Re: Trump On Torture
I'm sorry but I can't take your polls seriously. There is so much manipulation of public opinion these days no poll is trustworthy and most especially not a poll that affirms political correctness.
The way to tell what people think is to let them vote, though even that is manipulated these days. One thing we know is that when people DID vote about gay marriage in state after state they soundly opposed it, and then the Supreme Court came along and said their views didn't count. "Unconstitutional" by PC definition, though not by original intent. Government tyrannizing the people. Getting ready for the totalitarian world state. Can't wait.

I just get sick of hearing about this wimpy Jesus ...
Yeah, me too. I much prefer macho Jesus.
Less of that crap about "love thy neighbor" and "turn the other cheek" eh?

So you'll ignore the evidence in favor of stuff you made up in your head?

Re: Trump On Torture
One thing we know is that when people DID vote about gay marriage in state after state they soundly opposed it
That was the early trend, but towards the end of things that stopped and we did have a number of marriage equality bills passed based on free elections within the state. By the time the Supreme Court agreed to let a man be listed on his male spouses death certificate, the majority of the people in the country were in favor of allowing gay marriage. Primarily the opposition these days is a bunch of old folks and their pastors.

Re: immigration and incarceration
CROSSING THE BORDER ILLEGALLY DOESN'T NEED TO GO TO TRIAL, IT IS CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.
Federal immigration law says that unlawful presence in the country is a civil offense and is, therefore, not a crime. The punishment is deportation. However, some stateslike Arizonahave criminalized an immigrant’s mere presence.
Immigration Myths | Learning for Justice
Faith, why don't you research your proclamations of criminality before you preach? All through this discussion you've spouted off without knowing what you are writing about. This is another example of this tendency of yours.
Really, you like looking this silly?

Re: Trump On Torture
that's what leftist PC does, and the whole point of it is to intimidate and silence people you disagree with
That's judgment of people's motives.

Re: immigration and incarceration
Oh aren't you just the last word in precision. Civil offense, criminal offense, it's an OFFENSE for pete's sake. It's AGAINST THE LAW.

I am not a sinner either.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Trump On Torture
edit: sorry, misread you.
So what has happened is that the propaganda machine has corrupted enough people to turn the standards of millennia upside down. Down we go.

This discussion has now entered the predictable phase of willful confusion on the part of my opponents, and not one person has addressed the issues I've raised, as usual. But it's all there in case there's anybody left with an intact brain cell who might want to know the truth.

nobody gets forgiven who doesn't repent.
Jesus prayed for forgveness for his tormentors while they were still killing him. He did not wait for them to repent.
