It's a goal. There's nothing wrong with a goal requiring volunteerism to achieve it. It depends on the pope. Right now the popes deal with other nations like how all the other nations deal with each other, as sovereign states with official heads of state. The pope is the head of state of the...

Yes. Except I'm not agreeing with your hypothetical, I'm talking specifically about the United States Constitution and you can describe that constitution however it makes you feel safe to describe it.

Didn't I say "those who want to join the Union?" What part of that sounds like "foist" to you?

No. Preferably annex those who want to join the Union. One step at a time, one nation at a time. There's 50 states and there's no limit to how many states can constitute our republic. The whole world could be America. I support that, on the grounds of justice.

I'm only saying that your writing makes me wonder if you're drunk or on drugs or concussed. I'll bear with you though.

We plead to the Lord, "Look not on our sin, but on the faith of Your Church." It's ongoing, not a wooden, literal once-for-all-time, even though it of course was Once, the One cross of Christ. He says, "Do this in memory of Me," and what does he mean? but to break bread (cf. Acts 2:42). In...

You mean "kobans"? I love kobans too.

If you mean slaves, well you're right about that. In such case universal male suffrage wouldn't happen until the 1860's, still like 60 years before all the men in England got the vote, which was my point . . . to the Brit.

Nope. Category error. False analogy.

I did. That's where I got the 0.001% figure. Didn't you notice that? I'm not doing that. I'm only glad so far that the regime isn't also suicidal on top. Suicidal regimes like Nazi Germany (territorially not far away from Ukraine and Russia!) and Imperial Japan, in the age of H-bomb nuke...

I do not understand that one either, don't feel bad.

It's more damning evidence against them. It makes their story seem even less possible. When you're a first degree human rights violator, it's difficult to give them the benefit of the doubt. Especially when it's not reasonable doubt, but merely the benefit of possible doubt. It's only...

There were lots of "isolationists" back then Jefferson, you would have been in good company. I'm basically isolationist too, so long as we're not missing an opportunity, for expansion of our country and Constitution. I'm a big expansionist. We need to envelop the whole Earth in America. For...

No I haven't. I don't care and I'm ignoring whatever you want to label all the office holders together as a group. Catholic, Orthodox, Ethiopian Orthodox, whatever, I don't care. The name doesn't matter. It's the category, which exists in reality, which the Apostles invented, and which can...

They sure do! :D

Neither you nor I know every last fact about what was or wasn't going on within Ukraine leading up to Russia's invasion. All I'm saying is that it's possible they are in their own way acting in good faith. I just really don't think they are, it might be beyond a reasonable doubt that they're...

That's what they do in China. Regimes which don't respect first degree human rights like the freedom of the press are bone-chilling.

Me saying that the office of the presidency of the United States existed in times past is not splitting hairs. If ever someone were to come along and say, "I hold the office of the president of the United States," we can quickly tell whether he did or didn't. When someone says they hold an...

Hmm. Another source said it was an AR pattern. Maybe they don't want to use bogeyman terms with the upcoming mid-terms so close, and with Dems looking like they're going to take it in the shorts.

Seems a little unlikely to be a coincidence: https://us.cnn.com/2022/10/25/us/st-louis-school-shooting-tuesday/index.html "The gunman died at a hospital after a gun battle with officers ... He was identified as Orlando Harris, who graduated from the school last year."
