I see. So you still believe that we should work out the problem of "left vs. right"
You might be too convinced there's just two sides, and everything's polarized, Gary. I was pointing out earlier that that's just wrong. The "T" position, remember?

Re: The Democrat Party Hates America
Ah! I see. Thank you for the clarification. How would YOU like ME to regard you? You seem very well versed on the Bible, in terms of me, I sort of think of you as a Bible Scholar, someone who I might consult if I wanted to know what the Bible said about something. Would you like me to see you differently?Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 5:54 pmIs there something relevant in that (cynically worded) question?

Re: The Democrat Party Hates America
I'd believe your protest, if you weren't saying "your wish is to be." The implication is, obviously, that you don't regard me as credible in that respect, and surmise that I have some desire to pose as one, nonetheless. Your intention is a little insulting, of course, but fails to sting because I'm content to know what I know, and to know that God knows what I know or fail to know. What you know about that is not a matter of great concern to me; why should it be? You, yourself do not, to my knowledge, claim to have insight as to who is one and who is not...is that not so?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 6:04 pmAh! I see.

Therefore, if you find my answers regarding the Bible forthcoming and exact, then maybe you'll decide you think I'm one...and maybe not. That will be up to you.
So just ask your question.

Re: The Democrat Party Hates America
OK. So how would you like me to think of you? Would, "person who knows a lot about the Bible be sufficient"? Or perhaps I should revise it to "person who knows more about the Bible than I do"? Would that work? I'm trying to figure out how I should think of you.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 6:29 pmI'd believe your protest, if you weren't saying "your wish is to be."

What makes you think that wars can't be stopped through diplomacy instead of "overpowering force"?

Let me tell you how a war to end one war would work in theory. Let’s say the squirrels have instigated a war against the field mice.

Is that like when Bush invaded Panama in 1989 and then when Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990 Bush came to the heroic rescue of Kuwait, which started the whole US/Iraq feud?
