keydaniels I have been hearing the kids complain about the same thing in basketball. Racial slurs tend to fly when we play against these private academies. Even saw a situation at another school with parents fighting and nearly all spectators rushing the court after slurs were thrown around. The crazy part is that the game wasn't canceled. They calmed everyone down, told everyone to stay on their side of the court, and continued the game. Must have been a common occurrence there since they apparently had a system in place for this sort of thing.

How wonderfully christian!

@@mclark4978 it was definitely a common occurrence. And no one in the school's leadership have put an end to it because they're afraid to apply the morals they preach and ruffle an affluent parent's feathers.

Yeah it is clear there is a racial component to the whole thing. I think it has at least as much to do with being white as being Christian. It is about who has power and dos not. Who can be out in the open and who has to hide.

Because there is no racial component. That’s a lie put forth by the media. Stop watching fake news and start attending a good church (not a phony one, where there are no sincere Christians). You’ll find out first hand that “Conservative White Christians” are no different than any other race or political persuasion when it comes to accepting others into the Kingdom of God.

@@user-ub4lk3pf3w I do not associate white with power. As power is not exclusive to whites. I was making reference to the negative disposition that is often expressed against non-whites by the members of the Conservative White American Christian sector.

​​​@@cy8685There is a racist temperament within the Conservative White Christian Sector. This revelation didn't come from any "fake news" as you alleged. But from the very racist attitudes of those within that sector. They are not like other sectors of believers at all. They are not very accepting at all of other people, as your own belligerently prejudice response reveals. If you favor gerrymandering Black American voters, criminalizing the teaching of Black American history, police brutality against law-abiding Black citizens, and preventing Black citizens from filing racial discrimination lawsuits against companies that violated their civil rights, then you are obviously not accepting of everyone, and that unfortunately is the commonplace temperament that is often expressed by members of the Conservative White American Christian Sector.

🙄 Like I said, stop listening to fake news. You will find far less racism among White Christians than you do in many other sectors of life. Ironically for you, I currently attend a church, called Church for all Nations (CFAN), where has an extremely diverse congregation. It’s one of the things that attracted me to that ministry.

I can make fake, hyperbolic comments with no evidence also. Church attendance has sky rocketed. Real humans choose Christianity because everyone has beliefs regardless if you are a Christian or not.

1st your John Adams quote is taken out of context as most historians do today which changes the historical reference. Keep in mind, when historians and politicians say this country is not a Christian country and the founders were secular. Keep in mind The constitution was based on John Locke's Enlightenment philosophies and books of the Bible. If you cross check the Bill of Rights for example the 1st amendment was based from the book of Jerimiah word for word. The 2nd amendment was based from Isaiah. The declaration of independence if you read the grievance's they are titles of sermons given from 1760 to 1768. The very first congressional meeting was a bible study based on the Thirty Fifth Psalm and it is a matter of historical record. John Adams said in a letter to his wife Abigail, that the passage was so important that she should read it and share with her friends. Yes, the first motion in our 1st congress was to read Psalm 35 and it passed unanimously. That day turned into a bible study that lasted the day. The bible study was so successful that the second motion that passed was to open congress with a prayer. To say our country was not founded on Christianity is plain wrong. Historians and politicians need to put these quotes into their proper context but historians don't want to do that because it destroys their narrative.

@@alanking6240 If you wish to institute Sharia law for your family, go right ahead. I choose to keep religion away from my children, they know evil when they see it and do not need to be told to avoid it.

"Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us." (Romans 8:33-34) Sinners saved by grace judged by sinners who reject grace.

George Carlin said it best. If churches want to get involved in politics, they can pay the admission price like the rest of us.

