Well, racism does exist among stupid and/or massively unreasonable people (of any race) - and the best advice is to avoid those people/areas they live in.

Competition for yard work is more severe than you think. I mean, most of your conservatives would want to give the "Get off your hind-end and mow a lawn, lazy!" - but it's not what it seems. Also, wages and competition differ by area. For instance, my relative makes a killing - just...

Well, as I mentioned in the thread about The Spoiled Poor - the solution is to integrate marginalized groups, rising their standard of living and also probably lowering their abortion rates.

Iv'e changed several times. However, I'm now pretty much settled with Christian Univeralism.

People preachy and obsessed with right-wing politics are into "white identity politics" - most of the time. How is that possibly different than other types?

Levels of racism and bigotry vary among conservative Christians and/or conservative people, in general. I mean, some distrust of oppressed groups seems fine - something the cultural left won't do - but the hate displayed by "hate groups" is another matter.

Obviously, it's better to teach a person to fish, than give him a fish - as noted! However, the vast swathes of poor in the third world are already fishing - yet nothing of it! So what I was getting at is that this model shows the poor in the US, UK etc. are the same. Anyway, it's more than...

Well, honestly, I don't like religion and church mixing - and there is a whole historical account, of thousands of years, to justify it! Nonetheless, it might be inevitable anyway. What I mean is that religion is often tied in with morality - with the Christians or Catholic Christians favoring...

It would be interesting to see what percentage use the system - and also - as I was saying - lack of welfare in Haiti or Colombia hasn't made the poor there richer.

A common argument among conservatives in the US is that the poor are spoiled, that they are deterred from manning up, getting a job - simply cause they get free money. Well, anyway, what are some counter-arguments? Well, one involves the fact that poor also exist in the third world, they get...

In that case, why can't conservatives understand Black Lives Matter? :disgonbegood:

Most racists and liberals want to inject race, the first does it to provoke a white backlash - on purpose, the other in some kind of naive way.

But "smoking around kids" is a different matter. I mean, tobacco or anything else - maybe not vaping.

I get the sarcasm. But what I actually mean is "the incredible arrogance" that some conservatives display. Everything is about money and snob behavior is over-the-top!

Well, supporters claim those who oppose it are "whiny people who can't accept God's sovereignty". Nonetheless, the whole idea of Double Predestination is simply contrary to God's own moral code. Well, actually I would go so far, to also put eternal hell and torturing (as in cruelty) hell in...

Mud slinging has been going on since the start of the country. For instance, Lincoln's opponent (for Senate) was mocked as a "mama's boy" and Van Buren was accused of being a "rich sissy who eats with golden kitchenware". This is not new - and I don't doubt Trump is smart. However, though...

Well, honestly, regardless of politcal fallout, or what seems to be a waste, Congress has a duty to enforce the law. They have to impeach him for obstruction of justice. That's all there is to it! I say, this while not saying if I support Trump or not.

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ted-nugents-jailbait-problem_b_4840060 Well, even though I agree with a lot Ted Nugent says - and surely the author of this article is a strongly biased liberal who hates hillbillies, I have to admit the article is making a good point. Nonetheless, this...

The other side has people exactly the same - only in the other direction! Anyway, this "identity politics" stuff has driven me up the wall However, I don't have to listen to it. I can defriend these people! But a trolling mean, side of me wants to watch. :disgonbegood:

Well, in my Christian Universalist beliefs, I certainly believe he died for all - but I believe all will eventually be saved - though, maybe not in this life cycle. Anyway, the alternative simply causes too much of a problem with the Predestination idea. I mean, Presbyterians have it right in...
