Illness is the night side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place.

A person can be recognized or granted citizenship on a number of bases. Usually citizenship based on circumstances of birth is automatic, but an application may be required.
Citizenship by birth (jus sanguinis).
Born within a country (jus soli). Some people are automatically citizens of the state in which they are born. Most countries in the Americas grant unconditional jus soli citizenship, while it has been limited or abolished in almost all other countries.
Citizenship by marriage (jus matrimonii).
Naturalization. States normally grant citizenship to people who have entered the country legally and been granted permit to stay, or been granted political asylum, and also lived there for a specified period. In some countries, naturalization is subject to conditions which may include passing a test demonstrating reasonable knowledge of the language or way of life of the host country, good conduct (no serious criminal record) and moral character (such as drunkenness, or gambling), vowing allegiance to their new state or its ruler and renouncing their prior citizenship. Some states allow dual citizenship and do not require naturalized citizens to formally renounce any other citizenship.
Citizenship by investment or Economic Citizenship. Wealthy people invest money in property or businesses, buy government bonds or simply donate cash directly, in exchange for citizenship and a passport.

The Dakota 38 refers to thirty-eight Dakota men who were executed by hanging, under orders from President Abraham Lincoln. To date, this is the largest “legal” mass execution in US history. The hanging took place on December 26, 1862—the day after Christmas. This was the same week that President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

These amended and broken treaties are often referred to as the Minnesota Treaties. The word Minnesota comes from mni, which means water; and sota, which means turbid. Synonyms for turbid include muddy, unclear, cloudy, confused, and smoky. Everything is in the language we use.

Without money, store credit, or rights to hunt beyond their ten-mile tract of land, Dakota people began to starve. The Dakota people were starving. The Dakota people starved. In the preceding sentence, the word “starved” does not need italics for emphasis.
--
Dakota warriors organized, struck out, and killed settlers and traders. This revolt is called the Sioux Uprising. Eventually, the US Cavalry came to Mnisota to confront the Uprising. More than one thousand Dakota people were sent to prison. As already mentioned,“Real” poems do not “really” require words.

I am a citizen of the United States and an enrolled member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, meaning I am a citizen of the Oglala Lakota Nation—and in this dual citizenship, I must work, I must eat, I must art, I must mother, I must friend, I must listen, I must observe, constantly I must live.

Dual citizenship has become increasingly widespread today as migration levels have increased. For many people who travel or have family in different countries, having multiple passports is a great convenience. But if one takes national identity seriously, it is a rather questionable practice. Different nations have different identities and different interests that can engender potentially conflicting allegiances. The most obvious problem involves military service: if the two countries of which one is a citizen go to war with each other, one’s loyalties are automatically in question.

Christian citizenship has an agenda and it is not the same as the agenda of the state, even though our dual citizenship requires that we be a part of the wider community. Jesus reminded his disciples that their loyalty should not be to the empire or to the rebels. They were to be loyal to God’s garden social imaginary of compassion and expansive familial faithfulness.

Billy Graham (Billy graham in quotes)
“
The binary of illness/wellness is always porous, whether or not we notice. In Illness as Metaphor, Susan Sontag wrote, “Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick.” I used to believe Sontag uncritically. Now I know that the two kingdoms don’t exist; it’s one kingdom, in a quantum state. We are all constantly both sick and well, sick/well, sick and well both, our body and immune system in conversation with a world rich in microbes, viruses, and bacteria, almost all of them either benign or beneficial, countless microbes in me here as I write and in you there as you read. The quantum state of sick/well. Let me take cancer, that disease so long synonymous with death. Cancer is not a binary. We’re willing to acknowledge this, but only when one has already crossed over into the sick category. Cancer has stages. Stage 1 cancer is still small, mostly easily treatable; stage 4 cancer is aggressive, malignant, deadly. Many prostate cancers require no intervention at all. They are subclinical. We live with them until something else kills us. Cancer is not black and white but gray, and further, there is no white to begin with. There is no absence of cancer as long as we have a body. We make cancerous cells every day our cells divide, which is to say every day. In order to keep living, and keep making—for example—new skin to push the outside world out, our cells have to divide. With each cell division, a cell will make mutations. Mutations are the raw material of cancer. Carcinogens and sunlight cause cancer because they cause mutations and damage to our DNA. But without cell division, no life. To risk cancer, to make it day by day, is to live. The absence of cancer is death. So cancerous cells are a normal part of life. In the popular imagination, we see the immune system as mainly protecting us from infectious disease, from bacteria and viruses. But just as importantly, our immune system protects us against cancer, the cells in our own body that mutate to become other, to pose a threat. At almost 40, I’ve certainly had cancerous cells in me, cells that mutate so they can divide and divide and divide. It’s my immune system that finds those cells and kills them so that I, a whole organism, can survive. But because I don’t have cancer doesn’t mean I haven’t had a cancer cell in me. I have, and survived it, so far.

As I worked, I thought about the fairies. They were different from the vampires and the Weres. Fairies could escape and go to their very own world, however that happened. It was a world I had no desire to visit or see. Fairies had never been human. At least vampires might remember what being human was like, and Weres were human most of the time, even if they had a different culture; being a Were was like having dual citizenship, I figured. This was an important difference between the fairies and other supernaturals, and it made the fairies more frightening.

Free will means people have the ability to comply with authority or defy authority. This ability - to comply with authority or defy authority - is highly valued by God.

