    Public Schools, Again

    Creeps with no vested interest in the school curriculum would watch videos of the school if they were publicly available. I think it only reasonable that parents or legal guardians be given access to recordings of classrooms where their children attend. And if we entrust the recordings in the...

    The pride of men

    Seems like there is a lot of confusion over something that has a clear example in the Lord Jesus. No one in history had more cause than Jesus did to be prideful. But he came demonstrating the greatest humility. Philippians 2:5-8 "5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset...

    The pride of men

    Yes, there is good pride, I have seen it. Pride in a family member can be considered an expression of Love. The Father is proud of Jesus? "This is my son in whom I'm well pleased, listen to him.". Do you take pride in the accomplishments of someone else's child, I couldn't care less myself...

    Will Bidens DOJ Charge And Prosecute Donald J. Trump With Insurrection For Jan 6th, In Final Attempts To Remove Him From His 2024 Presidential Bid?

    Yes that is the intention, and several states will attempt to remove him from the ballot due to the accusation and bog down the campaign with needing to file lawsuits that have to be appealed due to corrupt judges that fail to uphold due process.

    The pride of men

    I did not mean to imply you are arrogant. I have been conflating all those definitions and not given much through to it. When I am accused of being arrogant I wasn't sure if I should consider it a lie or sound judgement. Either way it is a lie or a vain affirmation.

    The pride of men

    This is pride and confidence, what about arrogance? Or is that just a word for pridefulness?

    Is Hillary Clinton In Violation Of The Espionage Act Regarding Her Private Servers And Devices In Handling "Top Secret" Information?

    It isn't like we have a clause in our constitution that guarantees equal protection of the law. If we did then prosecutors wouldn't have prosecutorial discretion. But the sons and daughters of the devil protect their own.

    Alligator sneak into family home in the middle of the night

    That's pretty cool. I've heard they can be food motivated, and can see how they would associate a human with food when they always bring it something to eat. Then they get into a mood that is to chase and bite, fingers are bonus points.

    Alligator sneak into family home in the middle of the night

    It is amazing, I've heard that Alligators personality is to literally bite the hand that feeds it. Monitor lizards are less inclined to attack, but maybe that is because they are smarter and typically hunt things smaller than them. But the monitor lizard's intelligence is still pretty low...

    God or Satan?

    If you received a warning and then it worried you enough to pray about it, then it didn't happen. It could be that was exactly what God intended. If you hadn't prayed perhaps you would have died.

    ‘I SAID, YOU ARE GODS’?

    We are not multiple Gods or gods, but multiple people representing the same God... As someone who has the Holy Spirit living in me I can say he does guide, but not necessarily with an audible voice like those in Moses day heard. If not for the Holy Spirit interpretation of the Scriptures...

    Editing

    Lambano isright I was looking at the wrong thing under permissions. There is no limit on when you can edit public posts. Conversations are 5 minutes, normally.

    Editing

    5 minutes is the standard, but if you want to be given more time I can increase it.

    Jesus Christ or Allah of Islam Which One Is The True God

    Jesus would surely react if a person in his day said "peace be upon him'" as Muslims do with the mention of his name. The response would likely be similar to the woman at the well when he asked for water. Who will give Jesus peace? Who can council the Lord? Jesus' peace belongs to him and he...

    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    Seems fitting, if not a bit simplistic. Read into it what you wish. The whale is still a creature that swims in the abyss, not a good place to be.

    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    I was pointing out the difference between denying service and segregation. There can be no segregation at all when using the argument for religious exemption.

    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    Segregation requires two or more different services based on class. This would not be segregation because providing the service at all would be proof that it isn't a firmly held religious belief.

    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    Legal precedent (should) take a back seat to written laws. Association for the purposes of speech is inclusionary. While descrimination excludes, and would not be as clearly implied by the first amendment. I'm not sure what sort of argument could be made for freedom of dissociation, but...

    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    Good point about freedom of association, however it is not explicitly stated in the bill of rights but inferred as part of the first amendment. For other countries it is explicitly stated as a right, so laws against descrimination could conceivably be against their founding documents. A web...
