Racists hate adoption because it blows their entire worldview to smithereens.
I know a family who adopted a kid from the Congo. He’s a hillbilly with a southern accent who loves Jesus and loves deer hunting. Aside from his looks, indistinguishable from his family and community. They have a daughter they adopted from Ethiopia. She now teaches at a university.
The “DNA is destiny” crowd has no answer to this except to seethe. Adoption is a beautiful picture of what Christ did for us. That’s why Satan and his minions hate it.
@LEC Don't care. Since LR was eliminated, I now have no need to watch the LEC. I might have kept watching... but not investigating for Win Trading was an awful move, so I expect I won't be watching any more LEC streams.
@ostrachan Maturing is realizing that none of the Star Wars movies are worth watching. The best portions of Star Wars are worse than the worst portions of LOTR.
The Epstein files need to result in ARRESTS. And with how disgusting and depraved the crimes were, I think that capital punishment, visible to the public, is more than fair. What these people did to children was evil.
@CanadianPolling If you really believe that, then why be concerned? Could it be that referendum polling is notoriously more difficult than general election polling, and you know they actually have a real shot of seceeding, even if it is small? If you are so sure it will fail, why are you worried?
An elderly woman in Canada was euthanized only hours after telling doctors she wanted to live and receive hospice care instead.
She had become very ill after heart surgery and was being cared for at home by her elderly husband, who doctors noted was experiencing “caregiver burnout.”
According to an official review, the woman told one assessor she wanted to withdraw her request for assisted death, citing “personal and religious values,” and asked for hospice care instead.
Her hospice placement was quickly denied, and her husband requested an “urgent” reassessment for assisted dying, saying he could no longer cope with caring for her.
She was euthanized that same evening.
Reviewers later said the short timeline failed to properly examine her true wishes, with the case raising serious questions about Canada’s approach to euthanasia.
@HilaireNereus I believe that Webbon is a wolf in sheep's clothing and a clear false teacher. But let's be honest, AI checkers are awful with false positives. I've tested it with my own writing, and it often reads as "likely AI generated" even when I wrote it myself.
If a teacher regularly claims to be misunderstood & is always trying to clarify what he has said when called on to own his words, he is not worth your time or attention.
Joel "but she started it" Webbon.
Even if she was wrong in her treatment of you, and she wasn't, you do not get to call a sister in Christ "retarded." What you perceive as someone's sin against you does not give you the right to sin back.
Step down as a pastor.
Scripture says otherwise.
"but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason the hope that is in you; yet do with with gentleness and respect... so that when you're slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God's will, than for doing evil." 1 Peter 3:15-17
This is an evil statement.
Even if you were correct in your views (you aren't), this language is sinful.
Romans 15:1, Ephesians 4:2, etc, teach that correction should be done in a spirit of gentleness. Calling Christian women "retarded" is vile anti-Christ behavior.
Repent.
The average Christian woman on social media is retarded.
I don’t mean to be rude, but this is a lesson for the general public that is simply too valuable to pass up.
First, I will truthfully and plainly answer the woman’s question, without apology:
I am AGAINST interracial marriage.
That is to say, I believe interracial marriage “generally” goes against God’s normative design for humanity, nations, and cultures.
Now, allow me to demonstrate why the question is so stupid by providing a line of actual good questioning that would have produced far more clarity, beginning with the woman’s vague and ambiguous question:
1) Are you for or against interracial marriage?
2) If against, do you believe interracial marriage is a sin?
3) If a sin, do you believe the act of entering an interracial marriage is a one-time sin, or does it place the individuals in a state of ongoing and continual sin?
4) If a sin, do you believe interracial marriage should be categorized as a crime?
5) If a crime, what penalty do you believe is justified for the civil magistrate to inflict upon the “criminal”?
In other words, there is a million miles of distance between being “against interracial marriage” and “capital punishment being the just penalty for those who enter into an interracial marriage”.
The majority of Christian Nationalists that I have partnered with would answer “yes” to the first question, but “no” to all the following questions (I, personally, fall into this category; believe it or not, @NickJFuentes also falls into this category, and has said so many times publicly).
Some of the Christian Nationalists that I have partnered with would answer “yes” to the first two questions, but “no” to all the following questions.
In regards to answering “yes” to the second question, these individuals would say that the act of entering into an interracial marriage is a one-time sin, but does not place the individuals into a state of ongoing and continual sin (I, personally, disagree with these individuals, but I am not ashamed to call them my brothers; I believe they are wrong in this specific position, but there is no legitimate witness from either Scripture or 2,000 years of church history that would condemn their position as a heresy, and therefore, the individuals who hold such a position should be accepted as brothers in Christ).
Thank you for attending my brief lecture in how to think reasonably as a Christian, and why women (even Christian women) are generally incapable of doing so.
This is why I make no apology in consistently saying that women should log off of social media and devote their attention to baking pies - apple, preferably.
God bless.
@IanCopeland5 No, the post you quoted is correct. You are showing a different graph than he is. Your graph is of CASES. His graph was of DEATHS. It is undisputed that DEATHS dropped 98% prior to the vaccine. Showing us the CASES does not negate that.
@Scott_Wiener Instead of telling young kids that they are a mistake - that they were put in the wrong body - let's start telling them the truth. That they are made in the image of God. That God loves them and did not make a mistake creating them. And that Jesus died to offer them salvation.
