LGBTQ+ People Take Up Arms as Fears of Right-wing Hate Groups Grow

[Sabri]

The reason being US has steered towards Paganism. They are not spiritual anymore.

This country was founded on Jesus Christ and the biblical principles. That’s why every politician has to be sworn into office using the Bible.

According to Christians, the world has never been without God and yet humans have always been prone to violence. Existence of God or not doesn’t seem to make a difference.

And just use your words. Humans are prone or predisposed to violence or to destroy themselves. Hence a need for a savior

Actually no. There is no mention of god in the constitution and no requirement to swear on a Bible.

Which has done zero to change anything about humanity.

What does the amount of representation in the population have to do with their experiencing higher levels of violent crime?

Sounds like fake news to me. Please go back to browsing Snopes.

Why do you say I’m gaslighting him?

If you read his statement and your response and can't see how you are gaslighting then I can't help you. Maybe you should try harder to converse civilly with others, especially those who you believe need to be converted.

 

[Hank77]

I’m just doing what he has done to others on this forum.

Is that what Jesus teaches? Do to others what they do to others? I don't think so. Where did you learn that version of Jesus' commandment?

Yet no mention of either is made in the constitution.

Untrue. Any or no item may be used for oaths of office and religious portions of them are not mandatory. Also article VI of the constitution states:

no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

Best swearing in ever:

So that is a "No idea" on the answer to my question? I do not care what it sounds like to you, only what you are able to actually demonstrate.

Hold on. Have you read some of his post. I said I will pray for him and his loved ones. He bypasses the good things I say to say things in a threatening manner.

Is that what Jesus teaches? Do to others what they do to others? I don't think so. Where did you learn that version of Jesus' commandment?

You can’t stick up for him. He’s a big boy he can fight his on battles.

Untrue. Any or no item may be used for oaths of office and religious portions of them are not mandatory. Also article VI of the constitution states:


Best swearing in ever:

Every President.

 

[Desk trauma]

Every President.

Also untrue, it is not required of them either and John Quincy Adams chose to place his hand on a law book rather than a bible during his oath.

The oath of office for the president per the constitution:

”I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Note how “so help me god” is not included.

Nobody is goading. It's entirely reasonable for me to suggest that if you have made a claim that you have been so equal in your criticism of others then it's fair for me to ask you to confirm it. No need to search. Just give an example or two.

If you can't then so be it. I'll take that for what it is.

That's 1

 

[Ceallaigh]

This is what he lives his every waking hour doing. Rereading through Christian posts to find something just something to cry about. Christians are mean.

Some people are only on this forum just to give us a hard time.

It's the people who are without God. Apart from God people turn out badly.

Not all of you are like that.

 

[Pommer]

You have posted nothing for me to make any call on whether you are male or female. Frankly it doesn't concern me one way or the other. I don't post differently depending on whether someone is male or female. If you take offense at my anger then pretend it's directed at a man. That's for your benefit, not mine.

And I do not use the type of terms that you use seemingly as a matter of course. But it seems from what you say that your religion grants you the right to do so.

Who knew that misgendering someone could be seen as an attack or offensive?
