@alexjmingolla I think at the core of the issue is not athleticism, but rather culture. As long as it’s not “cool” to be a soccer player in the US, we will never produce transcendent talent. Memetic desire is strongly at play here. Everyone wants to be Jordan, or Brady, or Jeter.
I voted for Trump.
I thought he was tolerable enough to survive for four more years to avoid dealing with the consequences of having someone in office who closely aligned with Democratic Socialist policies.
I can’t defend this type of speech and behavior from someone who uses Christianity as a platform to gain sympathetic votes, rather than a true saving faith that guides their decisions.
I believe men are justified not by works, but by faith alone in Christ’s finished work on the cross so that no man can boast (Eph. 2:8-9). But I also believe as James 2 says that faith without works is dead, and that the fruit of a truly changed life are works (John 15:5).
Trump doesn’t speak like a man changed. He doesn’t speak with any love, compassion, or calculated and controlled strength. He only acts out of his own interests. The leader of the free world should never push for GENOCIDE as a solution for resolution of war, let alone anything else.
This isn’t to say that there wasn’t some type of intervention needed in Iran.
But I don’t see how anyone with a brain or a heart can support the way he speaks and acts in office.
This is not a “Christian, conservative president”. This is a dictator in disguise.
