Ringo, Conservatives are the one who fought a war to
free slaves. Conservatives used the Constitution as their guide. They were very much aware that slavery was/is a moral sin. The Constitution clearly states that "All men are created equal." Even most Democrats in the Northern State supportedthe right of Southerners to own slaves. Slavery is a product of the Democratic Party (DP). The DP is also the party that forced Native Americansoff their lands. They are the party that gave Smallpox infected blankets to the Cherokee. Hitler himself borrowed ideas from the JacksonianDemocrats in regards to their taking land from the NA when seeking to expand Germany's territory. The DA is the party of lynchings; KKK; re-emergenceof the KKK; poll tax; and, breakup of the black family unit. President Roosevelt (D) signed executive order thatplaced Japanese Americans in internment camps during WW2. The Republican Party was responsible for the passageof women suffrage. Look it up. In order for women to finally attain the right to vote, theRepublicans had to gain the majority in the Senate. The majority of state legislatures to ratify the 19thAmendment were controlled by Republicans. The Democrats have not apologized for their atrociouspast. They pass it off as being committed by whites and/or Republicans. The DP has spent decades gaining control of the mediaand educational systems. And, they have been very successful at this. Just like Hitler, the DP wants to control the future bycontrolling the minds of our youth.

LBJ and the Democrats are responsible for the breakup
of the black family. Black women could have all the kids they wanted and the government would compensate them. The only requirement was there not be a man (husband, father) living in the home. LBJ said at that time that this action would keep thosenegroes voting Democrat for decades. The number one predictor for poverty in a family is theabsence of the father. Democrats claim to be the party for blacks, but evidencedoesn't bear this out. Look at many of our major Democrat controlled cities.I'm talking about cities that have been controlled by Democrats for decades, without a Republican anywhere in sight. I'm talking about cities like Detroit, Baltimore, Oakland,St. Louis, etc.... They resemble the old slave plantations. What we see is broken families; run-down dilapidatedhousing; and, a great deal of violence. We also see blacks receiving stipends, which keepsthem dependent on the government (Democrats). But they are never allowed to get ahead, which leads to despair. These Democratic leaders made sure that there is an absence of opportunity. Trillions of dollars have allocated to these cities, butthey are worse off now than they were in the 60's. The same thing can be said about Native Americansliving on reservations. Democrat blame everything on racism. It serves theirpurpose. According to Democrats a white person who lives inpoverty is a result of his owns actions, or lack thereof. A black who lives in poverty is always the result ofracism. This craps comes froma political party that is tooignorant to determine their own gender. And, from a political party that fights for a doctor's right to crush a helpless little baby's head as soon as it is born.

