@LakotaMan1 This refers only to the heavenly version, NOT THE WORLDLY version. I was mainly referring to the verse, which did not reply to the other party.
@LakotaMan1 Actually,if you read the chapter, it is the spiritual version of Jesus, and in that version he is very white, KJV, Rev 1:14 "
ย His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire"
@LakotaMan1 Not gonna. Yossi Nagar, Israeli Anthropologist, who worked on #WhatDidJesusLookLike has proved that the bones of Jews in Judea in Jesus's time most resembled modern day Iraqi Jews: "black hair, honey/olive skin, and brown eyes." In the earliest depictions, black hair and skin. ๐
@SenClaireCelsi Go ahead, ban the books. It will just boost sales on Amazon. Always does, without fail. It would not surprise me if M4L had a publisher or 2 behind them.
@Mcflybud@SenClaireCelsi Maybe we can think for ourselves? Because we have a mind and so do our children and our teachers and our librarians. I trust them a damn sight more than I trust those M4L Koch Bros. financed, out-of-state nobodies in the balconies. I've read most of them. How many have you read?
@outdoors_lb@SenClaireCelsi "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one anotherโ (John 13:34-35).
Sounds like we have another wolf in lamb's clothing here. Fake Christian โ๏ธ
@manu_kirkwood @GuySnarky @SenClaireCelsi Name these books, title and author, that are ... Wait. You can't. Some of these kids are living in conditions far worse than any book. Yes, even the ones at YOUR church. If you REALLY want to help these kids, don't take away their mental health care, food benefits,etc.
@manu_kirkwood @GuySnarky @SenClaireCelsi Lighten up, Francis. Pretty sure Guy was referring to the coming onslaught of supposed CRT complaints librarians are going to get. Shame, too, that our kids won't know that the Louisiana Purchase was financed by the sales of enslaved persons. #1619Project Comprendez-vous?
@TommyDeierling @SenClaireCelsi Not sure if you have been following the bill and politics leading up to this however, if you are a teacher or a librarian and now have to change because anonymous feels a book is wrong, and you are being vilified for "grooming" kids, threatened w/felonies, etc that's hateful.
@PFleeceman Advocating a 10 y/o rape victim is further traumatized by a forced pregnancy and delivery? That is state-sanctioned child abuse prima facie. When was it determined that an embryo's rights superceded a child's rights? That's when we as a society say, "it's not about the kids."
We used to call this a "white whine." You'll not hear it from me tho. My kids, like 66+% of IA kids)
A. Live in a rural district w/o access to private schools
B. On the autism spectrum, so no private school would accept them.
#iapolitics
Iowa GOP lawmakers passed legislation earlier this year to make private schools more affordable.
Now, a handful of those private schools are increasing tuition prices.

@thejackhopkins I really don't care if this young man did touch his door knob, it does not mean he was a threat. We live in a society with other human beings and not everyone is out to kill you. If the shooter is that biased, then he doesn't belong in society.
@thejackhopkins However if you look at these "stand your ground" laws, the defense heavily favors white men. In other words, when white women and POC use it, it is struck down. Statistics in these states will back me. Funny how that works. ๐ค
Even Colbert is laughing at the Iowa GOPโs child labor bill. But Republicans are being quite logical here: If youโre taking away food stamps and health insurance from poor families, it only makes sense to let the kids work 6-hr shifts in the factory to make up the difference.
