Mostly local or small scale.Toirdhealbheach Beucailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872794169534403463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14404262.post-13676869410258351272021-11-06T17:00:07.183-07:002021-11-06T17:00:07.183-07:00No, that is one aspect Linda.

Last time I look Bono org for something was 92% cost to run and 8% went to help. His was the worst. If they are paying their CEO a million or more then they don't get 1 very thin dime. Always check out what they do with each dollar you give. <br />MargiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14404262.post-32883587832455771452021-11-05T21:12:01.946-07:002021-11-05T21:12:01.946-07:00Businesses should be allowed to stand or fail base...Businesses should be allowed to stand or fail based on consumer preference.<br />Not because they won't bake a cake or give a discount to people who pray before they eat their meal.<br />Or did I over simplify what you were trying to explain?LindaGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12203719919661519350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14404262.post-44771523596399875322021-11-05T17:57:34.497-07:002021-11-05T17:57:34.497-07:00The Catholic Church, at least out here in the West...The Catholic Church, at least out here in the West, has been engaged in an orgy of pandering to Mexicans. The people who founded the parishes, raised the money for the buildings, and peopled those parishes have been largely discarded in favor of filling the pews with our neighbors to the south. The major masses are bilingual; read "long and confusing for all." The books in the pews are titled in Spanish with an English subtitle. Nothing is thought wrong about the Mexican kids doing pagan Aztec dances in front of the church. And then there's the Mexican fanaticism with Mary... The church just shrugs its shoulders. I became an outcast in my own church. Realizing that, I walked away... I was no longer needed...Peteforesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00702888855868877243noreply@blogger.com
