Americans still have a dim sense of their history, and stupidity like this can’t heap up forever without collapsing of its own weight and weakness.
Concur entirely. Yet, what was it Churchill said about fighting and when to begin? Seems to me we agree we are past the point of being able to win but nevertheless we must still fight.
“In truth, demonizing women is a good way to keep them out, and keeps up demand for foreign workers.”
Oh spare us. No one is demonizing women. Go hijack some other thread.
"Be Evil to those who disagree with you."
"Do the Right Thing only to people who agree with you."
kaepernick parallel.
intersting point, had not thought of that but its valid.
japanese proverb:
the nail that stands up will be hammered down....
When Christ ceases to be hypothetical to Christians is when we will see the curses beaten back and the blessings begin.
Like you, I have been pondering this all for decades. Seems to me when you peel the onion enough to get down to it where we lost the struggle was years ago when we accepted the false wisdom of “responsible reproduction” and limited ourselves to “replacement procreation” and only had 2 children per family. While we were being “responsible” the Thrid World was reproducing like rabbits on resources WE sent them as “charity”.
IOW, we lost the struggle decades ago. Had we listened to our God’s instructions from the Bible and reproduced accordingly many of the problems we face would not have happened.
It’s not the sort of demonization that our dear liberals theorize, however. It’s the demonization of presuming they must, must be man-haters.
Simply permitting it to happen and not regarding it as a curse would have helped immensely. It isn’t necessary for every family to look like the Duggars here. The Brady Bunch is quite enough.
It's amazing how poorly the ideas of elementary statistics are understood, in particular, mean and variance.
When time allows, individuals should be evaluated for who they are, and what their capabilities are. But, when you are making population level decisions, you have to take population characteristics into account, or you waste a lot of effort.
Heck, we have annual mandatory classes regarding ... and this list isn’t all inclusive ... suicide prevention, domestic abuse prevention, sexual harassment and rape prevention (SHARP), violence in the workplace prevention, equal opportunity/anti-discrimination classes, and, recently, classes pertaining to acceptance of transgenders in the military. In addition to the on-site classes, we have required computer training on these and other things that fall into the same general area. Finally, if something piques the interest of Congress or the press (like the Abu Ghraib thing, the Hasan killings, and “the increased numbers of rapes and sexual assaults in the Army”, there are “stand-down” days where we do nothing but attend classes ... most of which outline the ways that whites, in general, and male heterosexuals, specifically, are the root cause of most (if not all) of the problems in the military and in overall society.
Stupidity — that which is inherent in refusing God and calling that brains or intelligence — is most definitely at the root of it all.
Are you stung when I call that spade a spade?
It seems that by the hour reality is becoming more and more imperceptible. One really does have to cling to The Cross to keep any semblance of truth. When He told Pilate “I am IT”, He wasn’t kidding.
It gets into tinfoil hat territory but the 4chan kids point out that North Korea is one of the few countries (if not the only) without a central bank. So if you accept that “globalism” is just short for “international banking” could it be that the US is just being manipulated into doing the bidding of these globalists? Add a dash of McMaster and stir vigorously and you can really lose your bearings.
Thank God for giving us The Truth.
FUGOOGLE and your sexist and racist cesspit. We see your sedition.
Not to me... I stopped using the world as a gauge of what is “perceptible” a long time ago. The result is that more and more easily I see the living Christ everywhere. And sometimes He is even noticed by the world, and I encourage the world to then see even more.
Your use of “God’s” name does not hide the fact that you call “stupid” the hard realities and ominous signs you would rather cover up - than deal with as history should have taught you.
When they achieve all females, they’ll self destruct.
I raise your self willed view and desiderata of history one Holy Bible, and thereby rake in all the chips.
I am reminded that “I have spared enough that have not bended the knee...”. No question our enemy is powerful. No question our enemy will win many battles. But He is our North Star. We set our course on Him and no gale can blow us off course. Thanks for the reminder.
