  1. And the current President is a proponent of unlimited abortion. The Trump example is about him. The Biden example is about society as a whole. Once again, I’m not the slightest bit interested in what some politician thinks about his/her own need for forgiveness. (I’ll take your word for it on Trumps comment but with a HUGE grain of salt, considering how often he’s been misquoted or misinterpreted.)
  2. When I say 'honestly' it indeed means honestly. But as I said, I don't generally vote on the personal faith stylings of the people running for office. (I rarely know their faith, nor do I think it's anyone's business.) I elect them to represent ME, not THEMSELVES.
  3. I am indeed a man of incredible faith. I honestly don’t recall the Trump comment but in any event I’m not electing a national pastor. If I was, there would be few if any people in Washington DC. 😉
  4. Shaw, the Tube system is so efficient that it makes little difference where you stay around Central London. Trains come every three minutes to each station…guaranteed. My only suggestion would be to pick a hotel somewhat close to a station for ease of ALL your weekend commuting. You can get everywhere in Central London within minutes. As far as leaving the game, the Wembley experience was utterly amazing. They emptied that entire 80,000 seat stadium in a matter of minutes after the game. Incredible!
  5. As many on here know, I try and simplify things. The fact that Mueller testified that he’d never heard of Fusion GPS it said EVERYTHING you needed to know about the entire process. Period! Full stop.
  6. Thanks When you take the time to read it from the beginning (which VERY FEW people ever actually do), you'll see it's actually a really simple narrative, with an extremely consistent theme. All of it is leading up to the New Testament (Covenant). I've personally never been a fan of dissecting each and every verse, nor do I think it was intended to be read that way. You have to remember that the audience it was written to/for was primarily illiterate.
  7. Excellent discussion Frank. It is indeed a complex one. It sounds like you’re saying that the crime’s been committed as soon as the documents are taken out of the building. And therefore what you do with them, or where you store them after that, has no bearing on guilt or innocence. In essence, possession is 10/10ths of the law.
  8. I’m not trying to be disrespectful. I have idea what faith traditions you come from. It’s a bit difficult to give a sound bite synopsis of entire religion on a message board. However, in short, the entire story of the Old Testament is about mankind’s struggles when they veer away from the teachings of God. They keep coming back but then keep veering back away, time after time after time. That’s it in nutshell. I hope that helps.
  9. Not trying to be disrespectful but…Have you ever actually read the Old Testament? The entire document tells the same moral story from beginning to end. It is one overarching theme.
  10. Well it’s interesting for sure. Either the President can declassify documents or he can’t. And since he clearly can, then I guess the allegations are regarding treason? This should be interesting. 😂
  11. Exactly. The fact that both parties had representatives that voted against it is a step in the right direction. Now let’s see if they can keep it up. It’s going to take a lot of baby steps before this totally out of control spending spree federal government will learn to walk on its own.
  12. That’s impossible to say. I wasn’t there and neither were you. But the moral of the story, whether real or a fable, still holds true today….and THAT is the point of it.
  13. It’s just a story about the nature of mankind Tibs. Sheeesh
  14. And the race of Adam and Eve figures into this how exactly?
  15. A very well reasoned explanation Frank…seriously. It was going along quite nice and logically until your antiTrump bias surfaced at the end. To summarize, a President can declassify anything he wants to, but you don’t personally like the particular guy who did it. The End.
  16. What’s up with all of this Tibs? You seem desperate to pick a fight along religious lines. If you don’t believe in any of this….good for you…I guess.
  17. Everyone should remember this negotiated compromise and how the media mob on both sides has tried to stoke more tribal division in the country. Is everyone happy? Nope. Did everyone get exactly what they wanted? Nope. This is what a negotiation looks like.
  18. Millions of people own megaphones? So that’s what all the racket is!
  19. I agree. 👍 I really meant no offense. I just find it comical that people think they’re going to litigate religion on an internet message board. (It’s never stopped some on here from trying though.)
  20. I didn’t say you said it. It’s what we call a question. Thus….the question mark. 😉
  21. And it’s your conclusion then that there is no God?
  22. I’m obviously thrilled that the Bills are at least relevant once again, but I’m beginning to understand how some NBA teams have evolved to just treading water through the regular season in order to be ready come playoff time. I felt that last season the Bills were desperate to win the regular season and then were pretty much spent when the playoffs finally came around (it’s a long season). This year I’m far less concerned about the regular season. The schedule is a challenge for sure but I’ll be perfectly fine with going on the road for the playoffs so long as the Bills still have something left in the tank come January and February.
  23. A full English breakfast or one of those cheap hotel ‘continental’ buffets? 😉
  24. Isn’t it obvious? The painting above the sofa is hideous. 😉
