I imagine he 10-99ed this one. Then again, if Trump provided tools, a place to sit, and a certain level of supervising authority...Last edited by originalsocal; 02-14-2018, 09:14 AM. -
And yet evangelicals love the guyOriginally posted by old_gregg View Post
It's like when I would have my 7 year old buy things for me on Sunday. No one is breaking the sabbath since she was accountable and couldn't sin.
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

Worked for my wife's family.

Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Yeah, like the family my wife grew up in. Dad was not a member. Her mom was I guess in most ways a very hard-core member, yet she had no trouble getting her husband to run get things for her from Target on Sunday, and not stuff that was an emergency of any kind. We're definitely active LDS, but rules around the Sabbath is just one of those things that's kind of flexible in our home right now given how she grew up.Originally posted by Northwestcoug View PostComment

Millions of Americans Demand $130,000 For Not Having Sex with Trump.
But, even as millions of Americans clamored to be compensated for abstaining from sex with Cohen’s client, others, like Carol Foyler, of Tallahassee, Florida, took a different view. “Never having sex with Donald Trump should be a reward in itself,” she said.Comment

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I don't think this was posted here earlier, but this video continues to bug the hell out of me. It's a bunch of genuinely stupid evangelical women who speak of their "precious president," and who believe Trump is a changed man from his earlier days of sin, etc. They speak glowingly of the Christians principles of repentance and redemption, while ignoring the point that those things require recognition and remorse by the wrongdoer, which Trump has very clearly repudiated. Trump continues to demonize his female accusers (where were these types of women when good men like Romney, Obama and others were running). Strangely, they appear only with dudes like Clinton, Edwards, and Trump...

I didn't realize that famous people used the press to buy and bury a.k.a catch and kill. And that the press blackmails celebrities with stories they are burying. Kind of scary.

Haha. A group of political science scholars got together and voted on the best and worst presidents in US history. In a result that will shock nobody but Orrin Hatch, Trump came in dead last.

In an important way I think this is essentially the whole point of the Trump presidency. If "establishment" types like scholars, academics, political scientists, economists, etc.,...liberal or conservative think he's a terrible president, then he's exactly what his base thinks he should be. It's like grunge music from the mid 90s: it's just meant to be grating to the ears of most people as a reaction to the normal. Trump was meant to be a crappy president to the type of people who are influential in society. The example from other countries in electing these types of revolutionary type figures tends to universally lead to a really bad thing for a country eventually (like Chavez in Venezuela), but so be it. It won't be like that here. Trump is going to make America great. Or so the thinking goes. And the establishment types in his party who are (irresponsibly in my opinion) quietly going along with the chaos or craziness do so because maybe they can get a tax bill or a few other things passed. Very short sighted, in my view, but that's the unfortunate nature of our current politics.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostLast edited by BlueK; 02-20-2018, 08:59 AM.Comment