Dwise 1, I am not enraged over anything. God commands
His follower to develop patience, self-discipline, and self-control. I have never said anything about Trump and prophecy. I will say that under Trump our borders were much morecontrolled than they are now. Gasoline cost half of what it does now. And, countries that walk all over Biden did not want to risk it with Trump. Where were you when Democratic presidential candidatesTried to outdo each other on who would get rid of fossil fuel the quickest? On the first day of Biden's presidency, he closed thepipeline. It costs two to three times more to ship petroleum by trucks than via the pipeline. Also, he refused to renew oil leases; then he placed severerestriction on those companies that still had leases. It became unprofitable for them to drill. When the price of petroleum began to skyrocket, he beggedSaudi Arabia to sell us more. They laughed at him. Drill your own oil they said; you haveplenty. Democrats say they want to get rid of fossil fuel to protectthe climate. But, get this: large oil tankers use 2000+ gallons of fuel per hour. And, they take days to get here. Biden didn't care. He merely wanted a way to lower pricesbefore the mid-term elections. When the Saudis rejected his pleading, he starting releasingour strategic reserves. This is theonly reason that prices are coming down. He even sold a million barrels of our SR to the Chinese. If America ends up in a war we won't have any fuel to runmilitary weapons. But, what does Biden care about military weapons. Hetucked his tail and ran dfrom Afghanistan, leaving these terrorists with roughly 100 billion dollars of sophisticated military weaponry. God commands His followers to show respect to ourleaders, but sometimes it can be very difficult, especially when they bring great harm to our nation. Let me ask you something: do you think that it is okayto slaughter our innocent little babies, even as they are being born? Do you think it is acceptable for teachers to talk to 4and 5 years olds about gender. Their young minds are very malleable. The DP believes it is acceptable to give these little ones hormone therapy and puberty blocking drugs. But far worse is that doctors are allowed and evenencouraged to mutilate their little bodies. Answer me, if you will. Do you think that this isacceptable? Texas and several border states are overwhelmedby millions of illegal immigrants over the past several years. If they complain they are called racists or bigots. When Democratic controlled cities receive just afew hundreds of them they become furious. Talk about hypocrites. California wants to banish all fossil fueled car.They want everyone to buy electric cars, even though they are now experiencing power outages. The governor wants everyone to set summerthermostats to 78 degrees. Also, he is asking citizens to not use major appliances after four p.m. Many California residents are now using gaspowered generators to charge their car batteries. Because of open border policies much ofCalifornia and several other Democratic controlled states resemble third world countries. These mentally challenged Democrats could notcare less about fentynal and other illegal drugs entering through our porous border. Democrats want to take away our guns, whilesimultaneously getting rid of our police forces. We will be left to the whims of the criminals. Women are the most vulnerable among us. Theywill increasingly become victims. I believe that women should both purchase, practice, and carry firearms. I believe that all Democrats that want to outlawguns should have signs on their homes that states "This is a gun free home." Democrats claim that they want diversity, but notwhen it comes to personal opinions. To them everyone must become puppets and think how Hollywood, the media, educational system, and the Democrats demand we think. It is becoming increasingly worse month aftermonth.

Tanyptery, I am happy to see that you agree there were racist,
Democratic _ _ _ holes. Byrd didn't switch. Thurmond did not switch until the mid sixties. There is much talk about reparations for blacks, regardlessof their ancestry. If this comes to fruition, shouldn't Democrats be burdenedwith an extra tax since they were the party of slavery. If you are a Democrat let's see you apologize for the allhorrors of the Democratic Party. The Democrats (especially the leaders) don't believethat racism exists in modern America. They know it doesn't, except for the media's loathing for white people, especially against white males. If you think that white privileges exists, or that systemicracism exists, show us where. The Democrats tell blacks that Republicans are the reasonthat they lag behind. Without the black vote the DP would cease to be. They would also fall into oblivion if the media was fair and balanced. The Docratic Party has always had victims and scapegoats.That distinction now goes to whites.

