Wow your deep thoughts are, well, deep in a place I don't want to go lol
The christian blood drinking cannibal cult has already outlived its long history of giving every generation the expectation of being in their last days and the End of the World senario has caused many people to not finish school, have children and plan for a future. Then their is the idea that this gawd of the jews needs you to give the scammers 10% of your income in tithes. The jew named Saul took this poisonous recipe from a suicidal cult of jews that the jews used to take Rome down, How does anyone fall for tis load of shit. Even if he did exist which he never did he would be a bastard born from a married jewis fucked by a Holy ghost who caused hundreds of infants to get murdered because they were looking for him It all started with a sick man who heard voices in his head that told him to discect and BBQ his own son and ends with a pervert that tells guys to marry him, et his body and drink his blood and the good news that he will come back and kill everybody.
So where's the white people? just curious

continued McDonnell said safety enhancements are an important element of the plan in addition to projected savings.
"I am most concerned about maintaining our public safety in our town and our response times, of course our cost savings are wonderful as well," McDonnell said.
Before the Niskayuna Town Board voted to approve the agreement on Tuesday, July 24, she said she was assured response times would not increase under the plan.
The Rotterdam Town Board approved the agreement on Wednesday, July 11. Supervisor Harry Buffardi after the meeting said "services would be consistent" along with helping balance the budget.
"It is a good way for the town to save money and it helps stay under the state mandated tax cap," Buffardi said. "The idea of dispatching services is much different in the computer age than before when it was divided up into five to six different parcels."
Several local officials also said dispatchers would have more of a career path at the centralized station, because there would be supervisory and management positions offered. Every currently employed dispatcher is offered a position at the new station.
The county pushed for an agreement after receiving a $1 million grant from the state to implement the plan that it set to expire in March 2013. Without the grant money, the county would completely fund construction of the Unified Communications Center or the rental cost of the center. Also, there would be $560,000 in dedicated 911 surcharge revenue from the county. The county would also provide up to $143,000 in transitional funding to maintain necessary staffing levels.
Koetzle hopes the collaboration on the central dispatch is part of a trend.
"It is an important first step in working together," Koetzle said, "and hopefully it's just the beginning of many things we can do together to help our taxpayers save some money."

Alex Jones Memorial
Alex...gone but NEVER forgotten
The store is open NOW and all profits will be sent to the Alex Jones Memorial Fund to support Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America.
It closes on Friday, June 19th at midnight.
The Golf outing started as a way for our family to deal with Alex's death. It has become so much more as we continue to connect with people who live and prosper with Crohn's and Colitis. It continues to raise awareness of the diseases as well as promoting the incredible community that comes from the sharing and networking with all the wonderful people have been privileged to have met. We continue to be inspired and impacted by their stories and humbled by the many blessings that come with hosting the Golf Outing each year in Alex's memory. Dave, Adam and I feel so fortunate to be able to continue to money to fund research, find better treatments, raise awareness and be a part of the CCFA community. Thanks to all of you for your continued support.
Last year we were able to raise $16000.00 which added to our previous year's total of 50,000,00 raised and donated to Team Challenge runners and walkers, Camp Oasis and direct donations to Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America. So over $66,000.00 in 5years has been raised. Our goal for 2015 is again 15,000.oo. You can help us by registering for our golf outing, attending the dinner at the outing, buying raffle tickets and bidding on silent auction items. If you cannot attend the outing or dinner and wish to support our even, you can make donations on our website.
Last year's dinner featured Alex Jofriet, who is now a freshman at UC. His inspiring story of dealing with Crohn's disease was such a fine example of why we continue to fund raise- to find better treatments, raise awareness and to finally find cures for these disease. Alex has had a great first year at UC and we wish him the best! We have featured, Dave Vermette, Devon Buesking, Elise and Ken Baum, and Chad Kelly as well as Alex at our past dinners. Trust me when I say this year's speaker will be another outstanding example of courage and success!
You can register for the outing or dinner and make donations on this web site by clocking on the tabs along the right side of our home page. You can read Alex's story, look at pictures from our previous outings and contact us from this web site.
We thank you again for visiting and look forward to your support. We love you all.

