The day he decided to run for congress he was no longer a private citizen. Whether he acknowledges it or not, he represents every person in the district. What he thinks affects all of us.

He may believe G-d has a plan, but does he know what it is.

How does the Plan effect his vote?

He believes everyone will be saved by his sky god, therefore the Earth is a disposable resource until The Rapture occurs. How is this not dangerous to the public?

He's an agent of the State...the most dangerous threat to any of us.

Then again, most folks favorite religion is the State.

Maybe you should go live off the grid and send your messages by carrier pigeon if an organized society scares you so much.

Apparently, there are a few families that think they will be the 'one family' that is saved next time.

I'm a taxpayer. I have a right to say who we want to steal from and kill just as much as you, don't I?

Collectivism for noble goals has been a staple of government propaganda since the beginning of forced states.

If there is a "climate problem" only individuals can address it as they see fit, either individually or via consensual pact (not a fictional social contract).

I heard on the radio late this afternoon that Bloomberg said earlier this week that he thinks there is a better chance than not that Trump will get reelected.

I just found this:

Michael Bloomberg thinks there is a 55 percent chance Trump is re-elected - SFGate

Also, is God taking care of war or hunger? No. If we accept that God exists, which under no circumstance do we have to, then we also have to accept that he does not intervene in any meaningful way, for whatever reason.


You are absolutely right.....god does not intervene. He leaves it to man he created. And they have truly screwed up. Honestly, God should have just created all women.
