| Nov-13-20 | | thegoodanarchist: One more thing...
Anyone in need of inspiration should look into the story of Aron Ralston: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aron_...
This fellow did something amazing and horrific at the same time. Following a climbing accident, he was trapped and alone, starving to death with little hope of survival. So he amputated his own arm.
[Could it be a metaphor for today's Liberty-Loving Americans? We are trapped under the rock of Liberalism, with little hope of survival unless we amputate the Leftist evil.] |

| Nov-14-20 | | Big Pawn: <thegoodanarchist: Yo, <Big Prawn>! Tell me more about the system of government you'd like to see for America. IIRC, you said Constitutional Monarchy. Is that right?

Yes, a constitutional monarchy, because it has biblical support and because democracy is a bad form of government. How would it work?
I think that's a very long conversation, but it would be a Christian based constitution (not at all a theocracy). |

Give it time.
With "counting" still underway, Jim Crow Joe could have a 57 state landslide, and we could lose the house and Senate. It would all depend if they're using the Klystron 7000 ballot printing presses. |

Yes, a constitutional monarchy, because it has biblical support and because democracy is a bad form of government.> Without checks and balances, what is the point of having a constitution? Hitler considered the Munich Agreement a scrap of paper, while Neville Chamberlain hailed it as "peace in our time". Clearly, Adolf made the more accurate assesment. How would it work?
<I think that's a very long conversation, but it would be a Christian based constitution (not at all a theocracy).> Which would be ignored by the monarch? |

 | | OhioChessFan: <tga: These predictions didn't age well. How can people drink their own Kool Aid? I don't get it.> It's amazing. Without Covid, Trump wins over 40 states. They know it. Yet they claim the Biden win as some sort of validation of their position. They're lying, and they know it. |
|
| Nov-16-20 | | thegoodanarchist: <OCF>
Trump won anyway. The only reason Biden is ahead in MI, PA, WI is due to massive voter fraud on a scale I've never seen before. I think Trump has a decent shot of winning. In fact, my only concern is that the justice system is as corrupt as the deep state bureaucracies. In which case the judges will ignore the evidence and defraud the American people. Then we get even more soft totalitarianism:

It's amazing. Without Covid, Trump wins over 40 states.> As tga said, he won anyway, but it is the reason China released Covid on the world. (Since China/Democrats don't care about life, the world dead were simply the "noise" required to "get" Trump.) Beautiful plan:
1) Get the weak sellouts on China's payroll in to run America. 2) Destroy Trump's economy.
3) Allow incompetent Democrat Governors to slaughter with abandon, then blame Trump. 4) Allow the same incompetent Democrat Governors to drag their feet reopening America. 5) Destroy the debate format.
6) Allow JB to hide in his basement.
7) Destroy many months of Trump rallies.
8) Allow Dems to commit massive mail-in-ballot voter fraud. 9) Allow JB to actually run on something
American. <I could have run Covid better> Always easy to say from the prone position of a lazy-boy recliner. |

I think everyone that passed through its ranks is named, as well as all who were lost. Its in poor condition so I'm taking it to a book binder for repair |

 | | Troller: <Philosophical thought of the week: There are no liberals in Heaven.>
I was thinking about this last week and wondered how the concept of purgatory might be related. Strangely, <tga> had initiated a discussion on exactly purgatory at the same time, maybe also sparked by the above sentence? I am not really qualified to enter a theological discussion on purgatory and I am not sure this was intended at all by <BP> so I will leave this concept out. Secondly, IMO the claim requires a rather strict definition of the term "liberal". The traditional political definition of the segment is the segment wishing for as much freedom for the individual as possible - so advocating a small public body, low taxes and in general attributing responsibility onto the individual rather than government/municipality/church etc - and typically represented by small business-owners, farmers and urban professionals. I believe when you use the term "liberal" you mean mostly the urban part, and particularly the left-leaning "progressive" segment? Finally, I assume that we are in the Christian sphere rather than the Muslim. Assuming that purgatory is out of the question, and the liberals are well-defined, we now arrive at one of the basics: Do we know who goes to heaven and who does not? And is it vanity on our part to pass such judgment? I would think that at least the traditional liberal would be able to consider himself a Christian, and he would argue that the issue of Salvation is an individual issue, not necessarily something that e.g. the local church would have a say in. Kierkegaard comes to mind. But indeed we have Christian guidelines laid down in the Scriptures - does it not matter if they are followed or not? (meaning, it is possible to pass judgment on other people after all) Still, I am sceptical as to the idea that we living people get to decide who goes to heaven. |
