Protestants believe that Catholic's worship relics not Jesus.
Really? That’s a pretty major misunderstanding.
Relics to us are a slippery slope. Sometimes they get too much attention and become idolatrous in heart. The shroud is fascinating, but we should always ask ourselves: what is more Holy, the place where the Messiah walked or the Messiah himself? As a follower of Jesus, I believe objects are best left alone because they really aren't important. Personally following The Father's will with the help of The Holy Spirit is.

Be truthful for a moment. Why do you take offense to this thread yet never feel the need to defend the dine and dash threads about black people on the OT that pop up once every few weeks
You hear what you want to hear. Wasn't the original post about stereotypes? Which one? I dont go on the OT forum. Dont even know what it is. But you sure are trying to make it "all jews steal" or whatever you're trying to say. Why dont YOU just come on out and say what you're trying to make a point of. Should be easy if it is so true.

Is your message "jews are bad"? Is this what I'm suppose to say? I wont.

Stealing is wrong, but this was about more than that. It's the "more than that" part of the OP I take issue with.

Yep cause if there's one thing Trump is known for, it's allowing world leaders to put a leash around his foreign policy.

This administration has also threatened news agencies to get on board and only report its narrative or their licenses will be revoked. Donald Bush is quickly Transing into Donald Mussolini.
Competely an emotional response. They are not telling the media to "report their narrative". They are going after blatant lies that are used to foment anger and resistance, specifically the kind that lead to rioting, lawfare, and illegal activities. I agree with this. Media for decades has hidden this agenda under the First Amendment cloak. Time to fix it.
re: Trump caps credit card interest at 10%

Yup they are all miserable ppl who just want to complain
Most of these people simply have more money which makes this a non-issue for them. Why tinker with the support beams when it woked out for them? It's exactly why politicians aren't as motivated to change much of anything substantial. They've gotten ahead by rigging the system to their advantage.
I have a credit score over 800 on a lower income than most on here i bet, and I think the lower the taxation/apr/fees etc. there are in life, the better. By the way, I have had a card for 20+ years and never paid late but they always jack up the APR because, why not. Dumb on them because I pay it off every month

The same people who complain about Trump not tackling affordability are also now complaining that Trump is tackling affordability. You want Trump to deliver, supposedly, but then you want to handcuff him. You want him to only follow your approved methods.
Once again, the procedure is more important than the results.
There's also no need to be upset before anything becomes a reality. There's a good chance this is Trump making the first move in a negotiation with the credit card companies. I know the president negotiating with companies is still wrong to the "true conservatives," but we have to be honest. Your methods haven't delivered.
Corporations have taken advantage of the American people. The wealth gap they created is not sustainable. When it reaches a point, there is violence. I'd prefer not to reach that point just because our principles tell us we're virtuous for putting the almighty dollar above everything else.
This is also for one year. Crying because bankers won't make even more profit for a few months is ridiculous. Do people not remember the bailouts? Conservatives were against that, but now they're against the people getting some of that money back. It's insane how conservatives shoot themselves in the foot and tell you how they're better for doing so.
Dude absolutely amen to all of this. Crony capitalism has almost all of the money at the top and indoctrinates the people on all the good reasons it should stay there while they continue to pile on even more money in their accounts from the same people they indoctrinated. Now our "principled conservatives" are amazed why the middle and lower income conservatives are applauding these changes. Greed has caused the conservative doctrine to adjust. Don't like it? Should have done more to curb the corporations from adding too many bricks on the backbones of the working class. I know what this sounds like to traditional fiscal conservatives, but it has to happen if the powerful don't know how to give a little grace and mercy.

Now this is true! I see this all the time.
People just need to understand that there are pessimists and optimists. Even I lean on the pessimist side and unfortutunately express frustration negatively too quickly sometimes. Blame it on a character flaw and the greatest CFB coach of all time training me as a fan to expect excellence. But us quick tempered folks always come back home to reality. My mother is the exact opposite of me and its difficult to watch games with her at times, but it's just two different lenses we see through. Chalk it up to excitement, disappointment, or whatever and lets just move on.

Ya'll this is at the top. Let's all face it, the coaches are to blame for all of this, especially the unwillingness to try different approaches. I dont blame ty, or the receivers, the o line...this is specifically on CKD and Grubb.

Thanks Pratt, though I think we will be in the minority. I was thinking the same thing when I read this thread, I can see how the holocaust happened as well.
Here's my thing...I get the right's frustration with American Jewish identity and their usual love for all things progressive, but I stop short of seeing them all as evil and incapable of redemption. I also will admit I am a zionist as I believe God gave them that land and told them they would return to it after exhile in the last days, which has proven true. Even if one does not believe in that version of zionism as described in the scriptures or zionism at all, I still would never see them in the same light as many do on this board. Their argument seems pragmatic as they portray i(lt (such as saving money and lives by not funding them finacially or militarily) , but it goes deeper. You can see it in the responses to every thread.
Why cant we see that worldview, ideology and in some cases religious zeal (of the bad variety) are the cause of all of these issues.
All these conspiracy theories vomited lately on this site regarding Jews, seems contrived from the heart of someone with an axe to grind or like an AI script. The uptick of these posts leads me to belive there are probably shills posting stuff just to rile the ignorant and grow the cause. There is plenty of blame to hand out, but Israel and the Jews are not one of them.

Judging from the fact we can never get to the second page of a thread without someone commenting "the jews, the jews", Id say number two hit the mark
This. My God, this place has turned into 1938 nazi propaganda. The jews seemingly are in control of all things evil. It's amazing to see history repeating itself and the only thing left is to start marking jewish owned businesses with that little yellow star.

No I expected a slightly different mode of playing by the newbs along with the fake high of being in the best conference (see Mizzou and aTm). Wait till you're newness wears off and you realize you need more than just offense to win. OU was use to checking a box for conference champion in the Big12. You'll have to actually have to try more consistently in the SEC to earn it here.

But, if Oregon, Indiana and OSU are ranked higher than most in the SEC, and other metrics are saying that the SEC top to bottom better than the B1G then the disparity has to come from somewhere, does it not? It would then have to come from the middle down part of the conference and that would be Vanderbilt and Missouri, would it not? If so, then they would be tough games. You either have to concede that the top teams of the B1G are overrated, or concede that the mid tier teams of the SEC are much better than mid tier teams of the B1G.
I think OSU deserves to be #1 and Indiana and Oregon are very good teams, too.
I think you are dismissing Missouri and Vanderbilt based off their past lack of success...but if you are going to do that, then you should do the same for Indiana and at least a bit for Oregon, shouldn't you?
Logic. Great argument.