Phat, you mention the last days. The Bible teaches that
we are in the last days. And I'm not just talking about prophetic signs. Gen 2:2-3 "And on the seventh day God ended His workwhich He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all the work which He had made. "And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it:because that in it He had rested from all His work..." The Word "sanctified" in this case means that it wassat aside as/with a purpose. The purpose is both for this present age and the age to come. Notice carefully that no work (God allows for certainexceptions, depending on one's motives) was to be done on the seventh day Sabbath. Also notice that all seven days of creation week areexactly the same length of time, down to the last The Apostle Peter makes an important statement in2 Peter 3:8 "But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as on day. Can this verse have several meanings? Absolutely.And, they can be true at the same time. Read also Psalms 90:4. Revelations 20:2 states that at the ti.e God set up HisKingdom that Satan will then be bound for !thousand Years. Revelations 20: 4 says that those whom God called outdown through the ages would then be resurrected as members of the God family. They will rule with Christ in His Kingdom for one thousand years. The rest of the dead (everyone others than those whowere elected to a position in God's Kingdom) remain dead during this 1000 years. Hebrews 4: 9 "There remains therefore a rest to thepeople of God. "Rest" is from 4520 Strong's. The word is Sabbath. A correct wording of Hebrews 4:9 is "There remainstherefore a rest to the people of God. While it is true that we don't know the day nor thehour of Christ's return, we can know when it in nigh. Hebrews 10:25 "Not forsaking thr assembling ofourselves together,...but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." If the seventh day Sabbath is a 1000 years long, thenso are the other six days. It would make absolutely no sense to assume differently. God's allowing humans 6000 years to try every form ofgovernment that we can dream up. At the same time Satan is still the God of this world/age. At the end of these 6000 years God will have to interveneor we will destroy ourselves completely. He will then show us His way in His Kingdom. He gave us a glimpse of what it would be like in HisKingdom when he healed the sick; raised the dead; and fed the hungry. Those humans who are still alive when Christ sets upHis Kingdom will then receive God's Holy Spirit, and be taught God's ways by the elect/firstfruit. At the end of the 1000 years the elect, plus all thosewho became members of the family of God during that time will then teach those in the second resurrection. In the second resurrection the book of life will be openedto them. Remember this is a resurrection to judgement, not aresurrection to sentencing. They will be judged from that point forward. Christ's death for our sins buys them this resurrection. All who has ever lived from day one of creation willthen receive their opportunity to become a member of the family of God. God is no respecter of person. We will all receiveequal opportunity.

Ringo, I never said that the six days of creation were a
period of 1000 years each. The days of creations were each 24 hours in length. And, I have no idea who Bishop Ussher is.

Phat, the earth; sun; moon; and, the entirety of the
universe was already in existence before the creation week in Genesis. Gen 1:2 states that the earth was without form andvoid. Form is from the Hebrew word "tohuw", #8414 inStrong's Concordance. Tohuw means to lie waste. Look up the Word waste inthe dictionary. By no stretch of the imagination can waste/tohuw be indicative of something just created. The same goes for void-bohuw, # 922 Strong's. Bohuwmeans "an undistinguishable ruin." Nothing is created as an undistinguishable ruin. Thisrequires a destructive process, not a creative one. Psalms 104:30 "Thou sendest forth thy Spirit,... andthou renewest the face of the earth. Just as in Gen 1:2, here the Spirit of God is renewingthe earth, which had become tohuw and bohuw. Isaiah 45:18 "...God Himself that formed the earth andmade it; He created it not in vain (tohuw # 8414). Job 38:4-7 states that the angels of God shouted forjoy when the earth was originally created. There is more to support that Genesis is describing arenewal and not an original creation, but no more should be needed. Even though this was a renewal, it in no way can beused to support that any kind of physical life existed before before Genesis 1:2. Romans 5:12 states that death exists only because ofthe sins of Adam. Animals cannot sin. I want to finish replying to your question concerningthe sun, but I will have to post this in a short while. I Need to look away from the screen for a short spell.

The reason that Satan is the present God of this world
is because God had appointed him this position before humans were ever created. God is a Creator. And, Lucifer and perhaps a third of God'sangels were placed on earth to put the finishing touches to it. After being placed on earth Lucifer/Satan, because of hispride and great beauty, rebelled. Isaiah 14:14 "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;I will be like the most High." Satan was on the earth. He wanted to ascend above theclouds, and be like God. Jesus says in Luke 10:18 "I beheld Satan as lightning fallfrom heaven." He was threw back down to earth, where God had placedhim. Adam could have replaced Satan, but he too disobeyedGod. God knew that Adam would do what he did, but that's not important here. There is also a reason why humans must experience aworld ruled by Satan. Not important here. In any event, the universal war that was fought betweenSatan and his angels and those under the archangel Michael was highly destructive to the present solar system. God renewed the damage caused to the earth, but lookat the other planets and moons in our solar system. They still bear the scars of the titanic battle. On day 1 of creation God removed the heavy debris fromearth's atmosphere, which permitted light (from the sun, which was already in existence) to reach the surface. However because of heavy cloud cover (much like thaton Venus today) the light would be translucent. On day 4 God cleared up the atmosphere completely,which allowed observance of the sun, stars, and moon to be observable from earth. This made it possible to observe months seasons, years,etc....

