I just hope that you can understand that my beliefs don't come from hatred. As I know yours does not come from disdain of me.

When you say you value the world more, what are your values based on? Keeping the world healthy? Do your values change often?

Mo-me119, most level headed individuals like him that I've talked with adhere more towards the Golden rule. Do unto others as you would have done to you. I may not hold that as the moral sovereign of the world, but it is still, at the very least, a quite respectable ideal.

He has defended his view very admirably, unlike many Christians and non-believers that I've witnessed. This was a very good conversation.

I also don't have any values in politics. Having value in politics like, the state should have more power will lead to you making the wrong choice just because it full fills your world view. The thing I hate most about American Politics is how it has become a game of Us and Them, Red vs Blue. Both sides are guilty of this. You refuse to listen to arguments that make sense because your values are different and because they are Blue, or wha ever tribal name you give them. TL;DR, I hate the modern Tribalism that is politics

@Raging Smurf Yeah definitely, just curious about the values changing

Most definitely. I may conservative, but I find tribalism of a political nature to be insufferable

Are guys referring to identify politics or is that different from tribalism?

I don't put any labels on myself because that would just make possible friends into emeys

Yes, it's frustrating and often leads people to ignore or downplay the significant downfalls of their preferred candidate

Half of Bidens are trumps votes were because They didn't want the over side in power

@DeButcher i would say they are different but similar

I don't doubt that there were a large amount of votes that were cast out of near animalistic hatred of the Party and their "I'll" or whatever the hell they call their rivals.

*Ilk*

Well gentleman, this was a sound investment of my time, but I must be off. Dinner awaits. Farewell.

I will love You, O Lord , my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord , who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies.
Psalms 18:1‭-‬3 NKJV

I wholly believe God is the only one deserving of praise and glory.

Yup

Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones.
Proverbs 3:7‭-‬8 NKJV

Any prayer requests tonight?

I think I am missing something within those memes

Are they mad that they called someone father?

Referencing God as the Father. And the militant atheist takes offense, while the agnostic looks on in concern

Ah

Capitalization of Father clued me in.

Its the first word of the sentence though so 🤷

You're not wrong.

Is everything going ok?

It is well. The last few years of not been "good" in the normal sense of the word. But, my faith is strong, my resolve unquenched.

I remembered the first time I dropped into this part of the server, fully expecting a bunch of keyboard warriors shit talking each other, with no coherency to be. I'm glad that I was pleasantly surprised. The talks here have helped me make my opinions known and I like to think I have helped others who may have been struggling.

Thats good
