#18 If you knew what it meant, you wouldn't have asked, bj boi.

#15 "I might even convince someone here to vote with me, too."

Flag:

It is the ultimate disconnect: someone passionately digging their heels in, entirely convinced they are winning people over, completely oblivious to the fact that they are just the butt of the joke.

#6 So, he meant the best of the best after the worst of the worst on day one ("at the beginning")?

Is that your rationalization today, bj boi?

#11 Mighty white of you, bj boi.

This is confusing ... very, very confusing ...

#12 You refute/self-retort your own words, bell boi.

#5 Are you referencing Left Hind Turds, LYD?

#4 | #15 Exactly why I posted it.

Thank you.

#27 Like a naive little boi, Effeteboi asks, "How did this Happen?"

1. The Powell Memorandum to the US Chamber of Commerce.


2. Democrat's failed idea that good works automatically go rewarded, so no reason to talk about such successes.


3. The purposeful destruction of public US education, pre-natal through graduate school.


4. The purposeful destruction of the free press.


5. The Overton Window.

#26 bj boi asks, "How much can be done while negative human traits are not only tolerated but oftentimes praised and rewarded?"

#2 !00% spot-on target, Coriolanus.

The "next non-Republican POTUS and Congress" would be a Democratic POTUS and a Democratic Congress.

That's my Eye on the Prize I keep repeating.

I am supporting each and every candidate running on the Democratic ticket, from the local mosquito control board to US Congress.

Yeah, VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO, because in 2026, that's the only way to achieve, as YOU put it ...

The next non-Republican POTUS and Congress must dismantle DHS and ICE immediately, starting with Executive Orders on 20 Jan 2029, followed by Congressional legislation.

#2 Good observation, Clown.

Irony is completely missed by the stupid and ignorant.

Several Christian denominations and traditions do not believe in the traditional doctrine of original sin (inherited guilt from Adam), focusing instead on personal accountability, free will, or the concept of "ancestral sin" (inheriting the consequences, like mortality, but not the guilt). Key examples include:The Eastern Orthodox Church: Teaches "Ancestral Sin," arguing humans inherit the consequences of Adam's sin (death/mortality) but not the guilt.The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons): Rejects original sin entirely, believing individuals are punished only for their own sins, not Adam's.The Salvation Army: Focuses on personal responsibility and innate human potential rather than inherited fallen nature.Society of Friends (Quakers): Generally emphasizes the "inner light" in every person rather than an inherently corrupt nature.Unitarian Universalist Association: Views humanity as inherently good and rejects the idea of depravity, focusing on ethical living.Many Baptist and Evangelical Churches: Some groups believe humans are born in a state of innocence and possess free will, rather than being born with inherited sin or guilt.

#112 "But Christians have this idea of "original sin"..."

Not all Christians, only some Christians.

I understand you might not have an understanding of religion and Christians in particular, or you're just being typically ignorant, which by all indications is your calling in life.

#10 Coriolanus says, "And FDR, a Democrat, helped the poor----------- of this state by building the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) during the Great Deal."

At the heart of what I mean when I say that Ingratitude is a Cardinal Sin.

#104 bj boi says, "...you could be asking why I even believe I need forgiven."

If you believe you've been "forgiven," then the logical conclusion is that you believe you needed it.

There is not a human being - dead or alive - who has, at one time or another, either intentionally or unintentionally, hurt another fellow human being. In this case, I can easily see where forgiveness might be sought from the person hurt. And the person hurt has the free will to accept said apology and verbally offer forgiveness ... or not.

So just exactly how is a single human being supposed to know they've been "forgiven" for whatever it is they believed they needed forgiveness for?

And just where is this plea for forgiveness supposed to be directed?

#10 Friendly suggestion, bj boi:

When you say "...before I decide whether I want to share something that personal with you" there should be 1,000 alarm bells and 1,000 red flags going off in your head, telling you to STOP ! ! ! !.

NEVER SHARE "something that personal" WITH COMPLETE STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET. ... NEVER

#101 You've convinced yourself that you're "forgiven."

Since it appears no one has actually told you that you're forgiven.

You've convinced yourself.

Is that about it?

#2 Coriolanus says, "But the problems he's created are permanent and so is our corrupt system that allowed him to succeed."

Translation:

Never changing.

Nothing can be done about it.

So, why do you care, Coriolanus ? ? ? ?

#98 bj boi says that he's "forgiven."

Who told you you're forgiven?
