Lord, please show your power and might in Charlottsville today

[reagansghost]

God won't answer the prayers of Qless cocksuckers who hate their fellow man. Sad.

our Lord and Savior obviously endorsed Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, Moscow Mitch, MJT, Gym Jordan, Little Marco, Ivanka Trump, Steven Miller, Steve Bannon, Jared Kushner, etc etc etc....all wielding power in His chosen nation, the Great American Cesspool of His hateful followers

 

[Son of the Revolution]

liberals are cesspool creatures

As the statues of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson are torn down in Charlottsville Virginia today, I pray that an event will occur in that city that can only come from the power of God Almighty.

I believe it can and will happen IF White Americans in that city and elsewhere will confess our sins and will pray to God for our removal of prayer and Bible reading from the public schools of our land, and for our worship of the corrupt black man.

Let it be, Lord.

You are the classic case of having you mind poisoned with Trumpian Right Wing Christianity; Right Wing Christianity being a distorted and twisted form of Christianity that is designed to indoctrinate its believers with extreme GOP ideology, and not for teaching brotherly love.

sad liberals are trying to erase their history of racism... democrats were the ones that started the civil war because they wanted to keep their slaves... democrats founded the kkk

ROFLMAO. Obviously not. Mankind is responsible for his own fuckups. Blaming it on God is for spineless cowards, criminals, cucks and cunts.

Common ground. I agree that erasing history is wrong. Better, IMO, to put it into context and make it a learning experience.

That can be done by adding statues and markers, not hiding old ones.

statues of slavers and traitors to their nation are not needed in the public square

may as well erect statues of John Dillinger, maybe a Timothy McVeigh or a Night Stalker while we're at it, toss in Charles Manson and the Hillside Strangler, nothing wrong with Al Capone...we need to learn from our history and not hide it, right?

 

[Jade Dragon]

Wow, someone doesn't know God's stance on slavers. Try reading the plaques of Egypt. Then take a lesson in idolatry for the statue obsessions.

History belongs to everyone. Destroying it is stupid and sets us up to repeat it. What makes you any different than the Holocaust deniers?

History Repeating

Variations on the repeating-history theme appear alongside debates about attribution. Irish statesman Edmund Burke is often misquoted as having said, “Those who don’t know history are destined to repeat it.” Spanish philosopher George Santayana is credited with the aphorism, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” while British statesman Winston Churchill wrote, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Lessons from the past may not always ward off doom, but they can provide insights into the present and even the future.

so if we take a statue of RE Lee down that makes us more likely to see another one of these world class traitors?

any statues of Benedict Arnold around?

Ignore the point, but you are no better than Trump's Qless IMO because you are destroyers, not builders.

Much of these statues are hardly historic though and are later installs. You'd be surprised at the lack of age on some.

True, but doesn't that period of racism and Jim Crow need to be remembered and learned from?

Again, better to build than to destroy. Build around the statue to give it context, to make it a good place of learning about hate, prejudice and dividing Americans.

All you've achieved by this is removing the history. Now plant some flowers and forget all about it since you've helped erase that deplorable history.

yep, trying to destroy the GQP's evil empire and rebuild some semblance of democracy

it's called patriotism, Fox addict

.

if we want to learn anything from theses slavers and traitors our schools should cover it in American History classes..............CRT

Learn from the Germans you should. They don't have statues of Nazi's they have them of victims of the history.

White evangelical support for Donald Trump wasn't about partisanship -- it was about animus toward minorities

white evangelical Protestant vote went to former President Donald Trump in 2020, it is more important than ever for the American public to face the uncomfortable truth about the authoritarian Christian right's deleterious impact on society, culture and politics.

The statue of a Confederate general that helped spark a violent white supremacist rally in Charlottesville in 2017 was removed on Saturday after a long legal battle.

So much for your heritage, theses statues should've never been raised in the first place?!!

P.S. The army bases named after confederate generals, will be changed shortly too!
