Not born wealthy, but there was Ronald Read who lived a modest life resulting in a multimillion dollar estate when he passed in 2014. He left most of it to local library and hospital.

I had to check to make sure that this was not an old April Fools Day joke article.

While not a term maybe a short blurb like “While I am not religious, I admire many of the lessons of Jesus as portrayed in the Bible, and I try to model parts of my life after his example.”

If applicable you can also add “Along with others I consider to be positive examples for leading a good and virtuous life.”

Yes. Thanks for catching that.

There is a lot of good messaging in the Bible, the Quran, the Torah, etc. You don’t need to be religious to appreciate that. Just like how somebody who appreciates in the mission and words of The Amazing Randi does not need a special label.

The labels start to come into play when discussing your belief or disbelief in a god or gods.

Fair enough.

I personally see our options with Isreal as a no win scenario for the US people. With the “Peace to Prosperity” agreement Trump signed with Isreal without even inviting Palestine to the table, he pretty much announced that his view of peace in the area was the genocide we see happening now. Then Biden pretty much agreed with his military support. I was hoping that I had missed some 3rd party candidate proposing a alternative, but I guess not.

No need to apologize. You do what you think is best.

Is your intent to not vote or do you have a candidate that you believe will halt the military support of Isreal?

Do you think that Trump or the Republicans will halt military support to Isreal?

You also have not answered my question. Are you simply not voting because all politicians are just various degrees of evil and voting for any of them will be “accepting ‘the lesser of two evils’”?

I am genuinely interested in knowing the point of that statement. Is it to encourage people not to vote?

Are their any other topics that you apply this mentality to or is it just this election?

Edit: To answer your question, no, I do not support genocide. I do however believe in choosing the lesser of two evils when there are no better alternatives.

I don’t believe in accepting “the lesser of two evils”

I’ve been seeing this argument alot this electing cycle. Can you provide an example of a politician that has done committed or supported an action that could be considered “evil”?

Are they trying to hide behind a “I didn’t know what I was saying” defense while expecting people to trust and listen to what they say?

From the AP News article on the topic

One unidentified influencer’s contract included a $400,000 monthly fee, a $100,000 signing bonus and an additional performance bonus.

Such savage victimization. I’m sure that they returned all the money once they learned what it was for and where it came from.

Just gonna leave this here

If these answers are not provided, the claim then undergoes further review, which extends the time a winner must wait in order to receive their prize.

So the prize was delayed, not denied. Misleading headlines like this really make it difficult to trust the source.

Have you tried contacting them with questions about issues that concern you?

For those, like me, who had never heard of BRICS before this article.

BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. Originally identified to highlight investment opportunities,[1] the grouping evolved into a cohesive geopolitical bloc, with their governments meeting annually at formal summits and coordinating multilateral policies since 2009.

Panhandling is just asking for money. Every celebrity, politician, school, charity, church, library, little league sports team, etc I can think of has done that at one point or another. I have worked in office environments where people have come around looking for donations for this thing or that.

How are you defining panhandling and why would it be any different than other forms of soliciting for donations? Because it sounds like your question is about policing a group of people and not an action.

I’ve got my Plex server running on an Intel NUC 8 with 2 USB 2TB solid state drives serving as local storage for my media.

One method was the use of candle clocks.

I wonder if mRNA vaccine treatment for cancer is what they are referencing.

From what I was able to understand (and maybe somebody can correct anything I’ve gotten wrong), the “vaccine” is tailored on a per-individual basis to target key protein markers of a petients particular cancer. This allows the body to identify and start to attack the cancer where previously the immune system would not be able to tell the difference between healthy and cancerous cells.

Right!? They could have just as easily titled this article “White man who never served in the military complains about white men not serving in the military”

Incentives for joining the military target lower income communities.

The military is continually sent into one unpopular conflict after another since at least Vietnam (right around the time the report noticed a drop in white enlistment).

Legislators pass and / or preserve policies that create barriers preventing non-whites from accumulatimg wealth.

Hmmm … I wonder if there is a connection.
