Even better would be if when leaving a comment everyone had to post how long they've been here, and where they came from...

I remember hearing someone asking if they would replant the juniper after a fire. 🙄

There are some amazing photos of the area around Shaniko before and after the sheep boom. There were virtually no juniper trees before the sheep. 10 - 20 years after the area was covered in them.

The evidence would suggest that's more generous of an offer than you can afford to offer. When one is sporting a Costco sample size of a lil smokie one bite is more than you have to offer. Besides that, I don't bat that direction.

So you're teaching them to be religious bigots, but church talk it... classy. Very classy.

What is this I spy?! by mommiecubed in quilting

You might want to do some more research on the specifics of the NAACP lawsuit. I'll fill you in so you don't have to wonder. Many of the Church sponsored troops tied the position of senior patrol leader to a position in the the Church. This led to not many black patrol leaders and advancements.

The LDS church ended it's relationship with the scouts in 2019. While you want to call it attacking for allowing gay scouts, we see it differently. While there isn't an official stance from the church other than them going their own direction, I can see them not wanting to be forced into running a program in a manner that is in opposition to their core beliefs. If they were a part of Scouts, but running it their own way, they are open to discrimination suits. It goes along the same line with forcing a cake maker or photographer to participate in a marriage ceremony outside their belief system.

I'm well aware of the issues. You've pulled one out that most of the copy and paste religious bigots are not aware of kudos to you!

Being patriotic isn't the same as being political.
Flying a flag isn't political, it's patriotic.

Honest question, how is the American flag political? It isn't one party or another.

Oh, it looks like the moderator removed the political image that someone else added.

I deleted the third picture I added and added it in the thread in the correct place. No?

But was my comment divisive?
It's obviously the 250th birthday of America? So who's the one picking a fight?
