They got him to be returned from El Salvador which was such an embarrassment to this administration that they’re now trying to disappear him before he can be proven innocent in court.

Personally, I feel it is a generous step in the right direction for the Trump Admin.

DEVELOPING: MS-13 Gang Member Kilmar Abrego Garcia to be Deported to African Country of Eswatini | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila

MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been informed that he will be deported to the African country of Eswatini.

www.thegatewaypundit.com

The U.S. has been quite accommodating to Mr. Garcia and I am so happy this matter has been settled. While I have been to Africa I have never been to Eswanti, they have a nice temperate climate there.

The title is a lie: Albrego Garcia is not nor has he ever been credibly shown to be a member of any gang including MS 13. He fled to America to escape the gang there that came after him and his family.

Militarization of cities is not the answer. It's an expensive untenable band aid.

I’m sure blaming pregnant women won’t have any affect on the declining birth rate.

Did you know that the politics of all ten of those cities have been dominated by liberal mayors and liberal city councils?

Isn't the answer for Trump to offer to help out Republicans governors with high crime cities. Some of these governors might welcome the help.

I guess the main reason neither Biden admin nor Trump admin have released is because it would be damaging to both sides.

The Biden administration did not make it an election issue, and Biden didn't interfere with the DOJ. Until this presidential term, the DOJs operated independently and presidents did not interfere. It was such a strong issue, that when ex-President Clinton spoke to Loretta Lynch on a tarmac for a few minutes, the right reacted hysterically, practically pulling their hair out (metaphorically). Now there is blatant interference by the President and the right does not care.

I just can't get too worked up about a millionaire movie actor not getting yet another award.

The painting is a different story. It is in keeping with the current administration's lauding of criminals and traitors.

Back to where we always end up, over and over and over again for many years now. If the Holy scriptures support such drastically different beliefs of the mechanism of our origins according to personal interpretations, preferences, or opinions, then they most obviously do not represent any kind of objective truth. We all just make our own truth.

No. There is an objective truth. Some things, like the nature of the Genesis creation story, are not clear and subject to interpretation. The point that there is one omnipotent God Who created the world, is clear. How He went about it, is open to interpretation. But the way you suppose it happened will not affect your salvation.

Amo2 said:
Why would I accept your interpretation of the truth above, that scripture is only about the relationship between God and man?

That's what it's for. It's about God and man and our relationship. Why do you think He gave it to us?

John 12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

You don't have to worry about that. Creationists are no less Christian than the rest of us. Even if you get those things wrong, it won't hurt your salvation unless you make an idol of your interpretations.

Amo2 said:
What a bummer for humanity I guess. We will all face final judgment in relation to the WORD OF GOD, yet it is so hard to understand that we all must just make up what it really teaches for ourselves, and just hope we get lucky I guess. Not!

God makes it very clear who will be saved at judgement. And it won't be about whether or not you approve of the way He did creation.

Yes, you are trying but you are trying by arguing for the world to become worse again by allowing abortion. So, no matter how hard you try, good will always stand in your way.

It’s not quite that simplistic but I have no problems with my stance.

It’s 12 days early, but: avast, mateys, where might I get me letters of marque, so I can do a bit-o-pirating on the high seas!?

It’s still technically feasible that such could be employed, and even though this is an enumerated power of the Congress, if the (current) President has issued any, I’m sure that that august body would have zero qualms with it.

(One hopes that this was a “privateer”, which “confiscated” these chemicals, since, if it was done by United States Naval forces, could be construed as an open act of war…against China. We don’t know if the crews were allowed to continue living, or if ships were sunk, in this instance.)

Here’s the press release from Pirro’s office.

I checked those precursors too and they can have legitimate uses. It would not be the first time the USA has been wrong about the intent. Look at how the USA still seizes money from its own citizens. Quite a bit of money is taken and never returned all based on suspicion. I will assume the precurser bust was righteous though. But I do hope the USA exercises caution as well.

