Happy New Year!!!
"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”

Re: Happy New Year!!!
Same wishes from me. Let's hope it ends with our democracy still intact and stronger and thriving, with more nearly universal good will for all, less hatred and fewer wars still in progress!
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

I hope for the same. I am very worried that the opposite may be the case, but I still have hope.

Wishing all a good new year. Grab some optimism.
I certainly hope for no disasters for democracy but history has ups and downs. A bad turn is not forever however, not forever even in extremes like Germany.

I see your point, there is a true space for pessimism but I wish you a happy new year.

Re: Happy New Year!!!
Happy new year guys.
I'm hoping for a general election this year muahahaha...
Struggling to see the dog situation here in the UK today. I don't have a dog but it's still heartbreaking to see that innocent creatures are being punished because A hole humans that are vile exist.
Hoping for a positive year worldwide.
Edit to clarify... I mean people who deliberately rile up and over breed dogs for their own amusement and greed. And people who steal dogs and cats to make them fight and use them as bait... Not good.
