Drive with care

Spider trap

Wishing this also worked on conservative 2025 pests, but they aren't mentioned.

By 2003 the reliable GOP people had retired. The few mavericks were still voting only party line 99.9% of the time.

The incredulous thing is how so many see no issue. It is a blindness that can only be explained by a spiritual blockage in these people's hearts and minds.

Dunno, unlike the civil rights marches, there is no good will in the Republican ranks today to respond in the necessary way. This isn't merely a rogue individual, its an entire party refusing at every level to act for all citizens.
I can only say people today aren't like their 1930s counterparts

I was doing weekly current events in the late 70s for middle school. I couldn't fathom then how we could arrive at this mess. No one would believe this police state condition could exist in America.

a polar bear is riding down a snow covered slope . ALT: a polar bear is riding down a snow covered slope .

I think we see the snowball which got pushed over the everest hilltop in November has sped recklessly every week.

Yep, they dont believe they should be as outraged as they need to be, the conservative gestapo has done their job so well to quell an uprising.
Like watching Soylent Green or 1984.

There are issues with the evangelical theology worldwide. This US version currently is infecting UK, Australia, and some other countries. The major issue worldwide is the oversimplification of complex modern differences from a supposed simple worldview.

I'll keep the Holy Spirit Jesus provides so i can discern truth in both scriptures and people's words/actions.

The scriptures are a resource, Jesus is the authority, His Holy Spirit the guide. Testing all things prayerfully laying discernment through the Spirit.

Professing by many is merely lip service like they are members of a country club.

TBH, anyone who now identifies as evangelical should be soul searching if they are supporting any facet of conservativism and nationalism as part of their beliefs.

Well let's remember most western self-identified Christians are practicing 'hereditary' religion. That is, they haven't come to Jesus in need of saving like the thief on the cross. They are closer to merely practicing the family religion as a rote life chore not an inward choice.

It's my understanding that congressional fact finding is being stymied by the administration and its lackeys and failed backing from Congress to enforce access.

The Trump Commerce Dept under Lutnick isn't credible.

Correct. Even in the first century there were groups claiming doctrines not agreeing with Jesus teaching... they were called heretics. They were NOT part of the body of Jesus' church.

Those aren't followers of Jesus Christ. They want to leave the earth because Jesus is coming back. Jesus talks about those taken... but those taken are the unforgiven. The reference is Noah was saved in the ark God bade him build, the rest were swept 'away'.

Lol... not Christians... they are Xians... Jesus Christ has no part in their delusional thinking.

Jesus talked about his return, not about a rapture.

I was in one of the churches that learned its lesson about such false teaching 30 years ago. Jesus shook it apart.

Why do you think we went into Kuwait and Afghanistan? War redirects the consciousness of people.

Many modern self-identified Christians are much like 1st century Jews who lived under the hereditary family religion going thru the 'necessary' motions.
Thats not how Jesus' gospel works. You cannot inherit Jesus, you have to come to Him.

People choose how they respond to religions call. I see many modern self-identified Christians much like 1st century Jews who lived under the hereditary family religion going thru the 'necessary' motions.
Thats not how Jesus' gospel works. You cannot inherit Jesus, you have to come to Him.

This is full of truth.

This is the state of modernized conservative religion. Edit Jesus out of the core consciousness decisions. Creationists rarely evoke Jesus only 'God' and 'Bible thumpers' leave context of Jesus parables far behind. Non-believers meanwhile think Jesus should control them, rejecting Jesus too.

Its called project 2025, control the media.

Hitler too had mandatory programs to instill national pride.

Many fascist, socialist, and communist regimes who held power used such programs.

Man has used work conscription many times, from ancient Egypt and China to South America and India. The strong rule the weak by excuse.

Lol, Florida State, Miami, and Syracuse aren't going away this season.

Dunno, he's already on record making '10 is enough' his measure. The problem is leadership. He's been coasting, acting like he's safe. Fans have caught on.

Nah, I'm a Clemson fan but they're gonna drop 1-2 more. Dabo's words this week gonna bite him in the ass. He's essentially said he doesn't care, 'winning 10 is enough' and thats not gonna happen. He's been coasting for years when you look back to how he use to be.
