That's my primary beef with religion. It's tautological. Our religion is right. How do you know that? It says so in our book. How do you know your book is right? Faith. How do you know your faith is warranted? It says so in our book. Ok then.
That's a good question. I've seen progressive folks on this forum and shaggy say how they detest her. I've never understood the animus towards her. She's a centrist corporatist pragmatist by any political standard. I'm more to the left of her, but I don't hate her for that. I've heard people say she has no convictions. Ok, fair enough. But that's every politician. The only obvious explanation is misogyny. If not that, what about her explains the hate?

The Holland Hotel bar in Alpine is legit and you should definitely do a tour of Big Bend Brewery in Alpine. Awesome beer and you'll leave in a very happy state of mind.