Potts Spring Church Cemetery
LaRue County, Kentucky
This listing was contributed by Edward Benningfield [firstname.lastname@example.com]. Total records = 2.
Copied in Summer 1998
(Nelsonville map, Section 10-N-46 Carter coordinates) Sometimes called the Gaddis cemetery, this small cemetery is about one mile north of the Salem Christian Church. Records in the office of the Larue County Court Clerk indicate that George Gaddis was married to Mary E. Hargan on the 3rd day of November 1870 at Henry Hargan's. The marriage bond states that his parents were born in North Carolina. There are perhaps 50 graves with just fieldstones. Many of these graves are no doubt early settlers of this area. The Church is long gone.
- Edward Benningfield
Gaddis, George W. � 10 April 1852 � 28 May 1874
Gaddis, Lulu M. � (dau. of G. W. & M. E.) 4 April 1871 � 19 Dec. 1871

I woke up scared to a world was grey
From underneath my door
My blood was crawling away
And laughters I heard so long ago
Came back tonight said don't let go
There is still hope that lies ahead
-who are you talking to son?
-no one it's all in my head
I'll shed the last tear and I'll go to bed
I'll have one last hug before I'm dead
She covered me and sang the last lullaby
I made believe that I won't cry
She said goodnight
I said goodbye
But will the pain end up tonight
And can their darkness beat my light
Innocence burning in my heart
Questions burning in my mind
Is it strength to face the reaper?
Or is it strength to suicide?
Suicide by GhaithXNiteWatch
©2011-2016 GhaithXNite
I wrote this poem, bout how happiness is always stronger than sorrow, and no matter how much the darkness takes over your life, you can always find enough reasons to live and to smile
Very beautiful, well written
that is very true...
I love it and it gave me strenght to stay strong
I love it and it gave me strenght to stay strong
Very, very well written. The tone and emotion of the poetry compliment each other significantly. The reader can FEEL the pain of the writer and the word choices help the flow and togetherness of it. I love it, well done. <333
i really love it
I hate reading dark poetry, but they are something I can relate to. I definitely felt the emotions in this one. This was written well. Kudos to you. ♥
This is so relevant right now. I loved this so much. Thank you for writing this.<3

Byfuglien, Pyatt, and Canucks lead 2-1
Through the game there were several names that people came with on Twitter instead of Byfuglien. I coined Byfuglidouche, there was B-Fug, DieFuglyOne, Buttfugly, and my personal favourite, (and no, I have no idea how you get the following nickname from Byfuglien) Barfing Lama. I'm sure there are a couple more out there. He's starting to get on my nerves about as much as he's bothering Luongo.

One of the biggest mysteries in biomedical sciences is understanding how stem cells transform into the dazzling array of specialized cells that make us what we are. Recent discoveries have started to clarify the nature of stem cells, but many questions remain. In a new critical review article featured as a cover story in the March 2014 issue of "Integrative Biology", University of Michigan scientists discuss both historical and current views of intestinal stem cells, drawing insights into the main questions and controversies in the field.
"In our work we pay special attention to recent efforts made in integrating computational models and in vivo experimentation to investigate stem cell dynamics, differentiation and growth to build the intestinal crypt," says Alexis Carulli, a graduate student in the Molecular & Integrative Physiology Program.
"We illustrate how this novel integration between theoretical models and laboratory experiments is making important advances in intestinal development and diseases," says one of the lead authors, Santiago Schnell, Ph.D., associate professor of Molecular & Integrative Physiology at the U-M Medical School. The U-M research team presents key questions in the field that can be addressed using this integrative approach.
Adult stem cells are crucial for maintaining proper function and repair of gastrointestinal tissues. Because the intestine is one of the most rapidly regenerated tissues in the body, intestinal stem cell research is essential to provide insight into intestinal pathologies.
"Understanding the repair response of stem cells is important for managing radiation therapies and environmental exposures as well as developing treatments for intestinal disease resulting from lost or damaged tissue" says the other lead author of the work, Linda Samuelson, Ph.D., professor of Molecular & Integrative Physiology at the U-M Medical School.

