@_brinxinx Only difference is she told you upfront, you waited to drop that on her when the bill came. If things were the same, you would have told her before.
@YoungRightUS@paramounttactcl Only thing I’d point out is that she doesn’t directly say it. It’s insinuated and her followers inferred it. That’s harder to prove when she didn’t literally say some of these things
@Protestia Make a biblical case. It’s easier. It sounds silly to act like there is something about a cigar that makes people open up. It’s one of many many tools that bring people together (like any hobby or enjoyable thing). There isn’t something special about cigars and alcohol.
Imagine if professing Christians really did this on social media and elsewhere, from I Corinthians:
“When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; when we are slandered, we answer kindly.”
I'm sure it would be seen as weakness, or not really understanding the stakes, etc--even by Christian leaders and influencers. (As if people in first century Corinth had no real problems.)
But there it is. This is how we are supposed to act and respond. For real.
It's the opposite of weakness, of course. Weakness is allowing others to dictate your next move. Acting out of anger is the natural thing. Everybody does it. Toddlers do it. Congrats.
When you respond with blessing, you are free. When you turn the other cheek, you are saying, "You do not control me." It's strength, period.
What's more, when you respond to curses with blessing, you will grow up in real-time. Your heart will change. You'll experience freedom.
"The truth will set you free" isn't a free-standing phrase. Jesus says people who obey him will be able to know the truth, and then the truth wil set them free.
You CAN actually live this way. This way of life is an option. It's a path not often taken, but it leads to life.
@RealCandaceO The blue tape is misleading because the camera is at an angle. There is a straight line through the concrete. Their faces line up with that in a similar position. This isn’t damning at all
@CarriePrejean1@AndrewKolvet@RealCandaceO How was it a mistake? Different states… if it really was a master plan, a lot of planning went into it. Some kind of confusion and thought Candace was supposed to be at UVU speaking and the sniper accidentally hit a white man instead of a black woman in a different state?
@LibertyLockPod How many of the men on security (plus others around him) could be working on him at once to save his life? Genuine question. How many people were in the vehicle?
@benshapiro I think Candace is way off. My wife aligns highly with her. My wife is absolutely bot retarded. It doesn’t help to label followers with a harsh name. It literally accomplishes nothing other than to blow off some steam. It is a fact that all of her followers are not retarded.
@kowshiksan@B_DiNucci6@Sholynationsp 32 tds every season is far easier than 38 points for 3 straight seasons. How many players have done 3 straight seasons of 38 points?
@MikeWingerii I’m not sure why, but the older I get the much less patriotic I become. I’m not a hater of America, I just feel like I’ve seen so much idolatry towards America that I’ve lost the patriotic spirit.
@FreddyLA7 National Parks on the north/western USA. Yosemite and Yellow Stone are absolute must. Go to Big Sur in California, check out the redwoods in Northern California. See Lake Tahoe.
