The President posted racist idiocy on the same day he made a mockery of the National Prayer Breakfast while also being mentioned 38,000 times (and counting) in the correspondence of a sex trafficking ring. Stop excusing him.
One of the common justifications I hear for the President’s deplorable behavior is that he’s just trolling his opponents. He doesn’t really mean it, and we shouldn’t take him so seriously.
What those who make such claims don’t realize is that they’re essentially describing this guy:
“Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, ‘I am only joking!’” (Proverbs 26:18–19)
Even if it's true about Trump, it doesn’t strike me as much of a consolation.
@EthelflaedAegis@TheMuppetPastor@BethMooreLPM Ok, we’ve clearly had as much fun as we can tonight…to be very clear I believe that Black Lives Matter and I believe in BLM. Not conflating. Just think both are true. Your insults aren’t going to change my mind and I’m clearly not changing yours. Peace ✌🏼
@EthelflaedAegis@TheMuppetPastor@BethMooreLPM Black lives ABSOLUTELY matter. Your condescension is cute. If you disagree with the FACT that God calls us to love Him first and others second, that’s on you. Thats biblical. I’ll task you to look that one up if you need to, but it’s pretty commonly known.
@EthelflaedAegis@TheMuppetPastor@BethMooreLPM Nice try, but I’m just responding to a post attacking Beth in ridiculous ways. But thank God I am a teacher! Here’s hoping you are not, if you think the last thing I said in particular is “dishonest”. Cheers.
@TheMuppetPastor@BethMooreLPM MAGA talking points. There’s no force feeding anything in our schools. If there was my students would bring pencils. Everyone asked questions during Covid. You just don’t like that they weren’t all the same ones. Black Lives absolutely Matter — to Christ, and to His followers.
I know we are all distracted by the fact that we were supposed to be driving flying cars by now, but how is it 2024 and I don’t have a dishwasher that automatically unloads itself?
Me: orders M an ice water at @Starbucks .
She: mommy? You didn’t order my ice water I wanted.
Me: I did, sweetie!
She: but you ordered a TALL cup. I want it in a SHORT cup.
Me: the confusing thing is that the tall cup IS the short cup.
She: …I don’t get it.
Me: exactly.
@MichaelTalJ@mtn_dsrt_pastor@BethMooreLPM@treveccachurch@Trevecca is the first place I was exposed to creeds and gained an appreciation for them. We attend a non-denom charismatic leaning church now…no creeds. But over the last year find ourselves often at Mass where things like this draw us deeper in. Beautiful sacred traditions.
At a stoplight my three year old checked out the vehicles around us and when the light turned green said “let’s have a race!” and I don’t know if I’ve ever related more.