I've been saying that for years, starting with the fact that they brought prayer into the government with prayer breakfast and Billy Graham. That was a republican thing the Democrats have never tried to shove religion into government or down America's throat. The very foundations of this nation are a national religion shall not be established or endorsed by government and allow every religion to flourish privately and do no harm to others. Take away their tax-exempt status I don't think any church should be so rich that their pastor has two private jets and a mansion. That's not religion. it's power, politics, and greed. 💙VOTE BLUE 💙

I wish this was brought up more. It seems so obvious, yet I never see news articles on removing tax exemptions with this constant political involvement.

correcτ! They become nothing more than lobbyists!

That was the whole point of the exemption; Control. If money is too important it remains a stumbling block to the message of the gospel. If the harvest is the focus then its a non-factor.

Zealousness is good, but when it lacks knowledge, it is tyrannical! Christians are truly the most despised people on the planet and many are looking for a savior in flesh and blood because it gives them comfort. However, our comfort is not to come from what is seen, but what is unseen. Those who seek truth by way of the Holy Spirit see past the rederick of all these political leaders and can see that it is all smoke and mirrors. The demise of this country has been calculated and formulated over decades, and these talking heads are all in it together! Those who say they follow Christ may have left a bad taste in your mouth, (I understand, I too, grew up in the Bible belt and didn't find the truth until I got out in the wilderness, so to speak), but don't allow the misunderstanding of some to influence you to rule out the possibility of Jesus actually being the truth, life, and way! Those who truly follow Him and understand His teachings are few and far between, but you can be one of them! It is definitely a straight and narrow road that few be upon, but when you know that you have the King of the Universe on your side, you'll know you are never alone!!! ❤

What do u know another lib, most likely white who would be appalled if someone “labeled” another person, post a comment full of hate, bigotry and labeling..

As an atheist that lives in the Bible belt too; I can tell you that the only problem I've ever had has been from other atheists that (just like Christians) pretend to have all the answers while mocking the other side. Like what you're doing right now.

Yes, there is hope. As a born again Christian who has plenty of questions, I am not a zealot. Nor am I a sheeple. I simply believe the Ten Commandments. No matter where you go in this world the basic tenants of the Commandments hold strong. And I believe Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. History proves He walked this earth, he was crucified, and all of His disciples died rather than deny Him. One need not be a zealot to believe that. Don’t you realize there will always be zealots in every shape and size (radical Islamic terrorists), sheeple (like the woke crowd needing to be coddled), judgmental atheists (thinking there is no god but cannot prove it), Satan worshippers, and everyone of them thinks they are right. Just like you do.

Funny…I have felt the most judged by atheists.

And that's exactly what Trump does ("praise God for personal gain). It's all show for his gain. "They will know we are Christians by our love", Scripture says. Where's the love in the Trump camp, where's the fruit of the Spirit? Trump has used the Church for his means, and he will eventually be accountable to the Lord.

It is a WAY OF MAKING FAST MONEY!!!…these men that call themselves Pastors, do not have to work., tax-free monies❤❤.and I love it.

It wouldn't be disgusting if they used their leverage for justice, helping the poor and most vulnerable, and loving the sojourner (foreigner living in your country!) as ourselves. If churches did that without seeking their own power and privilege, they would be a legitimate voice in the public square.

​@@MTMountainMan5411the climate change cult is extremely profitable.

You will not find that anywhere in the U.S. Constitution. Most of America's founding fathers were Christians, and were very political. Congress also approved of the Holy Bible to be taught in schools in the late 1780s, and it remained that way until the early 1960s, when the atheists got their way and had it removed from the public schools. Now, America's children are being taught the religion of evolution, which has turned them into animals.

Amen. Acronym for BIBLE is biblical instructions before leaving earth. Stay focused on the Lord. He will lead you into all truths. Give all the glory to God, not man. When you get to those pearly gates, you’re going to have to answer to Jesus Christ. You don’t want him to say, “I never knew you.”

Send us your term paper so that we may be enlightened ...pleaze

Same here. I have had to drop the "evangelical" label, even though I consider myself evangelical in the actual meaning of the word, because it is now a label and its meaning is loaded with much more than simply spreading the Gospel (which is its actual meaning). I call myself a Christian and I will even tell people I'm a Bible-believing Christian (even though that is actually redundant) but I avoid the word "evangelical" anymore. By your fruits you will know them and by their fruits we know what the "evangelicals" of today are really about.

