Kountzer Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 3 hours ago, SmashMouth said: Since Catholicism is in decline in the last decade or two, AND since I am not a Catholic, Pope Francis’s directives have little bearing on my viewpoint. I’m not saying I’m anti-Catholic, I’m just saying that article you posted means nothing to more than half the world. The Catholic Church is unique in a lot of ways. One of those ways is the fact that it is both a church and a state or country. If you listen and read what they say and believe they are the mother church. All other churches and religious organizations have to be under their control, or else. Not only do they claim rulership over all churches and religious institutions, they also claim and believe they have ultimate temporal power as well. IOWs all civil power should be in their control. As a state the Vatican has ambassadors in most countries, all the important countries. All the important countries, most countries, have ambassadors at the Vatican. So whether you are catholic or not you are involved. Your civil liberties are at stake. ladybug33 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelosi is catholic. Most of the Supreme Court is catholic. Where you been? You just now seeing this? The leaders who are not directly under their control are almost directly so. There are very few protestants around. The name is seldom used anymore. Some leading leaders say the protest is over. They use the term evangelical now.

stevenash Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 Biden never gone bankrupt because he has spent his entire life on the government payroll. Know absolutely NOTHING about taking risks. Same for Trumps predecessor. I hope the enlightened chosen one/donkey kong is reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Trump is an evil con man who longs to be dictator of this country. He is incapable of any concern for anyone but himself. Given another term, he will move this country closer to an autocracy. He may even push it over the edge. You have to ask yourself whether you really do care about democracy and what the Constitution and Bill of Rights mean. I say many, many of you do not. You care only about an ideology that will eventually shatter your world because this is what the conservatives in power want. Their policies hurt the middle and lower classes, but you turn a blind eye and hope without cause. Many of you actually like Trump’s racist beliefs and overtures. Nothing will change your mind - even the loss of your freedom and liberty. You just cannot see it. You are blinded by confirmation bias. Give me examples of this dictatorship.

LumRaiderFan Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 4 minutes ago, SW1966 said: Trump tax cut was a huge bonus for the top 1 percent and very little for most people. With regard to dictatorship, Trump has done what the emergent Nazi party did when they gained power: call the press fake news and cause public to distrust the news, using words similar to the Nazis use of “vermin” for Jews, criticize judges and eventually got them to rule against the German constitution, persecute the Jews and other groups and talk about false conspiracies to gain more power under the pretext of making it safe for citizens by the illegal and immoral decisions they made. Also, Trump has acted against the interests of democracy and the Constitution by dangling his being president for life, saying only he can solve problems, threatening to move back the election, cozying up to and praising dictators, putting his personal interests before those of the country, inciting racial unrest - where do I stop? lol...not to be taken seriously.
