Thank yourself as one who rationalizes the hate and blinds himself to the evil.

We have all been raised to hate evil. The media gods who are omnipresent both left and right make their livlihoods casting their opposites as not only wrong, but evil. Hence the sheep on both sides hate the "evil" of the other side. It's quite predictable.

Per 11:02. Well stated 👌🏽

DL you're either incredibly naive and gullible or incredibly disingenuous. Thanks for nothing.

I’m not an evangelical and I’m in no cult. But I know a man cannot have a baby. I know that only citizens of the USA should vote. I know that leaving expensive and high level equipment in Afghanistan only enhanced our enemies’ armed forces. None of those things happened when President Trump was president. Also, I know I’m not blind to how biased the media is. Thanks for trying to force one sided views down our throats. Most of us are too smart to fall for that.

From the country's founding until only about 60 years ago, very few individuals hated "evangelicals" or any garden variety Christians. The deliberately engineered dilution of America through "multiculturalism" is reaching its apex, and yes - white Christians will become extinct unless they learn to hate back their enemies like their ancestors did.

If you go to the AmwayGlobal website, you can read their statement that Amway is not a pyramid scheme.

Just because you say it, does not make it so.

Very well-reasoned critique of the left. Since they can't make any meaningful criticisms of the article, 11:02 AM, 11:39 AM and 1:50 PM attack Gardner's character, a man they have never met and whose only sin is criticizing their political tribe. And, they expect us to ignore that their comments are pure unadulterated hate they spit towards everyone who is not useful to their political aims. Not a single critique of Gardner's argument.

Every Saturday afternoon, or Sunday morning, I come to this website to see what Kingfish has for us to dig into. Usually, he will have an article posted by Mr. Gardner.

Without fail, some pointy headed liberal will trash the article. They will accuse the writer of disseminating hate, racism, dog whistles, all manner of things that I didn't see in the same article they read. I just don't see it.

So, in defense of Mr. Gardner, I will say this, Mr. Gardner is responsible for what he writes, no doubt about it, he is responsible for what he writes.

Mr. Gardner, is not responsible for how you may interpret that which he writes. The problem isn't what's being written, the problem is the interpretation of what is written.

2:27 and 4:48 use reason which is seldom welcomed by the left. Ad hominem is more to their preference.

lol @cholly the same stable genius who thinks a Foxconn factory is a chinese slave labor camp.

evangelicals are weirdos but its not because of Trump. it is because of the nonsense like speaking tongues and their ignorant takes on every subject because most of them lack education and suffer extreme Dunning-Kruger syndrome.

@7:51 Stop it! @cholly has actually spoken with the former slaves who made your iPhone. Have you?

It's very simple. I absolutely think evangelicals have every right to their religious beliefs. They do not however get to impose them on the rest of the population. They can try to raise their children in their faith and beliefs through love and teaching. They can supervised and protect their children.
The notion that those who do not share their faith and political views are Marxists is ridiculous and insulting. We see that one religion controlling government has resulted in oppression throughout history and offer all Iran as the perfect example of what happens when ,even in a country with vicious,greedy leadership, the dominance of clergy quickly becomes far MORE vicious. We all know too that the absence the moral and legal imperative that it's the right of any human to make his or her own personal decisions as long as he or she doesn't harm others is the only thing that guarantees freedom.
Not all of depend on a preacher or politician or the town crier to tell us what to think. The ultimate freedom is the ability to decide for yourself and your children until those children ( as long as you don't abuse or neglect them) are 18.
We can also worship God and determine the fate of our own soul without the help of celebrity preachers who have enriched themselves. And, we think it's remarkable for a man or woman of God to follow anyone who has been unrepentant sinner and scammer (see Trump University case) and who brags that Putin and Jong Un and Xi and now even the Taliban " love" him. These are men incapable of love but clearly capable of cruelty.
So DL should explain THAT. And, while he's at explain try to learn finance and economics so he'll know that Federal Reserve determines the value of money worldwide and part of an international reserve system BECAUSE the DOLLAR determines the value of all other money. And you can bet on the fact that every dictator and every billionaire would LOVE going back to the gold standard .Until Trump or DL demonstrate that they have a clue about how to lead a country or preserve my right to make my own decisions, I will continue to find them dangerous. And, yeah Trump like Biden is too damn old. JD is too damaged by his childhood and changes with the wind in his desperation for love and approval. I don't think Harris or Walz are great choices, but the GOP has become so chaotic, and weird that I have no choice. Won't matter in MS how I vote . Indeed, the GOP here doesn't want us to have a say in anything with a vote. Just like with marijuana , they wouldn't bring up abortion for a vote. State's rights is no rights when a minority can impose their will on the majority on any issue. Our legislature doesn't have the balls to give us a vote on any issue as it dilutes their power.

