A couple of quotes from the article. _My goal in doing is to truly be the hands and feet of Jesus. I truly want to help people. And I want to get them off all the crap the the healthcare system puts them on._ _Records show the woman’s blood sugar levels repeatedly between 300 and 500 in the several weeks leading up to her death, several times higher than the normal level which is 140 or below. But Sheehan told investigators that she believed older people should have higher blood sugar than young people and that she didn’t care “what Joe Biden says” with his strict criteria._ ---

Have you not seen the ancient video? Each step he takes, there is a fine stream of water squirts up about 3 or 4 feet, but he goes quickly to the other foot in order to stay up. It is quite the thing to watch, but he had very big feet, so that made it a little easier for him. ---

I’ve been very interested in religion my entire life. This is the first time I’ve ever heard “be the feet of Jesus”. I have absolutely no idea how to even begin parsing that. But I’m willing to bet she’s got the wrong idea of what “being the hands of Jesus” means. Right now the only way her hands is like His is hers has blood on them. ---
