With Trump deporting immigrants and quite a few of the courts have been fighting back against him, with one of the judges being arrested by his administration. Then he’s trying to get another judge dismissed from his duties.How do you feel this power struggle will play out? Should a president have this ability or should he not?
The people elected a criminal Trump found guilty of 34 felony counts. It’s anyone’s guess where Trump the criminal will take the country.

How so?
In 2023, a total of 46,728 people died from gun-related injuries in the US. This includes gun murders and suicides, as well as deaths involving law enforcement, accidental shootings, and those where the circumstances were undetermined. Suicides accounted for 58% of these deaths, while homicides accounted for 38%.

Without God, there is nothing. We are nothing more than animals with phony ideas about the world, an over-evolved species no longer fit for anything.
Then why did God sacrifice Jesus his only begotten son if humans are nothing more than animals with phone ideas about the world?

Could you please tell me the passage where the Bible identifies the serpent in the garden as Satan.
The Bible identifies the serpent in the Garden of Eden as Satan, also known as the Devil, in Revelation 12:9. This verse states, "And the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, who is called the Devil and Satan."

Albert was a bit of a lad then.A bit of a clever lad.
Yes, Albert Einstein was a strong admirer of Buddhism. He famously stated, "If there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism," and he believed that the religion of the future should be a "cosmic religion" that transcended personal God and avoided dogma. He also admired the Buddha and other spiritual figures, according to Tricycle: The Buddhist Review.

The Bible does not provide specific scriptures which dive into details about Jehovah’s Witnesses and Catholics. However, notable differences in factors like baptism exist since Catholics conduct baptism at infantry while Jehovah witnesses conduct it on adults with full knowledge of the doctrine.
Jehovah’s Witnesses believe Jesus was a god. That alone separates them from the Catholics who believe Jesus was God.

It happened almost 2000 years after the Jews rejected Jesus and the gospels. The crusades also happened, a lot earlier.
So you accept the Holocaust happened 2000 years after the Jews rejected Jesus and the Gospels.

Russia and Ukraine traded insults today as negotiators were due, tentatively, to meet in Turkey for the first direct peace talks in more than three years. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy slammed Russia for sending a "decorative" delegation as he touched down in Ankara for a meeting with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

I just did a quick search and found that there were approximately 280 Elephants in Germany.
Botsawana is threatening to send 20,000 elephants to GermanyNo, wild elephants are not native to Germany. They are found in Africa and Asia. While there have been historical instances of elephants in Europe, they were primarily kept as gifts or exotic pets by rulers. There have been recent threats from Botswana to send elephants to Germany, but no formal request has been made, and there are significant logistical challenges to housing such a large number of animals in Germany.

For sure, in culturally repressive systems the subjugation of females is still prevalent. Which is why I was questioning your origins and cultural habits.The reality is, that if men and women are treated equally with the same access to education and opportunity, females prove to be just as clever, if not cleverer than their male counterparts.In most "Western" societies where there is a well developed sense of equality, the old style concept of a career as "wife and mother" is now largely obsolete.
In the US, women are outpacing men in several areas, including college completion, employment growth, and even in some sectors like small business ownership. While women are achieving more in some areas, significant gender pay gaps persist, and women are still underrepresented in top leadership positions.

Catholics are not evangelical.
Yes, Catholics are typically considered to be Christian, but not necessarily evangelical. Evangelicalism is a specific branch of Protestant Christianity with distinct characteristics like a focus on conversion, personal experience, and sharing the gospel. Catholicism, while also Christian, is a distinct branch with its own traditions, beliefs, and structures.

So you can be Christian and then also study other religions and change religion if other is better. Kinda like how I was Christian until Satan took me.

I think Jehovah's witnesses are obviously more peaceful than Catholics. Catholics do participate in wars a lot. Jehovah's witnesses dont participate in wars. Their teachings forbid it.As described in their book, the goal of religion is to bring peace. Their religion brings peace by banning war for their members. This is much better for achieving peace now.
They were themselves banned from many countries.
The denomination was banned in Canada in World War I, and in Germany, the Soviet Union, Canada, and Australia during World War II. Members suffered widespread persecution and mob violence in some of those countries and in the United States. The group initiated dozens of high-profile legal actions in the United States and Canada between 1938 and 1955 to establish the right of members to sell literature from door to door, abstain from flag salute ceremonies, and gain legal recognition as wartime conscientious objectors. Members of the denomination suffered persecution in some African countries in the 1960s and 1970s. Since 2004 the group has suffered a series of official bans in Russia.[8]

Yes, that is what we are doing. We reject Jesus and the gospels. This isn't tough to do considering all the errors in the gospels.
Th3 Holocaust happened after the Jews rejected Jesus and the Gospels. The world did not sympathize with the Jews. The Jews rejected the part of the Bible that could have saved them.

What indeed.
Climate change primarily affects the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and land, leading to rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and changes in precipitation patterns.
These changes have cascading effects on ecosystems, human societies, and even, to a small extent, the space environment.

I dont know if this is even possible in China. The government can literally force people to work more. In some free nation, sure, you can reduce necessary work by reducing basic needs. One meal per day, for example. Personally, I would never spend my entire life working because I have seen what it does to people. Makes them brain dead. In fact, dictatorships often use overwork so that population "has no time to think".
It’s people like you that can benefit the most from China’s disciplinary system.

Saint Paul would rather us all not have sex at all. Idk why no one talks about that. His sexual ethic is to be celibate. Marriage is only for if you can't hack celibacy.
Paul was not surrounded by men or women that would have got him to change his mind. He hung around with Luke a gospel writer and physician.

If I did become Christian, I believe my first choice would be Eastern Orthodox. There are certainly great arguments against this decision, but I believe it’s easier to defend.The history of it versus catholics is truly very interesting in my opinion.This is a complete bias though, I admit.

so if one believes the gospels, then the Jews, an oppressed group, somehow told their oppressor what to do.
To reject the Gospels is to reject Jesus. That is what the Jews are doing, rejecting the life and work of Jesus in the Gospels.