Beautiful! Try not to pick them! They might cause a skin rash! And only grow in wet shady places, creek beds, and drain ditches!
Very lovely. The way you captured the light behind it is wonderful.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- John McCain and Barack Obama are sending the same message on at least two aspects of a federal rescue of the financial system. Both say Congress needs to redouble efforts to save the plan that the House rejected yesterday. And, they are both calling for raising federal deposit insurance from the current $100,000 to $250,000.
In an interview on CNN, McCain said the package should be called "a rescue," not "a bailout." The GOP presidential nominee says the situation is frightening Americans, and political leaders need to deliver both an immediate solution and a longer-term approach to the problem.
Obama issued a statement this morning saying lawmakers should not start from scratch on a new plan. On the issue of increasing federal deposit insurance, he said that would help small businesses, make the U.S. banking system more secure and restore public confidence in the nation's financial system.

Hockey players of all ages and areas are coming together this weekend at the Ludington Park.
Anyone is welcome to watch the fourth annual Mites to Men pond hockey tournament. Hosted by the Escanaba Area Junior Hockey Association, teams signed up in advance to compete and hopefully win.
â??I havenâ??t got first place once, but we got last place twice, Iâ??m pretty sure,â?? said hockey player Morgan Johnson.
The tournament draws players from all areas of Michigan.
â??Iâ??m from Saginaw,â?? Johnson said. â??It took about six hours to get up here. It was a long drive.â??
With multiple rinks, spectators can expect to see varying levels of athleticism at any time Sawyer Lamarchâ??s brother plays for the Ice Breakers.
â??I play for Binkâ??s Coca Cola, squirts,â?? said Elizabeth Sliva.
In addition to hockey, there are beer and warming tents, food, raffles, and an open skate rink. With all the activities, everyone has their favorite part. Sliva said she enjoys being in nature and on the lake.
â??I like watching my brother win,â?? said Mya Streichert.
For those looking to watch a little pond puck, the tournament is taking place Friday through Feb. 2.

Vomiting at the keyboard and humiliation as a driving force
I am enjoying reading Wayne Koestenbaum's 'Humiliation' very much. The tiny chapters are bite-sized dishes (in more than one sense) and all is a-sparkle with wit and insight – sometimes lyrical, sometimes brutal, never dull.I'm 35% through (yes, I'm reading it on my Kindle) and one of my former piano teachers has just made an unnamed appearance over my house-made Midtown spaghetti with lamb ragu: Adele Marcus who, so overcome by nerves just before the Schumann concerto's whiplash orchestral E and the piano's zigzagging chords which simply ask to be smudged (and forgotten), vomited on to the keyboard. The author says this took place in London, I had always thought it was in Aspen, but the story has been repeated too many times for it not to be true. The author observes: "Vomit on the keyboard – that image symbolizes, for me, the always possible danger of the body speaking up for its own rights, against the stringent demands of the mind's wish to construct a plausible, attractive, laudable self for other people to admire."
This takes us back to an earlier blog post of mine, about the requirement and burden since Liszt to play from memory. Wrong notes can be part of the acceptable rough and tumble of a romantic interpretation, they can even seem daring and exciting and carefree; but stopping … forgetting … blanking: this is the ultimate musical humiliation in a public space, in front of an audience. I am sure that Adele Marcus was afraid of forgetting in the Schumann, not of striking false notes or misjudging phrasing or pedalling.
As I suggested in that earlier post, the requirement for pianists to play everything from memory has probably called a halt to many careers which would otherwise have flourished. From the first time we have to play in front of our fellow-students at the earliest age we face the roulette of public performance: adulation = red squares; humiliation = black squares. And at the end of the evening it is the pianist's ability to remember the notes, not to play them, which takes him or her to the cashier with a light tread and heavy pockets … or the opposite.

Partnership Forum
The Partnership Forum is composed of representatives of organisations and interests having a significant role in managing the Norfolk Coast AONB.
The role of the Partnership Forum is to bring together the perspectives of many organisations through a representative system, to develop policy for the Partnership and to develop, review and implement the AONB Management Plan. This role is vital to the effective operation of the AONB Management Plan and delivery of actions within the Action Plan. It also acts as an important information exchange network between the various partner organisations.
The Partnership Forum usually meets at least twice a year to review the AONB Action Plan, and as necessary to consider particular issues (see meetings page).
Smaller working groups, consisting of selected members of the Partnership Forum and other people with special knowledge or expertise, may be formed to steer projects and develop policy on specific issues.