So, what politician has no sin? Trump never claimed to be a Christian, but he does respect Jesus Christ, and the Bible, unlike the Democratic Party. The Dems won't allow "God" in the charter, and when someone mocks God, they laugh about it. The Democratic Party is the party of antichrists.

Church leaders need to spew it out for senile seniors like me….hard to read between the lines !

We’re here! It’s been a hard several years but I’m still hanging onto my faith. If there aren’t voices in your orbit that can critically speak about the folly of the Church and the cultural Right at the moment, I recommend most things being produced by Christianity Today who seem to have kept their head and integrity during this mania. (The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill and The Bulletin podcasts are excellent). I wish you only good things in your journey.

I hope there are fewer people like this guy! I pray that God raises up more people like Trump, who are countering the corruption in politics today. The church has been complacent, and mistakenly believed we shouldn’t be involved in politics. But every king and every judge in the Old Testament was both a political and religious leader. The Bible clearly teaches that society suffers when wickedness reigns and when the righteous aren’t in power.

I also went to a church that was extreme, and I find that the left in the United States to be more like them than the right. Evangelical leftists. Just different gods.

and crap

It's simple actually, Christianity completely destroys the human mind and renders it incapable of logic or critical thinking, and this is how we got the Trump cult

Actually, the constitution states Government cannot infringe on the church but any church can be part of the government.

The American Founding Fathers deemed *ALL* religions unfit for modern governance. _“The United States is not a Christian nation any more than it is a Jewish or Mohammedan Nation.”_ *- John Adams* (American statesman, attorney, diplomat, writer, Founding Father & 2nd president) The *1st Amendment's Establishment Clause* prohibits the government from making any law, _“respecting an establishment of religion.”_ This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion. *Constitution Article VI Supreme Law - Clause 3 Oaths of Office* _"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; _*_but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."_* This means nobody is ever required to swear on the Bible, or any other religious book for an oath of office. They may choose a religious book, but none is required. _“...the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion."_ *-Treaty of Tripoli - June 7, 1797. Signed by President John Adams & Ratified UNANIMOUSLY, by the Senate June 10, 1797* ....only a few times in history the Senate unanimously agreed on anything. A 2018 Supreme Court Ruling re-affirmed this statement, from The Treaty of Tripoli. *PETER CARL BORMUTH, Petitioner,* *V.* *COUNTY OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN Respondent* This Court also released an opinion on May 14, 2018 in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Assn., 584 U. S. (2018), Justice Thomas in his concurring opinion wrote: _"The Treaty of Tripoli was passed by the Senate and signed into law by President John Adams. As such, it is a "legislated text" which must be read "textually". _*_The lower courts in this case read a hypothetical legislative intention into the text by dismissing Article 11 as "a mere formality". The language itself makes a clear direct statement that our government is not based on the Christian religion_*_ and any attempt by a government official to represent our government as Christian contradicts the text and the historical understanding of our founders."_ _“This would be the best of all possible Worlds, if there were no Religion in it”_ *-John Adams* )Letter from John Adams to Thomas Jefferson, 19 April 1817) _"The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as his father, in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."_ *-Thomas Jefferson* (Letter from Jefferson to John Adams, 11 April 1823) _"The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason."_ *-Benjamin Franklin* (Poor Richard's Almanac) _“The study of theology, as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion....and as this is the case with Christian theology, it is therefore the study of nothing.”_ *― Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason (1794)*

Good for you. Thank God for having you see the evil in this unholy man trying to cause more division to our country.

Hey why you are not going to church 😢😢

It's a real real shame, the teachings of Christ are beautiful, would we all strive to uphold them...