Moving a “consensus point” closer to your “optimal point” can only be accomplished by changing the culture of the group seeking consensus. This shift cannot be accomplished politically or by force; it can only happen as each individual moves closer to the same worldview. From the perspective of a Christian, it can only be accomplished as each individual agrees more closely with the will of God.

Foreign nationals are prohibited from contributing to Senate races, but, according to the Dallas Morning News, during the 2015–16 election season, Ukrainian-born oligarch Leonard “Len” Blavatnik, who has British-American dual citizenship, put a small fraction of his $ 20 billion fortune into GOP Senate races. McConnell, who took $ 2.5 million for his GOP Senate Leadership Fund from two of Blavatnik’s companies, was the leading recipient. Others included political action committees for Senator Marco Rubio, Senator Lindsey Graham, Ohio governor John Kasich, and Arizona senator John McCain.

I do not think I will be in love again in my life, except with you. These are honest words.” And they were. His anxiety about the long separation from JP seemed to intensify during the affair with Arthur, especially after he decided that Arthur wanted him only for sex. “I’m still very much in love with Jean Pierre,” he wrote in his journal near the end of May. “I still desire the chance to leave here and live with him in Paris. Jean Pierre was the first man to be completely relaxed and loving with me. Unafraid of my personality or my creative movements. There was room with him to love and live and grow and change. Time has put a distance between us. And my meeting Arthur filled up that kind of empty space.”
Ever since David left Paris, he and JP had tried to figure out some way to get back together. Like dual citizenship—which would have allowed David to work in France but would also require his mandatory service in its military. Then there was the idea of entering a French university, but David didn’t have the money. That May, they had one last pipe dream between them: David would get a position with UNESCO. Jean Pierre knew a woman who worked there and she promised to help, but David had none of the skills or education the agency required.
It would have been easy to lose touch completely. David still had no telephone. Letters usually took about a week to arrive and sometimes as long as three. But now that David finally had some income, he hoped to visit France in August. He and JP had, of course, not seen each other since the previous August.

In many ways, those who pursue ordination take the easy way out. They choose a prescribed role that seems to meet all the requirements, and take up full-time residence in the church. They forgo the hard work of straddling two different worlds, while those they serve have no such luxury. Those in the pulpit may know where they belong, but the people in the pews hold dual citizenship.

I have learned that people with dual citizenship tend to become a problem in one of the countries they hold citizenship for. They misbehave, engage in mischievous antics, causing chaos and mayhem. They become destroyers and are divisive, causing division. They destroy or start fires, knowing they can run away if the country burns. They are always at the forefront of destroying a country, knowing they have a second home if the country they are in is destroyed. They are not patriotic but are always problematic and forever ungrateful.

As someone with dual citizenship in both the United States and France, I never expected to find myself in the middle of a credit card fraud situation, but that’s exactly what happened on January 25, 2025. I discovered that my credit card had been used for $6,700 worth of unauthorized purchases. The moment I realized what had happened, I felt a mix of shock and frustration. The charges were all unfamiliar, and I had no idea how someone had gotten access to my account. I immediately contacted Bank of America , hoping for a quick resolution. Unfortunately, I was told that the bank couldn’t assist me right away and that I would need to wait for an investigation, which could take several weeks. This was especially frustrating since the amount stolen was significant. I felt completely helpless, knowing I had to wait without knowing how long it would take to get my money back. Determined to act quickly, I searched for other options and came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery, a company that specializes in tracing fraudulent transactions and recovering stolen funds. After reading positive reviews and seeing their success in handling cases like mine, I decided to reach out. Their team responded quickly, and within no time, they began investigating the transactions. Digital Tech Guard Recovery worked fast, using advanced tracking methods to trace the fraudulent purchases back to a specific merchant. They had the expertise to follow the digital trail of the transactions and pinpoint where the funds had gone. Throughout the entire process, I was kept informed and updated regularly, which gave me peace of mind during a very stressful time. Thanks to Digital Tech Guard Recovery, I was able to recover my $6,700 much faster than I would have with the bank’s standard investigation process. They worked closely with legal teams and authorities in both the U.S. and France to ensure that the funds were recovered. The entire process took just a few weeks, which felt like a miracle compared to the bank's suggested timeline. In the end, I am incredibly grateful for Digital Tech Guard Recovery’s quick and professional response. They helped me recover my stolen funds and provided me with the support I needed during a challenging situation. If you ever find yourself in a similar predicament, I highly recommend their services they truly know how to get results when it matters most.

Third-party wallets are a great way to get around Binance's staking rules that need verification. SafePal has a decentralized Binance version with easier verification for staking crypto. A user shared: "I did the KYC with Binance successfully in Canada. Then transferred some crypto from my closed Binance earn to SafePal and staked it again there".
Some users with restricted access have found legal ways to use Binance services. The platform blocks certain countries mainly when users try to verify with documents from those places. People with dual citizenship or residency in allowed countries can legally register using those credentials.
Users should know the difference between legal methods and banned ones. Some forums talk about VPNs or fake documents, but these break Binance's rules and maybe laws. The exchange uses AI and data tools to catch these tricks, which can get accounts blocked.
Binance has put a lot into following rules. About 25% of its 6,000 workers now handle verification and compliance. This change cut fraud by 85% since 2023, making it harder to break the rules.
Smart users focus on understanding verification levels and what they can do at each step. Simple account checks need just your name, birth date, and address, giving access to basic features. Middle-level verification wants selfies and ID photos but gives you higher withdrawal limits and full access.
