Parky60 Loc: People's Republic of Illinois

I am not voting for a man. I am voting for the principles for which this country has stood since its founding. I am voting for Constitutional government. I am voting for a strong and viable military. I am voting for a vibrant economy. I am voting for the right to keep and bear arms. I am voting for the freedom to worship. I am voting for a national recognition of the founding of our nation on Biblical principles. I am voting for the ability for anyone to rise above their circumstances and become successful. I am voting for my children and grandchildren to be able to choose their own path in life, including how and where their children are educated. I am voting for our borders to be open to everyone who enters under our law and closed to everyone who would circumvent or ignore the law. I am voting for the Electoral College to remain in place, so that a few heavily populated liberal centers do not control the elections. I am voting for a Supreme Court that interprets the Constitution rather than rewrites it. I am voting to teach history, with all its warts, not erase it or revise it. I am voting for the sanctity of life from conception to birth and after. Let us all Make America Great Again.

Parky you speak my mind, thank you.

Great piece! I would add, if I may, prosecution of all traitors and seditionists, and in particular those who are criminals in government!

Give it a brake, Trump's a blowhard & con man.

Tiptop789 Loc: State of Denial

You give it a brake too manny. Trump wouldn't know a traitor unless he looked in the mirror or got grabbed by the short hairs.

When did I mention Trump? He sure is living in your head rent free.

I said that I wasn't voting for a man.

Singularity

But it's Trump's name on the ticket. You are voting for Trump.
You are voting for and endorsing the vileness that is Donald Trump while half assedly apologizing for the character and behavior he has displayed.

I appreciate the apology but it is absurd to apologize beforehand when you could just not do the awful thing in the first place.

Parky60 Loc: People's Republic of Illinois

I am voting for the policies that Trump that eschews, not the man. And using your “logic” I shouldn’t vote for anybody:

None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one. Romans 3:10b-12

You appear to be an intelligent individual but just like all of us all, you sure can say some stupid things sometimes.

Singularity

Half assed = luke warm.

Nauseating. To your Lord. Says It will vomit that crap right out of Its mouth.

You obviously want to, absurdly, somehow distance yourself from the vile personage of Donald Trump while still VOTING FOR HIM endorsing and supporting and furthering his career and actions. Straddling two fences at once is no mean feat. Lie with dogs, rise with fleas.

Your Bible verse highlights the problem. My own quote prescribes the biblical solution at which you yourself have already logically arrived. But which you find yourself resisting.

2 Corinthians 6:17 KJV
"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing "

If you wouldn't have baked that homosexual couple a wedding cake, you shouldn't vote for a sexual pervert such as Trump has proven himself to be.

If you believe killing fetuses is wrong, you won't vote for man who separates children from their parents and puts children in concentration camps. Or uses medicine and vaccines made using aborted fetuses' stem cells like remdesivir and those monoclonal antibodies.

If you believe you have a duty of stewardship and dominion of the planet. . . .

I could go on, but I see that your eyes have already glassed over and there is froth and spittle forming on your lips.

Step either forward or back two feet. The bunker door is closing and if you keep standing on the verge the drawbridge will drop you into the moat while it retracts.

Now you imply it is not possible for me to understand your godly logic!? I'd say you are the one having a comprehension problem .

You are the one resisting the clear logic of your Lord's instruction.
2 Corinthians 6:14
King James Version
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

NEXT VERSE:
2 Corinthians 7:
1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

It sounds like to me you don't have or believe these promises! You dont think your God can handle a problem like Trump. You don't believe your God can protect you and properly care for you without you voting for an evil instrument like Trump? That unless you make a devil's pact with Trump to market your soul to Satan, God cannot or will not bless America.

That isn't just illogical, its a little damning.

James 4:17
King James Version
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

FallenOak Loc: St George Utah

Neither am I. I am voting for Jo Jorgensen. It is time to break the DEM and REP stronghold on the American people. Third Party offers fresh air, Old Parties offer halitosis.

I am not implying it…I’m unequivocally declaring it.


You throw that quote out often and you don’t even know what it means. Read 1 Corinthians 2:14 and
Isaiah 5:21 again. How am I unequally yoked to unbelievers? I live in the world. I am not of the world.

I grew up on a farm.. A team of beasts of burden, most often a duo, must be matched in size, strength and stamina in order to work together without being overly burdened with effort of trying to accommodate to each others differing stride, speed or pace. Its not healthy for either animal long term. And not efficient in working terms. The animals are stressed by it and get grouchy and ornery.


Let's slightly switch metaphors and perhaps I can make the point more clear without contaminating the message too much.

I know you want to and believe you must, but this postings makes it sound as if you don't trust your God to manage all those concerns listed in your opening post without Him or yourself employing unethical or dishonest means. You seem to say God needs Donald Trump or we are all doomed. You suggest you must endorse, support and vote for a leader of (y)our pack who you seem to know to have (trying to strain for polite words here) possibly unsuitable qualities. I infer that from your evident fervent desire to distance the vote from the man.

Here's that metaphor switch... if the team is not a duo, such as a team of oxen, but a pack of three or greater, it will always be enequal to the detriment of the individual. That's why a leader is needed. As the leader is always inherently more equal than any other team player, offering your pull and support to the team and its leader's effort is taking that yoke or harness upon yourself. That is why many oppose supporting the good work Planned Parenthood accomplishes... because of the desire to not support work in any way associated with their associated abortion services. There are plenty other threads discussing the abortion issue latrly and we don't, please, need to go down that particular rabbithole here. I am offering it and the homosexual wedding cake examples as cases where this logic has been taught to me by Christians.

I would be happy to have the chance to understand and respond further to your specific occult interpretations in light of your special revelation. I am not quite a mind reader...
