I cannot imagine,Michael what you went through My husband and I went through 3 years of very lean times when construction went bust in New York, but we managed to make it twithout depriving our children of food. Long story that isn't pertinent to my comment.
I can't fathom parents not having food to feed their children because, not of their own doing, but the cruelty of the Republican party. My heart breaks for those that go hungry. .
For those who profess to be "Christians", Barry Goldwater once said "“Mark my words,, if and when these preachers get control of the Republican party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.”
Theere are a lot of serious quotes from Goldwater but once in a while, he was funny. He once said of Hubert Humphrey, “[He]talks so fast that listening to him is like trying to read Playboy magazine with your wife turning the pages..”:
The often quoted " "The false prophet will come wrapped in a flag carrying a bible." doesn't seem to come from any where that I could find. But James Waterman Wise, Jr. in the Christian Century (Feb.5, 1936) who noted that Hearst and Coughlin were the two chief exponents of fascism in America. If fascism comes, he added, it will not be identified with any “shirt” movement, nor with an “insignia,” but it will probably be “wrapped up in the American flag and heralded as a plea for liberty and preservation of the constitution” (245).
Another version is from Halford E. Luccock, in Keeping Life Out of Confusion (1938): “When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labeled ‘made in Germany’; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, ‘Americanism.'” Harrison Evans Salisbury in The Many Americas Shall Be One (1971) remarked “Sinclair Lewis aptly predicted in It Can’t Happen Here that if fascism came to America it would come wrapped in the flag and whistling ‘The Star Spangled Banner'” .
Jo, I cannot find where you said something about calling themselves pro-life Christians. They are so far from being Christians that Satan is applauding them and pushing them to being more cruel. The convicted felon is a GOAT, so is everyone in his administration and so are all the MAGA supporters.
As it says in Matthew:25:31-33
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne.
32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
The verses continue to the end verses 45, 46
45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
I take comfort in the fact that the GOATS will be comdemed to the fires of hell for all eternity!.
Sorry this was so long but once started I couldn't stop.
Micheal looks lighter like a heavy load has been taken off his conscience
