may, of course, continue to make your nasty little comments.....that's your business. However, IMO, whether directed toward me or some other poster, I think they reflect far more badly on you than anyone else. Like those disturbed kids, you need help. best wishes, Gary Crum

this woman is incredible! her accomplishments in Port Angeles are so selfless and enduring! carry on, Betsy...you rock!!

This is a classic example of damage caused by "fake" news. Media reports a story (that eventually is proven false).........damage done. After evidence comes out.........same media makes little effort to correct. At the end of the day..........majority never learns that story was "fake" (false) and ............damage remains. Same thing with Ferguson..........hands-up, don't shoot". Vast majority of public still believes that Ferguson shooter was on his knees with his hands up. Not true. Bet if you poll the public, a majority still believe that he was on his knees and had his hands up. MSM's way of operating is to publish stories that fit their agenda...........after story proven to be false.............make little effort to correct. Works every time.

no it is called balance and she definitely is not a balanced journalist, actually borders on yellow journalism. As for the cost of an AR-15 they are more expensive than most other guns. The cost alone deters people buying one. Far far more people are killed with handguns which are cheaper, easier to conceal and more readily available. but the facts never get in the way of a good story

Hey, Star Advertiser, How about creating a List of the Hawaii Politicians past and current, and the Stocks that they own (or placed in Families Name or Relatives Name), Corporate Boards that they sit on or have sat on, also Campaign Contributors, and whatever was given to them "Free" from Businesses, Companies, Corporations, like all expenses paid Vacations, Cars, and much more. A complete list of All Businesses, Companies, Corporations that have Failed at Hawaii would be nice also, to give everybody a complete picture, when compared to the list of Hawaii Politicians "Special Interests" as "Conflicts of Interest"

... BTW ... I'm at your services for any supply chain/purchasing needs you might have ;)

I wonder these "representatives" in Juneau realize that if they had spent all the money they have BLOWN on this ridiculous gas line project, that a third grader could find uneconomical, on a railroad to Nome from Fairbanks, the state would have diversified economy and the west coast of Alaska would be booming.

A wonderful story lovingly told. While working on my family tree I often imagine what my ancestors - going back hundreds of years in some cases - might have experienced as children, how they got together with their spouse(s), what joys and tragedies they had, the sunrises and sunsets they witnessed. I hope you do find Dody's family, please let us know if you do.

"Too big for his britches" is racist? Not in my books. I would suggest Mr Mason you are sounding like you are "Wearing a 10 Gallon Hat on a 2 Pint Head"

Not an unusual story, sad to say. Worked with palliative care groups during the AIDS epidemic. Many, many young men died alone- disowned by their families.

Since I had mastered the 8th grade long before school started, alternative education made me a teachers aide for students, grade 1-6, with severe learning disabilities. I didn't go to school. I was free child slave labor of Oregon public schools. Today my step-daughter runs one of these classrooms.My how the times have seriously changed since then. As a child in AE with a 148 IQ, had I remotely behaved like this, not only would I have been permanently expelled from this school district(hell, I was threatened with expulsion just for asking questions)but the cops would have been called, I'm getting arrested for assaulting a teacher/student, and going to JDH for a time out. Today, if your child has emotional problems, and gets the right label slapped on them, they can act like this and if you do anything, the parent will sue, and the courts will side in their favor. It is surreal of what is expected of my step-daughter, that wouldn't have been remotely tolerated in 1976.

The pharmaceutical industry and complicit doctors might be the single greatest threat to this country. Not only the side effects and overdoses, the pharmacy costs are the number one cause of rising healthcare costs.

Common sense isn't that common anymore. It's much easier (and better press) to make a law, than to blame people for their own stupidity.

You people are worrying about the wrong thing. First of all I am a black man. I am not an uncle Tom or a coon. You actually might say I am ultra militant. But for you to raise this hot button issue in polarizing times like this only serves to drive a wedge between those who might be like minded and supportive of your core causes. Who gives a shit about the anthem? They can have it, after all we have ours. This old woman should not have any say in running the organization if that is what her leadership is about. Don't stand for it it if that is your preference. But don't take it away from those who want to. And there are many blacks that want to. Danny Davis is a fool to bring this nonsense to capitol hill. He is like Al Green of Texas and is a nobody in the congress. All he is doing is attempting to raise his profile. And this old woman who is president is trying to make herself relevant. Do this sit down and STFU and try to help us reclaim the Congress. This only hurts.

