Retired academic, baptist liberal that cares for the rights of those of faith and no faith, believing the separation of state and religion is for enabling the best expressions of both - its absence facilitating injustice and suffering.
How many times does it take in being uniquely positioned to benefit that such is not a chance occurrence?

I'll state again the importance of the separation of church and state. When the two become bedfellows, violence ensues and both church and state are diminished.

Eric, maybe keep a low profile for a while ... after you apologize ... publically to Jack for the line of questioning and name-calling. It's the only way to regain some of the integrity that was lost today.

Ain't that the truth. Wish mine would stop talkin' as much.

Someone please gently nudge her a bit. I think she is stuck.

I hope so. I get tired of driving them to this and that and that, too. I need a better car, one much more comfortable.

How much time do you need?

Through 2028, actually at least four years after that.

Will Biden be responsible at that point if prices remain high?

Of course.

What if prices go down.

Then we did it.

What if they go down and then up again.

Biden.

When will "it" not be his fault?

Never.

Is it any wonder women are attending conservative churches less and less? These men preach sad news not good news.

A senator from a party that refuses its duty to the American people and a president of that same party that repeatedly ignores the Constitution. We can safely say that if his words are true they include his party, too.

Russian soldier dishonors himself and his country. He has marked himself in such a way that his comrades likely will have pause about being around him. Hopefully they will begin realizing the evil they are inflicting upon women and girls. Currently they are not soldiers; they are thugs in uniform.

The gini coefficient is getting larger and the people are becoming more restless.

It's Christian nationalism (CN), of course, and it is counter to Christian faith and responsible citizenship. In short, CN betrays both.

CBS paid millions for her business and with these ratings will lose money due to her decisions. The executives played with trust accrued over decades and are now learning it takes time to earn but a moment to lose. As said in an old movie and can be by many to this situation, "... saw it right off."

And who exactly is creating chaos, Mr Secretary? Is communism, then, your goal? Geez, guys, do you write this or just blindly accept whatever is put in your hand?

The world has serious problems and the president is playing comic book hero.

If we bring about end times as is conceptualized by end-time conservative theology, it will be because we failed to be kind, ensure justice, behave ethically and allow creativity to move unhindered among us.

Mr. Trump, when world-wide degrees of freedom were much higher you decided to make them much lower in order to demonstrate your insecurity. Mr. Vance, please wipe your ears.

Do concepts of a plan count as complete?
