One step closer to using nukes.

This is completely normal.

Once you accept the idea that we have to give unconstitutional powers to ICE to stop Hannibal Lecter, it's not a big step to orient national policy around countering any number of terrible threats posed by fictional characters.
We have, accordingly, always had plenty of excellent lawyers, though we often had to do without even tolerable administrators, and seen destined to endure the inconvenience of hereafter doing without any constructive statesmen at all.

Wasn't it the Persians who saved the Jews? I guess American evangelical Bibles have a different translation.

Could've sworn that just a few months ago US evangelicals were saying that Trump was the new Cyrus.

Maybe the new translation just arrived?

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Sola Scriptura + Functional illiteracy makes a dangerous combination.

Most American Christians frankly have no business being anything other than Methodists. Spread the rest among the mainlines and Catholics. :hmm:

He's talking about the Iranians.  Totally different people. :rolleyes:

Catholics were excluded from the Pentagon's religious service on Friday. Most are concerned about the exclusion.  My question is has the Pentagon always conducted Christian religious services?

All/most bases have a chapel and conduct religious services.  Usually those that don't have a chaplain to conduct services for a specific religion/denomination would be able to direct to local representatives in the community.

Edit: finding an article on this incident, the Pentagon's position is actually plausible...if the Catholic chaplain is away, they may not hold a mass.  This happens at other bases all of the time...I don't think there is a real fire here.

Though I should qualify...Hegseth's Pentagon probably is undoubtedly a blazing inferno, but this looks to me like much ado about nothing, Huffpost rage bait.

QuoteVice President JD Vance is now in charge of "FRAUD" in the United States. It is massive and pervasive, and the job he will be doing, in conjunction with many great people within the Trump Administration, will be a major factor in how great the future of our Country will be. We will call him the "FRAUD CZAR," and his focus will be "EVERYWHERE," but primarily in those Blue States where CROOKED DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS, like those in California, Illinois, Minnesota (Somalia beware!), Maine, New York, and many others, have had a "free for all" in the unprecedented theft of Taxpayer Money. The numbers are so large that, if successful, we would literally be able to balance our American Budget. Raids have already started in L.A. Good Luck JD!

Oh, Vance is now doing the fraud? :D
