Freedom is self governance, as a basic concept. There would be nothing wrong with that were we created fit to govern.

2019-08-29 01:23:36 UTC  

But we were not

i actually enjoy, in a way, being surrounded by liberals.

my town: overtly liberal anywhere within a 5-mile radius of downtown(where i spend 90% of my time)
my family: conservatism is heresy
jew i live with: ultra-progressive
my job: full of millenial and genz who just repeat liberal talking points

i feel like a warrior. i debate anyone who i think won't lose their mind, and get off on it. when i can't debate peacefully, i drop subtle hints and see if people pick up on them. otherwise, i practice self-control.

because of this, i get tons of practice arguing certain ideas, and i think im better for it. ive been doing this for a while now.

Persecution is good for the spirit

2019-08-29 01:24:16 UTC  

It breeds strong faith

2019-08-29 01:24:29 UTC  

It breaks the weak though

2019-08-29 01:24:39 UTC  

Good.

2019-08-29 01:24:42 UTC  

Most of the time anyway.

2019-08-29 01:26:46 UTC  

I was weak, and it broke me for a short bit of time

2019-08-29 01:26:54 UTC  

I came back stronger though.

2019-08-29 01:29:43 UTC  

Still, persecution is only good for people who rise to some amount of virtue beforehand. For the confused people today, it will only cause more people to deconvert and never look back. Then again, we're living in a time of great tribulation, so maybe that's in accordance to God's justice.

2019-08-29 01:30:21 UTC  

We should still show 'some' mercy though, not much.

2019-08-29 01:48:17 UTC  

but is God conservative?

2019-08-29 01:49:24 UTC  

God is beyond any ideology

2019-08-29 01:54:05 UTC  

does serving God mean being conservative?

2019-08-29 01:54:31 UTC  

*as its defined in the modern world

2019-08-29 01:55:39 UTC  

Tough question

2019-08-29 01:55:54 UTC  

Modern world say yes

2019-08-29 01:56:26 UTC  

But we shouldn't allow ourselves to be considered conservative, but as Christians

2019-08-29 01:56:34 UTC  

God is true conservative. He makes the Law and never changes it

2019-08-29 01:57:15 UTC  

Hmmm

2019-08-29 01:57:19 UTC  

Interesting

2019-08-29 02:08:05 UTC  

@ninjacats I live near Chicago

2019-08-29 02:08:51 UTC  

So I know what it's like for most people to be ultra liberal

2019-08-29 03:20:41 UTC  

@pinkfloydfan123 im not all that far from Chicago myself, relatively speaking. my family is from Chicago, if that says anything, which i think it does lol

Ok here’s a weird but serious religious question

2019-08-29 06:38:54 UTC  

Let’s say your married

2019-08-29 06:38:56 UTC  

And then you die

2019-08-29 06:39:03 UTC  

But you lived a good life and go to heaven

2019-08-29 06:39:09 UTC  

But your wife remarries

2019-08-29 06:39:17 UTC  

And lives a good life and dies and goes to heaven

2019-08-29 06:39:31 UTC  

Is it you, your wife, and the third guy?

2019-08-29 06:39:38 UTC  

All chillin awkwardly in heaven?

2019-08-29 06:39:56 UTC  

Or do you not get to spend eternity with her?

2019-08-29 06:40:05 UTC  

Hmm

2019-08-29 06:40:21 UTC  

Y'all probably chillin

2019-08-29 06:40:32 UTC  

But in a way isn’t that a hell

2019-08-29 06:40:46 UTC  

No

2019-08-29 06:40:55 UTC  

Because being in heaven comes with some perks

2019-08-29 06:40:57 UTC  

There is no marriage in heaven, it's an earthly state. In heaven and perfection you are in perfect union with Christ
