Yeah CV, that is historical fact.

Personally I had nothing to do with enslaving anyone. So I’m going to continue living my life aiming to treat all people with mutual respect as equal individuals.

Good grief Bob never gives it a break does he. He’s a regular race warrior.

I got the context lol

I’m saying put your money where your mouth is. If you are an avid supporter of all things renewably green, and if you are so starchily opposed to fossil fuel as you say, then why are you not driving an electric car? Or at the very least a small hybrid, ok I’ll even give you a 4 cylinder.

A climate alarmist that drives a V8. There’s a word for this.

All you need to evaluate students….. can they solve:

2x = (36-x) ?

That will tell you what you need to know.

I get the feeling there’s a few board members who couldn’t solve it themselves. What would we do without all this technology!? Oh wait that’s right people used to actually have to learn and remember things.

You are correct Bob;

Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

This is the first and great commandment.

And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

But also:
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.

For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

remember King Solomon:

king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites:

Of the nations concerning which the Lord said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.

And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.

For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.

Just because you can say things Bob, doesn’t mean you always should.

The BCS logo is a possession of Beaufort County Schools.

Beaufort County Schools is an education system funded by the taxpaying citizens of the county, who elect for themselves representatives to operate it.

The logo itself whether purchased by the school system or created in house, would appear to me to be public property.

I wouldn’t figure grown adults to behave so petty but I guess they do. Actually the more I think about it, the less it makes sense to me.

There are two scenarios for this situation:

#1. Cheeseman is more ridiculous then we already knew and as opposition is growing, he is exposing himself as not really having any concern for his duty or the education of children. As if he doesn’t have a thousand more important responsibilities that should require his focus. He is getting whispers in the ear from seedy lawyers with agendas that have nothing to do with the well being of our county. If this is what we can come to expect from that dynamic duo, then the show is just beginning.

#2 Stacy Davis is running as a conservative while claiming to embrace techno-globalization. Isn’t that an oxymoron? Could this be a staged feud between herself and the superintendent? So that to the voter, they may seem at odds, in order to garner more support from conservatives. If so, top notch double agent marketing scheme. I only say this because the grievance is so bizarre, it can’t be for real.

(PS: I do not intend to make false accusations. Scenario #2 was described under the veil of sarcasm to make a point.)

Yeah, Bob has really gone off the deep end lately…

Is everything alright Bob? You seem unhinged. They say you should prioritize your mental health now a days. Maybe you should take a break from the electronics and do some self reflection. Get some R&R Biggums I’m worried about you.

They say the product you buy off Temu isn’t actually produced until you purchase it. This is how they can have a large variety of items for sale for so cheap. The cut all the costs of storing inventory.

I would love to see the climate cult get fired up over cheap throwaway goods. Not to mention all these lithium ion batteries in vapes and other items that are produced to be used and thrown away. There’s your real environmental pollution. Haha but what do I know, my documented education ended with high school.

I agree bhawk, the illegal migration into this country has to be stopped.

Now there can be solutions for these problems but, the government must find common ground to achieve anything, which we know is almost asking for a miracle at this point. Rather then getting angry about the occurring of events beyond our control, it is more profitable to think about these events as divine judgment. As it was written:

O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

O Lord, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:

And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.

Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;

Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.

The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:

And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.

And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.

Cheeseman has got to go.
#CutTheCheese

We need someone who can understand the fall of civilization occurring due to technology, not actively engaging in it.

In my opinion, no child under the age of 16 should have their own phone or computer. Lazy parents have created the brain rot generation that our schools are beginning to deal with. A lot of children cannot answer word problems simply because they have the attention span of a fly. If they are actually focused on something, it’s crap.

Bob I understand there are some people who seemingly worship Trump in a cult like fashion, this MAGA you refer to.

It is offensive however that you generalize everyone who would vote for him as this type of person. Many, including myself, do not really favor Trump as a person. There is a lot of evil about him, but we would vote for him because he appears to be for certain principles. Honestly though he may care less. He IS a con man. He profits from bankruptcies in his personal ventures and this is reflected on how he runs the country. I believe he could bankrupt the country but that is inevitable at this point. We know it will happen because we know of the world government in the last days.

In reality, there IS a lot about the Trump movement that is reminiscent of 1930’s Germany, and I can understand the concern of events going downhill.

All we can do is have faith in this:

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Not the Big Bob who valiantly heaved a row boat off a sand bar whilst under fire, but the one here, who tarnishes the name of the former by just being an absolute troll.

There have been climate cataclysms since the creation of Earth. We can understand this through the geological record found beneath our feet.

Not saying there isn’t some merit to the climate debate, but the reality is the issue has become political, because of those who use the issue to further an agenda or self interest.

Weather is never the same and always changing. People say the storms are worse than ever before. I’ve seen bad storms but I haven’t been alive long enough to judge that. I’m sure there have been worse storms none of us were alive to see.

Clean energy is fine if it’s done right. Pollution is bad and should be prevented to the best of our ability (which we already do). With this in mind we know the fact is, the world we live in has been industrialized, and unless we deindustrialize, to the detriment of every living person, carbon emissions will occur because they are the by-product of all things industry. Not to mention the byproduct of all things living.

Man himself is a carbon based life-form. To believe carbon is a pollutant, is to believe all life a pollution of the Earth.

It was written that the number of the name of the beast is 666. It is curious that on the periodic table of elements; Carbon holds the number 6. Meaning one carbon atom has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons.

I haven’t a clue what it means but it has been made to be so.
