    Jesus isn't a "liberal". Jesus told us to follow the narrow path and to repent (change) from sin. Jesus doesn't support multiple sex partners, smoking meth, abortion, p*rn, homosexual lifestyles, so-called "transgendersm", divorce on a whim, alcoholism, nor a host of other things.

    Most on the left are leftists, not "liberals". Unlike liberals, leftists want to dictate how everybody lives, what they can eat, drink, smoke, and read. And unlike leftists, liberals believe in freedom, freedom of speech, respect for laws and for others, and free, fair, and honest elections. Liberals also support truth, unlike leftists whose love, loyalty, and devotion are to serving their party masters just like how American leftists serve their masters in the Washington Establishment.

    I don’t think Jesus said anything about transgenderism or abortion.

    He did say some stuff about judge not lest ye be judged.

    I am
    Not but I have studied the Bible. As far as I’ve seen there is nothing about transgenderism
    In the Bible while “judge not lest ye be judged” is in the Sermon on the Mount.

    What group does not want to let people smoke mj, taking books away, does not want to let same sex couples get married, let a woman decide what to do about a pregnancy??

    This article simply shows what has happened since the 70’s. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2022/03/10/the-polarization-in-todays-congress-has-roots-that-go-back-decades/


    O
    f interest as well is the racial makeup of congress. Black people just can’t get elected in the house on the Republican side. Hard to get elected when a significant portion of the voters are racist a**holes.

    Completely unhinged. How does one respond to such insanity and should they even try?

    Unhinged… lol what?


    Nothing I said is inaccurate. It says right in the article how many members of congress are black from the south.

    The other 4 examples are 100% accurate. Conservatives are banning books all over the country. Stopping legalization of mar1juana where they can, tried to stop gay marriage and have said they would like to reverse the decision. Lastly taking that word you used “right” to choose for a woman.

    Yeah so unhinged bro. Your hands are shaking and can’t even perform the strokes on the keyboard to respond. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    I don’t claim to be an expert but have read much of the Bible.

    To head off if you’re going to cite Leviticus or Dueteronomy neither of those specifically mention transgender and certainly such term didn’t exist in the ancient Hebrew it was written in. As you noted Jesus says he claimed to fulfill the laws of the prophets which has been taken that the NT overrules the OT. Then Jesus’ message in the Sermon in the Mount is more important than the proscriptions in the OT.

    Great substantive conversation. I posted you then replied that you could not even respond or whatever (hands shaking too much to type). I reiterated what i said again and you responded with this.

    I guess data and facts can f*ck with some people. shrug

    The OT has two sets of the Ten Commandments. Toss one or both?