02:56 pm - Difference between 10 and 4 seconds, in context
Kind of, if you are talking about a complete operation that you run "often" then absolutely (and if you run it very often, then even 4 seconds might be "too long"). However at the other end of the spectrum if it's one of many operations, and the others take 10-30 seconds combined and the user only runs this type of thing "rarely" then I'd have to disagree very strongly.
But let me just argue this way instead, do you have a usecase where you think the performance of yum matters from a UI point of view. You don't even need a comparison to apt/zypper/whatever, just a case where you think it's so slow it's hindering the UI. I'm not saying we can 100% "fix" it, but we'll certainly look at it.

Well, the whole situation does sound very frustrating, and more than a little upsetting.

this would be a possible explanation for the inconsistent "timelines" you reference
that is to say, you may have integrated all the memories but they are not lined up properly
would rather not go into even more terrifying possibilities as i need to think this through a bit more

Changing the way you see Inspirational Television
Our "President's Letter" is released on the 15th of each month with other news and updates sent weekly.
Tina and I are so very pleased and excited to announce our newest TCT Network station: WIGL TV 38, serving over 4 million people in 2.3+ million homes in the Atlanta, Georgia region! Now all those who have access to this station can watch the best in Christian programming, 24/7! We are so grateful to the Lord for opening the doors to allow this new TV station to become a TCT family member, and we look forward to providing the people of Atlanta, Georgia and surrounding areas with quality Christian programming.
We also want to thank you for helping us celebrate 31 years of Ask the Pastor. We recently brought you a 10 day event, with our partner studios, to celebrate this program. To our TCT staff members and volunteers and all of the ministries that took part in this celebration- thank you! We love and appreciate each and every one of you! Because of your dedication and support, this Ask the Pastor Anniversary was the best one yet!
We are so honored and humbled by your commitment and participation in our network. Our heart is to be a light in dark times, shining brightly and calling the lost, the discouraged, the distracted, and the disheartened to the cross. God has a plan for this generation. He is not taken by surprise by all that has happened in this world or in this nation recently. His plans are not disrupted. In fact, He states: "I work, and who can reverse it (Isaiah 43:13)?" We know that many are troubled by the times, and rightly so, but we hope that you are not questioning God's ability to see His mission to completion in the midst of it. This is simply a time for us to join together in greater unity and pray for our world, our nation and each other!
As you all know, we are devoted to prayer. We believe in its power and importance. Jesus said: "Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven (Matthew 18:19)." And James said: "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much (James 5:16)." With that in mind, won't you join with us in praying for the needs of our brothers and sisters? We receive, literally, hundreds of prayer requests daily, and our Prayer Team is faithful to lift each and every one of them up before the Lord in fervent prayer.
For instance, one viewer asked us:
"Please pray for a friend of mine. He has been the prayer team leader at our church in Birmingham, Alabama. He had a stroke and is unable to speak. The prayer team and I believe God will bring him a full recovery."
"Please pray for a friend of mine. He has been the prayer team leader at our church in Birmingham, Alabama. He had a stroke and is unable to speak. The prayer team and I believe God will bring him a full recovery."
Yes, we will join our prayers with yours for a total and complete healing for this brother!
Still another viewer sought our prayers:
"I'm asking God to intervene in my grandson's life. He has suicidal thoughts, depression, anxiety, and panic attacks. Lord, please heal him."
"I'm asking God to intervene in my grandson's life. He has suicidal thoughts, depression, anxiety, and panic attacks. Lord, please heal him."
We are praying with you for your grandson, according to 2 Timothy 1:7, which says: "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind (NKJV)."
Tina and I are so grateful that TCT Ministries is growing and that we are becoming available to more people in more places, both here and abroad. I know you understand the importance of getting quality Christian programming into more homes. These are difficult days in which we are living, and programs that uplift the heart and soul, that bring hope and help to hurting individuals, are not only important, but needed!
If you haven't already become a TCT Partner, please pray and consider what you might give to be a part of this team effort and keep quality Christian programming alive and thriving. A gift of $25, $30 or $40 a month can do so much! But any seed in any amount that you can sow is very much appreciated.
Thank you, from our hearts to yours, for your friendship and your generosity. We know that as you give, you will be blessed in return. God said it, and we believe it!
Yours in Christ,
Garth and Tina Coonce

