Jay, the rules are no swearing, no caps. I will edit these. The saying is, if you can’t write without such emphasis, you can’t write well . Again, we appreciate all comments, but within guidelines. By the way, you seem to be against Jesus. Have you asked God recently who He is? This “asking” is also known as “praying”. Try it!