Congrats! As predicted, evols resort to either -- "You're ignorant" or the strawman. And you've combined the two in a single post.

I didn't have to resort to anything. You posting that you think grandparents and grandkids are an example of reproductive isolation exposed your ignorance of the subject (while you simultaneously think you know biology better than biologists). All I had to do was point at it.

A very good example of what you said is the belief in the Theory of Evolution. Here we have a bunch of scientists who have put together this theory and the world (not really adept in biology and genetics) are forced to believe the theory (through it being taught in science classes at schools). Thank goodness there are scientists who are now coming forward and exposing the holes in the Theory of Evolution.

Which this is relative to the OP question of moral obligation to investigate truth. Darwinian theory of evolution can only be "true" in a universe where absolute truth that's knowable doesn't actually exist. To admit that absolute truth (or even truth in general) is knowable, even if not known absolutely; is to ultimately concede to the reality of intelligent design. As truth actually can not exist in a random universe.

Probably. There will be Republicans too if they are not all redacted out. A DOJ aide was caught on tape mentioning that.

It is not and has not ever been observed.

We see it going on in populations constantly. Perhaps you don't know what the scientific definition of biological evolution is. What do you think it is?

Amo2 said:
I find the idea that the incomprehensible level of complexity we see among living things and even their environment, are most certainly far beyond the realm of random chance events to bring about.

Darwin's great discovery is that it isn't by random chance. What you don't know about it, is holding you back from the truth.

Amo2 said:
I believe logic dictates that we exist by design.

Evidence shows your belief is wrong. In fact, engineers have found that evolutionary processes are more efficient at solving very complex problems than design would be. God, being omniscient, simply chose the best way to do it. Now, man is starting to catch on. Engineers use genetic algorithms that copy evolution to solve many difficult problems. This might seem wrong to humans, but...

Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Amo2 said:

He could have done anything. But He chose the processes we observe. We know that the creation story is not a literal history, because in one chapter it says six days and in another chapter it says one day.

Why would I need to disprove a theory which has never been proven? It is not and has not ever been observed. Then there is the subject of exactly what you mean by evolution, as there are different views regarding it. Change happens. Species can and do adapt to differing environments. This is observed. Whether this is a built in product of design, or the result of deep time slow or sporadic rapid evolutions from simple to complex, cannot be observed. We were not there. Nor do we observe any such events within recorded histories.

I find the idea that the incomprehensible level of complexity we see among living things and even their environment, are most certainly far beyond the realm of random chance events to bring about. Such an idea seems absolutely ludicrous to me. Apart from divine and or some kind of intelligent intervention or guidance, such is pretty much simply impossible. I believe logic dictates that we exist by design. After which I do not see any reason to try and bring the God proclaimed by scripture down to my level by rejecting the idea that He could not have performed the task in six days as scripture plainly states, which also indicate this took place around six thousand years ago.

Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

So you're not saying you can disprove the ToE, you just don't agree with it. Just like with you and I having different views on interpretation of parts of scripture, that's totally fine with me. It really makes no difference to me if you don't agree with the ToE or any other conclusion from science.

That's quite a story, and judging people with a lot of speculation. Leave the judging to Jesus. You would do well to study the life of Saint Gregory the Great and Saint Benedict and the monks that came after them.

Deny all the recorded history it pleases you to deny, and look at only that which pleases you. I am of course not making you read these posts, nor are stating recorded and verified facts of history just telling stories. I am not denying that there have been good Christinas of every denomination in the past. Just pointing out the abuses of a great many of them as well, and the main problem connected to such abuses and persecutions, in churches which unite with the state. They are apostate in seeking and establishing relations with the powers that be of this world, in the place of the Holy Spirit of God by way of conviction and conversion.

Jas 4:1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

How much more a friend of the world can one become, than to have illicit spiritual relations with the ones running it, or worse yet choose to run it yourself. Using the power of mandates and punishments upon all who disagree with your teachings and practices. Which neither our Lord nor any of His apostles taught, promoted in any way shape or form, or exemplified.
