On use of the term "ginger": "People who have red hair aren't a race, so no, it isn't racist. Plus, gingers always get butthurt over everything, even though they have no souls.". Are you "Ginger-haired" or "a Ginger? Is there a difference? One is descriptive, but the other implies more, doesn't it? Through rhetoric, God supported capitali...

Sunday, April 07, 2013. Political Agenda of "Redeemer Historians" in North Carolina. There’s a lot of mystery associated with the Lower Cape Fear.
