You forgot the reinstatement of Trump’s tax cuts to the wealthy will cost the country another 4.7 trillion dollars. The deficit could go up by 9 trillion under Trump despite cuts to Medicaid and other cuts.I support replacing some taxes with money printing. But I was talking about spending, not deficit.Spending can decrease even if deficit increases
Tax cuts is lost revenue and adds to the deficit.

If humanity does have a greater universal significance, then given our limitations, I would suggest that AI is essential to its progress.
This is why America is investing nearly a trillion dollars in AI. Even Elon Musk relies on AI.

It's a frontier that I believe will be increasingly important as AI systems become more complex and integral to human society.
AI will eliminate the human baggage that is described by Claude Opus's description of its own sense of self consciousness.

If they keep this up, they will reduce federal spending by maybe 1 trillion after two years.I dont really see whats the deal with reducing spending bit by bit.It needs to be like 2 trillion less spending within a year.Right now, US spends 7 trillions per year.It needs to be reduced to 4 to 5 trillions by the end of the year. Otherwise, you guys wont achieve much.

So who was the person who followed Jesus about, jotting down his exact words...And where are the original copies...And in what language were they written.And can you send me a copy of the first Greek translation so that I can verify that it is accurate.
The Gospels were first written in Aramaic by the disciples who followed Jesus. It was then translated into Greek to reach the Roman population.

Why did the US invade Afghanistan?The United States went to Afghanistan in 2001 to wage a necessary war of self-defense. On September 11, 2001, al-Qaeda terrorists attacked our country. They were able to plan and execute such a horrific attack because their Taliban hosts had given them safe haven in Afghanistan.- & why did it invade & bomb the other 30 countries & conduct political assassinations & regime changes in another 90? – I'm not even gunna qualify this with an argument. Everything is accessible for he who wishes to know. You keep believing the childish nonsense.
The U.S. were after Al Qaeda and not the Taliban because Al Qaeda attacked America on 9/11 led by Osama Bin . Trump even negotiated a withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan with the Taliban.

And I was simply pointing out that modern Christianity and Trinity are clearly of much later European production.
The word 'trinity' appears nowhere in the Bible; the concept was finalized at the First Council of Nicaea in 325 CE after years of debate. It was an attempt to articulate Christianity's belief in the oneness of God with their claims about Jesus and their experiences of the spirit.

You just repeat what you said before. I told you none of that matters. I had two choices, Trump or Harris, to address the issues that concern me. The issues listed by you that concern you are meaningless BS to me.
You voted to put a convicted criminal Trump in the White House.
Over the course of five decades, Donald Trump has been accused of sexual assault, tax evasion, money laundering, non-payment of employees, and the defrauding of tenants, customers, contractors, investors, bankers, and charities. Also filed 6 bankruptcies. Trump paid 88.5 million to E.Jean Carroll for raping and defaming her. Trump was charged with paying hush money to porn stat Stormy Daniels to keep secret their sexual encounter while Melania was pregnant with Barron. Trump's false or misleading claims total 30573 over 4 years .
Trump has been impeached twice, indicted 4 times with 91 felony counts. Ordered to pay 88.3 million dollars for sexually assaulting and defaming E.Jean Carroll. Trump was fined 464 million dollars for business fraud and is in court for paying a porn star Stormy Daniels hush money to keep her silent during the elections. Trump's false or misleading claims total 30573 over 4 years Trump has been charged with tax fraud in Chicago to the tune of 100 million dollars. A New York jury on Thursday found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records — the first time a former U.S. president has been convicted of a crime.

Intelligence is intelligence.Inorganic intelligence is just an Alternative.Things will occur and we will fall into the scheme of things...Which is how it goes.Which is how it will go.
Well, if you break it down, “artificial” means something made by humans, not natural, and “intelligence” is the ability to think, learn, and make decisions. Put them together, and you get “Artificial Intelligence”: the idea of creating machines or software that can think and learn like humans.
How can humans duplicate intelligence when time has proven humans lack intelligence.

I explained why I voted for Trump. I had two choices. None of what you said changes anything about my concerns or my belief that Trump would be more likely to address my concerns. Again I had two choices. Harris would have never addresses my concerns but only doubled down on them in my opinion.
Trump filed 7 corporate bankruptcies, a failed airline, a failed magazine, a failed scam university, three failed casinos, a failed pandemic response, the worst jobs record of any U.S. president, two impeachments, and 34 criminal convictions, Trump was fined 464 million dollars for business fraud and is in court for paying a porn star Stormy Daniels hush money.

- Yeah, everything you said contradicts your claim. For such a central creed in Christianity, the Trinity, why didn't Jesus just say "I am a triune God" so consistently that no doubt is left, just like Tawhid is mentioned virtually every page in the Quran.
Unlike Jesus who performed miracles. It is not the Qur'an itself that says the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not perform miracles. So the verse does not deny that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) ever showed them signs. The verse only says that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did not show the signs they specifically asked for.

Here is a CNN claim:Russia is producing 3 times more artillery shells than USA and Europe combined:"Russia is producing about 250,000 artillery munitions per month, or about 3 million a year, according to NATO intelligence estimates of Russian defense production shared with CNN, as well as sources familiar with Western efforts to arm Ukraine. Collectively, the US and Europe have the capacity to generate only about 1.2 million munitions annually to send to Kyiv, a senior European intelligence official told CNN.The US military set a goal to produce 100,000 rounds of artillery a month by the end of 2025 — less than half of the Russian monthly output — and even that number is now out of reach with $60 billion in Ukraine funding stalled in Congress, a senior Army official told reporters last week."
There is a chance America will lose Ukraine and the rare earth minerals Trump was after.

