“ U.S. Billionaire Wealth Surged by 70%, or $2.1 Trillion, During Pandemic. They Are Now Worth a Combined $5 Trillion” And they’ve got you fools arguing over whether sky daddy will forgive the poverty-stricken family that doesn’t want a kid because they already don’t have $300 for an emergency, can’t afford food, gas, or rent, Democrats ended the CTC expansion, and Republicans would spit on the same kid they forced to term if god forbid their own children had to share a school. re: Billionaire Wealth..and surprisingly (at least to me) is not much altruism there. I mean buying Twitter? I got mine and f x x x everybody else.

Yeah, what I believe is that you'll have the ultimate judgement day after you die, and we were created to be able to make our own choices. So, it'll all get handled once you leave this earth, anyway.

That's fine, but Christians still don't have the right, nor does anyone else, to make LAW based on RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. Telling others how to live and what freedoms they can and can't have is the height of arrogance. And, for the record, I don't believe in the magic man in the sky. There is no God. Sorry. That is a common made up belief of primitive people in millennia past to explain the (then) unexplainable. It's superstition. Hell, did you know that John didn't write the Book of John? Those books in the bible weren't written by the people who lived them. They were written 3 or 4 generations later by people who had heard the stories told throughout the years. Ever play the Telephone Game? Religious fundamentalists have caused nothing but grief and death down through the millennia. Enough. I am firmly opposed to basing law on religious beliefs. I am also FIRMLY opposed to telling people how to observe their religious beliefs. If you DO believe in a religion, Government should not be able to tell you how to observe that religion short of committing crimes. It goes both ways. Respecting and allowing the beliefs of others should be how we live as a society. Whether those beliefs are in science or religion. As long as you are not infringing on the rights of others, have at it! No one should tell you you can't.

Respecting and allowing the beliefs of others should be how we live as a society. Whether those beliefs are in science or religion. As long as you are not infringing on the rights of others, have at it! No one should tell you you can't. I was agreeing that everyone has the right to make choices, since Jesus wanted this. I personally think that there's a place for man's laws, but ultimately you'll be judged by the real judge, anyway. In regards to abortion, I don't believe in it, and I think it's murder, but a person has the right to make the call on it. Any type of murder is wrong, and to me this a moral choice. Don't go to jail for it, but you'll have to deal with it once you meet Jesus. You've constantly mentioned that name calling is not tolerated here, and I would ask you not to call Jesus a Magic Man, since he's held in such high regard to so many. It's condescending, and rude. I'm not coming after you for being an atheist, if that's what you are. You have a choice to believe in what you'd like to believe in, but you had better hope your choice in this matter is the right call. Jesus does not want you, if you do not want him, but he'll try to persuade you until your heart has gotten too hardened. I would be happy to debate you in the "Culture and Values" section regarding Jesus, and Christianity at any time, since I don't think it's proper to do so here. So, I respond to you regarding the issue of the Prophet John.

Third, I was referring to the Father, not the Son, in this case when I said Magic Man in the Sky. As I mentioned, organized religion has brought millennia of pain, suffering, wars, and mass death. Inquisitions, dark ages, Crusades, Holy Wars - I'm tired of people justifying horrific behavior on religious beliefs, regardless of their religion. And in our current POLITICAL climate we are seeing a massive amount of people trying to legislate based on the Bible, and not on good law and what is Constitutional. This issue is one of the key issues in that group.

This issue is one of the key issues in that group. Christians believe that Jesus is here at all times, and Christians believe that God the Father and Jesus are all the same in one. Using " Magic Man" isn't an insult? Come on now. That fool's nobody. Now, you can continue to mock this and continue with the name calling, but I would say that's hypocritical on your part. You are, of course, entitled to believe whatever you want, but be respectful to others and their beliefs such as mine, as I'm being respectful to your beliefs.

Does the left oppose any law that governs the Mother's and Doctor's right to commit infanticide (defined as aborting an in-utero baby that is viable)? If so, let's vote on that position. If not, let's debate where and how to draw that line of viability. I'm hopeful that someday babies in-utero will be able to be transplanted into artificial wombs. Then pregnant women who don't want a baby can have their child transplanted into an artificial womb so that they can be adopted before birth. Wouldn't that be wonderful if the adopting parent(s) could visit, talk to and interact with their baby in the hospital for weeks, even months before birth?

Massive false equivalence, as usual. A Fox News talking point (because they cater to their audience, as Laura said) and really nothing more. There's no endorsement by the current administration, there's no threat of violence here. I don't agree with involving her children, but to say the protest is targeting them is misleading.

Massive false equivalence, as usual. www.aldailynews.com/armed-man-arrested-for-threat-to-kill-justice-kavanaugh/It is somehow OK to have people motivated by Leftists to the extent that they acted to kill Justice Kavanaugh but the real threat to Democracy is from Flag Pole wielding kooks in the Capital. False Equivalency indeed. The hatred of Kavanaugh and Barrett come from the same place.

False Equivalency indeed. The hatred of Kavanaugh and Barrett come from the same place. Motivated by leftists? They are motivated because the Supreme Court has been ideologically hijacked by undeserving, unqualified judges being elected to it with one express purpose: To extend a far-right agenda and divide people. "Acted to kill" is silly hyperbole. Kavanaugh was never in any danger, not for a single second. The man abandoned the plot on his own and was arrested before he could get anywhere near Kavanaugh. He had a history of mental illness, even asking a 9-1-1 operator for psychiatric help. Reducing the events of January 6th to "flag wielding kooks" is a pattern of gross behavior from delusional people who can't grip reality or aren't interested in truthful integrity. Your presence on this board serves no functional purpose. You consistently peddle refuted conspiracy theories and extremist behavior, pushing a far right-wing agenda with tainted sources, gross mischaracterizations and flat out lies, if we're being blunt. You're a fish for a party that doesn't care about the morals you want to try and project. I'm sure you'll start another new thread soon about some other random topic and end up talking largely to yourself.

I find it fascinating how people on the right are so concerned about a threat to the life of a conservative Supreme Court Justice, but they weren't at all concerned about the lives of Democratic members of Congress and the Vice President. They'll give the people who threatened those lives a pass, but not this guy.
Perhaps NONE of them should get a pass...
Just a thought.

Also, it's fascinating how Republicans want to protect infants/fetuses before they're born, but after their born they're on their own - and if they get shot and killed by the dozens, well, that's the price for freedom! Thoughts and prayers. Can't restrict guns. Can't have background checks, can't limit gun sales to those 21 and older. Can't ban assault weapons that no private citizen has any business owning or any real need for.
Nope, protect those kids before they're born, then they're on their own! No social support, no protection from nutjob shooters - nothing.
Hell, Governor Abbott of Texas is looking into fighting the requirement to give all kids a public education!
So, the focus is on PRE-birth. After birth? Not their problem.

I don't know any Supreme Court Judges but know plenty of people in Law Enforcement. Do you think their IDs and addresses should be made available to whomever based on the opinion of anyone? AOC accuses Ted Cruz of almost having her murdered but Kavanagh and family should just suck it up? Some clowns go into solitary confinement for months and months for their particular stupid law violations but if you violate the law outside a Judges' house....meh. The hypocrisy is stagering.
