@GovMikeHuckabee @realDonaldTrump @POTUS Know what makes me sick? People who say they're Christians and actively hate and mock others instead of exhibiting the fruit of the Spirit. (Being loving is way too high of a goal, apparently.) "Good" Friday, indeed.

@lyndseyfifield Not surprised. When I've spoken about patience and sex in relationships, I've been called a slut-shamer, blah blah blah. Just acknowledge it has power and consequences - and be prepared to navigate accordingly. Self-control is not appreciated in our culture. At all.

@annbauerwriter Had the same discussion with a friend. I'm in Idaho for Christmas, and drove up from Vegas. All through Utah and Montana folks are living freely (and in ID, too). Was in KY last month, and same. Some wear masks, some don't, and folks can decide for themselves.
