To what extent are babies innocent? Eve was probably innocent at one stage but she was never a baby. Adam similarly. God could have impregnated Eve once the forbidden fruit was consumed and no, I know He only told Adam that but Adam ate the stuff too so was guilty enough to transmit sin to each and every baby thenceforth ..where was I? Oh yes, God could have done it with Eve and murdered that child (at any age I suppose) but He didn't.

John 7:40-43 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee? Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? So there was a division among the people because of him.

And there's the reason. David had not been born yet so Salvation was impossible. Whether Adam and Eve were Homo habilis or some type of pitheciine (they just make these words up) is irrelevant. David could even be a butterfly – the point is that for Jesus to exist, David needed to exist and that was not the case for Adam.

I'm hearing from a lot of Church members that Democrats are soft on crime - the Achilles heel of liberals. They can always find endless excuses for criminals who are irredeemably bad guys that need to be locked away.

Then they turn around and endlessly pursue Americans who voted with their feet on January 6th and stormed into the Capitol. Where's the famous liberal softness now? It's liberal bias, that's what it is. Soft on crime and biased on crime.

The arbitrary way liberals think is maddening. Cities were all but burned to the ground during Black Lives Matter. It was "just frustrated people." But when citizens enter a building they already own it's a crime and good people like Steve Bannen will be sent to jail.

Republican candidates need to point this out to voters.

So far as I know, there is no prohibition in the Republican Platform to ban drag shows. We need it there.

The upstart nobody who is running against President Trump to be the Republican Presidential nominee, Florida Govenor Desantis, is now trying to upstage Trump by cracking down on drag shows. Trump has never said he likes drag shows, but Desantis is pretending he is the most Godly and patriotic candidate by complaining about them.

If Trump were President at this moment, there would be no drag shows anywhere.

Really I think what we need to do is replace the GOP's written platform with the KJV Bible. That would ensure that everything is covered. Then if someone says "what's our position on crossdressing" we'd only have to say "Deuteronomy 22:5." It's not like we'd have anything on our platform that contradicts God's law - that's for the Democrats to do.

One wonders why this hasn't been done before? I suspect it is the arrogance of liberalism that sees itself above religion while adopting and usurping many of its core truths. If there were no Bible there would be no secular law - how else would we know not to kill eachother or make clothing out of more than one material? Without the Bible underpinning secular law, there would be chaos. Altering the law is the height of human conceit - can you imagine the level of delusional egomania needed to elevate a human construct above something written down by a supernatural being? Republicans run the terrible risk of losing my vote if they continue along the secular path.

One idea I've heard is to ask the criminals what laws are lacking, to prevent them from offending. I'm sure they don't want to be locked up and if by introducing more prohibitions they could be spared that indignity, everyone would benefit from the reductions in temptations leading to harm.

This is a marvelous idea, Sister. The prison industrial complex needs to be more responsive to its customers else we're no better than a Soviet totalitarian regime dishing out the same drab punishments for the same old subversive activities decade after dreary decade, aka socialism. The free market should do better, and would do if we could rein in all the oppressive regulations.

There's probably not much point surveying the penitentiary/prison/jail population: they've already lost the plot. Others though, embarrassed by social ambiguity and seeking to fit in with normal people, opt for a nice suit and up-to-date transport options. They make whatever sacrifice is needed to keep the latest models in their garages and/or hangars but, I feel, would prefer more things being illegal to reduce temptations others are blessed to have escaped. Or never had in the first place.

Perhaps the survey could place discreet questionnaires at appropriate dealerships? A tailor or couturier would be other locations to engage in this beneficial research and I'd be happy to volunteer.

Yes! Exactly! Honestly, Mr. Much, just when I think that you are devoid of sense, you post something that suggests you really do "get" us here at Landover Baptist.

Boy is our finger not on the pulse of the American people. We did not see the most pressing need of the country is to defund the IRS. That's why these guys get the big bucks, and we don't do.

Didn't Jesus say, “Render unto Caesar..?”

Julius was already deceased by the time Christ's ministry kicked off – but he declined any promotion to Emperor. Perhaps being styled PERPETUAL DICTATOR prevented that. Say if I were a perpetual bird, it would prevent me from becoming a horse. Anyway, next up was Augustus who (being unencumbered with a perpetual title in this respect) was able to attain Imperial status and later, as Jesus grew up, Tiberius took over. He was followed by Caligula in 37 and the Caesars continued on until Hadrian in 138, the salient feature here being that none of them were socialists.

Would the leftist agenda be endorsed by God in the same way as the Caesars' had been? So many enlightened positions directly contradict God and certainly this pair

suggesting an alternative fiscal agenda than prevails now. I called them enlightened ideas, but they're not really enlightened, are they. Esther 8:6

"Fourth Reich Invades Israel" is a headline I'd really like to see. Is that something we can do something about?

[MitzaLizalor]

Hadn't New York already done that?
