Jesus says he is tired of being used as the lever in right wing cons.

Well, it's Jesus or Allah...your choice.

So enlighten us, scholar.  What DID Trump mean by if you don't like our religion...?   What religion is that, hmm?
I would assume Christianity.

The United States cannot call itself a Christian country while rape factories like Liberty University still stand.

It would be like calling Baptists or Catholics Christians, ridiculous on its face.

You may find Lime knocking on your coconut for that last comment.

Instead of Palestinians in Gaza embracing Hamas, they should've armed themselves and killed every Hamas terrorist they saw.

Father and son.

Allah is tired of that shit as well. So is Mohammed and Buddha. The whole pantheon is sick of it. That is why right wingers have curse after curse heaped upon them so their fragile girp on culture steadily slips away.

We can have peace.

Salute,

True. I should separate Catholics into nonchristian Catholics like Opus Dei, paedophile priests, their protectors and apologists and Christian Catholics like the Liberation Theology types.

There are probably similar distinctions among Baptists, but the factions and the distinctions between them are less publicized. Anything Christian in that religion has to fall outside the SBC at least.

The West should itself be manufacturing more of the products it needs.
Today in bambuword it was declared there is a national security concern about solar
panels made in China, as they are connected to the internet.

Now Iran wants an oil embargo on Israel.
Can't do it by itself, needs OPEC to do it.
The Arab world has done it before.
Time for Joe to tell the Saudis..."don't do it".

The Day the Delusions Died


Prior to the October 7 massacre, many students, alumni, and donors with the  unconstrained vision trusted that the university, for all its many problems,remained the  best environment for civil discourse.

But then they watched university presidents who were quick to issue statements condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the killing of George Floyd fall silent, or offer the most slippery, equivocal statements carefully crafted to avoid offending anti Israel groups.
They watched an Israeli at Columbia get beaten with a stick, and heard reports about the physical intimidation of students on campuses across the country. They read about dozens of student organizations at Harvard signing a letter holding Israel entirely responsible for the massacre of Israelis.

The events of the last two weeks have shattered the illusion that wokeness is about protecting victims and standing up for persecuted minorities. This ideology is and has always been about the one thing many of us have told you it is about for years:power.
And after the last two weeks, there can be no doubt about how these people will use any power they seize
they will seek to destroy, in any way they can, those who disagree.

The whole point is that pick one is what Americans can do freely.  Because there is no American "our religion."  Trump s thinly veiled suggestion of a Christian litmus test for immigrants runs contrary to both the First Amendment and the founding principles of a secular democracy.

The religious test is the foundation of the pogroms trump has planned and republicans support if he or someone similar slime their way into power.
