    My, my, my, FTW. You took a graph from a study and quite incorrectly described its function. Unsurprisingly, you were called out for it. You should have just owned up to it. But no.

    Instead you are trying to cover up your exposed ignorance by attempting to ignorantly correct the one who outted you. You pulled this same trick not long ago when I outted you for posting a lying leftist meme about the current Senate.

    For her sins have piled up as high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Pay her back even as she has paid, and give back to her double according to her deeds; in the cup which she has mixed, mix twice as much for her [Revelation 18;5-6].

    If Jesus is God, he 'asked' (LOL) a number of wars to be started in his name-- the invasion of Canaan, then Moab, Edom, Philistia. In the 'interTestament' period, did He authorize wars against the Greeks, Persians, and Romans?

    And how are we to obey his orders and pay back twice to Babylon, the city that rules over the kings of the earth [Revelation17:5,6,18] when we'll be paying back for the blood of the saint of which she is drunk [guilty] (v.6) without war?

    CMG, you are right, but it's even worse than that. His response is like straining at a gnat while swallowing a camel, but also just flat out wrong in every way. FTW quoted a general statement about the study, not one about that particular graph. Had he bothered to look a little deeper, he would have known this, and should have known this. 777 rightly described the lone graph, and offered to show him one regarding FB.

    That is intellectually dishonest. Your posts consistently and glaringly demonstrate someone who shares the Marxist/Socialist anti-American stance of the Democrat party. At least be an honest Liberal and grow enough manhood to tell the truth.

    Yeah, so you enjoy freedoms that are protected by Christians in the military and you spit on their service when you make ignorant comments like that. If you are against the military, you should not be enjoying the freedoms that they protect and you should renounce your citizenship and go live in another country.

    Greg Boyd is a heretic. I am familiar with this theology and it is anything but Christian. He is one of the last people anyone should listen to on theology or anything else, but I can see why his position would be attractive to people who listen to and hold anti-American views like yours.

    Yet you have no problem espousing liberal, Communistic/Marxist values as if you are actually holding to a more Christian position than we are. You are a hypocrite. You promote Social Justice, but Social justice is exactly the mixing of Christian actions and worldliness. You would gladly welcome someone like Bernie Sanders and his socialist/communist agenda in the name of Social Justice.

    Sorry, but you are totally dishonest about all of this. If you were as unpolitical as you claim to be you would not be so heavily involved in these forums defending socialist/Marxist/anti-American values.

    If those guys are so offended that they are paying less than they think they should pay in taxes, they could open up their checkbooks and write a check to the US Treasury and remedy that problem.

    Bernie has made it clear that he intends to raise taxes on the middle class, as well. So it is not just going to be a tax on the wealthy. It might start with the wealthy, but they will tax the middle class as well.

    It's allow about stealing money that was made legally and honestly by a group of Communists/Socialists. That is who YOU are supporting.

    That's ridiculous. Most people pay the tax they owe. I'm not sure about Trump.

    The first covenant was between God and Israel ONLY. It has been completely replaced by the second covenant in Christ's blood. The first was a covenant which depended on obeying the law. The second, given that obeying the law is impossible, was a covenant of grace and faith. It gave everyone, Jews and Gentiles alike, freedom from legalism and an opportunity to regain our relationship with God through Jesus.

    I have never said "a Republican can't be a Christian." That's the bottom line. I've heard that said about Democrats 3 times to my face and it is repeated many times here.

    The big theft was by the rich versus everybody else. Tax laws and other laws have been set up to accomplish that and they have resulted in a vast
    difference between the rich and everyone else in America. The minimum wage sits at $7.25 and hasn't been changed in 10 years. In real terms it hasn't changed in 50 years.

    Josef Stalin was once a hip, intellectual, atheist, Democrat Socialist, that led protests against the rich & powerful, rose to power, promising equality, then took over private industry, leading to mass poverty & famine, killed 20 million of his own people.

    People keep trying to talk sense to you but you continue to deny it. No one would waste their time on you if they weren’t trying to help you. There is NO way a Christian can embrace the platform of the DNC. End of story.

    Here’s a little factoid for you, & you can tell me which of the moronic socialists that are currently running for prez might measure up to this snake oil salesman? The best have already come & gone, you had a shot with Obama but he was too much of a party animal, & too stupid to carry it off. The rest of the pack are complete losers.

    That's because illegal immigrants have lowered wages for everyone, even engineers. You should build a big wall around your island of white privilege because when the Dems get done millions of people will attack you for food after the money collapses due to debt and too many people. Your neighborhood will be like London with ten million people and a sewer system for two and a half million people. Stock up on guns and ammo before the Dems take them away from you. Remember the churches will help you destroy the USA so at least you won't have to contend with evangelicals anymore.

    Stalin is a hero along with Che and Fidel at Indiana University in Bloomington.

    Bernie says that a communist party leader can have three mansions and three million dollars and it's not a scam.

    That is a red herring. I did not accuse you of saying that Republicans could not be Christians. I said that you condemn Christians for being in the military while you enjoy the freedoms paid for by their blood. I am simply pointing to your utter hypocrisy in that.

    I am also talking about your acceptance of Communist/Socialist/Marxist values, which are anti-American. You cannot be a modern Democrat and be a loyal American due to the fact that the modern Democrat party is at its core anti-American.

    Theft???? You want to talk about theft????
    Rich Democrats want to increase the income tax to 70-90% (for the rest of us in the middle class) while they give a goodie bag of free stuff like Social Security, welfare, Food Stamps, free health care, free housing, and free education to illegal aliens. They want to tax the stuffing out of us and give everything away to those who are not even American citizens. THAT is theft. They want you to pay your bills on 30% or less of what you earn. Pay your mortgage, your car payment, your car insurance, life insurance, home owner's insurance, your property taxes, buy groceries, pay your utility bill, save up for retirement all on $3 out of every $10 of what you earn.

    THAT is theft. The Democrats want to take everything from us and put us in a Socialist economy. Take our freedoms, our guns, our health care, everything and give us what they have in Venezuela. Socialism is theft. The part of theft, the party of slavery, the party of tyrants is the Democrat party. And that's YOUR party.

    The point is that people like you who want higher taxes should lead by example. If you want higher taxes, let's see you pull out YOUR checkbook and voluntarily pay more to the US government. Until you do, you have nothing credible or valid to say.

    Trump not only paid his taxes, Trump is not taking a salary for being president. Every quarter he donates his salary to a charity. Obama never did that.

    Obama was a graduate of Columbia and Harvard Law School. He taught Law at the University of Chicago. By contrast, Trump attended Fordham for two years and then got a BA in Business from the U of Penn. He likes to say he graduated from Wharton but most people who say that mean they got an MBA from Wharton. I know a guy who did that.

    Stalin was a COMMUNIST. There is a huge difference between that and a Socialist Democrat. Why do you keep repeating the l.ie that the Democrats are communists? Trump is illegally making much more money off his presidency than his salary, tens of millions of $.

    Wages and salaries have been lowered by the inequality created by Republican policies. It's making the middle class go away.

    I haven't heard that but I'd say it's true. Putin, Kim Jong Un or Xi can anything they want.

    Oh, we had 8 years of no jobs and no raises under Obama, which you probably liked because you want cheap labor and illegal votes for the Bernie scam.
