If he had called a white dude a racist cracker, white supremicist, they would have given him a medal.

Who was better Chester or Festus?

Festus was a much better singer. 👍

No one ever told anybody in my large Catholic family nor the large Catholic grammar school and HS and nursing school I attended to not read the bible...

I went to a catholic grade school and catholic high school. No priest or nun ever told us not to read the Bible either. They simply said we needed a priest to interpret it for us. I was so rebellious, I read for myself anyway. Some may have had a problem with that, but there wasn’t much they could do about it. I still read it for myself. 😁🤣

This also is my answer to the problem.

I bet no one would have to pay them much.

The Left wants a confrontation, and they deserve one.

They may get one. The tree of Liberty........

Give up knowing Christ, assurance of salvation, and amazing grace...

For a man-made system of false sacraments, eternal insecurity, and The Catholic Hamster Wheel of Guilt??

A very poor choice bro. If it’s all the same to you, I think I won’t do it. 😁🤣😆😊

There may be others, but from what I have seen, the bikers don’t back down at all. She needs a bunch of bikers, to show up at her door. 👍

I hope she is a strong believer in the 2nd Amendment.

Democrats want their open borders.

Of course they do. They know that is one way to destroy the country. That is their goal. Isn’t it pretty much true, that all major empires, have committed national suicide? Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome. Now, Europe, UK, and the US, close behind. Is it too late to reverse this decline toward national suicide? There might be time yet, but I have an awful feeling, that the tree of Liberty, may need watering.

And, another thing. Since I am into YOPIOS, I can offer my interpretation of 2nd Peter 1:20. I am amazed at how many people misinterpret this verse, possibly cuz they don’t read verse 21. Peter VERY MUCH wanted the people to understand and interpret (YOPIOS) The only thing Peter was saying, was that a group of guys didn’t sit down one day, and decide they would take it upon themselves, and write a bunch of scripture. That’s all he was saying. I believe that is the correct interpretation. 😁👍

Hey MM, it’s been many decades, since I rather uncerimoniously dumped the Catholic Church, that I cannot remember for sure what the priests and nuns told us about reading scriptures. I don’t think I remember them telling us not to read it. They just told us to let a priest interpret it for us. Maybe these dudes can tell a bunch of third worlders, not to read the scriptures, but I was a super rebellious, independent minded, American catholic. Telling me I couldn’t read the Bible, is like putting a red cape in front of a bull. I just told them to take a hike, and got a Bible.
Now, I am heavy into YOPIOS, and I am my own pope. 😁 I imagine some might not like that. Such is life. I will still do my YOPIOS.

If they find 'peace'; even fleeting, they'll probably not be looking for Jesus; but PEACE.

Well any peace that people find in eastern religions, IS fleeting, since no REAL peace is found out side the Nazarene. 😁 If some don’t care about that, it’s entirely on them. 👎

Yes, it’s an open forum. Anyone can post.

I am just not into the health/wealth, name it/claim it Gospel. I have been to a couple. There was more talk about health/wealth, than there was about the Gospel of salvation by grace. I don’t know if they are all like that, but the two I attended were.
It’s similar to those tongues speakers. It seems more emphasis is put on spiritual gifts, than preaching the gospel. Though I am not sure, it’s possible some will say, if I don’t speak in tongues, I cannot be saved. I don’t buy that either.

The author brings up some important points that I agree with and is also why I have no desire to ever go back to Catholicism.

Same here. I have no desire to swim the Tiber, and besides, I hear it is quite polluted. 😁

Do people actually fall for this pap? The only thing that these eastern religions will get someone, is an eternity in a hot, burning Hell. 🔥. Why would someone ever choose that?

Why are whites suicidal?

Guilt maybe? Something I DO NOT suffer from.

When people came to Jesus for healing, He healed them. End of story.

And another thought MM. People came to Jesus for healing, but we don’t know for sure, that ALL of them were actually saved from their sins. Many of them probably were, but all of them? I don’t know.

Fine sounding theory but since people who seek healing as still sick, you need to explain why this doesn’t always work.

Gee whiz MM. Didn’t we just have a knock down, drag out thread on this very same subject, just a few days ago, and now we are right back at it? I am just not into the health/wealth, name it/claim it gospel.
By the way, by his stripes we are healed, I don’t think refers to physical healing, but spiritual healing. I think it refers to our salvation experience. Our sins are forgiven, but our physical problems may or may not be healed.

What are the Chances?

Would I be going out on a limb, if I said about 0% chance?
