We Soldier On

Editor:
You got that right when you wrote: “We soldier on”.
From where I sit everyone else is also; last week the Jehovah’s Witnesses left me their Watchtower, No. 1, 2018.
I sent my Jan. 1/18 to quite a few, and it was nice of Dialogue magazine to print my November 26/17 in their latest issue.
Of course, so does Donald Trump but, unfortunately, the Republican Party’s Trinitarian Christian Right does too: they have to be grateful to him for he kept them in the spotlight by winning over those liberalist Democrats. And now he says he’d beat Oprah Winfrey if she represents them. He may live to eat those words just as his man in Alabama, Roy Moore was surprised by a Democrat.

Naturally, Pope Francis, Israel’s Netanyahu, and the Muslim supporters of the Palestinians keep at it.
The Eastern religions and Atheists are not backing down from anyone.
As I repeat constantly, belief systems will always speculate, til the end of spacetime, when gobbled up in an immense black hole. But please, please, keep it all out of politics.
