  1. No, the "birther movement" is a tactic, albeit a poor one, to get a socialist, communist sympathizer, out of the office of POTUS. So, you're saying that it's ok because it's viable tactic even if it's a fuckin' stupid one? That it's ok for people to lie to mouth breathing idiot followers as long as they're trying to get "socialist, communist sympathizer, out of the office of POTUS"? Really? No, I am not. It is a game for the lawyers. BTW, when you resort to profanity in your posts you damage your credibility. You might try subscribing to one of the "word a day" services on the internet. Just a suggestion. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  2. Those of us in FL have long believed that CA creates the trends that spread across the nation. Could it be that the good people of CA have just become fed up to their eyeballs the LGBT weirdos within their midst? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  3. Yep, the omniscient omnipotent omnipresent god made a mistake the first time, which she subsequently corrected. What was that statement you made about imbeciles, over in the AZ thread?

  7. Simply stated and quite accurate. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  8. Oh, you're good. I've been bagged. Another good article. Thanks. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

  12. I'd think it's much the same as the effect a child's anticipation of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve has on the child's endorphins. Probably better to give them a mood altering chemical once per year that has been legally developed under scientific principles based on empirical research. Yeah, that's the ticket.

  15. Looks like you boys got a problem. Over here in the U.S. of A. anybody can sue anybody for any reason. The lawyers decide if it is worth the effort to get involved. Now the Holy Bible cautions against lawsuits between believers, advising conflicts should be settled within the congregational leadership. I guess that is why attorneys are such strong opponents against Christianity. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

  16. So, you disagree with the author, a black female, and the message she wrote to her American racial peers. Furthermore, you disagree with the tactics of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his civil rights movement. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  17. Time for new generation of black Americans Star Parker - Syndicated Columnist - 2/22/2010 10:35:00 AM Black History Month 2010 is not a great time for a party. Unemployment at almost 10 percent -- well over 16 percent among blacks -- doesn't make for much of a festive mood. But if the mood is not festive, shouldn't it be reflective? Certainly, there's reason for pride in black achievement in the 40-plus years since the Civil Rights movement. We've now got a couple black billionaires and a black president. The percentage of blacks with college degrees is three times greater now than in 1970. But black household income is still just 62 percent of white households. And the black poverty rate, at twice the national average, has hardly budged since the late 1960s. Blacks should be asking hard questions when, over this period of time, many immigrants from different backgrounds have come to this country with little and moved into the middle class in one generation. The accumulation of considerable black political power -- black mayors, governors, a 42-member Black Congressional Caucus, and now a black president -- has hardly made a difference. It should be clear that black economic distress is not a political problem. Studies show that it's family and education that produces success in America. Income correlates with education and education correlates with family background. Now consider that in 1970, 62 percent of black women were married compared to 33 percent today. In 1970, 74 percent of black men were married, compared to 44 percent today. Or that in 1970, five percent of black mothers were never married compared to 41 percent today. The Civil Rights movement was, of course, a religiously inspired and led movement. It made liberal use of the biblical imagery of the Exodus of the Israelite slaves from Egypt. Taylor Branch called his trilogy about Dr. Martin Luther King and the movement he led Parting of the Waters, Pillar of Fire, and At Canaan's Edge. To the misfortune of blacks that put great hope in the redemptive powers of that movement, their leaders prematurely closed their Bibles. The story of the liberation of the Israelite slaves did not end with their release from their Egyptian taskmasters. That was the beginning. They then proceeded to the mountain in the wilderness to receive the law to take with them and live by in the Promised Land. When it was clear that the former Egyptian slaves were not up to the task, they were condemned to wander for 40 years in the wilderness so that a new generation would arise, enter the land, and build the nation. Let's recall that the law they received was about family (honor your parents), about property and ownership (thou shalt not steal), and about being concerned about building your own and not what your neighbor has (thou shalt not covet). Rather than seeking redemption through this law, post-Civil Rights movement black leaders sought redemption in politics. The welfare state, entitlements, transfer payments, and the politics of differences and envy. Should we be surprised by the result? The New York Times recently reported that from 2004 to 2008, the political and charitable arms of the Congressional Black Caucus raised more than $55 million from corporations and unions. According to the Times, most of these funds were "spent on elaborate conventions...a headquarters building, golf outings...and an annual visit to a Mississippi casino resort." More was spent on the caterer for the Caucus's Foundation annual dinner -- $700,000 - than it gave out in scholarships. It's now over 40 years since the Civil Right movement -- enough wandering in the wilderness. It's time for a new generation of black Americans to step forward. A generation to turn to the truths that will rebuild black lives, black families, and lead blacks to the freedom that Dr. King and all blacks have dreamed about.

  21. Invalid argument previously discussed here, at great length. Invalid to YOU, perhaps. If it's illegal, it's illegal - so why are we torturing our own troops? What comes to mind, the wolf and the sheepdog have very similar characteristics and very different motivation. Those that live in a protected environment cannot seem to grasp the understanding of the difference. BTW, I assume you are referring to: "I Was Tortured at SERE School" http://therealrevo.com/blog/?p=7217&cpage=3 Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

  22. Yes, that is an example. .. and this is a good way to knowledge how? I said it was an example. I didn't say I thought it was a good example. The manner in which I use the term revelation knowledge is what we in the counseling business call an "ah hah" experience. It is profound and it is personal. It is what it is and does not require proof for someone else. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

  24. Eh, don't be. It was just a joke. It's hard to kid around here. I guess that's what the Bonfire is for. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
  25. What makes my heart sad is that you do not see the message of love in the gospel. Our main poster on that subject is rynodigsmusic. He gets beat up every time he makes a positive statement. It seems that no one here desires to see any love. Everything is a battle, one-ups-manship, win-lose, statistical BS, intolerance of faith. etc. Now, the Holy Bible has an answer for that. It is called the "end times." Those of us for whom the signs are visible also have hope in what lies on the other side. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
