Allegedly. Neat thing about our constitution is that it doesn't require a lot of confidence in it and it still works! Ouch. Seriously . . . that stings. Plain.

He's a saint. Love him.

They're elected cheerleaders, a thankful rarity. I've said before, when it looks like we're going to become a nation ruled by cheerleaders, then I'll begin to be concerned.

Yawn. Like dichotomously thinking that twice two is four.

And that's part of this issue, is that the Supreme Court justices sit like kings and queens in some ways, they are according to our constitution possessed of great power, they are in many ways our peak legislators, but our Congress has the power to remove corrupt justices and no (serious)...

Democratic 'cheerleaders' have their 'thing' too though. Democrats have corollaries. The parties don't and can't control these 'grass roots' cheerleaders from 'popping up', and both parties are in the business of winning elections, and so the electioneering calculus has to consider the effect...

My model for a new world order would expand the United States Constitution, so it would preserve our Bill of Rights automatically, and not threaten them.

You can't dismiss this so easily, this is a controversy between differing ethical theories and educational philosophies and the complicating factor that schools are publicly funded. It's a right to pursue happiness against a prohibition of establishing religion, which would only be a problem if...

Half the world is still flooded

Thanks for admitting it. dr

Jefferson there's no way the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Associated Press and Reuters are all lying. The conspiracy required to 'pull off' this kind of stunt is not imaginable. It doesn't exist.

[Replying to OP] All of the founders studied history. They were all aware of all the other constitutional experiments undertaken in the West. When they first tried to constitute a regime that embodied the spirit of the Declaration of Independence, they eventually had to 'scrap' it because it...

Agreed. If you look at a globe, directly at, say, the Line Islands, from that vantage point, the world looks like it's still completely flooded. nono. The biggest evidence for hell is the Resurrection of Christ, as it is the biggest evidence for God, and for the Gospel.

What I find remarkable about the controversy with President Biden saying Putin the Moron should be removed from power is that the president weeks ago called the moron a, and I quote, "tyrant". No news. No headlines. No controversy. What's the difference? What "tyrant" shouldn't be removed...

Because whenever there's an 8-to-1 vote, the one must be corrupt? What planet do you live on?

Because you lack grace. Not for yourself of course! No. With you, it's "grace for me but not for thee". You have acknowledged that when you say "commit sin" you mean to not only do something objectively wrong, but to also do it with full knowledge and deliberate consent (informed consent)...

This oldie and goodie by @Clete raises a very important topic: Public Education is a Terrible Idea! It's important because of education's connection with ethics. Classical education or perennialism is the curriculum of antiquity, back when schools were basically natural appendages of what...

That's you. You nailed it.

Don't forget, when you're trapped on all sides and can't run away, that, is when you should run away! If you have faith in God! But yes certainly if you're in your safe space with your loved ones, hoping that no one invades, you should definitely be eating a diet rich in all those foods...
