“Then he added, “Every teacher of religious law who becomes a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a homeowner who brings from his storeroom new gems of truth as well as old.””

@cgad@davidswanson You could easily say, I can’t support the BLM crowd because there’s too much I don’t agree with and there are many better options (ways to support black lives). And... I don’t agree with Donald Trump on several things, but he’s the best option of 2. That’s not hypocritical.
@cgad@davidswanson You could easily say it this way, I can’t support The BLM crowd because there’s too much I don’t agree with and there are many better options (ways to support black lives). And... I don’t agree with Donald Trump on several things, but he’s the best option (of only two)
@cgad@davidswanson I guess I should say something more about how the argument’s bad, in case it’s not already clear. The implied accusation is hypocrisy. Yet the two situations are so different I can easily think of why someone having the SAME motivation for both. Namely advancing Christian goals..
@cgad@davidswanson Ahh. Sure nothing wrong with that. But that was a secondary concern when I made that post. My main problem is that it’s a witty but very bad argument. The “bad” of that is then compounded by the fact that it moved so many to think even more poorly of Christians than they do
Six months ago, the #COVID19 pandemic came to the U.S. and changed everything. Convoy of Hope committed to delivering 10 Million Meals across the U.S. to help those with newfound need. Now, you've helped us deliver more than #100MillionMeals globally!
Those seeking to destroy Christian institutions find a home on the Left, and wield influence when the Left has power. I wish it weren’t so, but it is. So I don’t get the line of thinking that says, “Trump’s a bad Christian example, so vote for the Left” https://t.co/GGHrnGTLl1
His opponents said, businesses can’t be open! Then said the economic slowdown was Trump’s fault? They said, looting is a legitimate form of protest! Now they say the violence is Trump’s fault?
As #HurricaneLaura strengthens, experts report that the storm surge will cause catastrophic damage along the coastline if it makes landfall at high tide. That is why a full Convoy of Hope fleet has deployed to the coast. You can support this response at https://t.co/tcPiU3OAXp.
