Just announced!!
Totally agree with you. Better move would be to let them fight it.
Didn’t you use a preposition to end a sentence with?
If man tells me he's a Muslim, I know what he believes. I know what his book says. I know his god is NOT my God. If a Muslim is nice to you, it's only for a moment. He will stab you if he gets the chance. There is nothing inherently good about him. If you look at what is happening now in Europe, you will see Muslims start to rape more, rob more, murder more, and persecute Jews and Christians more, because there are more of them. The "Restrainer" restrained, but now the "Restrainer" is leaving. They felt the same 10 years ago, but are just now showing what they feel because there are more of them. If they felt differently, they wouldn't be Muslim.
There are Christians that feel very strongly about their faith, but they will get bold when they are in church. Not so much when they are in line at Walmart. If we were a predominate Christian country, the country would be much different. To advocate killing a baby would be absurd, or advocating sodomy would be shameful. It was that way a few years ago as the "Restrainer" was strong in America.
I always found it depressing to see the talking heads come to work with their little ash crosses on their foreheads and then speak favorably about abortion and sodomy. If America is judged, everyone is subject to die, not just the "bad" people. Our children are in danger for what we have allowed to happen.
Here again, reading our Bibles, we see Israel was put in slavery and destroyed many times for the choices they made as a nation. Are you going to tell me there was not one good Jew in Israel when they were put in slavery?
If America turns on Israel, it doesn't matter how many good Christians are in America, we will be cursed. When Obama turned the rainbow lights on the WH and when he voted against Israel in the UN, America was in grave danger. If Trump does nothing else but befriend Israel, and moving the embassy goes a good way, we are reversing what was begun when a Muslim was made president.
If a Democrat is sitting next to you in church, at some point he/she needs to be confronted with the Word of God. If they vote Democrat, they support abortion no matter what they say with their mouths. We all have a choice, pick the world or pick Christ, but you can't have both. Democrats have substituted Government for God. There are multiple verses about being double minded, lukewarm, serving 2 masters, ect. I have RAILED here at Catholics that say NOTHING to a priest, or any other church officials about giving Sacraments to Democrats that vote for abortion, and now sodomy, along with other crimes against God. This is how "wise guys" get funerals with all the trimmings if you are Catholic. Why on earth was Ted Kennedy given a funeral with all the trimmings when he died? Forget killing Mary Jo, He voted for abortion every chance he got.
Yes, when God gets fed up, he will kill masses of us and there are no innocents. INDIVIDUALLY, you can go to heaven, but there is no Spiritual covering for the US if we don't deserve it.
When you get baptized, you are spiritually dying to your flesh. You are raised as a new creature and live for God. If a bus hits you leaving the church after professing Christ, you go to Heaven. There is NO guaranteed life here on earth. As you are raised to a new creature, we should spend our new life serving God until we receive our new resurrected body from God.
The point of all this is life here on earth is temporary and NOT assured at any time. A nation can be blown completely off the globe at the whim of God and we deserve it. Individually, our fate can be assured. BTW, this is the explanation of why bad things happen to good people. Life here is temporary whether 8 or 80. We are all born dying. What happens after that is the key.
Churchill said, “This is the sort of nonsense up with which I will not put!”
Uh...where did I end a sentence with a preposition?
Only if you like seeing America’s youth dying in endless wars to re-make the world.
Your response was long, and I will address part of it later.
I do not judge or immediately condemn people by their labels. Do not forget that Roe v Wade was decided by a majority R Supreme Court. At one time the R party was the party of the mushy moderates. The D party had multiple wings and contained both pro-life Baptists and conservative Catholics. I have had neighbors and business associates who were moderate or secular Muslims. I have never had any issue with them. One I still deal with now is an Indian Muslim who showed more compassion to me in going through a nasty contested custody, than the Baptist pastor who presided over my wedding (and who I considered one of my best friends). Another Indian Hindu client who knew what I was going through, offered time and support. God uses different people in our lives. Some of the non-Believers are open to the Gospel, some are not. My witness to them as a Believer is through kindness, fairness, honesty and compassion.
People would not have liked me before I became a Christian. I spent several decades of my life in failed relationships of my own making - even in my early days of walking as a Christian. God is a God of second chances. Every other faith tradition deserves our best shot at sharing the Gospel with them. Everyone deserves due process (thou shalt not murder!). It is part of what separates us from the ISIS types. Radical Islamic terrorists and those who fund them should be given the justice they deserve. But we are NOT innocent in our foreign policy in the ME (cue frothing at the mouth neocons reading this). Destroying Iraq, the least radical of all the ME countries, and a counter-weight to Iran, surely ranks as the most egregious foreign policy disaster in our history.
...and BTW, some of the most unpleasant people I have ever met are here in this forum. These alleged “conservatives” attack those of us who are committed paleos, constitutionists and libertarians. I though Bush was a fraud before he even ran for President. Had I been a member of FR at the time, I probably would have been zotted. As it was, I got slammed for pointing out that Bush appointed an openly homosexual ambassador to Romania, and that his “partner” participated in the ceremony; that Bush named a section of Interstate here in TX after the abortion doctor father of a D state representative; and that he helped move the TX state supreme Court to the political left.
Time and truth go hand in hand. We should not be so quick to condemn others based on labels.
We will find out
Okay, it’s not a sentence, but it did bring my clause out...
Bolton answers to Trump, not the other way around.
Pretty sure the Bushes are the guys who get naked with Moloch in the woods of California. And Trump just nominated one of their insane dogs.
I’m at best neutral on Bolton because of his association with Bush junior’s Iraq adventure- but Bolton is said to have opposed Bush’s nation building policy which would be a point in his favor.
It probably doesn’t matter either way, an NSA isn’t setting policy or even running the NSC, their job is to brief the President.
You do know that Trump can do whatever he wants with money from Omnibus Bill, it isn’t a Budget? Trump sent letter to Congressional Leaders invoking that 1985 Emergency Act like Reagan...that is why he is taunting on Twitter building the Wall with military.
Yes, and seriously, Tucker is the only one on FOX who has a show that I will not miss. It is ALWAYS very good, and Tucker is truly an independent mind. And, beautifully, he never misses an opportunity to LOL when his guest deserves it.
