POLITICAL THREAD

I see Kamala is appearing on Howard Stern's show this Tuesday. Think Howard will ask her if she wants him to throw bologna on her ass or if she likes to the smell of her own farts?

She's also appearing on Stephen Colbert.

In. The. Tank.

i like baseball but have lost interest over the years. i spent many, many afternoons and evenings at riverfront stadium back in the 70’s. i still watch the reds on tv when i can

IMO, baseball is a lot better watching in-person but I miss being able to watch StL every game. But, I'll watch the playoffs and WS regardless.

 

[AustinTXCat]

False. Common sense is much better. How does the Bible help with gun laws and mass shootings. I don’t remember Jesus preaching on that. Maybe I also missed Jesus talking about social security and other important topics.

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

Worrh a reminder. Massive poll.

How long before she announces she will be interviewed by Joy Reid?

SNL been bad for years, but getting better. With the Dems, jokes write themselves.

Haven't watched since the 90s but I may give it another try.

? Why can't one think he was just a sociologist with interesting ideas? You're saying the teachings of Jesus are something "a mental patient" with "ZERO logical sense" came up with? Why follow them then?

Because he said that's what he was. If you don't believe that he was, then he was obviously insane.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Come on Padres.

NBC is a joke.

NBC has been a joke for decades.

 

[sambowieshin]

If you don't believe that Jesus was God incarnate on Earth, and came to absolve people of their sins, was crucified, died, and arose from the dead in order to do this, then you would be an idiot to follow the teachings of Jesus. Because he would be a mental patient.

It's a binary choice. Anthing else makes ZERO logical sense.

Not really. His examples of how to treat your fellow man are wonderful.
He doesn't advocate violence.
He does advocate for loving your neighbor, feeding the poor, treating immigrants with respect, taking care of sick, and sharing your wealth with those in need.
He would be considered a left wing Democrat today. That's why I follow his teachings and so should you.

No kidding. Any team but LA. Damn I despise that franchise.

It was the language of the day. He was a spiritual teacher there to impart spiritual lessons and said so. It doesn't have to be literal. Scripture is mostly parables; they weren't speaking in pure literalities.

 

[AustinTXCat]

Bah hahaha. Typical Democrat.

Biden pledged to campaign hard for Harris. So far, he's been mostly a no-show

When President Joe Biden ended his 2024 campaign in July and endorsed Kamala Harris, he pledged to be out campaigning for her to succeed him.

I hear she likes a good bologna pony.

What did he do?

I didn’t know they lost until I checked ESPN. As someone who hates Alabama so much, I plan on consuming a lot of their shock and tears all night.

He kicked the ball when Vandy was lining up in victory formation. He was throwing a tantrum like a 10 year old on the field.

No, he wouldn't be.

Abortion would be a deal breaker, Village Idiot.

I'm not going to debate the gospel of Jesus Christ with you two nitwits.

You can do whatever you WANT to, but you absolutely cannot be a CHRISTIAN, if you don't believe in the ressurection LOL

It is the ENTIRE point of Christianity. LOL

And pretty sure Trump checks those boxes as well.

The dude is basically a Kennedy Democrat. FFS.

I believe it was CS Lewis that said that Jesus was one of three things:

1. A liar
2. A lunatic
3. Exactly who he said he is (Son of God, Prince of Peace, etc)

I go with Option 3, myself.

Actually, Christ would be considered a right winger in todays TV political world IMO. Heck Dr. Martin Luther King would probably be looked upon as a Conservative Republican in today's politics. That's how far the needle has moved with the media in the last 50 years or so...IMO

I can name 20 Bible quotes right now from the New Testament that line up directly with Democrat policies. You'd be hard pressed to do the same for Republican policies.

Policy wise (domestic), he's practically a clone of JFK. If you don't think so then you are grossly ignorant about JFK's domestic policies. LOL

I'll beat your brains in if you really want to debate me about it.

 

[Mike-McD]

I posted this in the other thread and you got silenced, so here we go again

The weather is not the climate. Every single weather event isn't bc of some sort of climate change. This is where a lot of you guys veer off into it being a religion. Is Jesus the son of God, is Muhammed the prophet, is hurricane climate change.

Is climate change real? Of course. I know that's the usual shut down of "believe science!" But none of you are scientists, neither am I.

I do know in this hurricane season it's slightly behind the avg of named storms this year...the difference tho, more have just happened to move over land this year. But the largest number of landfall hurricanes was in the 1800s. The most intense hurricane in Florida was in the 30s.

My point, science isn't a belief. And so your repeated behavior of shouting "science denier" when you aren't interested in science is no different than when a religious person gets their dogma tested.

It's a religion void of real conversation about the real issues of climate

BTW, this congressman produces less C02 than 99% of the population the way he lives especially compared to the jet hopper testifying here

hahahahahaha

The same "science dudes" that believe men can get pregnant, that babies in the womb are just "clumps of tissue," that electric cars cause less pollution than gas cars (they cause MORE), that a man who dresses in drag is exactly the same as a woman.

LOL these idiots.

You want to know the hilariously ironic thing about politics from JFK through NIxon?

The left adored JFK, and hated Nixon, but JFK governed essentially like a conservative Republican, and Nixon governed more like a liberal Democrat. It's just that people are too stupid to realize it.

I am sure you know the Cards lead the NL with 11 WS titles. Dodgers have seven. With all the money the Dodgers spend these days, I'd like to keep that margin.

Absolutely not. MLK was a socialist:

“I imagine you already know that I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic… [Capitalism] started out with a noble and high motive… but like most human systems it fell victim to the very thing it was revolting against. So today capitalism has outlived its usefulness.”

And another since I consider myself a democratic socialist:

“Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children.”

Stop responding to him. He frequents idiot sites that make stupid stuff up about the Bible. He knows nothing. You're just wasting your time.

Not in today's media world.

 

[HymanKaplan]

MLK Jr. was a fence sitter. He said Capitalism was obsolete, but he detested socialism and communism. He was a minister/Christian, but fathered more illegitimate children than Shawn Kemp. LOL

So, like I said, he was whatever the audience at the time WANTED him to be. LOL
