For much of Hillary's youth, [her father] Hugh was the only male influence on her life that had any real bearing. Her views, her political ideas, her religion—all this was filtered through Hugh, as he helped shape her sense of the world and her sense of self. But all that changed dramatically when she was thirteen, and the Reverend Don Jones, a Methodist minister, entered her life.
She began dropping by Jones's office after school or during summer afternoons, eager to talk about ideas or insights she culled from the youth minister and his sermons. According to Roger Morris, biographer of the Clintons, Jones had her read Tillich, Niebuhr, Soren Kierkegaard, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and they had lengthy, increasingly serious discussions. "She was curious," says Jones. "She was just insatiable."
Jones took from Hillary's study of his good works, adding this important insight: "She is very much the sort of Christian who understands that the use of power to achieve social good is legitimate."

That’s why I don’t get to write Scriptures.
Sometimes I try to forget this poor excuse for a human being. He is one of the closet “liberation theology” supporters, like a well done steak that looks so good, but still pink on the inside.
Wait a minute... I like rare steak.
lol!
Well there ya go then! :-)
See? There is no comparison.
Was she reading these philosophy books after she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary or after? Before or after she wanted to join the military? I like to keep the timeline straight.
This was just a few years after her “I wannabe an astronaut”. (She heard astronauts didn’t have to iron their suits”.)
Hillary’s life-changing hero was Saul Alinsky, the radical University of Chicago-trained social scientist. Obama’s teachers in his own early “community organizing” experience in Chicago were schooled in “the Alinsky method,” which Alinsky himself described as “rubbing raw the sores of discontent.”
Obama’s trainer, Mike Kruglik, described Omaba as the best student he ever had.
And the architect of Obama’s “grass roots” organizing campaign is none other than highly-placed Alinsky-ite, Marshall Ganz.
Funny, isn’t it, how it all coincidentally fits together....?
lol
Luke 20:25 - He said to them, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
“Jones had her read Tillich, Niebuhr, Soren Kierkegaard, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and they had lengthy, increasingly serious discussions.”
My, what a precocious 13 year old to be able to understand these philosophers! (sarc) How many more of these stories about Hillary the Wunderkind are we going to have to endure??
I wonder if Rev.Jones asked Hillary when she was schooled in the fine art of necromancy. As I recall she was interviewed on the Today Show in the early ‘90s and related that she would go to Eleanor Roosevelts old room (she slept in a different bed than her husband, just like Hillary) and in all seriousness said she had two-way conversations with Mrs. Roosevelt. That in-and-of itself should disqualify her from running for election.
I fully understand the context and the verse. We have the ability to not allow the state to steal our funds, unlike the Israelites. We must not allow the state to do it. I pay my taxes, as required.
