You blame others for being rude, yet here you are.

I am not a Trump fan. But I am, with a heavy heart, seriously considering voting for him as I believe that the far leftist and anti-Christian policies that come with Walz and Harris will destroy our nation. You say that it isn't "Christian" to "attack people on a personal level". YOU just did!! You said that people who vote for Trump are deeply depraved or profoundly ignorant. Those are harsh words and heavy insults. Do you not see that? There are people here voting for Trump. They took your statements VERY personally.

What year did this happen? Just curious.

Tim Walz's political beliefs ARE his religious beliefs and vice versa. His church claims to be an ELCA church. I looked that up and those religious statements read EXACTLY like the political tenets of the left. Yes, I know that many on the right blend their religious beliefs with their politics. But to say that the hard core left does not do that is not wise. ELCA: Christian denomination or left wing of Democratic Party? (christianpost.com)

For certain, the Democrat Party today is not his father's and uncle's Democrat Party.

Genesis 1 is about the Creation and Rest. Not much detail, only explanation that it, indeed happened. I accept it ALL by faith. Genesis 2 is a detailed explanation of day 6. There WERE NO people before Adam. There were not two Creations of humans. The Bible so clearly states that there was no death before sin. And it states that through Adam came sin and death. If before Adam, there was no sin - why did all of those people die?

This new poster has taken offense at something that I said. He said that they are not going to read my reply so my reply will be for everyone who read his comment to me expressing their pain at my post. To peacemaker 324..... Perhaps we have terribly misconstrued each other. I took your comment that the government was not to interfere with our bodies as you being pro-abortion. My sincerest apologies for misunderstanding you. I don't like hurting people's feelings. I am sorry.

The liberal media cut him off early and would not show the whole speech. Today they are calling him "Coo-Coo for Cocoa Puffs" and calling he and Trump "Dumb and Dumber". Read it if you want. I'm not a fan of RFK Jr., but he spoke the absolute truth. RFK Jr. Address to the Nation: Full Transcript — IM (im1776.com)

To me, it's not the key states like California and my state, Louisiana. Everybody knows that California is going to vote for Harris and Louisiana for Trump. Texas for Trump and Minnesota for Harris. No need to do a lot of campaigning there. It's the swing states. The ones that we usually can't predict how they will vote. Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. That's where Trump/Vance and Harris/Walz are spending their time. Whoever wins is going to HAVE to take Pennsylvania [19], Georgia [16], North Carolina [16], Michigan [15], and Arizona [11]. Oh, if Trump wants to win - he is going to need Ohio. No Republican has ever won the presidency without Ohio. Some have lost with Ohio as he did in 2020, but none have won without it.

I posted because I was aware that we don't hold the same position. All I can do is hope that you can one day believe what the Bible says about the unborn. Because we don't hold the same beliefs about the Bible and the unborn does not mean that I can't and won't welcome you to the forums. Welcome aboard.

If we are talking about heart surgery or getting dental implants, then NO - the government should never get involved in telling us what to do with our bodies. The problem - the incredibly and insanely massive problem is - that a pregnant woman carries an entirely separate body in her womb. A body that the Bible teaches is separate, distinct from the mother, and alive from conception. And so many who believe "my body my choice" - are woefully ignorant of that fact. Purposefully denying that God created a separate body in their womb. Who speaks for the unborn? Who cares for and protects THAT body? [1] Psalm 139:13-16 ~ For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. [2] Jeremiah 1:5 ~ "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you -" There is SO MUCH more. Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist experienced the Holy Spirit fall on the fetus in Mary's presence and he "leaped" in the womb and she began to prophecy. He was filled with the Holy Spirit IN the womb. Isaac's wife Rebekah carried twins and they "fought" in the womb to the point that she had to go to God and ask what was wrong. He told her that they would grow to be two separate nations that would struggle. The life in the womb IS A SEPARATE BODY. A separate human being. "My body, my choice" and let's just kill the baby is not from God.

I'm praying....

I'm in therapy myself for depression. My advice? Tell your therapist everything and always be honest and ask, ask, ask for helps. Mine gives me "homework" sometimes. I'll be praying specifically for the daycare situation to work out.

It's a HUGE deal. This is JFK's nephew; RFK's son. Just the name and family alone carries clout. His explanation of why he left the Democratic party was enlightening. It won't bring a huge amount of votes for Trump, but perhaps enough.

She is going wherever the Democratic machine leads her. They don't care that she isn't credible. She KNOWS that she isn't credible. She's not in charge.

I hate abortion, but what you are saying is very, very cruel and harsh. Why ask her what she wants to do if you are just going to refuse consent and tell her that her wishes don't count? There has GOT TO BE a better way to do this.

