@Tarnport ~ Yes, I recall that from the 60's protests too. Our chant was "Vive La France" protesting our inheriting the war from them. 💕
@bmacDonald94 in college during counterprotested pride parades we used to whisper all together, "Bring back the lions. Bring back the lions." Theyd eventually quiet down just to try and make out what everyone was chanting. It was worth it just to see their faces.
@Tarnport ~ Of course not, we were merely the rabble. 😝
@bmacDonald94 ha! Did they follow that?
@elala Not a week goes by without reading someone's sad story of having lived through this. Pure abuse to seduce a child in fantasy, they do wake up to that sad fact - so unfair. Be well my friend. 💕
@bmacDonald94
The poor children 😭
@elala ~ Another example, sadly of Voltaire's atrocities from believing absurdities. Religion is a control mechanism and that is all it is. There is no comforting thought of afterlife, one misses the beauty of what we have been given. Thank you for sharing and thrive dear friend. 💕

Destroyed souls :/ My ex grew up in a “faith community” as a child and had to sue to be “allowed” to go to a home for young people when he was 15. Fortunately, his survival instinct was strong enough for him to take this step, but he still had to struggle for many years with what he had experienced.

But I will become a daisy after death 🤗 - that's still true, isn't it?👀 😬
@elala Keep plenty of seeds in your pocket dear friend. The pollinators will name a hive after you. 🙂 ❤️
@alterelefant ~ Obviously easy to spell. Thanks for pointing that out. Be well.
@bmacDonald94 The sign showing: "God hates your ears", might be the best one yet.
