Blade_Runner Loc: DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

You don't have a freaking clue what it means to be a true Christian, and your opinion of the Bible is sheer ignorance.

Considered by scholars as one the world's greatest works of literature, the Holy Bible cannot possibly be "poorly written", and as far as being "old", the Bible still remains the number one best selling and most widely distributed book in human history. Even the Guinness Book of World Records holds that the best-selling book of all time is the Christian Bible.

Bible passages regarding homosexuality, bestiality, paganism, and a baby in the womb could only be misinterpreted by ignorant fools.

When God became flesh and dwelt among us, He did not come simply to heal the sick, feed the hungry, lift up the poor, or raise the dead, He performed such miracles to demonstrate His power, but His mission is to redeem mankind, to save men from their sins.

At His trial, Jesus told the Roman prelate His kingdom "is not of this world".

Thank you

Jesus and his parents sought asylum from Herod.
Jesus was a baby as were most the DACA kids, or at least were so small they were young enough to have no choice but to go with their parents.

The Holy Family returned home when the threat ended.
They sought asylum in Egypt from violence.

You insulted me.
Then you ask for my help with someone else objecting to your posts.

I gave my assistance without hesitation.
Yet you STILL insult me without a simple “Thanks” for giving you the aid you so desperately sought.

Thanks folks.
The people who tell lies about me are like gnats that are too annoying to ignore, but can easily be swatted away.
Only to return again and again with the same annoying lies.

Have you heard of the Scientologists' "squirrels"?

That's what they remind me of.

Quit with your bald-face lies and advertising how gullible you are!! NO Trump did NOT threaten the American people with violence - he was talking about the auto industry and you know it but you being the good little Democrat parrot that you are, just keep repeating Democrat lies!!! You must support Marxism with all your support for Democrats who openly supported the Marxist BLM!!

martsiva used the term correctly.

The term bold-faced lie refers to an obvious, shameless lie, one that the liar makes little or no effort to disguise as the truth.
Bold-faced lie means the same thing as two other similar phrases, bald-faced lie and barefaced lie.
All three of these terms typically imply that the lie is told shamelessly, without a real attempt to conceal the deception. In other words, the teller is so brash that they don’t care whether the lie is recognized as a lie. In some cases, they might even want it to be recognized as one in order to provoke the person or people they’re telling it to.
For this reason, bold-faced lie and its synonymous terms are always used critically.
Example: It’s fascinating that his statements, which are so obviously bold-faced lies, are so convincing to some people.
The adjective bold-faced means “brazen.” While bold-faced has been used to describe brazen people since the late 1500s, the phrase bold-faced lie came about much later, gaining widespread use during the 1900s.

Though some consider bold-faced lie to be the result of a mishearing of bald-faced lie, both phrases are in common use.
The term bald-faced has been used since at least the mid-1600s.

Bold-faced lie is always used critically. Calling something a bold-faced lie is meant to indicate that it’s especially brazen—and therefore extremely frustrating or insulting to the person or people it’s being told to.

If you wanted a descriptor for such a lie in the 19th century, chances are you would have opted for barefaced (or in its slightly less common variant form, bare-faced). Lies (and, less frequently, liars) have been described as "barefaced" since at least the 1830s.
And then, in the late 20th century, the term bold-faced (less commonly, boldfaced) got into the game. Since the late 16th century (back when barefaced was first describing beardless folks), the word had meant "bold in manner or conduct," or "impudent." It was a word used to describe brazenly rude types. But in the second half of the 20th century, the word began to modify lie, as well as liar, with a frequency that increased as the century wore on:
that people of otherwise unblemished character told him bold-faced lies when he inquired about their knowledge of, and involvement with, the Iowa Baseball Confederacy.
— W. P. Kinsella, Sports Illustrated, 14 Apr. 1986
Its use was sometimes questioned. A character in a 1991 Bobbie Ann Mason story called "Rolling Into Atlanta" says "People everywhere saying they're sincere and they seem sincere, but at the same time they're living a bold-faced lie." Another character responds, correcting her, "You mean a bald-faced lie," to which she replies, "I thought it was 'bold-faced' Like a headline."

It's possible that's what all the new "bold-faced lie" users were thinking. The late 20th century was a time of increased intimacy with word processing and the various typeface options it permitted, including bold. The evidence is not conclusive, but one very large database of primarily news sources shows a dramatic increase in the use of "bold-faced lie" in 2008—and a dramatic increase in the use of "bold-faced type" during the same year. Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not.

The current status of this trio of lie-and-liar descriptors is this: both bold-faced and bald-faced are used, but bald-faced is decidedly the preferred term in published, edited text.
Barefaced is the oldest, and is still in use, but it's the least common.
To report otherwise would be a bald-faced lie.
