None of those cable news outlets are anything but BS propaganda machines. Just because they confirm your bias, left or right, doesn't mean that they are not.
On this we can agree.

Verses 12 through 27 are a parable told by Jesus as a teaching tool. Verse 27 is not Jesus telling his disciples what to do, it is the "certain nobleman" talking.
Nice try, though.

As for the Old Testament, it is the history of the Hebrews, not Christianity. The New Testament is the story of the birth, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ; as well as the travels, travails, and teachings of His disciples and the final prophesies of John.

Fox has long supported and profited from their political bomb throwers bringing in the ratings. Pirro made a conscious decision to go to the dark side solely to line her own pockets with cash. I wonder if she even believes in all her media rants.

Christians say they follow the New Testament. And at that, someone should really take a some white-out to Paul's scribbles. If he'd met a good woman, the world would be a much better place.

Based on the bold, you would agree that CNN leans "heavily left" correct?

One would hope not, she has a fairly impressive CV. But they put themselves in such an extremely one sided fishbowl and have such a high opinion of themselves that sometimes they wind up living the fantasy. Dark and unpleasant as it is.

Neither of the above is true for Christianity. One displays a gross misunderstanding of Christianity, the other is wrong theologically.

Christians are commanded to obey those in authority. There are limits of course, but that is a longer, off topic conversation. In general, it is untrue.

Well to be honest, I am not confused. I understand hypocrisy quite well. Just pointing out that others, you included, don't.

This is an incredible creation of false equivalency. Israel has tried over and again for peace, has traded land for peace (and never gotten it) and grants rights to Muslims that no Jew or Christian has in almost all Muslim countries.

They share an origin, but Islam is the only one trying to eradicate the other two.

Just the New Testament because that is what Christians follow, the New Covenant. The Old Testament is the history and foretelling of the Messiah, but Christians aren't bound by the Law, which is why Christians eat bacon and scallops, among other things

Don't quit your day job. That is part of a parable (look up the word if you don't understand it), not a commandment.

Major advertisers will abandon hosts until sales suffer.

You can say that for just about anyone on any MSM station. Most of them have CVs that are good or, in some cases, impressive. But every last one of them has a major ego - on all stations, and they all live in their echo chambers and fantasy - it's all dark and unpleasant.
