Some people argue this. How about that now dead evangelist who argued that certain cartoon characters were gay. Maybe Megyn Kelly was following him.

This is very enlightening. One problem with some people is that they claim we did black people a favor because through slavery they learned about "the one true god." That should be enough to make you sick. What it does is set the stage for Christian Nationalism among those who believe in it. Going by what the individual states say the Civil War was all about slavery. Very plain and simple when you read it.

DenoPenno comments on Dec 29, 2023:

Trump himself is an attack on Democracy. His ideas on insurance for all did not happen and it would not happen. He screwed that up, and the GOP is not into insurance for anyone. Trump also said that when re-elected he would tackle Social Security. Since he does not believe in it we should understand that it would disappear. All of this and ideas that elections will sometimes involve violence is much more than enough to eliminate Donald Trump forever.

DenoPenno comments on Dec 27, 2023:

Use different calendars all you want to and you will never find a suitable date for anything involving Jesus. We do not know when he was born or when he died. His birth could have been April or early Spring, and his death is surrounded by an ever changing religious holiday. The dates change one year to the next. December 25th is a pagan holiday and it was set up for Jesus being born at that time so as to draw pagans to Christianity. Image you have a relative who died but you are unable to go to a place that has their records on a stone somewhere. Even worse, you know your relative was real and they lived and died but you have no other info about that person.

Newton is dead a long time and I do not think dead people have any ongoing birthdays. This day became what it is to us today in an attempt to get pagans into Christianity. I celebrate nothing and this year I did not even go to the family dinner my kids had. I told them in advance that I was not going.

So, should presidents have complete legal immunity?

DenoPenno comments on Dec 12, 2023:

The entire immunity thing going on right now involves Trump and should he have immunity as the GOP claimed he had. They claim "a sitting president" is the one with immunity because if he was drawn into constant lawsuits he would not be able to do his job. On January 6th Trump was in office and the ongoing thing with this is that he was president -- but was he really? Biden had won the election. The powers that be are going to hurdle this to get it over as quick as possible by sending it on to the Supreme Court. Trump and his lawyers want to delay this as long as they can. If it goes on long enough and Trump is elected again you have Trump doing a dance and saying " I'm president and you can't get me! Na na nana na na." (Well, something like that.) The problem with this quick trial and getting this over seems in Trump's favor because the Supreme Court is now asking Trump how he wants to do this thing. That's the way I get it but this does not sound like justice to me.

LOL Food I get here helps out and I have leftovers that I share with a neighbor who has a family. I'm not so sure the town likes these people because it is claimed they are inviting the homeless. OK, do homeless people need to eat? Food is coming in from all over with a lot from St. Louis, Mo. and this is a "good work" for these people. Now we get to the bottom line. The idea is to get you into a church attached to the building. Their head man is the preacher and they also want to help you find Jesus. Been there, done that, and I will never do it again.

Americans think this is where their religion came from and the Jews do not give a crap about Christianity. Yes, this is the "holy land" we say and America is along with Israel in them becoming a nation and anything else you can think of. What we forget is that this is all made up crap that pushes our "Christian Nation" crowd right to the limit. If the wrong people get elected in our government we will see this to an extreme. It scares me a lot. It should scare everyone a lot. People need to be looked and and dealt with as human beings.