🤭🤭

SOUNDS LIKE A PERSONAL PROBLEM

yes, i personally will not follow religous people that tell me how to vote or that take donations to make themselves rich. i guess that would be a personal problem@@DAVIDMAINORD

​@@DAVIDMAINORD🤡 😅😅😅

Why would anyone care if you are offended? People are concerned with how you convinced yourself that it mattered to anyone.

lol how are they nuts

You believed in edomites and their lies

they blinded by dogma

@peterhulse1064, How many have said that about the Reverend Jeremiah Wright? The Reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? We must remember our government is participatory, of, by and for the people. Our churches are full of people.

Totally agree with you.

Then we should vote for candidates who support dismantling the power structure and who support placing more constraints on what government can do.

Not in total agreement, but generally, yes!

The scripture does show it matters. Psalm 33 says; blessed be the people who god is the lord. Scripture also says that, when the wicked rule the righteous grieve. The New Testament tells us to pray for our leaders and to follow their laws. It stands to reason that in a democratic republic, we have a responsibility to be aware of who we cast our votes for and support so that we do not find ourselves in an Acts 5 situation where Peter said; “we will follow gods law not man’s.” Or even a Daniel situation where we are even symbolically thrown in the lions den for not bowing before the king.

@@Joshua_8277 the Bible also talks about seasoning your conversation with grace, not letting coarse or foolish conversation come from your mouth but only that which is edifying. Jesus stresses two things that a believer must do -- love the Lord our God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength and to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. If what we hear coming out of Evangelical circles is loving yourselves (which you need to be able do before you love other people), then that's a weird kind of love. Just sounds like a section of the American church has huge insecurity and self-esteem problems or are power-hungry, which is antithetical to the gospel. If it's self-esteem issues that the Evangelical church has then you can't give what you don't walk in yourself. If it's political power, then how does that align with the Beatitudes or the fruit of the Spirit?

John 17:16, Jesus urged his disciples to be no part of the world as he was no part of the then world. Jesus prayed to the poor and the lost, I can't recall he ever prayed for Ceasar or Herod. ✔

The Bible is a lie. End of.

​@@Joshua_8277 Hmm, I must have missed the part of the Beatitudes that says, "Blessed are they who get political power at all costs."

Christians already pay taxes. When an atheist pushes their religion, they should have to pay more taxes!

Tax the rich⚖️

@god_laughs_at_atheists6928 - That's your opinion.

@@georl1 America's founding fathers were very religious. *And it's not an opinion that Congress approved of the Holy Bible to be taught in the schools in the last 1780s* and it stayed that way until the early 1960s, when the atheists got their way and had it removed. Now, evolution is turning our children into animals instead of lovers of God.

If churches want to be delving in politics then THEY NEED TO BE TAXED!!! ALSO would that INCLUDE ALL religions or just the ones you deem fit?!?@god_laughs_at_atheists6928

whoops - you slipped up there - there are NO deities. Never have been. Don't be delusional thinking there is a deity. It distorts your view of reality.

@@nonya.bizness - Amen to that.

