I'm hopeful as well that things can go back to some level of civility. Agree that the media dynamic isn't going to save us, but maybe it'll get better when the guy who has broken all rules of decorum and decency goes away.

Lol. Jesus gave up a weekend to save us from ourselves…and he needs money!

I’m totally excommunicating people from my life when they “vote for the wrong person.” That makes it sound way more innocuous than it really is. I like to surround myself with people that make me a better person. Voting for he-who-must-not-be-named is a deal breaker.

Fascinating. You seem like a really smart guy. If I told you my dad died of Parkinson’s 5 years ago and then showed up at my door yesterday, would you believe me?

10-80-10 would be nice, but I really think it’s closer to 50-50. I’ve personally lost at least 50% of my family & friends due to the recent political division in this country. There’s just no way to talk to the “other side” these days. I really wish there was as I think we have more in common...

Agree that his followers / biblical authors really wanted us to believe Jesus rose from the dead. I think that invalidates their entire narrative. If they’re really really claiming to be truthful about that, then I can’t believe anything they say. To be a Christian I think the hill you have to...

Agree that in the end it doesn't necessarily matter. The Bible has some great teachings and stories (some not so great). You can follow the teachings without necessarily believing any of it actually happened. The same can be said for loads of fictional novels. There are some great life...

Exactly. How do we choose what to believe? For me personally, I use my common sense (things I know from my lived experience) and if I'm really not sure, I dig in and research it. I know from my lived experience that virgins don't give birth and people don't rise from the dead. Those are...

Earlier in this thread there was a lot of discussion on the veracity of the Bible. Which books were selected / excluded, which stories are meant to be literal / metaphorical, etc. Christians quote the Bible to make their arguments. "God said this, Jesus said that." "God wants this or that...

I was describing our POTUS, so yes.

That's why I don't like them.

Why would anyone who doesn't fit Trump's very narrow definition of who he cares about support him? If you are: Black Female Non-Christian LBGTQ Middle class or lower economically Have any health problems Liberal If you are any of the above, Trump doesn't care about you. ...

Oh, there's crap on Trump.  Plenty of it.

A guy who thinks that contraception is abortion is way too extreme to be sitting on the Supreme Court.  But yes, he'll probably get there - until Trump is impeached and, if found guilty of treason, the Dems push to annul everything he did while in office.  Illegitimate POTUS = 2 illegitimate...

Well, about 10% of it.  90% of his career is being hidden from us.
