Thank you. We have this neat technology now called Universal Resource Locator URL where you can put a "link" to a reference and others can see it, verify it or evaluate the validity of the topic. They are only 35 years old but they should catch on soon.
Break the screen shot habit or at least augment it with a URL.
It's a bad habit.
You're welcome. 🫂
Yesterday for Trump Inauguration we witnessed the swearing in ceremony of JD Vance and then Donald J. Trump.
The ceremony invocation was led by some Christian Ministers and the benediction was led by a Rabbi and two more Christian Ministers. This was very nice.
But let's talk about swearing in.

Mat 5:33-37 KJV ¶Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
34. But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne:
35. Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
36. Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37. But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

That's pretty clear to me. How about military service? How about going to court?
Are we so corrupt that the obvious is brushed under the rug? We even swear on the Bible that says: "Swear not at all." Those are Jesus'words.
A great example of why swearing and oaths are no good is in the Mahabharata. More than once a ruler or potential ruler makes a noble oath and gets his behind handed to him.
We in this modem age take oaths and break them with impunity, carelessness or inside we have knots of stress or consciousness that physically render us I'll. It's no good.
Any thoughts on this?
Do we want true freedom or do we want lip service?
Why don't we just say, "Thank you for the opportunity to serve or testify. It is my intention to do a great job."

A system with no ruler cannot be measured. Bitcoin has a ruler. It just doesn't have a human being in charge of the ruler.
And this is news? Or a screen shot?
It ain't no disco either but we dancing anyway.
Good Morning.
Today's Bitcoin affirmation:
"I will get triggered by my high expectations because I'm no longer like them. I will take myself seriously because fools are all around me. Bitcoin means everything to me because I'm empty inside."
