not to mention the baddies like ms-13 and other criminals that kill citizens who aren't overtly interested in rehabilitation Illegal immigrants commit crimes at a 25% lower rate than US citizens. There has also never been a confirmed link between immigration and increases in crime rates.

In Brief:
Capitalism(unbridled and unregulated) seeks to entice and dominate the globe through seduction. The right wing goal of eliminating meddlesome government regulation is both a blessing and a curse as to its success. Socialism seeks to capture and govern the world through oppression via mandatory consensus and government regulation. ringo can crow about how it is what Jesus would approve of yet fails to take into account our fallen (or flawed) human nature. I am a political moderate. I see pros and cons in both political ideologies. Of course my world view is shaped by the belief that we humans need Jesus and a spiritual transformation. Ironically, Trump may actually have been destined to step into power in times such as these. He is arguably delaying the demise of the United States as a major player on the global stage. On the other hand, I never had any reason to dislike Barack Obama...as many of my conservative friends do. If one were to choose which of the two would be a possible antichrist archetype, Obama ironically would fit the bill only because he seems so professional, polished, and nice. (Traits that a cunning antichrist would have) while Trump allowed himself to be used by the capitalists as he in turn exploited the system himself for the benefit of his wealthy friends as well as his families success. But he never seems to mind if we know it. And the populist hillbillies love the guy for his gutsy brashness. All I know is that the economy is likely to fall apart during the next presidential term...expect a 10 year correction at best.Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry. For science and philosophy to continue to advance in knowledge, chance must be demythologized once and for all. ~RC Sproul "A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." ~Mark Twain " ~"If that's not sufficient for you go soak your head."~Faith You can "get answers" by watching the ducks. That doesn't mean the answers are coming from them.~Ringo
Subjectivism may very well undermine Christianity.In the same way that "allowing people to choose what they want to be when they grow up" undermines communism.~Stile

Nonsense. Socialism seeks to capture and govern the world through oppression via mandatory consensus and government regulation. Socialism seeks to have each contribute what he can and each receive what he needs. Jesus said the same thing.

For Christians there are a lot of reasons to dislike Obama. He had a particular disdain for people who "cling to God (and guns)".
I think the pinnacle was when he forced nuns to perform abortions. Edited by messenjaH of oNe, : No reason given.

Despite the optics that CNN et al. are pushing, the American public saw through the ruse when Mueller spoke. It's outside of the purview of the American public to elect a democrat. We spent forty mueller dollars to reelect trump. This "Mueller" report was a hitjob run by a lawyer for a Clinton Aide.
Pathetic. It's almost like the universe is in favor of Trump "winning". This is almost too strange to be real. Trump's democrat opponents hand him victories left and right. I don't understand how they are not truly on his side. It would almost make sense that the whole political machine was in the bag for Trump. A forty mueller dollar farce funded by the taxpayer. Comey's best friend, naked in front of Nadler et al. Pathetic.

I think the pinnacle was when [Obama] forced nuns to perform abortions. lol wut?It says something about the qualities of our current president that the best argument anyone has made in his defense is that he didn't know what he was talking about. -- Paul Krugman

I think the pinnacle was when he forced nuns to perform abortions. All this time I thought Obama had all those nuns in the national forests to minister to the jihadists. Now I find out they were armed with coat hangers. Whoda thunk. Eschew obfuscation. Habituate elucidation.
