Let Me Say What’s On My Mind

[Texas Conservative]

Texas Conservative:

   I just now connected to your Link regarding Jimmy Carter approving of gay [homosexual] marriage. You are completely correct. He did make that statement, and even said he thinks Jesus would approve it.

    Jimmy is a stance Baptist, so his statements are shocking to me, especially in light of God condemning such immoral sexual behavior. Now I know more about Jimmy Carter. I pray he has since changed his "doctrine" to coincide with what his God says.

Thanks for sharing,

Buff

Many times people's politics influence their religious beliefs instead of the Bible influencing their politics.

Cuomo insulted our eyes with his pierced nipples while he sat in front of the nation, on TV, boasting how he was handling the covid crisis better than any other governor, and flew into a rage when people questioned him about his failures, and spewed lie after lie - but no, he's not a narcissist. You don't see it because your tv didn't tell you he was a narcissist.

Don't even get me started on the rest of them.

I despise even looking at him and his brother. His inflated ego is much worst than the President, at least President Trump has things that he has accomplished, that would cause pride to work at a greater level than in most men. Cuomo, whose face looks more like a road map of New York City has very little to cause him to think he's somebody. And Yes, he really insulted my eyes with his pierced nipples~oh please, give us a break.

Sadly - all too true.

Georgia was won by the Dems because of the same fraud they pulled off in the Presidential elecrion with the help of Dominion and the Chinese. The CCP selected our leaders this time around, and would have in 2016, but no one figured Hillary would need any help beating Trump. The powers to be DID assume they had to cheat in 2020, but they almost screwed up when Trump blew up the algorithm in the machines with his vote leads, and they all had to shut down to “adjust” in the wee hours of election night in the battleground states to switch votes. This was described and SHOWN in detail by the forensic expert in Mine Lindell’s video, every step of the way. Wasn’t it great when we thought WE selected our leaders!

By the way in the video of the Mike Lindell thread, a cyber forensics expert showed that Trump got 79 million votes to Biden’s 68 million if all the switched votes were switched back. The forensic analysis showed the IP address of who in what country (mostly China) did it, date and time stamp, and what voting precinct in what county was involved. It showed the routing of the servers in which countries the servers were involved. It was a GLOBAL effort. The trick is to get the evidence heard in a court with all the cancelling going on. It will take a judge with gonads as big as Lindell’s to put himself/herself in the limelight. No one can say there is no evidence. There was no red wave against Trump or his “behavior”. We already know that SCOTUS, the “court of last” has shown their butts as the court of NO resort.

Someday a TV series script or book will be written about the happenings of the 2020 election and the truth will be much stranger than any fiction.

By that time, the communist government will be so entrenched that, even if it is written, it won't be allowed to be released in this country.  That is how communism works.

Buff, I would have thought with your anti-global warming stance, that you would be a Trump believer.

And shouldn't this thread be in the politics section?

[Reformer]

e.r.m:

    "Buff, I would have thought with your anti-global warming stance, that you would be a Trump believer."

    I voted for Trump both times, in spite of his being a narcissist, one who has a self-inflated ego and must be fed chronically. "His importance and self-esteem are higher than the heavens. Attention must be directed to him lest he feel neglected," is one of the definitions.

    I had two choices, Trump or a die-hard liberal. Even as Trump was politicking the first time, I publicly "diagnosed" him as a narcissist. Yes, he did a great lot of good for our country. But his personality defects were many.

Thank you for clarifying.

Even if anyone were try to pull a Fidel Castro or Hugo Chavez on the United States, I don't see them being able to get congress to rewrite the Constitution, or getting the US military on their side to do a coupe.

Hey, there, e.r.m., long time no see.  Welcome back.  I hope you stick around.

The Left is rewriting the Constitution even now.  It doesn't matter what the Constitution says, it only matters how the Constitution is interpreted.  We are seeing that interpretation redefining what it means that Congress shall make "no law respecting an establishing of religion or prohibiting the free exercise there of".  Shutting down church attendance due to the China virus is but an early example of such reinterpretation.  The Left is on a role right now in "abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, etc.  And just wait till you see how the Left interprets the Constitution's statement that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed", and what comes of that reinterpretation. 

