James Talarico: “The only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they’re on a mission from God. Our faith in Jesus should lead us away from theocracy, tyranny, Christian nationalism and toward a multi-racial, multi-cultural democracy”

Haven Demo, our Haven-1 space station technologies test bed is now on orbit and healthy. Watch footage from our onboard cameras in full duration 4K. More to come.
@DerrickEvans4WV I’d also ask him to clarify again why he is here. And, I imagine he’d say something again about needing to rebuke.
I’d respond:
“But your approach is ineffective. So what is the *real* reason you’re here?”
@DerrickEvans4WV I’d ask him: “Would you like to have a 10 week conversation on interpreting scripture with our church? Because you may not understand what you are saying.”
But I think he wouldn’t answer the question… but rather he’d make a claim, perhaps about how much he understands. 🙄
@AlBuffalo2nite Wow 50 hours. Please help us see the “manufactured lie” by moving from claim to support.
Can you share a couple quotes that have been misinterpreted due to lack of context. And then share the fuller context with links to support a non-racist interpretation?
I really dislike that the automobile industry has many dealerships that play deceptive games with their customers. I speak from experience (and catching a deception too at the last second), and also articles this:

@jaySics@ZachWLambert@MikeCosper If you want to talk about “creational order and design”, you'd have to explain what that means fully, and support that idea first.
You'd need to support that in light of the greatest commandment and stories of inclusion of eunuchs, Gentiles, samaritans, etc.
@jaySics@ZachWLambert@MikeCosper Jay, the difficulty with referencing Matt 19.4 in reference to trans people is missing the context of the passage. And you don’t explain how you got to “creational order and design”.
@TaylorSimonMax Feeling lost without community is an awful feeling—a deep loneliness. Glad you’re feeling more connection.
Do you find yourself attracted to women now?
@elonmusk I think a problem with this viewpoint is that it leans into strength in a manner that so easily moves to domination, bullying & colonization under the banner of peace and protection.
While there’s nothing wrong with physical strength, contrasts like these can be abused to harm.
@LeonardG56161@megbasham The enneagram can influence you through improved self-reflection, especially understanding your deep motivations, hope and fears and how they are expressed. When you understand yourself, you can love people better.
Also it can also help with empathy for other people.
@1DollarDividend Generally yes it’s a big deal, because 82% of White evangelical Protestants voted for Trump. And it reveals he doesn’t value the Bible himself, while last year he sold "God Bless The USA" Bibles.
I see it as more hypocrisy by Trump, as well as his supporters.