That is why the American Founding Fathers deemed *ALL* religions unfit for modern governance. _“The United States is not a Christian nation any more than it is a Jewish or Mohammedan Nation.”_ *- John Adams* (American statesman, attorney, diplomat, writer, Founding Father & 2nd president) The *1st Amendment's Establishment Clause* prohibits the government from making any law, _“respecting an establishment of religion.”_ This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion. *Constitution Article VI Supreme Law - Clause 3 Oaths of Office* _"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; _*_but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."_* This means nobody is ever required to swear on the Bible, or any other religious book for an oath of office. They may choose a religious book, but none is required. _“...the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion."_ *-Treaty of Tripoli - June 7, 1797. Signed by President John Adams & Ratified UNANIMOUSLY, by the Senate June 10, 1797* ....only a few times in history the Senate unanimously agreed on anything. A 2018 Supreme Court Ruling re-affirmed this statement, from The Treaty of Tripoli. *PETER CARL BORMUTH, Petitioner,* *V.* *COUNTY OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN Respondent* This Court also released an opinion on May 14, 2018 in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Assn., 584 U. S. (2018), Justice Thomas in his concurring opinion wrote: _"The Treaty of Tripoli was passed by the Senate and signed into law by President John Adams. As such, it is a "legislated text" which must be read "textually". _*_The lower courts in this case read a hypothetical legislative intention into the text by dismissing Article 11 as "a mere formality". The language itself makes a clear direct statement that our government is not based on the Christian religion_*_ and any attempt by a government official to represent our government as Christian contradicts the text and the historical understanding of our founders."_ _“This would be the best of all possible Worlds, if there were no Religion in it”_ *-John Adams* )Letter from John Adams to Thomas Jefferson, 19 April 1817) _"The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as his father, in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."_ *-Thomas Jefferson* (Letter from Jefferson to John Adams, 11 April 1823) _"The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason."_ *-Benjamin Franklin* (Poor Richard's Almanac) _“The study of theology, as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion....and as this is the case with Christian theology, it is therefore the study of nothing.”_ *― Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason (1794)*

Remove the Tax Exempt Status of American Churches and fund Education! End the cults of proud ignorance, gullibility, violence, hate, and tRump!

Thank you for articulating this so well. The evangelicals are making a devil's bargain by supporting Trump. Trump couldn't care less about their "Christian values" and he will happily throw them under the bus when it suits his purposes.

BLAH BLAH BLAH "LOOK AT ME I SAID CHURCH AND STATE SHOULD NOT BE SOMETHING SOMETHING.. LOOK AT ME GO "WOKE"".

Thanks for referencing the Bormuth case. I was not aware of it and that is my home town!

@@robinbrown7953 What a bunch of reductive nonsense.

What about Bidenomics leading us into economic slavery. Come people wake to the fruits of the tree.

I was told Kenneth Copeland spoke at a Trump rally in 2022 in PA. I had friends that are his 'partners'. I didn't believe it but found it on youtube myself and watched it. 'You'll always be MY president' he said to Trump. 'This man always brought the red, white and blue to the oval office." Even after J6 and all his vengeance rhetoric and hateful words and lies Copeland and his followers still support him. I deleted a lot of contacts that day.

@@jetsamperes5762 Easy to spot the Quitters. Just more people for Trump to put in our Gulags in 2025. He needs cheap labor to make MAGA hats and MAGA t-shirts.

And don't forget their insatiable greed.

@irisbjones There are those churches out there for sure. Luckily, I grew up in a church that had good parishioner controls over the finances. You need to get skeptical if the numbers are not being published regularly, and they don't let you sit in on the counting of coin

Yes, the marriage made in hell between the GOP neocons and the religious right in the 1990's generated a great deal of evil, culminating in Traitor Trump.

money & power thats all it is

Yeah I attribute the MEGA churches to the downfall of So called Christian faith.@@irisbjones

I too struggled with my Christianity watching MAGA televangelist discard and mock the teachings of Christ while worshiping mean spirited Trump.

I left my church, but I joined another denomination! 🙏🏿

The Bible is full of politics - and God's hand in politics. Churches MUST be involved in guiding their members to vote biblically! Churches used to be involved in every aspect of our lives... but the IRS scared them into submission regarding politics when they made churches become 501 (c) (3) entities... which PROHIBITS them from being political. It's called critical thinking... do you see how Christians were tricked into believing that church and politics don't mix? Another lie from Big Brother!! And YOU are the ones who don't see the truth any more!

It's obvious you are anti Trump!!. I support Trump as a Catholic

Not so much under the surface. It's been there all along lynching black people on Sunday morning after worship. Children lifted high on shoulders, as they tortured, mutilated, burnt and hanged. Why do you lot refuse to acknowledge your history, even the modern history that took place in my lifetime. And I'm not yet considered a senior citizen!

