31. tom
Remember Marcus Aurelius was also an eager persecutor of Christians, whom he disdained for their obstinacy in refusing to bow to the emperor and the empire’s gods.

That struck a bell, tom, and I looked it up. Turns out you were right, it was in the Emperor’s own book, “Dreams of My Father.” Reasons were something about guns, certainly religion, and hating people that were not of the Roman elite.

There but for the grace of God goes Horowitz, but for the almost saving faith in derailing those who revel in the politics of bad faith. There’s a book in there somewhere.

Steve Jobs (RIP) will ultimately get what he deserves (we all will), but Horowitz, for his work in thelast 20+ years in warning us about Communism here at home, deserves sainthood. Too bad he was too late.

Say, didn’t Steve Jobs get a Liver transplant by jumping “in lime” for the next match? So did Mickey Mantle as I remember. The powers that be who accomplished such while some may have died waiting for the next one have magnified their greatness even more, but that depends upon the audience appreciating such things.

There is a nexus and a decided link in the Liver-Gall Bladder-Pancrease organs. Never paid attention to it until June.
