Big, bad Donald. President Bone Spurs is such a brave, strong guy!
-
The beginning of a wave.
-
Well, if ignorance is bliss, some folks are already in their own personal heaven...or so they think. Sad.
-
True that is, Truth is That. Evolution - or any scientifically proven fact, for that matter - does not replace free will. Nor does one's belief in a loving God replace one's own free will. We are free to believe - as a few people still do - tha…

No, pride is stubbornly refusing to accept facts and scientific evidence and turning people away from church because they believe the Bible is the revealed word of God, not a science textbook.
-
The Bible is the story of God's love for his people. It is certainly not an up-to-date science textbook, as you seem to think it is. Your confusion about this is a major reason why so many educated people do not go to church any more. And that is …
-
Nonsense, TruthisNotThat. Evolution is a proven scientific fact accepted by serious scientists and intellectually honest Christians everywhere. Take you head out of the sand and accept reality as it is, not as you want it to be in order to fit you…

Nothing will happen as long as the COFA money keeps flowing. 2023, however, might be another story.

Finally a topic relevant to micronesia!

I've had many opportunities to chew but have successfully resisted all of them...so far. It's one addiction I definitely do not need.

LOL Perhaps you put that wad in the wrong orifice.
-
Touche, Ocean Dot. Aliens have hijacked this forum.
-
That's why so many COFA citizens are fleeing to the U.S. now while the no-visa, Compact lifeline is still valid.
-
Maybe the Japanese are smarter now than they were in 1941 when they started a war with the U.S......and lost. We shall see.
-
Marshallese certainly used navigational stick charts, primarily for teaching purposes. I have never heard that Polynesians used stick charts. Did they?

"Very few countries have gone as far as to declare bitcoin illegal. That does not, however, mean that bitcoin is "legal tender" – so far, only Japan has gone as far as to give bitcoin that designation. However, just because something isn't legal t…

The RMI SOV is not backed by the U.S. dollar. U.S. dollars are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government. SOV's are not backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. government. The RMI plan is to use both the SOV and the …

Remember when Trump said he wouldn't have time to golf as president?

Bitcoin is the greatest scam in history It’s a colossal pump-and-dump scheme, the likes of which the world has never seen. By Bill Harris, former CEO of Intuit and founding CEO of PayPal and Personal Capital. Apr 24, 2018 I’m tired of saying, “B…

Caveat emptor.

All the 12 apostles were Jewish. So was Jesus.

"Local weather observers at both Kwajalein and Majuro have reported haze at the airports today," said the Guam weather office. "This haze is expected to spread farther westward and reach Kosrae, Pohnpei and possibly Chuuk (in the Federated States o…

And the history of Christianity and Islam, both of which have deep historical roots in Jerusalem.

Guam and American Samoa have not requested statehood. Puerto Rico is waiting for Congress to act on their application.

You got me, Grim Reaper. You are such a brilliant mind reader! LOL

Buy them SOV's. Then let us know how it turns out for you.

"There are enough bonds of friendship, mutual need, mutual inspiration, mutual respect among the leadership of the Trust Territory and other adjacent countries to allow cooperation in many matters. It is not a continuation of a trusteeship situation…

The U.S. dollar circulates in every country in the world. However the RMI is the only country in the world to make its cryptocurrency, called the SOV, the nation’s official legal tender. An initial RMI coin offering was supposed to be launched soo…

Which woman president? What country are you talking about? Why vote for a man president if the only thing he cares about is money, power ?
-
How is the RMI plan "backed up" by the U.S. dollar? The U.S. has not even recognized the SOV.
-
How would FSM - not just the U.S.- benefit from a renewed compact? More money and continued dependence?
-
The U.S. has nothing to do with RMI's digital currency plan. In fact, the U.S. recommended against it.
-
What would FSM want from the U.S. if there was a renegotiation of the Compact? What would FSM offer the U.S. in return?

HM (Hospital Corpsman) Gwendelynn Lukan of the Federated States of Micronesia: “I can help serve this country for all the good stuff they’re doing,” she said about being a part of the Navy. “I’m proud to call myself an American." https://www.nbcco…

Any 2018 updates? Is the money being spent?
-
Go for it. And good luck to you. I'm content with U.S. dollars.

After a recent International Monetary Fund (IMF) team visit, the IMF has advised the RMI to reconsider it's digital currency plans. “The team discussed the authorities’ plan to issue a decentralized sovereign digital currency (“the SOV”) as a sec…

visafree, you nailed it, my friend. Nearly every high-level government official in Micronesia has a Plan B for themselves for that time when easy living becomes unsustainable at home. As long as there is an airport and a seaport, the privileged ha…

With or without casinos, the future looks grim.
-
Yes, in the beginning God created Chuuk. If you don't believe me you can look it up in the first chapter of Genesis.
-
All airlines charge a lot because it is expensive to send a dead body by air cargo. That is why more and more people are now hand-carrying the cremated remains of their loved ones. It is sanitary and affordable.
-
RMI legalized casinos in the 1990's. The announced goal was to help the economy by attracting wealthy tourists. It was a disastrous and short-lived experiment. No hotel or casino was ever built and no tourists ever came. Instead, on every payday,…

Do Micronesians abandon all their culture/customs when they move to the U.S.? Or do they bring them with them and integrate their culture and customs into their new home?
-
And even if Micronesia somehow decided to cooperatively seek U.S. statehood, the U.S. is unlikely to seriously consider such a request. China, on the other hand, would be delighted to replace the U.S. here....under their conditions, of course.
