  Separating children at the border....

  by mikeflood in

  i mean, the law about separating children from their fathers crossing southern us border have been in the books since before obama's era.

  the thing is that enforcing that law it has become a public relations disaster for the trump administration.

  there's also to much animosity in latin america too, remember the classic agitator "u.s. is the evil empire that treat us badly just to see always their own interests".

  The left:

  "Latin America isn't a sh!t hole!"

  "Make America Mexico Again!"

  "Viva Mexico!"

  Also the left:

  "OMG, don't send them back!"

  "They're asylum seekers! Don't you know what's going on in their country?"

  I was just about to post this.

  This article is damning. Maybe even more of a "red pill" than the Candace Conti story.

  Unfortunately, if a Witness isn't mentally ready to wake up, this won't even phase them...they'll probably see the tattoo this brave young lady has and then not even read the article because "Tattoo=Satan."

  Why Do People Oppose Jehovah's Witnesses?

  by BlackSpirit in

  jesus christ, the son of the most high god, jehovah has this to say: "if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.

  if you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own.

  now because you are no part of the world, but i have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.

  I don't think BlackSprit knows what solid, concrete, unassailable, objective evidence is.

  You can't cite scripture to prove that God exists. That's like citing JRR Tolkein to prove that literal Dragons exist.

  First: I need solid, concrete, unassailable, objective evidence that a God exists.

  Second: I need solid, concrete, unassailble, objective evidence that the Bible is the infallible divine word of that God.

  When you come back to me with the above, I'll tell you what my third requirement is.

  What is it -- right now (or 2016,if you prefer) -- about America that isn't great?

  I'm just going to give one thing that I think is probably the root of all the other issues: people are increasingly no longer able to have rational political discussions without one side or the other resorting to ad hominem attacks and then retreating to their information silos/echo chambers thereby further exacerbating the polarization of the public. People are often shunned just because they support a conservative idea or a marxist idea.

  When was this time that the word 'again' implies? When was it exactly that those who endorse this slogan believe that America "was great"?

  I think this question varies depending on who you're talking to, but for me, it's a combination of periods of time...I like the optimism of the Kennedy era, the economy of the Eisenhower or Clinton era, the strength of the Reagan era and the governmental libertarianism of the Washington era (without all the slavery).

  What does a "great" America look like? Is it a reference to the fifties? Eighties? Pre 911? Pre political correctness?

  This question is basically the same as the above. But yes, pre-political correctness is a good start. You can't have a frank and rational discussion about complex ideas without the possibility that someone will have their sensibilities offended.
  

  Why exactly do they think that America "was great" then, but not now?

  I think this question is answered above.

  What values and beliefs are implicit in accepting this slogan and everything that goes with it?

  The free exchange of ideas, judging people on the content of their character (meritocracy/MLK view) rather than their group identity.

  Correspondingly, what values and beliefs does accepting this slogan require a person to thereby reject?

  I feel it can best be summed up as a governmental policy of, "Clean your room before you try to fix the world." America first doesn't mean we don't help others, but if helping others comes at the cost of American citizens, then you should still default to America first.

  Basically, any time before Social Media was invented is when America was Greater than it is now.
