Not sick or mentally ill.
Evil.
I refuse to attribute active evil actions to something a person cannot help, like illness.
“They’ve got the easiest guy on the planet to poke fun at for their skits, but won’t dare go there … Norm Macdonald sure as hell would.”
Really. There’s a stumbling, sleeping, farting, crapping himself, stuttering President destroying the country in less than a year and almost all the jokes are about Republicans. There’ll never be another Norm Macdonald on SNL who would constantly poke liberals to the silence or even boos from the Manhattan audience. He would even mock the Clintons with Vincent Foster jokes.
Does anyone know what liberals find so fascinating about stripper poles? Their women climb them in their homes.
Well keep turning them other cheeks then... and don’t complain - after all it’s God’s will.
So what do you propose people do about it?
Exactly what do you think not turning the other cheek looks like?
Complain?
Write a strongly worded letter?
Boycott something we don’t support anyway?
Go shoot the place up?
Do you honestly think they will care if Christians complain? That’s blood in the water to folks like that. That would be its own reward and only encourage more of the same because then they would know that they got you. And that’s what they are looking for.
Trying to get people talking and maybe to watch their stupidity.
Remember the Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Tournament sketch from the 70's?
“They’ve got the easiest guy on the planet to poke fun at for their skits, but won’t dare go there“
They’re sure do! Plugs supplies them with an inexhaustible about of comedy material.. a veritable gold mine, but nope.. Communist agenda first!
One has to have very low standards even to tune to Saturday Night Live no humor just pimping stupidity and the lefts agenda.
Typical Hollywood go along to get along to keep a job sucking up gives pay check.
If these people do not repent they will have an extremely unpleasant encounter with Almighty God on the day of judgment.
Sin angers Him on general principle but this sin is especially hateful to Him and is expressly singled out for an exceptionally severe judgment.
Matt. 18:6 and Luke 17:2
Moderna, Phizer, Glaxo-Smith Kline.
“Do you honestly think they will care if Christians complain?”
They seem to care a whole lot when Muslims “complain”. Why do you think that is?
Seems like the muslims have only one cheek and get really pissed when somebody slaps it.
So looks like Christians have two choices - keep turning their inexhaustible supply of other cheeks and meekly allow them to get slapped, or two, go postal.
Do you have a third choice?
“Not anywhere in the Bible that I’ve read.”
And by the way, does God say anywhere in the bible that you should NOT help yourself?
No necessarily but many people quote that phrase as if it is Scripture, and it’s not.
That doesn’t answer the question.
Unless by using the example of muslims you are implying we should be going out and beheading those who mock God.
So, what do you propose we do about it?
They do stuff like this to get our goat, to get a rise out of us. That is a reward to them and you are proposing giving them exactly what they are looking for, which will only encourage more of it.
Now, I’m with you that Christians have too often rolled over and exposed their jugular. The church as a whole has allowed itself to be conned into letting evil define the terms and set the narrative and failed to speak up for fear of them not thinking well of us, which they never will.
We have failed to stand up to the pro-abortionists and the homosexual cabal. We have kept silent while our country has been destroyed before our eyes, but there is a time and place for letting God deal with things and this is one of them. Ignoring them IMO, is the quickest way to curtail their behavior. Since they are simply looking for attention, then it’s the last thing they should get.
Besides, turning the other cheek is for personal insults against us and that is up to the individual to decide.
So your suggested Christian response to their actions is………?
“No necessarily but many people quote that phrase as if it is Scripture, and it’s not.”
And many so called Christians use that as an excuse to do nothing and let God deal with it. It’s a lazy man’s out - of “washing their hands” of any responsibility, while sounding pious. Probably cowardly as well.
Waiting for an answer…..
WOW, waiting for something FUNNY to be reported about that pornography.
There is NOTHING FUNNY IN THAT SHOW.
There are NO FUNNY ACTORS on that show.
Think I’ll send this critique to the NYT.
“They do stuff like this to get our goat, to get a rise out of us. That is a reward to them and you are proposing giving them exactly what they are looking for, which will only encourage more of it.”
Really? I don’t see them doing “more of it” to Muslims. Why do you think that is? They don’t dare mock Mohammad or Allah because they know what will happen to them.
Whereas mocking Christians and their God and prophets is a walk in the park, a fun, and recreational sport with no consequences. And as long as Christians lie down and take it, they’ll keep dishing it out. Don’t you think?
“So your suggested Christian response to their actions is………?”
Do what has proven to work - terrorize your tormentors the way muslims have done. But that’s easier said than done. They have armies of believers willing to sacrifice their lives for what they believe. There are no Christians willing to do that. Instead they prefer taking the easy and convenient way out while sounding oh so pious, saying “God will take care of them”. An act worthy of Pontius Pilate
“Now, I’m with you that Christians have too often rolled over and exposed their jugular. The church as a whole has allowed itself to be conned into letting evil define the terms and set the narrative and failed to speak up for fear of them not thinking well of us, which they never will.

Totally agree, and continue doing more of the same. it didn’t use to be like that. There was a time when there were true Christians warriors, crusaders, willing to defend the faith - not anymore.
