    IOW, what their religion says is completely meaningless and mutable to fit whatever they want it to fit. You are just demonstrating what a fraud religion is.

    Of course, when Trump says it, the reaction is: "of course we're not great". True hatred of America.

    You seem fine with scolding those who us who point out Xtian hypocrisy re: their proclaimed beliefs versus what they say about various political issues that contradict those beliefs.

    So far as I've seen, though, you seem silent when it comes to Xtians telling us non-believers that our political POVs are informed by lack of morality and godliness, that we believe in going around killing babies and want to persecute Xtians and force them to violate their beliefs by making cakes for gay couples.

    Then you have missed many of my posts defending separation of church and state by those claiming we "took prayer out of the schools," that freedom of religion and establishment of religion do not apply to the states, etc. Those are factual issues I usually limit myself to discussing. Somebody claiming abortion is immoral is an opinion not cannot be shown to be factually wrong. To those who have posted that abortion is murder I have responded by saying it is not legally murder because it does not meet the elements of laws against murder.

    You seem to remember my posts you disagree with more than those with which you might agree.

    Your "in other words" has nothing to do with my words. I clearly said that to many their religion is serious and they do not change it to mean whatever they choose. I know people who do not engage in certain behavior because they think it violates their religious views.

    Although not religious myself, I do not think religion is the fraud but the way humans choose to practice it. They are the frauds, not religion. There are many good principles contained in most all religions that would make the world and the people in it a better place.

    'Snowflake ' is a term used by pseudo-toughies in order to try to boost their macho cred.

    It doesn't belong in YOUR vocabulary, spindle-legs. Haw, haw.............................haw.

    In earl's defense I don't think he hates America as much as he hates many Americans..

    He believes it's ok for him to hate this or that about the country, but not others whose politics/faith/color (fill in blank) he hates or disagrees w/..

    Maybe earl should take his own advice & go back to the shithole country he came from...
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