Phat, the days of creation could not be periods of
years. It is true that yom can refer to a period of time other thana 24 hour period. However, elsewhere in OT when yom appears with evening or morning it always refers to a 24 hour period. No open minded person is going to believe God createdgrass, herbs, and/or fruit trees on day 3, but didn't make the sun till 1000 years later on day 4. And, who else in their right mind is going to believe thatthe fruit trees would then have to wait another 1000 years utill hummingbirds and insects responsible for pollination were created. Some assert that since the words evening and morningare not mentioned with the seventh day that the seventh day is 1000 years long. However, there was no need to mention evening andmorning since it was not a day of creation, but of rest. The seventh day, like the rest, is numbered. God set up a pattern for us to follow. And, His pattern was not to work six days and restfor a 1000 years.

Ringo, you need to understand the meaning of
switcheroo. Tohuw's primary meaning is "to lie waste."To lie waste does not prevent secondary interpretations; such as, desert, worthless thing, or desolate. Isaiah 45:18 states that the earth was not not createdtohuw. Now you say that the earth was created as a desert,worthless thing or desolate, a vacuity But that directly contradicts Isaiah 45:18 that statesthe earth was not created tohuw, or as you say: desert, worthless thing, or desolate place. So tohuw in Genesis 1:2 cannot mean what you hopeit means If tohuw is not the condition that the earth wascreated in, then it should be obvious to even the dimmest among us that tohuw is the condition earth became. I don't rely on creationists stories, even though someare well researched and thought out. My church has taught me these truths. You mentioned that Adam and Eve, who had neverexperienced death, would not know what death meant. Sure they would. God told them. And, no offense, but Paul, who wrote Romans, hasbeen known by a good many of people down through the centuries. If one of you two is lying, it sure ain't him.

Also Ringo, tell us what you think happened during
creation week. Even if you are an atheist, you must have an opinionof what you think Moses is stating. Without having your own interpretation of whathappened on each particular day, you carry little credibility when debating others.

Tanyptery, my kids were no more well off than many black
kids. But, they had a father at home who loved them dearly, and who taught them the values that would help them succeed in life. Now they are doing well. And, both of them are deeply involvedin their kid's lives. Not all fathers are good though. My father shot my motherto death in front of me before turning the shotgun to his own head. I spent the next nine years of my life in an orphange. At theage of 18 I was told to go, and I had no place to go. When I first went to the orphanage (Paradise Friendly Home,in Graves County, KY.) I was scared to death of the other, larger kids. I would hide in an old 55 gallon barrel for hours at a time. I did this for numerous days. I was booted out of the army I couldn't adjust. I went throughmuch of my life drinking and doing drugs. I was in and out of jail. What I needed more than anything was a loving mother andfather. Especially a father to guide me and teach me how to become a fine young man. People won't believe this but I eventually I found the fatherthat I needed. It was and is the heavenly Father. Those who say one cannot have a relationship with Him areignorant beyond words. And, never assume that just because one is of a certain raceor ethnicity that they are mentally stronger or weaker than the others. The greatest predictor of living in povety is the absent of afather in the home. One other thing, difficult and trying times can lead to emotionalgrowth. It can also lead to a more compassionate individual.

Tanyptery, you made the assertion white privilege and
racism exists. I simply asking you to put your money where your mouth is. Tell us in all your infinite wisdom what privileges I have thata black person doesn't have.

Ringo, many of those who are in prison were raised
without father's. And just saying that I needed a father figure sobadly that I made one up is nothing more than a cheap come-back. Some guy that believes his ancestry consists ofamoeba, hyenas, and chimps has a lot of gall in trying to convince others about life. You brain came about by random chance, nothingbut a mutation. It can't be trusted. Mine was created by God.
