Ha, just because you live in the states doesn't mean you know all that is happening, I get the same news as you do, how could you possibly know what is happening everywhere, its a big place in case you didn't know.

All you are doing is proving my point. This is what I am talking about, you don't get it, you think it is as simple as Trump vs. Hillary, but it is much bigger than that, it is Dem vs. Rep and because of polarization each have a widely different view of were to go next. A Democratic president would have been able to preserve and advance certain agendas that the Republicans don't support.

What happens in this administration, because I actually live here, will have a direct impact on my life in a number of various way I doubt you could even guess at, and if you think a Youtube video is going to give you that same type of knowledge then you are just dim.

It is awfully naive to think you can know as country as if you were a native, because you watch the news.

Their conduct is not Christian.

Your constant superior, talk-down-to-everybody reminds me of those vandals quite well.

If expressing my views and rejecting yours is your reason for making such a staatement, then you are also guilty of your own example.

see them and you as two peas in the exact same judgmental pod...

Show me where I have judged anyone. So far you are the only one who has judged anyone.

LOL! So the poor fig, who did not do as it was SUPPOSED TO DO-- grow fruit IN THE FORKING WINTER, had to die to make a point TOO WEAK TO EXPLAIN?

LMAO!

That's rich! And funny as heck!

You need a lesson in fig trees. They bear fruit before they bear leaves. That tree had leaves and should have had figs. It was unproductive and so was Israel.

It teaches today that if we have the outward signs of Christianity, but have no fruit, we are in danger of being spiritually cursed. It is very similar to "faith without words is dead."

LOL! I love it when I can school True Believers™ on their own "holey" book!

(one they obviously never actually read....)

Jesus interacts with Capitalism exactly twice in the bible stories. In one example, he commands is followers to pay their darn taxes-- "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's" on a question should Good Jews pay taxes to the government.

The second time, a good Capitalist Business had been set up as a fine convenience for those wishing to purchase temple accouterments. Naturally, it was a closed-loop business deal: the very BEST of all possible Capitalistic Ventures. The good temple priests had set the prices to purchase ingredients for the Mighty Spell Casting-- erm-- Sacrifices to YWEH. Payable in Hebrew coin only.

Who uses Hebrew coin, apart from the priests? Pretty much nobody.

So some enterprising folk very kindly set up a very convenient bank-- wherein they are happy to change non-Hebrew money for the Right And Proper Hebrew Coin.

VERY CAPITALIST.

And along comes the Hippy Jesus-- he doesn't like Capitalism--- in fact, he hates it-- he takes a whip and ruins their little marketing venture-- without so much of a by-your-leave.

Jesus was a Communist, you see-- he abhorred ownership of anything.

This isn't the most ignorant rant I have heard about Jesus but it is in the top 5. Make that the top 3.

At least now you have seen the error of your hyperbole and admit it was not a bullwhip, , However you continue in error. Jesus did give them a by your leave." He said to them, "It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a robbers den"

They could have set up in the market place and done the very same thing.

Is it not embarrassing to be so wrong twice about the same simple story.

Are you advocating not paying taxes? That is breaking the law, Do you advocate breaking the law.

To say Jesus was a communist should be the top and bottom line on the poster identifying the most stupid comment of the age. To say He abhorred ownership of anything, without some evidence is a close second.

I don't think you have red the account. I bet some 6 year old with a vivid imagination told it to you.

Well at least if she had been elected maybe she would finally quit whining about what a big loser she is--have to give you that.

Why, exactly? Would she have set our nation on such a disastrous path as Trump has? At this point, "thanking heaven" - of all things - that Hiliary didn't win is not enough.

What, in your opinion, is the disastrous path Trump has put us on? (BTW the way, did you notice that just this week the unemployment rate has dropped to the lowest it's been in ten years?)

Even some of his better parables were about OWNERS of land and enterprises that HIRED workers and paid them for their production. I never understood where people considered Jesus a Communist or even communistic.

The big advantage that Hillary's fans enjoy is that in defeat, she can be a perfect alternative.

Thanks for the reminders. I couldn't think of a good example.

People who say Jesus was a communist, and that is the first time I have heard that, are the ones who dislike Christianity and try to make Jesus to be some kind of an immoral person.

I understnd people not accepting Christianity, I just don't understand their hostility towards it.

You are joking, right? If any administration can be credited with this low unemployment rate it would be the Obama administration.

I don't think anyone here claimed she was "perfect", but she would have protected the Democratic agenda, and to many of us that is very appealing. I am not sure why the few of you are having such a hard time wrapping your mind around this simple concept.
