Is that supposed to be some sort of bad word? If it is, it doesn't really work, at least not with me and others that I know.

I consider myself woke in as far as that I treat everyone how I wish to be treated. Is that not the golden rule found in the Bible?
That is not what 'woke' means.

I realize that, but my definition of woke for "myself" is that.

Woke is the dialectic that everything in life is about racism, and the word began to be used in black culture.
It has become an extremely divisive word, an us versus them type of tribalism. And it demands a violent response when a woke person encounters what is thought of as not woke.

Again, I know what it means. It is not the big bad boogeyman word that Republicans make it out to be.

What I said is, "I consider myself woke in as far as that I treat everyone how I wish to be treated. Is that not the golden rule found in the Bible?" To me, that is the core of what woke means. Doesn't matter what race you are, what gender you are, etc, I will treat you as I want to be treated.

Thank you for your opinion. I do disagree with it.


This is the general theme, that God has put into the hearts of the leaders of this world to fulfil His will until the end when all the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the whole world is also in agreement at that time, united against the Lord and His Christ to fight against heaven at the final battle of Armageddon which is the end of this age

12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

Whole chapter

Revelation 17​

King James Version​

17 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

My disagreement is that it is just Democrats doing it. It's both sides as far as I am concerned.

There's more to a candidate than whether they agree with pro-choice or not. I won't vote for a single issue, I vote for many issues.

Yes, I am a moderate Democrat and yes, I am a Christian.
You vote for the baby murderers?

I am a moderate Democrat and have voted for both Republicans and Democrats. I very plainly laid it out that I am more than a one-issue voter. There is more to voting than whether or not a candidate is pro-choice.

I myself don't believe in abortion for myself or who I am with. I allow others to make their own choices, even if that is not the choice I would make. I have seven kids. That should be proof enough that I don't believe in abortion for myself or who I am with.

If you vote for baby murderers it will be YOUR problem on Judgment Day.

Nope, not at all. I am secure in my salvation. As I have said, there is more than abortion as an issue that we need to look at as a whole.

However, thanks for your opinion.

Murdering babies is a SERIOUS matter. It can lead you to Hell fire. Do you even believe in Hell fire?

I certainly do. As I said, I am secure in my salvation.
No doubt, lots of baby murdering Dems are secure, for now. Soon they will stand before Jesus and be sentenced to "everlasting fire".
