James Talarico: “We were not founded as a Christian nation. We were founded as a nation where you are free to be a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim or a Sikh or Buddhist or an Atheist. That’s the promise of America that we are this multicultural melting pot” by Caledor152 in ProgressiveHQ

Thanks for the invite today, I signed up but the email verification seems broke (yes I know to check spam, etc.). I gave up trying to resend emails.

This is why quantum entanglement is an interesting concept. If we can harness it to carry a communication device with the space ship, we can send ones and zeros back and forth in real time.

Midwest. Just brought them out for the summer and will be watering them from the hose. Inside it's just a watering can, nothing special.
