Civics 101 Guidelines

Want to argue about politics? Healthcare reform? Taxes? Governments? You've come to the right place!

Try to keep it civil though. The rules still apply here.

      The bishop of Alexandria decried the murder of Hypatia. It was a crime.

      Seer was making a joke, in very poor taste imho, about Hypatia of Alexandria's murder.

        I would agree some are fixated upon America.

        It is also good to mark the memory of attempted genocides of the past. It was good the world intervened.

        An even better thing to do is to speak out against China, and it's genocidal ways.

        Here we have a Chinese government being the evil regime we thought they were. Everyone should speak about it, China should be confronted, perhaps cancelled.

        The saga of Trump and masks seems to be more riveting.

            Genocides are horrible and evil.
            If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

              People should speak out against any regime or nation that supports [directly or covertly] injustice and brutality.

In response to comments about persecuting the Jews etc. I merely pointed out that the persecution of the Jews goes back to texts found in the NT which contain distinct anti-Judaic/Semitic elements.
                And what was that in response to?

                    It seems most of my humor is in bad taste.

                        Why not let nature take her course? Why do you hate nature so much?

                          To be fair the system in place is from when TWeb had a lot more members.

                            Are any of these questions in good faith seer? It is not a given that we can do anything that God has done. Though even when the war with the Canaanites happened, people were allowed to convert to the Israel tribe.

                            Genocides are evil.

                                God can raise thr dead back to life and has the authority to pass judgment.
