Would you rather live in a Socialist country or an Authoritarian country?

[Truth Detector]

I would sure as hell rather be thought of as a socialist than as an unfettered capitalist as currently practiced in the United States.

Of course; you're an uneducated dumbass on steroids. Can we expect less of you?

[Truth Detector]

Just about any economic system works IN THEORY. The only failing most of them have in practice is that humans tend to be power hungry, greedy, and intolerant of others not like themselves.

No, most are failures. The best system invented by man is free market capitalism and a Constitution LIMITING the power of Government to control markets.

So YOU are the decider of FAUX Christians?

No. Christians follow Christs words. According to Christianity, all people are sinners. Christ died for our sins. All sinners can be forgiven through Christ by accepting Christ and repenting their sins. While they may still, being human, sin on occasion, they are sincerely remorseful and strive to never do it again.

OTOH, there are people who believe “Sin all week, repent on Sunday then sin all week”. They are not sincere nor remorseful. Bill Clinton was that type of faux Christian who intentionally continued to sin than asked for forgiveness on Sunday so he could sin more starting Monday. PmP and a few others are JPP examples of this behavior.

Do you think they are truly Christians?

I think they are truly HUMANS. I don't get hung up on skin color or what their faith may be. I am more interested in preserving the Constitution and liberty.

So who did you vote for in the last election?

I look at American society holistically. Agreed their skin-tone and religion are irrelevant unless someone makes it relevant like the assholes on 9/11 or Christians seeking to impose their beliefs through Federal legislation.

Dr. Jo. I’ve never voted for a Democrat for President. Except for Perot, I’ve voted Republican in every election until 2016 when I voted a straight Libertarian ticket.

Trump is the first atheist president in a long time. That is the only thing I liked about him. But his lack of faith is coupled with a lack of respect for laws and values. He is the worst of both worlds.

Wikipedia discarded on sight. You cannot use this a reference of any kind with me. I have already described why.

I assume this is a book. I assume it came from your school. I assume this is where you learned part of the wrong stuff in your school.

Franklin funded most things in his corner of the colonies through donations and matching grants, voluntarily provided by landowners at the time. It was by charity, not by theft. Do not mistake charity for theft.

Agreed on atheist…unless you count his worship of money.

That fact he lied about being an atheist should tell you something.

That old Euro logic is still there, eh neef?

It’s the old days, if a person was a criminal and it turned out he was Jewish, then that crime was used to bash all Jews. You Euros then murdered 6 million of them along with 5 million others you didn’t like.

Now it’s “if a person advocates voter suppression and cites State’s Rights” then people like you say stupid shit like “ There are no more pernicious criminals in America today than states' rights advocates.” Are you going to advocate killing me now, neef? Or just make me “disappear”?

Bigotry.