Helping them to not need the shelter, to address why the need for the shelters.

Here we go Again. They are not Alaskans, but bring these policies from such places as Colorado and try and force them on the people of Alaska. An example of their ignorance; they explained it would be a simple process of obtaining these online permits. A lot of people who don't have or cannot afford internet access in Alaska. When this issue was raised in the papers last year the news agencies and the foundation failed to come clean and say exactly what there proposal would include. Instead they led the public to believe it would be a simple matter of registering sheep and goats. They failed to include the details hoping it would slide through without notice.The details came out later. The state admitted fish and game has no legal authority to regulate livestock. This should be the end of the story. Instead the state pretended they could hold this over our heads. If the foundation can make this farmers vs. wildlife they can sway the public. Not one goat owner I know is a farmer.

Love Thomas' mindset "I haven't proven anything yet", "I have a team to lead" and "I’d rather this year be the thing people remember me by.”

It just shows how loathsome and craven Republicans are to hang onto their power. Not that their power has done anything for them. The only legislation signed and has been to rename federal buildings and post offices. The administration is a failed, hot mess. And now, they're supporting and cheering on a pedophile. Good grief.

The whiners are so pathetic. Most of them do not even live in Denver. Because they HATE city life. Or so they proudly tell us. I love the life in Denver and that is why I live there. This is a good investment in a GREAT city!

True enough perhaps...but the same can be said of Democrats who stoked Anger by promoting class, gender, and race warfare. Yes. Both parties have to knock it off.

Seriously, how can anyone talk about a life and death issue, have your opinion register, and be accorded any respect, while wearing clown socks?

Not showing up - if indeed that is what happened, is rarely good. But on the bright side at least he didn't lock himself in the bathroom as Harper did in Brazil. Now that was professional and a great job according to those who howl at the moon hoping for change. https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/blogpost/post/stephen-harper-locks-himself-in-brazilian-ministers-bathroom-until-he-gets-his-way/2011/08/09/gIQAjzr84I_blog.html?utm_term=.a004a8a91fe0

www.newcoldwar.org November 9, 2017 More drumbeat for Western military intervention into Ukraine under the guise of 'peacekeeping' By Roger Annis https://www.newcoldwar.org/drumbeat-western-military-intervention-ukraine-guise-peacekeeping/

Justin has already interfered with the CRA investigation into this matter with his public statement that Bronfman didn't do anything untoward. How can we now expect an impartial investigation, when the minister of national revenue, again refuses to answer even the simplest of questions posed to her during QP, and her boss already cleared Bronfmans name before the investigation was concluded...or even started? Canada has become a banana republic under this ridiculous "leadership".

Trudeau says he won't be rushed into a deal. If that's the case, we need to hear a bit more about what the impediments are. Why isn't the Press asking him about that? It's a rather obvious question.

Good grief, what a frightened little puppy you are, Rebecca Logan. Just hide under your bed if you're so scared and leave the rest of us alone.

He's not. Just 2000 years behind the times.

You're right, but these comments show how clueless Trump sycophants are. WOW!

Get to the point, Bill. Are you saying that because parallax methods, measuring redshifts, and using stellar candles such as supernova are not 100% accurate that therefore they are not "best guesses" as to distances within the cosmos? You think that the physics of the earth and the moon and the sun stop applying when we get to distances such as 150,000 light years (the milky way), or the 2.5 million light years towards Andromeda? Do you not believe that galaxies exist? You're not staying hard and fast to any claim. I claim "the best guess we have based on all the observable evidence points towards a very large and very old universe". Then as as soon as we point towards the likeliness of that it immediately turns into "we can't know everything, up could be down, you don't know there is no god, science is a lie!" Trying to debunk arguments that I'm not even making. You just think that you're right and I'm wrong, so if I start making any sense you divert to keep that narrative going.

Isn’t the relevant quote “whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”? Where did you get the extra clauses? Why did you accept them?