The Leftism is already infiltrating the US military.  It won't take a revolutionary coup. You need to read up on Cloward-Piven Socialist Strategy.  It is being implemented even today.  The China virus, and the resulting economic collapse has provided the perfect avenue for it.  The Left's proposal to forgive massive amounts of student debt, to mandate huge increases in minimum wage, to institute guaranteed annual income are but a few more Cloward-Piven induced strategies even if some of those supporting the Left do not recognize it.  The effort of the Leftists in the areas of health care, energy production are side issues, but they result in absolute control of the population by the State.  The influence of Leftism in education, in the media, in entertainment only enhance the push for full blown Statism, whether it goes by the name of Progressivism, Socialism, or Communism.

Once democrats manage to add DC and Puerto Rico as states, get rid of the electoral College and pack the Supreme Court, there will never be another republican controlled national House, Senate or Presidency.  And the military will simply do what it is told.  It knows where its funding comes from.

4WD,

Hey, there, e.r.m., long time no see.  Welcome back.  I hope you stick around.

Thank you. Not likely though. Life is dufferent these days. My efforts are focused more on youtube comments these days and even with that its intermittent. But every once in a while I like to air my thoughts here.

The Left is rewriting the Constitution even now.  It doesn't matter what the Constitution says, it only matters how the Constitution is interpreted.  We are seeing that interpretation redefining what it means that Congress shall make "no law respecting an establishing of religion or prohibiting the free exercise there of".  Shutting down church attendance due to the China virus is but an early example of such reinterpretation.  The Left is on a role right now in "abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, etc.

Churches have not been shut down. They still meet virtually for the most part and in house churches. The only thing that has been restricted are large gatherings, and even with that, I still see such large gatherings happen. On this regard, it's not politicians that are the enemy, but the virus. New Zealand has got a better control of the virus and they have been able to have larger gatherings.

And just wait till you see how the Left interprets the Constitution's statement that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed", and what comes of that reinterpretation.

The left has been in charge many times before. The most anyone has done is increase the requirements of getting a gun toward the end of keeping guns out of the wrong hands. Whatever the conspiracy may be behind what they do, that's what they've done.

The Leftism is already infiltrating the US military.  It won't take a revolutionary coup. Once democrats manage to add DC and Puerto Rico as states, get rid of the electoral College and pack the Supreme Court, there will never be another republican controlled national House, Senate or Presidency.  And the military will simply do what it is told.  It knows where its funding comes from.

What do you think the end goal is with the military? What will they be told to do? Do you think the military will violate the constitution for the sake of funding?

You need to read up on Cloward-Piven Socialist Strategy.  It is being implemented even today.  The China virus, and the resulting economic collapse has provided the perfect avenue for it.  The Left's proposal to forgive massive amounts of student debt, to mandate huge increases in minimum wage, to institute guaranteed annual income are but a few more Cloward-Piven induced strategies even if some of those supporting the Left do not recognize it.  The effort of the Leftists in the areas of health care, energy production are side issues, but they result in absolute control of the population by the State.  The influence of Leftism in education, in the media, in entertainment only enhance the push for full blown Statism, whether it goes by the name of Progressivism, Socialism, or Communism.

Forgiving massive amounts of student debt, mandating huge increases in minimum wage, and guaranteed annual income are bad ideas. The election process concerns me. Them wanting full blown statism has yet to be verified. It's still a conspiracy.

[Jaime]

Not at all ERM. They are bolder than ever before and even bolder than we feared. Their opportunity this time will not be thwarted or wasted.

[e.r.m.]

Jaime,
They have yet to say they want a full-blown statism or that they want to punish America for their sins, or that they want totalitarian control. This is said of them. So as of yet, still a conspiracy.

