    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Bending the view to further blame is a slippery business. In other words, you want to make it appear that because I am calling oppression out that I am equally blaming. You know that is slippery and the fact that you would use this approach reveals the principle and values by which the world...

    This is how you do it Wrangler. You edit my words to suit your argument by misrepresenting them. This is the work of a dishonest disposition. This is the process by which the Jews charged Jesus.

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Ah yes, if it's not blaming individuals like myself it's blaming something else like other nations or immigrants or it's blaming internal political parties. The reality locked onto is blame, blame, blame. Wake up guys....aren't we those who claim to follow Jesus and not The Accuser?

    You NEED to hang BLAME on someone else, in this case it's me; you need to distort and demonise..... because if you didn't you couldn't process the responsibility of the raping, the kidnapping, the child sex trafficking by your own people in your own country.

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Why don't you guys jump up and down, blow your trumpet and make a big noise about the pornography and the weapons of mass destruction produced and exported from your country to all over the world? Yes, you want to hang the responsibility of all your woes on refugees who flee their oppressive...

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Demonising someone who you don't agree with is the practice of folk who feel their own view is threatened. It's a short cut for them to not look at the implications of their own position. Why do you think the Jews needed to get rid of Jesus? It was because his reality exposed their lies. This...

    Your views above as to what I believe are right off track, what more can I say except how do you fill a cup that is full?

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Go right ahead with your justifications, however they are yours. If you don't get the point, you don't get it. Is there any point in filling a cup that is full? I have no interest in thrashing around childish games.

    Do all here know America is bankrupt?

    I've seen the homeless in Santa Monica and Skid Row. If a country can't manage its own citizens and solve basic need issues; if the finances have blown out to a point they are unrecoverable, how can they ever make good on promises delivered by a narcissist?

    Do all here know America is bankrupt?

    Not if he plans on rebuilding and owning Gaza, commandeering Greenland and taking control of the Panama Canal.....and whatever other exploits he has in mind.

    My observation Is you are threatened by anything you feel exposes you. Categorisation is your defence mechanism. It in turn reveals the short sightedness with which you approach a conversation.

    Blame is the game of the ignorant!

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    Bending it any way that suits ones narrative is a prerogative. It has however consequences the which we will answer for. Will we be found speaking well of God or not? Will we be found representing his intent or not? Will we be found using scripture to feather our own nest, prejudices, bias's...

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    It is possible to understand these texts as if they were exclusive.....which is what religious folk tend to do, however the story of the good Samaritan Jesus coined, as well as other stories in the same vane indicate that our neighbour or brothers are other children of Adam, ie the whole human...

    Here are Jesus' words in case they've been forgotten; '...and the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to me....' Matthew 25:40-45

    ICE raid on churches, have they gone too far?

    The demise of America from its lofty height, by and large is the direct result of its promotion in self seeking as it has been the demise of every World power on Earth's stage. Self seeking results in violence towards its neighbours when it perceives an advantage. This same place is where...

    What has happened to the consciousness of the American people? Here are the words printed on a plague at the base of the Statue of Liberty.... The New Colossus Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall...

    The reality spoken of and displayed in the life of Jesus who, if it has not escaped our attention, represented God in the clearest light, is that God cares more for his creatures than he does for his own life. This is the principle which governs the Universe. It is also known as The Kingdom of...
