"Early primers for learning how to read included the 10 Commandments... but in 1980, someone had a problem with it and raised it to the Supreme Court, which ruled that the 10 Commandments should not be part of the public space. Now there's something really critically missing now," said Ed Van Buskirk, the Founder and President of If U Love Me, a Catholic apostolate dedicated to teaching the wisdom of the Ten Commandments. "Now in our culture, we don't know the truth of God's moral laws. They've been pushed to the side and we look around and say we need something to tell us what is right and wrong so, in our mere human wisdom...relativism has become the order of the day and it's caused a lot of hardship, division and isolation. It leads us away from God." Van Buskirk is the author of the book and video course on the Ten Commandments, God's Recipe for a Wonderful Life and creator of the “God's Recipe for School and Family,” a program that teaches the Ten Commandments to school children and their families. He speaks nationwide and has been featured at the Kansas City-St. Joseph diocesan Eucharistic Congress. He also has written numerous articles that have appeared in Catholic Exchange.

Looking ahead to the spring and some new-to-me routes that can check some 2022 goal boxes! This episode, we take a look at filling in an important part of a segment-by-segment ride across country between Dayton, OH and St. Louis, MO. Will this be the one? Route Scouting Dayton to St. Louis This goes back to the before times... piecing together a cross-country ride in segments. 2019: DC to Cincinnati (passed through Xenia, OH near Dayton) 2018: Kansas City - St. Louis via the Katy Trail The gap in between... Dayton to St. Louis will get me contiguous ride from DC to KC, which leaves a really interesting segment or two to get to the west coast. So why not make that happen?   The route Eastern Express? Pro's - it's scouted, has great cue sheets Con's - not the most exciting route - focuses on flat and low traffic Another route? Google maps? I might do this to supplement an alternate route   Logistics Direct flights from DCA to Dayton Tag the OTET, then turn west Emphasis on camping (perhaps stealth) EE route goes through some towns with roofed lodging, but not many   Bike Definitely would use the full sized bike Fully loaded   Camping I'd rely a lot on the excellent work done by Frank Moritz (Pedalshift Project 079) When I've gone through the cue sheets before, I've found some of the camping to be only so-so I'd almost assuredly mix in some stealth camping - I've had good luck in parks with wooded fringes, but there's a lot of options Would probably try to find my way to a St Louis hotel with a shuttle to the airport to allow for a more casual pack up   Time of year Spring seems like a better bet Summer = muggy/hot/exposed   What this gets me The next ride would be KC to Ft. Collins, CO The ride after that would be Ft. Collins to Boise The segment after that is Boise to Portland? Maybe!   Pedalshift Society As always we like to close out the show with a special shoutout to the Pedalshift Society!
