do not show opposition against an evil person, that can mean someone with a gun or a knife. Depending on the verse and the translation can have 10 different meanings. And one I notice one thing conservatives Christians do. They use the bible to justify evil. Would like a list its 2000 year long but I can give it a shot.Matthew 5:39
"But I say to you, do not show opposition against an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other toward him also."
Notice that this is about getting a slap on the cheek. That's different from being shot at with a gun, or stabbed with a knife.

again (do not show opposition against an evil person) No one is calling the defender evil. but it does say no opposition against an evil person. If someone is trying to kill you I would call that evil lol.Show us how defending oneself from an attacker is evil.

Kind/commassionate--but refuses to show any for those in Ohio who are suffering. Even laughs at a woman who lost 2 sons to Fentanyl.Every president's accomplishments are determined by his coattails.
If he has majorities in both houses, his programs will be implemented. When Biden had his razor thin majorities in both houses, he accomplished much more than people expected he could, despite the best efforts of turncoats Manchin and Sinema to thwart his successes.
He believes he can get more done despite the narrow Republican majority in the House.
Because he was in Congress for so many years, he is probably better equipped than most to deal with compromise and negotiation, sort of like LBJ, who ushered in Medicare, Voting Rights, and other progressive policies that have helped hundreds of millions of people over the years.
Is Biden evil? Is Biden the anti-Christ? ROFL.
He was elected as the anti-Trump, precisely because he was kind, compassionate, family-friendly, gentle, good.
I voted for Biden because character counts.
I know your opinion is affected by your media choices and perhaps your preacher.Kind/commassionate--but refuses to show any for those in Ohio who are suffering. Even laughs at a woman who lost 2 sons to Fentanyl.
Family friendly? Families wouldn't even exist anymore if he got everything he wanted when it comes to abortion.
Gentle? Tell that to the political prisoners he has locked up without a trial for a protest against him.
Good? Good grief!
You may have voted for him because you think character counts, but he himself obviously thinks skin color and sexual preferences are far more important when it comes to appointing cabinet members then character, in direct opposition to what Martin Luther King once said.
Uh huh.I know your opinion is affected by your media choices and perhaps your preacher.
Just as I know my values are influenced by Pope Francis and those in the Church who share his vision, along with the Pulitzer prize award winning media i consume who use reliable primary sources, verified multiply.
But finding Biden morally and ethically superior, and his cabinet members more qualified, is a matter of reasonable intelligence, plain old common sense, and a conscience that knows the difference between right and wrong.
Pope Francis would never reduce politics to a single issue and neither will I.
Republicans tend to hang on to abortion because it is the only issue they can point to that could indicate a moral high ground--amidst the abominably bad policies they support on every other issue.
Democrats do more to prevent pregnancy before it happens. Support for health care and the ACA. Comprehensive sex education. Prescription drug coverage.
Expanded child care tax credit (sadly only for one year) that decreased child poverty by 50%.
Attempts to pass parental leave, universal preschool and more.
And the Republican approach to preventing pregnancy? As one Missouri candidate said, the aspirin between the knees.
Republican anti-life policies put many women into the situation where they see abortion as their only choice.
What? Take away what is seen as a right while your constitutional rights are ignored? Priorities.. How much money do you think it costs to not have sex before marriage? How much money does it cost for parents to talk to their children about such things?
Ideally parents would talk to their children about sex. Ideally they would transmit ethical, moral, and spiritual values to them (if they are nones) and good religious values to them if they practice a faith tradition.Everything you mentioned Democrats doing involves spending big time taxpayer money. How much money do you think it costs to not have sex before marriage? How much money does it cost for parents to talk to their children about such things? Why are those items not listed in what Democrats have done?