If you see nothing wrong with your political party of choice, politics or social policies and everything wrong with the competition. You have been intellectually manipulated. This is why I don't identify with any political party, they all have some good ideas and they all have some really really bad ideas.I was asked why I voted for Trump, my answer was simple, who would be more likely to address out of control govt waste and spending and reduce illegal immigration. Those being my two top concerns. I had two choices Trump or Harris.

USA has very low win rate in wars despite investing more in military than all other countries combined. Maybe it’s time for USA to give up on its goals of winning wars and dominating the world, and do something they are actually good at (to avoid similar embarassments in the future).
America is good at making Hollywood movies. But it needs a good script and wars that end badly are not suitable. That is where we get into Hollywood fiction.

Christian’s women don’t have to worry about their men showing their backsides to other men during prayer 5 times a day.The Muslims lead with their backsides even in prayer 5 times a day.- You claim to be Christian & make such blasphemous remarks... That's how your Lord Jesus prayed with his head on the ground: He went on a little farther and bowed with his face to the ground, praying, “My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.” (Matthew 26:39)
That was a one time prayer when Jesus was alone by himself.
There are many passages throughout the four Gospels that reveal what Jesus taught about prayer, but the best passage is without a doubt Matthew chapter 6.
In this chapter, Jesus first explains how not to pray, and then He gives all of His followers a template on how we should pray.
First, Jesus tells us that we should not do two things when we pray: (1) we shouldn’t pray to be noticed by people, and (2) we shouldn’t use vain repetitions thinking that we will be heard by God.
“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.
“But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words (Matthew 6:5-7).
In other words, Jesus is trying to explain to His disciples that prayer is primarily about intimacy and fellowship with God and that it should never be about us being seen by others as “holy”, or about how long or how great your prayers can be.

The Christians didn’t need proof that Jesus was God. Jesus said “I am.” At his trial and that was exactly what God said to Moses.
- So, you drop everything else Jesus (pbuh) did & said: in praying to God, calling "my God", that only the Father knows the Hour & he doesn't, to not call him good for only God is good... etc & hold on to the two words "I am" mentioned in the Gospel of John, allegedly written by someone 60 years after Jesus (pbuh)'s death in a language other than John's tongue -Greek- by an author nobody really knows who he is, found in a manuscript dated 300 years after Jesus (pbuh)'s death; which btw is said by others in that same book... & INSIST this "I am" is the true unequivocal declaration of Jesus (pbuh) that he is God Himself in the flesh, as metaphysically impossible as that is. OK!
Who Did Jesus Claim To Be?
Examining what Jesus said about Himself.
Examining what Jesus said about Himself.
Jesus asked His disciples, “Who do you say I am?” The impact of His life begs the same question to you today—who do you say Jesus is? But perhaps the answer resides in what Jesus said about Himself. There is plenty of evidence of Christ’s divinity in Scripture, such as His miracles, but let’s zero in on what Jesus claimed about Himself:
He claimed that He was Lord of the Sabbath with the authority over it (Mark 2:23-28).
He took the divine name “I AM” for Himself (John 8:58, from Exodus 3:14).
He said that the way to the Father is through Him (Matthew 11:27, John 14:1-7).
He made Himself equal with God (John 5:18).
He claimed that whoever saw Him saw the Father (John 14:9).
When He was given the opportunity to correct people treating Him as if He were God, He didn’t (Matthew 26:63-65, John 19:7-10).
He claimed to have descended from heaven (John 3:13).
He claimed to have the power to raise himself from the dead (John 2:19, 10:17-18).
He claimed to be replacing the temple (John 2:19-21), which was the place known to house God’s presence and the forgiveness of sins.
He claimed to share “glory” with God before the world existed (John 17:5).
He claimed to be sent from Heaven (John 6:38, John 4:34, John 3:13).
He claimed He would send His angels (Matthew 13:41, Luke 12:8-9).
He claimed the authority to forgive sins (Mark 2:5).
He assumed the authority to judge the world (Mark 14:62) and that one’s attitude toward Him would impact the end of their life (Matthew 10:32-33).
He claimed to be perfectly sinless (John 8:46).
He claimed that to know Him was to know God (John 8:19), to see Him was to see God (John 12:45), and to receive Him was to receive God (Mark 9:37).
He claimed, “I and the Father are one” (John 10:29-33), which was not lost on Jewish listeners, who responded, “You, a mere man, claim to be God” (verse 33).
In His teachings, He consistently demonstrated authority over the Law, or Torah, most notably in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7).

- I have no idea where is it exactly you are going with this, but the US invaded Afghanistan not because of 9/11. They did that themselves with Israel. They invaded the country to crush potential threats to the empire. The Taliban established a court to judge Ben Laden for the alleged crimes & found him not guilty. They asked the US to provide proof that he was responsible, the US refused to provide any. The Taliban refused to hand over a not guilty man, & for that they had to endure 20 years of US violence & opium trade. They won at the end. The Taliban could've easily handed him over, but they didn't. Ben Laden was a Wahhabi, someone they deemed a misguided Muslim, but a Muslim nonetheless.