[Jaime]

Again, they won’t let this opportunity pass. They are moving rapidly. The Executive edicts are way beyond those of the past, even Obama who I considered very dangerous. This group is way more motivivated. Watch and see. Very soon the Senate fillibuster will be gone for good. Two more Democrat states will be added, DC and Puerto Rico. Then we will have one party rule from now on. They have no intent of unity but of dominance. They messed up in 2016 by not believing they had to steal that election. They won’t make the same mistake again.

[e.r.m.]

I will.

[Jaime]

ERM since the majority of Americans would be adamantly against an overt statist takeover, they won’t be admitting such. They will just bring it about with little to no opposition and lightning speed, and zero journalistic curiosity from their cohorts in the propaganda media OR the free speech fascists in social media. We will not have a chance ro correct course, it will just BE.

[4WD]

Where it starts is never where it ends.  Neither Lenin, nor Stalin, nor Mao, nor Castro, nor Chavez, not..... ever announced in the beginning where they would take their countries.  Statism, no matter how it starts, can only end in one place; and that because sooner or later things must be imposed, they must be forced onto the population.  If you wish to take from those who have and give it to those who haven't, eventually those who have will not give up willingly. That is where Marx got it wrong. He thought it would just happen; but it didn't and it doesn't.  It must be imposed; and that is authoritarian. That is the message of Leftism for the last 100+ years.

[4WD]

On this regard, it's not politicians that are the enemy, but the virus.

The virus didn't close a single thing nor shut anything down.  That was done by the governments using the virus as an excuse; and it matters not if some in government thought it was the right thing to do.

[Jaime]

100% true 4WD. The real virus was highjacked by the epic overreaction to the 99.9% survivable virus. Right now it’s more desireable to open our borders than it is to open our schools in some locales like Chicago. And other despicable union areas.

[e.r.m.]

I disagree with this. Much of the not meeting together in large groups is done voluntarily. Hence being the virus.

[Jaime]

But promoted by the actions of the Draconians. People didn’t just come out of nowhere on these shutdowns. They were promoted by state governments and city governments. Thank goodness the Cuomo idiocy in NYC with seeding the nursing homes with Covid patient was not wide spread in all cities. Also the fear was promoted by flipity flopity Fauci. No masks needed, yes masks, oh, but two masks, etc. i’m waiting for the triple dog mask dare!

[4WD]

4WDI disagree with this. Much of the not meeting together in large groups is done voluntarily. Hence being the virus.

None of the big box stores such their operations.  And none of the smaller businesses closed their operations voluntarily.
A large number will go out of business never to be opened again.  Lives and livelihoods have been destroyed.  None of that was voluntary.  There are churches that perhaps have tried to accommodate the presence of the virus; the church I attend is one of those.  However there are preachers being charged and prosecuted for not shutting down.  Moreover, the simple truth is that large gatherings, especially outdoor gatherings, have not shown to be virus spreaders; none of the riots that have been taking place throughout the country over the last nine months or so have not shown to be virus spreaders; none of the large Trump events have been shown to be virus spreaders.  Yet in spite of that, outdoor worship services have been harassed, outdoor sporting events have been shut off from spectators. Local. state and national parks have been closed. Schools have been closed for a full year with no scientific justification for any of it at all.  All of that is almost 100% the result of government actions.  And it is still going on.  The virus hasn't destroyed the economy; government has.  The Spanish flu pandemic in the early 1900s was far more virulent and lethal and yet the world didn't stop.

You don't think lockdown mandates, and government/media scaring the crap out of people have anything to do with this?  Between government and media, the public has been inundated with fear mongering.  It is broad in scope, instead of truthful about what groups are most likely to be at risk. 

My congregation has been assembling since June.  Those who have not been coming are those scared, and are typically those between 35-50, while all the data shows us that those 65+ are the most at risk of death.  In my congregation, most of the 65+ are still coming.

Outside of government/media propaganda, we have had lockdown orders affect gatherings of churches in states that are more liberal.  My state's governor was sued in federal court over Executive Orders, that were promptly rewritten to provide exceptions for religious gatherings, while states like New York, and California had Supreme Court rulings addressing lockdown orders on churches.
