Well, when the majority religion of the region claims its founder translated some Dead Sea scrolls into an account of Abraham - and then the Rosetta Stone is found, showing those same scrolls is a partial copy of the Book of the Dead - you can expect other significant logical disconnects at a fundamental level.Who do voters say is a moral leader among the 2024 presidential candidates?
Most Americans say it is the president’s responsibility to provide moral leadership to the people they represent

That is sadly the lesser component of the problem.
Even the core texts are extreme. The law of Moses all the GOP know by heart is the one about men laying with men. They talk a lot less about the laws concerning the sale of your 12 year old daughter. Both the buyer and seller are protected. If for some reason the buyer finds the product not to his liking, he can return it for a refund. But he can't expect to get a total refund because like a new car, her resale value goes down as soon as you drive it off the lot, so to speak. So they are both protected by these laws.
I should have said New Testament. Aiui it supersedes all that bronze-age strict stuff.
… because his one* superpower was to play the base like a violin from Cremona
what is the benefit of working together with avowed fascists?Our 2 political parties are so extreme anymore. Politicians only vote with their party. I feel nothing will get better till both parties realize there is an isle between them, and venture into it and actually try to problem solve. Until then, I got ladies to grow, wake me when parties start working together and actually start doing what we elected them to do.
I just said, I have ladies to grow.

If you watch politicians vote on anything, they vote with their party. Nothing is gonna get fixed if they dont start working together to actually try to fix something. Until the right quits screaming hang hunter, while the left is screaming hang Trump.... The truth is almost never white or black, it's almost always in a shade of Grey between the two. If the 2 parties stay on only their side of the isle, how are they trying to help anyone? I do find it funny how a comment such as the one I made is so abrasive to you that you go to the extent of looking up how many times I've posted on a forum I just found maybe 2 weeks ago lmao. If you would like to argue more on how my comment of "both parties need to come to the middle and work together" makes you so upset, you will have you will have to do it with someone else cause I have better things to do. 74,579 posts..... wow, I bet you have a huge penis!

It’s not about abrasion. It speaks to your motives. You barely got your toes wet in this forum and decided to flush a cherry bomb down the local plumbing.
Oh cr
Oh crap.... I thought you were coming at me bro! I apologize for that! No cherry bomb was meant by what I said lol. I was just meaning to say they should work together. And I believe they should work together on everything. If you listen to the left, the right just wants to give my hard earned money to their rich buddies, and the right scream the left wants to give my money to people who refuse to work out in Cali (these are not my words just trying to throw an example that I've heard). I live in a conservative state, i just want the best for the people of this country. The truth is the working clasd has too much burden on them. I personally think the government intrudes into our personal lives..... an example is the spill proof gas caps now days! I swear I never spilled a drop of gas till those dang things came out lol. But your examples in your last text are wonderful examples of things that need addressed but I feel won't get fixed if we are just voting party lines. If one party says something, the other just goes the other way now days. Hope that clarified my comment lol.
I really don't understand why I'm getting blasted for saying that I wish parties would work together. I never pointed to either side as being worse or better than the other. I personally vote for who I think is the better choice, and not by party. I'm just saying let's work together to get things fixed cause it's not working the way it's going.....@olerootie , when you say:
"Politicians only vote with their party."
You understand that is not true, right?
When you say "Until the right quits screaming hang hunter, while the left is screaming hang Trump...." can you provide an explanation on why you believe these are the same or even remotely similar? One is a former President, that many in his former cabinet say openly that he is a danger to democracy; the other is not even a politician. Just because someone is screaming something doesn't mean that it has any actual relevance or meaning.

Former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper agreed with an interviewer that President Trump posed “a threat to democracy.” Other former administration officials have expressed similar concerns.www.nytimes.com
From where I sit, it appears that one party is fighting for the majority of citizens they represent, while the other fights to protect the privilege for just a few.
Not sure why you think you are getting blasted? I am simply showing what is not accurate in what was stated, and asking for further explanation of your thoughts. That's kind of how this all works, political dialogue....
if I may …
