US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[Soycast Guy]

the founding fathers themselves

Jefferson, Franklin where deists. As for the rest of them I think they were mostly anglicans

They where not atheists, even the deist founding fathers talked about providence

So what’s the difference between a deist and a Christian?

So what’s the difference between a deist and a Christian?

A deist rejects the divinity of Jesus Christ and also rejects the idea that God directly intervenes in creation. A deist holds to essentially the clockwork theory of the universe in which God winds up the clock and it ticks inexorably until the end, but without direct personal intervention by God along the way.

Trump is likely to "be killed" before the election and the only outstanding question at this point is whether the death will be faked and whether Trump is in on it, in order to bring this country to full-fledged Civil War.

I don’t care about the founders’ religious leanings, tell me more about how you think they might fake Trump’s death, that’s a new one.

George Washington, the founding father of the country, was a childless man. Totally unfit to run the country.

Not only that but he raised another man’s kids.
What a cuck

No, you don't know what "allegory" means and have badly misused the word. Additionally, you make a joke out of God's blessing, treating it like a magic spell that a bunch of deists and heathens could invoke on command. Newsflash: It doesn't work that way.

You seriously haven't heard about how Jefferson went through his personal Bible and removed all miracles associated with Christ? That's blasphemy, and it's what Jefferson did.

Nigga, what do you think "prayer" is? It's a meditative commune between a person and God to invoke God's blessing. Yes, like a magic spell. To that extent, there's not really much of a difference. Maybe magic isn't a great term for it, but it's the same concept. That's why it's referred to as "God's Magic". The term is interchangeable as long as the intent of reverence is still there. You're autisticly screeching about semantics.

The Bible never describes prayer as "God's magic." What is wrong with you? The idea that people who didn't even believe God intervened in the world would have placed some multi-century blessing upon the United States is the most retarded thing I've ever read on this Message Board.

Helping Down ticket/ Long Island is actually very red overall and supposedly he might have a chance at flipping New York because his conviction there scared the hell out of real estate owners.

Latatia James has pissed off a lot of people.

maybe lit a fire under the curry witch so she spend money there.

Quinnipiac infamously terrible poll is back


KAMALA IS UP 6% Pennsylvania BUT SHE IS ONLY UP 1% Wisconsin.


LOL.

>trump abortion ban trending
>they're just completely content to misconstrue the overturning

No, I will not forget about covid and being told I need to get the jab right before the narrative switched on bodily autonomy since roe v wade was overturned at the tail end of covid.
No, I will not forget about all the immigrants let into the country by the democrats that make life worse for everyone and not just women.
No, I will not cry about whores and blacks who suffer complications either of a health, social, or financial nature because of their bad decisions.
And no, I will not immediately decry anyone who sounds like a nazi, because now I realize why Hitler managed to gain power. And he respected (white) women greatly.

So why call it prayer and not magic?

LOL.

They're more confident in the Fortification of Pennsylvania, then, and may consider giving up Wisconsin for "plausibility." They're probably aiming to give Kamala an electoral vote total in the high 200s to feed the narrative of a "close election." So she'll keep Pennsylvania, she'll keep Michigan, and based on past results, she'll probably keep Arizona, as elections there are more rigged than almost anywhere else in the country.

I'm surprised this shit can even be done by mail. Identification and validation really should be an in-person thing. The shit's good for ten years anyway, I think you can spare one morning eight times in your life for this.

The validation is technically done "in-person". You have to send in your actual birth certificate and a separate photo ID (not copies) for your first application and the actual passport for subsequent renewals. The mail-in part is because the state department doesn't have offices around the country but USPS does. USPS personnel do the initial checks and then the documents are forwarded to the state department for confirmation and issuance. You can't really just fill out a form and mail it in yourself.



If you're in Montana, are you willing to spend 100s of dollars to go to Seattle just to renew your $130 passport?

The online renewal also only applies for renewal where nothing is changing (i.e., just extending the validity).

So why call it prayer and not magic?

It's Theurgy vs. Sorcery. Sorcery/magic is changing the world around you to suit your base whims, Theurgy/prayer is strengthening your link to the Divine.

 

[The Ugly One]

Most of the Founders were some variation of Christian, some more devout (Roger Sherman) some not so much (George Washington) or Christian-leaning deist (John Adams, James Madison). Jefferson and Paine were the most closely aligned with modern fedora-tippers. You can go through the list of the Second Continental Congress and find adherents of most churches in the mix. Charles Carroll was a Catholic, for example.

Because it wasn't serious. You're getting mad about the equivalent of a joke. You're a literal tard getting MATI.

If you aren't retarded, get the fuck out!

I think it has nothing to do with a prayer, but that it was extremely important for the US to get to this point. Theology sperging here. So some of the founding fathers had close calls, specifically George Washington, and being the first president it was important for him to live. In the Bible there’s the “last kingdom” before the end times, which I’d say is the US. As I was saying though, George Washington had to live so we could get to this point in our history, and that brings us to Trump. As far as I know, trump has already survived four attempts. Obviously he’s needed for something, what that is though I have no idea. Is it merely to become president? Is it for a greater purpose? I guess we’ll see. But yeah anyway, there’s obviously some divine intervention going on, which means that the founding fathers that were deists were, hilariously, wrong.

it’s worth noting even Paine and Jefferson still talked about providence

Ron Paul was just on CNN calling out Hillary and MSNBC for encouraging continued assassination attempts

Dude just flat out said that Hillary, the MSM drones and the Democrats want Trump dead and that attacks will continue.

Pretty ballsy Paul, better make sure your own security is on par or you might commit suicide by 3 gunshots to the back of the head. Calling out Hillary is a terminal disease.

May he be remembered as based after he commits suicide to the back of the head 5 times.
