I have a bias as a millennial who attended book releases, but I just don’t understand the need to remake Harry Potter at all. I’ve seen people say oh it’s for the new generation but… just read the books and watch the existing media. You’ll never create that magic again, why try?

Vance suggests Iran could have used nuclear suicide vests: “You talk about people who walk into a crowded supermarket and have a vest on, and they blow up the vest and a couple of people get killed, and that's a terrible tragedy. What happens when what's on the vest is not something that can kill a couple of people, but can kill many, many tens of thousands of people?”

Am I the only mom who gets annoyed by how ugly the illustrations are in modern children's books? It's like they put effort into making them look horrible and depressing. Why?

“I don't see color.” "We all bleed red." “There's only one race - the human race.”

Noelia Castillo Ramos is 25. After a life marked by abuse and sexual assault, and a suicide attempt that left her paraplegic, she is scheduled for euthanasia. And this is where we are. A wounded woman, in pain and despair, is told death is a solution. We call it compassion. It is not. It is surrender. A culture that cannot carry the broken will eventually eliminate them. That is not dignity. That is despair dressed up as mercy. The defense of life must be wider. It cannot stop at the unborn. It must stand for the violated, the disabled, the suffering, the forgotten. Otherwise, we simply change who we abandon. And let us be honest: doctors are skilled, but they are not moral authorities. The same hands that heal can also be trained to end life. Skill is not wisdom. Noelia did not need death. She needed protection, love, constancy, and meaning. Life belongs to God. We do not restore dignity by consenting to death, but by refusing to abandon the wounded.

I’m seeing, yet again, this surge of hatred for the Boomer generation. I’m a late season Boomer, born in 1961; I’ve worked for nearly 50 years, have been in the same profession for 37 years, I’ve routinely worked 45-60 hours a week. I don’t get why we are so vilified.

The British cultural heritage is based on Christ's teaching And Christ's teaching is NOT about acquiring power. Read the Beatitudes ! The Koran's teaching is ALL about acquiring power, killing 'infidels' and imposing Islam on everyone That why the British tradition is vastly superior, and more respectful of human dignity

If we would bring back public hangings this would stop.