They've been heading in this direction since the 60s. I watched the church where I grew up in the 70s transform before my eyes. By the end of the 80s, this little "red letter" teaching church grew into a megachurch and moved away from the red letters and onto to letters of Paul, the Old Testament, and thinly veiled politics. Rarely did they teach Jesus' words anymore except for key verses like John 3:16. I think it is good thing that the thin veil has been tossed aside.

I SEARCHED AND AEARCHED AND SEARCHED. YET NO WHERE DOES IT SAY THAT ANYWHERE IN ANY TEACHINGS FROM EVANGELICALS. YOU ARE A "WOKE" BIT.

You are absolutely right. Work out your faith with fear and trembling. Check yourself, word, and actions against the Word. Salvation is worked out in an active relationship with Jesus.

​@fkutube933 Apparently, you haven't searched using the right keywords. Try Calvanism vs. Non Calvanism which is to what the person posting is referring. It is one of the most (if not THE most important) doctrine of belief that separates one denomination from another amongst Protestants. And to the poster's opinion if one believes in predestination they absolutely may have a different attitude towards sin and forgiveness than someone who believes they can lose their salvation. Enough with the overused "woke" and read some of the books instead of burning them. When I went to seminary we had to read hundreds and hundreds of other books besides the Bible alone and you can't walk into, or through, a Christian bookstore without tripping over displays of other books that "teach." So learn on your own besides drinking the Kool-Aid of the guy in the pulpit or on the TV screen..."Wake", if you will.

@@MTMountainMan5411 Calvinism is rather like being given a 'Get out of gaol free' card in a game of transcendental monopoly. Doesn't quite work like that.

When in fact, is a case of: I have been saved, I am saved, I am being saved and I will be saved. You deeds/acts still count!

"pleased to meet you, won't you guess my name? But what's bugging you is the nature of my game."

Complete BS...the danger to our democratic values are those who want to paint half of our country as a danger to democratic values.

Amen!

There is an interpretation that says the separation of church and state simply means that the state is to not have an official church that requires anyone’s attendance and/or support. It does not mean that the values found within the Bible should be ignored when choosing who shall rule over a nation. I genuinely don’t understand thinking that Christians shouldn’t have any type of say or influence in who rules over them. The Bible says when the wicked rule the righteous grieve. If we are given the freedom and right to vote, it stands to reason we should vote and support people who align with our beliefs. Not trying to argue or come off as disrespectful. This belief that Christian’s shouldn’t influence who rules over them is just something that baffles me.

@@Joshua_8277 I'm not Christian, and I certainly believe that everyone including Christians have the right to follow their beliefs when choosing a leader. My issue, and I believe many people's, is that they chose Trump in order to impose their beliefs on the rest of us. (Such as getting Roe v Wade overturned, which Trump took credit for, now is not mentioning it because he knows it was an unpopular decision.). And has been discussed, how can they say they are following their beliefs when Trump embodies everything they are supposedly against? It is all for the power, not for Jesus.

I stand for the separation of Church and State, and the reason that I stand for that is the same reason that I believe our forefathers did. It is not there to protect religion from the grasp of government but to protect our government from the grasp of religious fanaticism.@@Joshua_8277

Yeah it is cool to have your hometown represented. I pass by cornerstone multiple times a month. My family still attends. His dad was a good man.

​​@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Neither. What happened to "love thy neighbor"?

​@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Your brand of Christianity claims it's a sin, mine doesn't. Jesus never mentioned it, although it was rampant in the Roman Empire. In any case, it's not the business of the state to forbid sin. Or do you want the cops to shoot your neighbor who breaks the sabbath by working in his yard and cusses when he cuts his finger on a rosebush? Shall we reintroduce public stoning as in the times of theocratic rule in Israel?

​@@B_BodziakYou have to love your neighbor as Jesus loves you. It's not unconditional. And neighbor means fellow Christian not just anybody. It means being willing to die as Christ did for you, not taking a casserole next door.
