re: The Hamilton Corner - The BLM Connection to Witchcraft
Posted by Zion on 9/9/20 at 9:44 am to Wolfhound45
so, honest question, because Im imaging what other religions must see when the high point of a Christian service is when someone in ceremonial robes stands in front of the room and holds up a gold chalice of what is supposed to be blood, and then says (or sings), “through him, with him, in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honor is yours, almighty Father, forever and ever." And then everyone in the room says "Amen" back at him.
And the point of that is to call upon The Holy Spirit to use its power to turn bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ, in a literal sense, they even capitalize the words "Blood" and "Body" now, thats how important it is, one thing is now said to have fully changed into another.
And then everyone there eats someone. And drinks his blood.
And this happens every week. Some people do it every day. They bring their children.
No one finds that odd?
If what this other religion is doing is witch craft, what is transubstantiation? What is the Eucharistic prayer if not special words to call upon some unseen magic power?
You can do all that but someone else is evil when they say the name of someone who died and then "Ase", that's where you draw the line?
You don't see any way how this might be hypocritical?

I was a kid in the 80s/90s when LSU made football look like it was an essentially impossible, Curley Hallmans permanently dumfounded face on the sideline is the image that got hard wired in me, so even now I cant quite fully grasp that we really are a program that has appointment games 3 months from now.
We're a name that can just casually be mentioned along with The Masters because our brands are the same size and I may never get over that.

dude is gonna have 30 and 5 at 60 percent, but because of Burrow people here will still be like, "is this motherfricker blind or something, is he actively trying to lose games!"

like, even with all the program has done in regards to recruiting, for 20 years now, and all the Diamond Class Elite players who have come through, theres still something about the 2020 team where youre like "god damn thats amazing".

Personally I dont care what the motivation is, if its safe this needs to be done everywhere, getting troops home is the only part that matters. frick the "why", tell me "when".

serious question; where do you get this shite from?
What are you talking about?
There are 20 threads a day here about how much you hate the players and the coaches, and how dumb you think they are, and what the ratings are like, and how you hope they all go broke because youre all done with it and youll never watch a game again, and then that means even more posts about what you do now instead of watching games, and god forbid trump tweet anything saying the same because thatll be another 10 pages on that.
Youre the ones hoping and wishing and praying for sports to die. Theres no version of this from liberals. None.

It’s tied with social justice issues that most people are sensitive to. It isn’t simply economic class warfare any longer. It is racial justice, environmental justice, feminism, trans rights, and other intersectional issues being pushed as justice but which require Marxist revolutions to implement.
people who care about racial justice, environmental justice, feminism, and trans rights want communism like Jewish people want Nazism. You cant just list things you dont like and lump them together, thats not how it works.
quote:look man, if you want to rant about communists all night by all means go for it, but BLM absolutely does not call themselves communist, and antifa couldnt even if they wanted to because theres no one in charge. Its not even an organization much less a communist one.
They call themselves communist you dumb frick. ANTIFA is a communist organization, try reading something other than twitter post from other fart sniffing idiots.

she's claiming both to be true, she's adding this to that, its not an edit.

quote:oh I agree completely, I have no idea how this became the standard, 2020 should have made the disconnect perfectly clear. Unemployment is at 8.4 (up from 3.6 in Jan), and GDP was down in the 2nd by 9.5 percent (or 31.7, however you want to look at it), and yet the market is doing fine, and trump takes credit for it. so here we are.
this is an already refuted point. the stock market does not always directly affect a president's economic policies

quote:maybe Im wrong, thats certainly possible, wouldnt be the first time, by all means link where he says he'll mandate masks. Him actually saying it, not your interpretation of an interview or a "fake news" headline, but him saying it.
Sure, lib, whatever helps you sleep at night.
Apparently its his biggest campaign promise, it shouldn't be hard to find.
re: Sloppy Joe flip flops on national mask mandate

quote:August 16: "We need nationwide mask mandates."
He originally tweeted about a mask mandate.
Mandates. Plural. As in 50 of them.
August 13: “Every single American should be wearing a mask when they’re outside for the next three months at a minimum. Every governor should mandate mandatory mask wearing. The estimates by the experts are that it will save over 40,000 lives in the next three months. Forty thousand lives, if people act responsibly.”
Thats the same thing he says here, he talks about it being local, he's said he wants the governors to do it and he'll do whatever he can to get them on board.

trump inherited what he inherited - crap. and then the economy took off like almost never before.
heres 1.1.2009 until today. pace is the same. if anything things look more erratic under trump.
quote:
DJIA actually closed below 18k on 11/4/2016. Any gains between election an inauguration would much more likely be due to optimism from a president elect Trump than any lasting Obama policies.
dude are you kidding me with this?
first of all, no, the cut off date is never ever election day, its inaccurate enough to make it inauguration day but thats the one everyone uses. especially since, for the first half of Obamas final year, the market went from 16,000 to 18,600. Thats +16.25 percent.
The second half went 18,600 to 19,800. Thats +6.4 percent.
growth did not magically spike because of optimism over trump. It did in fact slow down.
quote:
So Obama moved the ATH from 14k to 18k in 8 years (+29%). Trump took it from 18k to 29k in <4 years (61%).
and I cant even put this level of bias into words. Youre not only cutting Obams number off early, but in what fantasy world was the market at 14,000 when he took over? You dont just ignore that it dropped to 8,000 before he even started, and then still use 14,000 for his 8 year number.
this isnt even good bias, its so instantly transparently stupid I dont know why you even bothered to write it down.
I never compared Obama to trump but we can if you want; in Obamas second term the market went from 13,649 to 19,827. Thats +45.26 percent.
19,827 to trumps peak of 29,398 is +48.27 percent.

Jeffrey Goldberg, a full on Obama lackey reported this shite.
I dont have an opinion on this either way, on one hand its impossible to "know" it happened without audio, and on the other hand trump has no filter, he will absolutely berate anyone at anytime if they annoy him. So Im sittin this one out, but 4 people reporting the same thing is noteworthy. At the very least someone in the White House is telling them that.

Myth two ... The Us was headed toward a depression. BS
By the time Obama takes his shoes off in the White House, the results of the Real Estate Bubble were subsiding. There was no coming depression.
Obama talked his way into stimulus money to be used to "stop the blood flow" Really? Giving money to Union Bosses stopped the blood flow? If you have an economics professor spewing that crap ...it's time to change classes.
What in Obama's past leads anyone to believe that he could save the world economically? He simply does not have nor ever did have the talent or experience.
Watching his Economic Advisors over the years has been laughable at best. The best they can claim is they somehow stopped the bleed. The economy was healing itself.
in the 15 months before Obama took office, the market dropped from an all time high of 14,000 down to 8,000. It lost 43 percent.
During his term it then went from 8,000 to 20,000 (thats +150, if you were wondering)
But sure, ok. No depression. Didnt stop the bleeding. Everything fixed itself. His advisors were laughable and youre the genius.
That all makes perfect sense.