She could not consent to the rape. She MUST be able to consent to the birth of her own free will.

Yes, Debp, we all know that. But do you understand that his false teachings live on and on and on. His books are still in book stores. And Franklin Graham? Did you listen to Trump's acceptance speech at the RNC? He said that Franklin had counseled him to stop using horrible language and then he laughed and said that he didn't know about that. Donald Trump's "spiritual advisor" during his first term was Paula White. She gave the invocation at his inauguration and he put her ON HIS STAFF as an official member in terms of some kind of faith initiative. This woman is about as whack-a-doodle as they come! She makes Norman Vincent Peale look like the Apostle Paul. I fear that many people will go to hell because of this woman, her pastorate, and her false, false teachings. She is part of the "health and wealth" crowd. And that's just the beginning of it. I'm not going to speak about him anymore here at Worthy. All I do is make people mad and uncomfortable. And I, for some reason, cannot get anyone to understand that this man needs great prayer to be saved and that, while he is capable of change, he is NOT a man of decency that the office of President needs even though I am voting for him and I feel he will go in. I do not understand why people excuse him nor why I do not seem to be able to make a dent in the understanding of how SICK our nation is and how we are under the judgment of God RIGHT NOW and have been for YEARS no matter who goes into office in January. I will leave with this. I am voting for him. I am praying for him to be under the influence of TRUE and Godly and mature Christians. And.... MY eyes are wide wide open!

I don't disagree. I understand what you are saying about the baby in the womb receiving mercy. And it's always a relief to hear from an adult rape victim who chose to keep her baby. And how that situation turned out OK. I just want to know how are parents going to explain to that 10-year-old or 14-year-old rape victim that she unmercifully gets no choice of her own in the matter. She has NO say. I just want to know what the literal words are. This isn't like telling them that they cannot have a boyfriend or that they must clean their room. I'm just deeply interested in what the conversation looks like. How do you tell a very, very young rape victim that they are having a baby and they have no choice about it.

A few weeks ago, Trump was being interviewed by Laura Ingrahm. She said, "Do you believe in Heaven?" He said, "Yes! And if I am good I will go there. And if I am bad, I'll go to the other place." I want the man to go to Heaven, but I don't think he gets it right now. I think he knows about Jesus and believes he is real and that the afterlife is real. His spiritual mentor was Norman Vincent Peale, a "pastor" who preach the power of positive thinking. How can his faith deepen, if his faith is not in Jesus Christ. Here is an excerpt from an interview he had in 2016 about what he believes in terms of repentance and forgiveness. Granted, this was 8 years ago, but coupled with what he said three weeks ago with Laura Ingrahm, I just don't believe he truly gets it. Trump: I hope I don't have to ask 'for much forgiveness' from God - POLITICO There's been too much influence from the false teacher, Dr. Peale. This is why he is and will be on my prayer list. When I pray for him, I pray for him to come to know Christ as the Bible teaches and that he will humble himself before God.

I'm not talking about bullying anyone. And I haven't brought up any "government organization." Let's say you have a 10-year-old daughter. She got a bad rash on her back, chest, and arms. The doctor in the ER tells you that she has syphilis. You are in shock. Your wife is in shock. The attending nurse says that your daughter tearfully confessed that her uncle raped her a month ago and she was too, too scared to tell. Then the doctor tells you that she is pregnant. After you pick yourself up off of the floor, how are you going to convince her that you and her mother are going to insist that she have the baby. I know it's not a simple conversation.

I'm not a widow as I've never married, but I've know many - including my mother who is now deceased. "Endure in silence"? = Why? Not if you don't want to. "Burden your family"? Why not? I don't mean a literal burden of bondage. But why not seek them out? "Seek out more to do"? Yes. My mother did not do this as much as I wanted her to. I should have insisted on more and did not. "How long to feel 'normal' again"? You may never feel that way. It's almost impossible. Death makes us feel not normal. And our normal changes. It's the "new normal" we have to adjust to. "How long to say we or us"? As long as you need to. No, I do NOT stay away from people in grief or peril.

Debp, as I had told you, I am voting for Trump albeit reluctantly. But I don't understand what you mean by "moreso" of a believer.

Ummm....that's kind of easy to answer. [1] American birth rate per year = about 3,700,000 per year American abortion rate per year = it varies, but about 800,000 per year [2] Countless women who have had abortions either go on to have other children or have previously had other children. [3] Belief in abortion isn't inherited.

I think everyone knows that the upper echelon of powerful Democrats don't take her seriously. But you can take this to the bank. You and I had better take THEM seriously!! They are hellbound on getting her into office. She's just a pawn in all of this - the whole world knows this. Just like Joe Biden was. Don't underestimate the government behind the government in the Democratic party!
