US, might I interrupt long enough to ask if the ability to choose exists, how is it not then free to do so? Ability to choose what? Wanting to understand where you're coming from, not looking to join the present crusades. |

Christopher000 wrote: Please don't take that as me coming at you in a negative way, and looking for a fight. I just wanted to lay out where the heat comes from. Preachers can get emotional while preaching, and I know that's not the issue you have, but nobody would disagree with you on the clear types that you've spoken about. There's just a clear line of delineation, where the "yee-haws" are in one corner, and the rest, in the opposite corner, yelling, "Get out of here!". Appreciate your thoughtful posts, Christopher. |

Yolanda wrote: I guess we can label all undercover investigations as "spying." This is a precedent of lawlessness set for the return of Christ. Lawlessness abounds in this administration. And religious hypocrites are lining up with the government to bring everyone into submission or into an arena of dying for the cause of Christ. You have something backwards. If this administration is most guilty of something, it is in the revealing of the depth of corruption and lawlessness that had already infiltrated the government up to the revelation of it. Whatever one thinks of Trump, his election was a reaction to that increasing lawlessness. |

Jim Lincoln wrote: https://tinyurl.com/y4gmtwdt (Courts say anti-abortion 'heartbeat bills' are unconstitutional. So why do they keep coming?) The court says lots of things. The true issue gets sidetracked. What needs continued hammering is that the unborn at any age is a life, a separate human life from the mother. "Viability" is irrelevant. |

"State Rep. Brian Sims, a Democrat who is Pennsylvania’s first-ever openly homosexual legislator, used PeriscopeCo, a social-media streaming company, to display his rant, which went on for nearly 10 minutes."Thoughts on this- No need to include the redundant "Democrat" is there? Why does a homosexual care one way or another about abortion? His mother was not pro-death, why does he disrespect his mother? |

Bible Based Christian wrote: The truth is some people don't want to face up to the truth. Christians in American segregate themselves by race. Just like segregation in prisons, you have the whites, the blacks, the Mexicans, the Asians. MOST churches are the same. Denial is not Godly. How could a white man foster all of that hatred of others who are outsiders to his church? Perhaps because they are outsiders. Don't forget how many Klansmen where church goers. How many black youth who partake in racial motivated attacks against whites consider themselves Christian? Why? My Bible says "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?" How many lost people look at the all white and all black congregations and say look at these hypocrites and bigots I sure don't want to be like them? Say Amen or look for some stones to stone me with for telling you the truth. Isn't it possible for people with meaningless fleshly differences to be of one spirit, without being in the same place at the same time? |

Unprofitable Servant wrote: Defense budget is way outpaced by spending on social programs which have built in mandatory yearly increases. If y’all really were concerned about the deficit it would not be the military budget that would being discussed Quite agree, US. Programs designed to get people's continuing support by keeping them needy. Thankfully Trump is rebuilding the military, a proper use of spending. But the greater issue here is the policeman issue. Where are those most in need of keeping Hormuz open? We are no longer that rich nation able to run at every concern of others. Are we the only nation with boats and aircraft? |

John Lee wrote: --- I'll never understand how a country trillions in debt can afford to spend so much on weapons and aircraft carriers. Where is that money coming from? Would it not be cheaper to just retrieve all personnel from the area and leave the Iranians to themselves? A country such as ours, trillions in debt, cannot actually afford it any longer, but for some there is still some profit to be made from war, and the "global economy" is important to the global minded. It isn't for the US that the need to protect Hormuz oil flow exists, for we get little via there, providing 40% of our own, and importing another 40% from Canada and some from Mexico and Columbia. So it must be for the protection of others? In any case, I should expect that those most threatened would have the most interest in keeping the flow flowing, and not continue expecting that it will forever be that America can police the world. If people here knew what could come of massive debt, they might not be so anxious to fire up the federal reserve printing presses. I often tell folks I have more money in my wallet than the US government has. Debt is not wealth. |

Jim Lincoln wrote: .. This person was mentioned by David Brooks, and since the transcript is included with above you can easily find David Brooks reference to: from "The Catastrophic Performance of Bill Barr" https://tinyurl.com/y2mv38zt Why would any intelligent person want to read David Brooks? Isn't he still squirming in his chair because Trump won in 2016? |