The home favourite started the second run with an advantage of 0.38 seconds over the field following a blistering first run, and he was on course for glory half-way through his second run after extending his lead slightly in the opening section.
But his right ski then went the wrong side of one of the gates by the narrowest of margins, effectively handing the win to Germany's Felix Neureuther.
Hirscher realised what he had done immediately and stopped, before sidestepping his way back up to the missed gate and completing the course to a huge cheer from the thousands of spectators at the floodlit finale.
Neureuther was an easy winner, over half a second clear of Norway's Henrik Kristofferson, with Italy's Patrick Thaler coming in third.

I have written a client and server using java sockets. The two machines are on the same network. When I connect using the local IP addresses there are no issues. However if I use the public IP address the connection times out and the client throws "SocketException: connection reset", and the server throws "SocketException: connection reset by peer: socket write error". This happens most of the time, but once in a blue moon the connection actually succeeds. I can successfully ping the servers local address and the router from the client machine.
I have gone into my router, assigned the server machine to a permanent IP address, and forwarded all traffic on the relevant port to that IP address. Unfortunately that was the only thing that I thought could have solved the issue and it did not. I have also turned off windows firewall on the server, still no luck.
The client: (ip taken from whatismyip.com)
Socket s = new Socket("xx.xxx.xxx.xx", 27499);
to connect.
The server:
InetAddress ip = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(27499, 0, ip);
Socket cs = ss.accept();
Any help would be appreciated. I can provide more code if necessary.

