Christ Follower - Seeking his kingdom through love - Rejecting earthly kingdoms of hate
This misinformation about the USCG hate symbol policy is driving me nuts. Did no one do research? The policy is clear:

2. Prohibition.
a. Divisive or hate symbols and flags are prohibited. These symbols and flags include, but
are not limited to, the following: a noose, a swastika, (etc.)

Finished my graduate certificate up and admittedly took a little bit too much of a reading break.

I've almost finished my graduate certificate. Soon I can set a better reading routine.

But let's be honest. I may just end up playing more video games.

Mike Johnson refuses to open the House. Refuses to do oversight. Refuses to defend the Constitutional rights that only protect so long as they are enforced. Refuses to stand up to child predators. So we organized our own hearing in Chicago yesterday. youtu.be/2ihL3DpXj2A

And there it is....
That "peace" didn't last long.
NEWS: Israel has launched new strikes in Gaza after accusing Hamas of violating the ceasefire. The IDF says Hamas fighters fired on troops in Rafah, prompting retaliation. Netanyahu ordered forces to “act forcefully.” Hamas denies the charge, claiming it’s honoring the truce.

This irks me so much, from a scholarly and Christian standpoint.

These lies from the media are what create the divisiveness in our country and they are doing it to make a buck.

What is wrong with these people? The same people who feel like Christianity is under persecution.

Maybe it's because you're doing it wrong. Please, show me the verse where Jesus says, "kill the hungry, the poor, the foreigner, and the addicted. Kill all the sinners."

Oh, it's in Two Trump 3:16.
Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

Today’s act of political violence in Utah against Charlie Kirk is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.

We don’t have to agree on everything, but we should all agree on this: political violence is wrong, and has no place in our democracy

So... we're changing to the Department of War while declaring war on Chicago...

So Trump started the second American Civil War....

Now, fighting back is an act of self defense. Right?

This is where some "Christians" have gone astray. They are so worried about punishing the sinner that they spew poison with their words but have completely lost sight of caring for the needy in their actions.
James 1:26-27 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. Religion that God our Father accepts as pur...

[3] But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, [4] so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
