@Dplanet He died because he was white. The UK let in millions of browns and blacks, catered to them, pampered them while demon-izing whites until one of them snapped.

@DA_Stockman Trump is largely controlled by the Israel/Jewish lobby. They control Congress and the State Dept. too. Blame them more than Trump.

And the Arctic has just had its coldest May since records began in 1913.
Climate is very complicated & CO2 is not the control knob. It will probably many years before we fully understand climate & it is unlikely we will successfully predict how the climate will change in coming decades. We must learn to adapt. Fossil fuels have helped us to adapt in the last 150 years!

We built Jikipedia, a new wiki that compiles Jmail data into exhaustive reports on key figures in the Epstein scandal.

It lists all recorded visits to Epstein's estates, each person's possible knowledge of Epstein's crimes and laws that they may have violated.

Here is Epstein's executive assistant, who sent >100k emails to him and was shielded from prison via a 2007 non-prosecution deal.

@WithoutHistory This is typical "Blacks have no autonomy and are helpless victims" reasoning. A bigotry of zero expectations.

@nxt888 Ethiopia had its Haile Seliese for decades and remained poor.

@ImmortanZit Not really. Many black migrants just go on welfare. Besides, robots soon will make blacks obsolete.

@Bellamy_Saluter @Harold__ACP He hated it because he was normal, unlike half of the current US population.

@Harold__ACP This is just dumb crap. The Founders were aware of and knew about communism, Marx did not invent it, and they did not endorse communism despite the twisting of their words.

@d_foubert I use to hear this exact argument from my French friends in the 90's. The dumbness of the argument stems from thinking today's migrants are just as capable of integration as a Roman or Viking was. The problem now is more steep-blacks cannot integrate in France, period.

@VerminusM Where is the quote from ? Dwarves existed in Norse and Pagan Europe before Jews established communities there, and Tolkien drew heavily from these prior legends.

@Old_SchoolEddie Does the writing on the amulet refer to Jesus as God or as son of God, or is the phrasing something else ? I'm asking due to my study on the development of the Trinity concept, thanks.

Christianity has the harshest verdict on human nature of any religion on earth. It also has the most extravagant grace of any religion on earth. That is not coincidental.

Every other religion does one of two things. It sets a bar you can clear; works, rituals, devotion, and moral accumulation, with a path to standing before your god with something to show.

Or it dissolves guilt altogether, telling you the self is an illusion, that sin is merely ignorance, that enlightenment is just a reframe. Human religion, across every culture and every century, moves in one of these two directions. Earn your way in, or talk your way out.

Christianity does neither. It does something no human committee would or could design.

The Sermon on the Mount is not mere moral teaching, it is an intense prosecution. Jesus does not merely raise the behavioral bar, but He relocates it to the interior, where nobody can hide. The Pharisees; the most disciplined religious performers in the ancient world, could clear the behavioral bar. They could not touch the heart bar. Nobody back then could and nobody since has.

Anger is murder, lust is essentially adultery. When Jesus finished speaking in Matthew 5, no one in that crowd was still standing, all their defenses collapsed. That does not look like religion, it resembles a courtroom. And the verdict is an emphatic GUILTY, without exception.

Now watch what happens next.

The same God who delivers that verdict does not simply show mercy. A judge who acquits a criminal is merciful. What Christianity offers is not acquittal. The criminal does not simply walk free. He moves into the judge’s house, he gets the last name and he receives an enormous inheritance. Romans 8:17 says we are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. Not pardoned, or tolerated but adopted and entitled to the full inheritance of the eternal Son.

People underestimate what that inheritance means because they think in earthly categories. The richest human who has ever lived will die, and his estate will eventually dissolve. What Romans 8 describes is something creation itself is groaning in anticipation of; the full revelation of the glory of the sons of God. You are not inheriting assets. You are inheriting glory. The shared, eternal glory of the Son of God.

No human religious imagination arrives here. The gap is too wide. The indictment is too severe and the grace is too extravagant, and they are too precisely proportional to each other to have been invented. The depth of the hole and the height of the rescue match exactly. That kind of architecture does not come from a fleshly committee.

The most devastating indictment in the history of religion. The most generous verdict in the history of religion. Both in the same book, both from the same God. The paradox is not a contradiction. It is in my opinion, comprehensive proof of the substance and the veracity of this beautiful faith.

@ImmortanZit You do know that the book is fiction, don't you? Alex Haley got a lot of crap about that when the truth came out.

[joseph dalton @Mayanrocket]

@MDLatinMass I thought being Christian was suppose to impart a benefit to a person ?