Contact Conservatism
Bearing has an interesting post up which I suspect reflects the political experience of many serious Catholics over the last twenty five years. The whole thing is worth reading, but I'm quoting it extensively because I think the point she's making is interesting and widely applicable:
I entered full communion with the Catholic church at the Easter Vigil in 1993, when I was a freshman in college…. A couple of years after that, I had a second conversion in which I was forced to realize that I could not be simultaneously a believing Catholic and a supporter of legal abortion. (Why it took me so long is another story again. Hint: There were some serious problems in that particular RCIA program.)
When to be Progressive
Being a contarian sort of creature, I've been wanting for some time to write a post on why the progressive instinct is sometimes the right one. I'm quite certain that neither conservatism nor progressivism, properly understood, is the only possible view for the moral and reasonable citizen — and yet I find myself impeded in this by being in fact a very temperamentally conservative person.
First off, I'd like to suggest that as most precisely used "conservative" and "progressive" (I'm avoiding the term "liberal" here because it strikes me as having an even more confusing and increasingly imprecise meaning) are very relative terms. The progressive seeks to change current social structures, attitudes and political institutions in order to make them better. He seeks to progress. Conservative seeks to preserve existing structures and institutions, and when he accedes to change he urges that it be done slowly in order to avoid the disruption which rapid change often results in.
I would argue that there are some times when we should follow the progressive instinct, others when we should clearly follow the conservative one, and many in which it is a matter of debate which should be followed.
True Audacity
President-Elect Obama used the word audacity a lot in his rise to the presidency but how much audacity does it take to be a liberal state senator, representing a liberal district, in a liberal state? True audacity is going against the odds and against the consensus on pundits. That is exactly what Joseph Cao did in Louisiana's 2nd Congressional District. Cao is a devout Catholic Republican Vietnamese immigrant in an overwhelmingly African American and Democrat congressional district. Although his opponent is undoubtably corrupt politician facing serious indictments, he was still not given a chance at winning. Unfortunately, voters, especially it seems African American voters, often overlook these flaws in the name of some sort of racial solidarity. Nevertheless, Cao won! Let's pray that he can help rebuild the wonderful city of New Orleans and provide true opportunity for its amazing people. Cao, like Bobby Jindal and Sarah Palin, is already getting attention from Republican leadership as the future of the party.
Although Cao probably hasn't even had a chance to organize his staff, yesterday I heard Al Sharpton say that he would be working to "fix" this situation. Seems for Sharpton and his ilk working with a person who cares about the district and its people is trumped by partisan and racial politics.
Basic Health Care and the Common Good, A Conservative Response
Eric wrote what I think is a very good and heartfelt post about Catholic Social Teaching and Health Care Reform. Because this is exactly the sort of substantive discussion that American Catholic was intended to foster, I'd like to see if I can pick up some of the themes which he brought up and explore them specifically from a small government conservative and free market angle.
To start with, I'd like to make a distinction between levels of care, though such things are always slippery because medical science advances so rapidly in our modern world. First, there is basic health care. This includes most of the healthcare which goes on most of the time in the US — unless you're well outside the norm it's probably all that you've needed within the last year.
Is Religion the GOP's Downfall?
Everyone seems to have their own idea of what it is that the GOP lacks these days. Kathleen Parker seems to think that the big problem is its lack of a columnist with the prose style, intellectual rigor and cultural sensibilities of a Maureen Dowd — and in her most recent Washington Post column she tries to fill that void. [HT: Cranky Conservative]
As Republicans sort out the reasons for their defeat, they likely will overlook or dismiss the gorilla in the pulpit.
Three little letters, great big problem: G-O-D.
I'm bathing in holy water as I type.
To be more specific, the evangelical, right-wing, oogedy-boogedy branch of the GOP is what ails the erstwhile conservative party and will continue to afflict and marginalize its constituents if reckoning doesn't soon cometh.
Simply put: Armband religion is killing the Republican Party. And, the truth — as long as we're setting ourselves free — is that if one were to eavesdrop on private conversations among the party intelligentsia, one would hear precisely that.
Bragging Rights
Goodness knows, there are lots of ways that liberals and conservatives manage to annoy each other. Still, one that has struck me recently is an odd sort of bragging rights.
One of the main divisions between these groups at this point in time is over how the less vulnerable in society are best provided with care. The liberal view is generally that comprehensive government programs should be set up to assure that everyone in society has a certain basic level of food, income, medical care, housing, babysitting, rice pudding, etc. The conservative view is generally that guaranteed government handouts create dependency and hurt people in the long run, and that short term help for those in trouble is generally better provided by family, church or private charity.
The problem comes when members of these two groups get together and start arguing about how to help others.
Reflections on a Defeat
So we lost. I don't like it a bit, but it's not exactly a surprise, and there it is. What is one to make of it all?
The Historic Moment
A great many people have commented on the historic nature of a black man being elected president of the United States — when in some states he would not have been served at many lunch counters fifty years ago.
I'm glad that those who are deeply inspired by that are having their moment — people should realize that skin color is not a barrier to achievement in the US and if this helps people (black, brown and white) realize that, all to the good. I must admit, as a 29-year-old who grew up in the working class suburbs of Los Angeles, I've figured for basically all my life that it was simply a matter of time till we had our first black president, our first hispanic president, out first female president, etc.
Weary of Wonkery
Whether the next four years are spend under an Obama administration or a McCain administration, one thing that may be said with certainty is that conservatives are going to have to do some serious thinking over that time in order to come up with an agenda that can bring conservatives back into political success — and bring the GOP back into something like conservatism. Either administration will be enough to make principled conservatives cringe — though I think that an Obama one would visit greater damage upon the country.
There are lots of contenders out there wanting present the new conservative policies that will bring the GOP back to relevance. Ross Douthat is very much at the forefront of that, with his Grand New Party out in bookstores.
Sarah's Going Rogue
I'm perfectly fine with that… maybe she's not the hope for the future of populist conservatism that many believe she is or was, but I'd rather have her in the mix than not. And while she certainly bears some responsibility for some of her poor performances in interviews, an equal amount goes to the campaign for mishandling those aspects of her rollout.
(HT: Rod Dreher.)
Measured Rhetoric Is More Effective
A good part of what I was trying to say in my Socialist post the other day concerned the relationship between precision in political rhetoric and its ability to persuade; in short, I think that "toned-down" rhetoric is more likely to convince an interlocutor (let alone an observer) of at least the plausibilty of one's position than is the "speaking truth to power" approach.
Catacombs or New Jerusalem?
There are two poles, I think, to Christian attitudes towards the state.
At the one pole is a catacomb mentality. Here Christians think of the state as an unrelievedly secular force, and they seek to render what they must unto Caesar while keeping themselves aloof from its corrupting influence.
At the other pole is what might be termed the New Jerusalem mentality, in which the Christian sees the state as a means to achieve a more just and loving society which will reinforce virtue.
