    Of course, he's a regular saint.

    I was hoping a new user to the forum might bring a fresh perspective, but instead all you have to offer is the same, tired and irrational anti-Trump rhetoric that we've all heard a million times before.
    It's alright - you'll see after you've lived whether your debased beliefs are up to the standard ;) I'm not worried, if I were you - I would be.

      I'm not sure on who's behalf you're making this threat. Do you, who seem to how know so little about God, presume to speak for him? Heed the parable of the talents where the wicked servant was condemned by his own words.

        I am more concerned about people that say they know a about God, but live a life that is empty of its spirit. Then, because they believe, they somehow get a free pass at the end - I don't think so, frankly.

        Exploiting others for your own gain, is the central issue. Treating the world as something to exploit and destroy for your own personal gain, is the issue. These are things Trump and his corporate cronies value - if you support him, you're in the same boat. The same, sinking one.

                  • No, just the greedy, lustful, gluttonous, and lying masses. You know, the lives of a large number of self-confessed 'good Christians' across the globe. They are all pious at church, but live lives that create suffering among animals and other humans, many of whom they will never meet - or think about. Do I need to paint you a picture?

                          How come you harbor such hatred against so many people?

                            Because they cause harm to others, and destroy the garden.

                              So you live in a high level of hate because of some garden and you wish to speak evil of your fellow man?

                              Where did you get such ideas from?

                                I live in a high level of anger, not hatred. The only evil is the effect of the lives of my fellow man. It isn't some garden, it is the garden. My fellow man is blind as well as ignorant.
