JOHN RUBENS is no Mother Teresa.

Psalm 122:

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together: [II Sam. 5:9] Where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

For my family and friends’ sakes, I will now say, ‘Peace be within thee’.

Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

[paraphrased from the Original King James translation of the Bible].

HILLARY CLINTON: I don’t wear my faith on my sleeve.

FICTIONAL CHELSEA CLINTON: I don’t understand how who my mother is…is not crystal clear when it’s so clear to me.

FICTIONAL DONALD TRUMP: Neither do I.

It’s globalism, the U.S. Constitution and it’s applicability to refugees isn’t it? How does Merrick Garland weigh in on the dilemma of colliding worlds?

What about that GDP metric and climate change, transboundary air pollution?

When 1 sees want & death around oneself, if ur like us, the senses get deadened to much misery. Some, like #MotherTheresa @POTUS don’t tire of doing good. Potus can be many of the Presidents we’ve had in different ways [if you want to include #43 taking care of Islamic refugees, mostly women and children seeking asylum].

“I Don’t Know.” Ozzy Osbourne intimates: Don’t expect to solve every problem. Meet it, shakes its hand then ‘kick ass’. Caveat: Ozzy may still be British and George Washington, other Americans, distained the practice of shaking hands.

ps: the word “distain” and it’s past tense “distained” are being discouraged by word and google. Avoid, Avoided would be synonyms that work as well today.
