Phat, this isn't a game. This is serious.
Yes, there are smart and dumb people in both partied. But, the Democrats are pushing all the wokeness. Theyare the ones telling pushing this sick transgender ideology. They are the ones pushing every anti-God policy thatis making Americans look like ignorant little kids. I used to think that you were a rather intelligentindividual, but was I wrong. You, Phat, are a hypocrite. You pretend to love God, butThe truth is that you do not even know who or what God is. From your own words, you have admitted that you do notknow whether God is one, two, or some sort of trinity. How can you claim to love God when you have no ideawhat God is? You claim that women can be pastors, but the Bible saysotherwise. Talk about being arrogant. I do not hate Democrats. I have kin and friends who areDemocrats. I hate what Democrats are doing to America. They, like you, will defend their party to the death. If I were talking this way about Conservatives, you becheering me on. I realize that I might be booted off this forum, but itdoesn't matter. It will only go to show that Democrats don't want honest debates. Another short video on YouTube: 5 "facts" About January 6th we now know are Lies. When you talk about social justice, you also meanconcepts such as white privilege and CRT. My advise for anyone who think they are privilegedbecause of their whiteness is to do the right thing and give your house and all your assets to blacks. And then shut up about it. CRT in schools are teaching black kids to hate whitekids. It teaches white kids that they should be ashamed to be white. God tells me that I am responsible for my sins, and noone else's. I am responsible for my own actions and no one else. I refuse to listen to those who don't believe this.

Phat, many assume that the "comforter" in John 14 is a
personage before the pronoun for comforter is rendered "he." This same Spirit in Romans 8:26 is rendered "it." Each pronoun is either masculine, feminine, or neuter. The pronoun for spirit (pneuma) is neuter; therefore, it isgrammatical correct in Romans 8:26 to use it. The Word comforter (parakletos) is masculine. It is whythe pronoun "he" is grammatically correct. The pronoun has nothing to do with whether comforteris an actual person or not. The pronoun for bicycle (bicicleta) is feminine. It wouldbe correct to say "I rode my bicicleta; I rode her for hours. John 14:18 Jesus said "I will not leave you comfortless:I will come to you." Jesus is our Comforter. He comes to us through the HolySpirit. The Holy Spirit is the invisible power of the Highest. Both the Father and the Son control it. It contains the veryminds of Jesus and the Father. In that sense, it is not impersonal. In 1 John 2:1 Jesus is called our Advocate (parakletos). John 14:20 "At that day ye shall know that I am in theFather, and ye in me, and I in you." There is no mention of a third member of the God familyhere. There is just the Father, the Son, and those humans that love the Father and Jesus. John 14:21 "He that hath my Commandments, and keepsthem, he it is that loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." Notice that it is Jesus who manifests Himself to us. Hedoes this through the invisible power of God, the Holy Spirit. John 14:23 "...If a man love me, he will keep my words,and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him." It is the Father and Son who comforts us. They resideinside us via their Holy Spirit.

They are the ones pushing every anti-God policy that is making Americans look like ignorant little kids. Liberals fully support religious rights, and this includes the religious right of not having the government force religion onto you.

CRT in schools are teaching black kids to hate white kids. It teaches white kids that they should be ashamed to be white. CRT isn't being taught in schools.
God tells me that I am responsible for my sins, and no one else's. I am responsible for my own actions and no one else. I refuse to listen to those who don't believe this. All the while youa re telling everyone else how to live their lives. Go figure.

You have confirmed your own ignorance and arrogance.
I was mad at you for daring to tell me what I know about Jesus and Christianity. I know far more than you do. The hubris! Edited by Phat, .

What is "wokeness"?
What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence. -Christopher Hitchens Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness. If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

What is "wokeness"? I keep hearing nutjobs use that term but other than assuming it is some kind of derogatory slur, but I have never seen an explanation or example to know what the fuck they're talking about.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned! What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it. Contrary to your understanding, all available evidence confirms it. --Subbie If evolution is shown to be false, it will be at the hands of things that are true, not made up. --percy The reason that we have the scientific method is because common sense isn't reliable. -- Taq

Taq, you can really be proud to be a Democrat.
27 of top 30 crime - ridden cities run by Democrats. Progressive policies that promote crime: "Ending cash bail, defunding the police, refusing toprosecute entire categories of crime, letting thousands of convicted felons out of prison early, etc..." have led to massive spikes in crime, especially violent crime. The policy of not prosecuting certain areas of crime hasled to the closing of every WalMart store in the city of Portland Oregon. WalMart could not make a profit in Portland because theDemocrat controlled city refused to prosecute shoplifters. People keep electing the same political party expectingdifferent results. Seems they never learn. I stand by my assertion that I am responsible for my ownsins/crimes. If I break the law, I should be held accountable. Thesecriminals should also be held accountable. How can a political party pat itself on the back whiledramatically increasing the rate of violent crime? If you do not believe that CRT is being taught inmany schools, it just goes to show your ignorance of what is going on around you. If you really cared, you would look into this.

That definition above articulates it very well. It is the word of social activism. It resonates more will liberal activism than with conservative activism, however. I doubt that many people would call the hillbillies on January 6th as woke. At best, they would be labeled as agitators.
Granted I read books by Peggy Noonan and others about White Privilege, but my response to it differed from some of my more liberally minded friends from college. If being woke means simply to be aware of the social climate, I might qualify as being woke...but im not gonna lie. the word implies brashness and a desire to overturn the social order and im not that guy.

Phat, I had as rough a childhood as anyone. When I Ieft
the orphanage at the age of 18 I was not prepared for the challenges of life. For years I smoked, drank, and took drugs. I have spenttime in many jails; the longest being 6 months. I barely escaped prison several times. People did not want me in their neighborhood, and lookingback I can't blame them. I blamed everyone for my failures and shortcoming. Thisgave me an excuse for not living up to my potential. It was only after I took personal responsibility for myselfthat I was able to turn things around. My place in life was up to me and nobody else. The banks did not loan me money simply because I waswhite. Nor, did being white land me a good job. I started doing home repair with an old pickup andsecond hand tools. But, I gave my clients an honest days work for an honest dollar. Soon my name spoke For itself. There was an elderly black man and his wife that I didseveral jobs for. He was born not long after the turn of the century. Inhis day blacks were discriminated against. And, we talked about each other's lives often. We had a good deal of mutual respect for each other, and I often went by just to chat with him. He overcame by his determination, and he never allowedhis kids (he and his wife had 9) to sell themselves short, nor did he allow them to blame their failures on others. He was both a strong and good father. His kids haveturned out much like he was. Personal responsibility is what kids need to be taught. It isalmost criminal to teach them otherwise.
