  i think cops are getting a bum rap.

  are there some cops who shouldn’t be cops?

  are some over eager?

  Cops staying in the force is like JWs that complain about the organization but never leave.

  If cops feel the job is unfair----then quit and choose another career.

  however good certain religious principles may or may not be, there seems to be complete insanity that only religion breeds.. a buddhist monk in thailand has apparently chopped off his own head to give himself 'good luck' in the afterlife.. .

  Your mind is so messed up that your own book (Bible) condemns you.

  
  Isaiah 5:20 How terrible it will be for people who call good things bad
  and bad things good.
  They think darkness is light
  and light is darkness.
  They think sour is sweet
  and sweet is sour.

  Over population

  so i see some very counter intuitive videos on how there is no over population issue.

  that the world will grow to about 11 billion and stop.

  well that would be the first time in human history that population just stopped.

  The UN estimates that around 385,000 babies are born each day around the world (140 million a year).

  That's ONE BILLION about every 7 years.

  Quote;
  

  While it’s good to know that life goes on, it is a fact that we have developed a way of living that has become unsustainable. We are extracting our planet’s resources to the point where it cannot reproduce fast enough to catch up. The demands of our growing population has done much damage to our environment.

  We call it progress, but somehow, our civilization does not have the maturity yet to do what’s right for this planet that we call home.

  something i've noticed is that marriage was the thing for those born before 2010. but today's culture of divorce laws slanted to favor women has forced men to think carefully before signing the marriage certificate.

  most of my friends have no intentions of getting married.

  all of them have gotten vasectomies, so there is no chance of being blamed for a pregnancy.

  There’s just fewer and fewer 10-year-olds getting married these days.

  LOL!!

  God permits evil to exist, but God is not the author of evil.

  The intent of many of those who make claims like yours — that God is “wicked,”

  Man, the least you could do is READ THE BIBLE.

  God Himself tells you, RIGHT THERE IN YOUR OWN BIBLE—

  
  

  THAT HE CREATES EVIL

  BUT YOU DON’T WANT TO SEE IT!

  Isaiah 45:7 In several versions printed by Christians throughout history.
  

  KJ21

  I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I, the Lord, do all these things.

  ASV

  I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things.

  BRG

  I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

  CSB

  I form light and create darkness, I make success and create disaster; I am the Lord, who does all these things.

  DARBY

  forming the light and creating darkness, making peace and creating evil: I, Jehovah, do all these things.

  DRA

  I form the light, and create darkness, I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord that do all these things.

  ERV

  I made the light and the darkness. I bring peace, and I cause trouble. I, the Lord, do all these things.

  GNV

  I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

  JUB

  I form the light and create darkness; I make peace and create evil: I am the LORD that does all this.

  KJV

  I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

  AKJV

  I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

  LEB

  I form light and I create darkness; I make peace and I create evil; I am Yahweh; I do all these things.

  But, as with the account of Job, God chose not to give a reason for His actions.

  Perhaps it was because of Israel’s multiplied sins and rebellion against God throughout the centuries. Perhaps it was a lesson to the people (and to us as well) that the people suffer when their leaders go astray.

  The reality is that God didn’t justify his actions with a reason, nor does he have to.

  PERHAPS, PERHAPS, PERHAPS--------ARE ALL ASSUMPTIONS WITHOUT EVIDENCE.

  You stick up for a MURDERER OF THE INNOCENT---EVEN WITH ALL THE EVIDENCE FOUND IN THE BIBLE.

  Its really insane how close we all are to going to the store and having little on the shelf. Covid should have woken people up but as we see in the monetary policy after the crash nothing was learned and we are now doing the same shit that caused the housing bubble in 08 to pop. My wife works in loan banking and she said she is seeing the same sketchy crap that was going on in the pre crash times. My broker said the traunches and other things that caused the bubble are back. People don't learn.

  I actually think about this a lot. I personally feel shit is going to hit the fan at some point. I remember when Covid first started and I went to the local Sam's 'Club, all the shelves were empty. I drove quickly to Walmart and all the shelves were empty. It took a couple of months before you saw a steak in the meat section and they were limited.

  I try stock up on can food, but even those have limited life. I could stock steaks by the hundreds in several freezers but what happens if electricity is shut down??? All the steaks go bad in a matter of days,

  We are living on a razor's edge, there is no doubt.

  That was a pretty good summary of human history and the relationships between men and women. It kind of saddens me though. We've had to learn through trial and error. And we're still not there.

  Maybe someday we'll figure out how to treat one another.

  For now it seems like a crap-shoot. Some hit the jackpot and find a good marriage mate and others find HELL.

  I don't think the majority of women are like you.

  As the saying goes, you're a Rose among thorns.
