Left and Right don’t apply to Islamic terrorism except that Islamists think that they are the only ones who are Right and should be the only ones who are Left.

I like that line 🙂

@Enco –  you wrote: I got lucky and was able to get a prescription for a COVID-19 vaccine, completely covered by my insurance, with only the hassle of going to my Primary Care Physician, who fortunately didn’t charge me for the visit.

Hours spent on religious indoctrination (especially in schools that emphasize rote memorization of doctrine) are hours not spent on inquiry-based learning, STEM labs, or building critical reasoning skills.

I did not expect to find myself in agreement with Ted Cruz…..
