I don’t believe in adding things to my hotdog. If sauerkraut is available I will add it to my hot dog otherwise a burnt hot dog with nothing on it on hot dog bun is the best. And I usually just eat them plain. Don't add cheese or lettuce- just a plain fairly black hot dog- kosher is best of course....

And again I am saying that is what I heard from conservative friends as to why they didn't get vaccines. I am making no judgements. First they talked about autism but then they spoke about the fetal cell line. I was just explaining how I saw it in conservative circles and why. My goodness- you can't...

I didn't deny it was in liberal circles I just saying- it very very much a part of conservative circles.

No but I felt it was implied that the church could discern what occupation was acceptable by the below quote: by saying we support people in doing whatever they want. I never said whatever occupation a person wanted but it seems if the church doesn't like it that is ok- and there are churches that w...

No one said do whatever they want. Many occupations are not such and I'm sorry - I don't get the anabaptist part about not judging and about being the ones to discern what a persons occupation should be. So an engineer, an architect, an accountant, and so many other occupations are not acceptable? S...

Every case is different and what works for one family may not for another. Support for the family- as in grandparents or aunts and uncles helps a great deal too and these days face time or the equivalent make a huge difference. My son has to be away about 2 or 3 times a year for 3-6 weeks. We are cl...