"They do not however get to impose them on the rest of the population." Well, "Thou shalt not murder" is part of the Ten Commandments. I wouldn't want to impose that belief on the rest of society. Nope.

What a weird opinion.

You have confused the evangelicals with the Pentecostals, and you call others ignorant?

@11:59 There are different sub-cultures of all sects of every religion. Same goes with Jews and Muslims. Not every evangelical is Pentecostal but all Pentecostals are evangelical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelicalism. As a transdenominational coalition, evangelicals can be found in nearly every Protestant denomination and tradition, particularly within the Reformed (Continental Reformed, Anglicanism, Presbyterian, Congregational), Plymouth Brethren, Baptist, Methodist (Wesleyan–Arminian), Lutheran, Moravian, Free Church, Mennonite, Quaker, Pentecostal/charismatic and non-denominational churches

"Still, most factories dedicated to assembling the iPhone remain in China. The largest one, operated by manufacturing partner Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn), is located in Zhengzhou and employs over 300,000 workers."

Like a good liberal, you enjoy lies to make your point. I never said " Foxconn factory is a chinese slave labor camp." I did say many iPhones are assembled in China. Yes, I do believe totalitarian Marxist regimes enslave people. You neo-Marxists love to lie.

Very weird and a bit incoherent.

4:48 and 6:44 both stated what I've wondered all along about people who hate this man's columns. Thanks for that.

@cholly: it is you who are the liar. Here is exactly what you said copied from your comment Reminds me of how the woke folk caturwhawl about how terrible things are in the US while applauding Apple for using Chinese slave labor for the iphones. Two lies here. First is that “woke folk” as you call them, applaud Apple for using slave labor. Second

@cholly: the lies you told are actually worse than the lie you are telling now (about what you said) Reminds me of how the woke folk caturwhawl about how terrible things are in the US while applauding Apple for using Chinese slave labor for the iphones.

Wikipedia is not an acceptable source. There are many doctrinal differences between oneness Pentecostals and evangelicals.

Both will say they have nothing to do with each other. I suggest you should study sound literature when it comes to knowing the differences, and Wikipedia is not sound literature.

@6:56 PM there are 356 referenced citations in that wiki. You need to at least try to provide your own citation to discredit at least one point made. See, this is what I was taking about. A complete lack of education and willful ignorance. You people don’t even understand your own religious beliefs or how to do basic research. In Wikipedia the citation and reference list is at the bottom of the page.

Come on KF (9:42), that’s a fifth grade argument. It also says not to commit adultery! And to praise the one god! Smarten up.

Sounds like you now agree with cholly. That is, unless you think the the Peoples Republic of China is the land of the free.

Try citing Wikipedia in an academic setting and see how well that works for you.

KF, murder is against the LAW. Even back then, when there was no science to better human condition, burning witches at the stake wasn't a murder. Beheading adulterous wives wasn't against the law. Please don't pretend that religion hasn't been interpreted to justify oppression in societies throughout history. Religion is the creation of man, Jesus was a teacher of how to live to be pleasing in the eyes of God and warned of " false prophets". Jesus didn't ask for money to support himself or his followers, he washed feet and embraced the poorest in his society. He didn't ride fine horses or have his own chariot!

@8:03 once again. The sources and citations are listed. look you can be pedantic and wrong. Either way you are wrong.

Why does this blog attract the dumbest of smoothbrains?

@8:01 Slaves don’t get paid. Foxconn workers get paid. Cholly very specifically said iPhones are made by slave labor and then stated that claim is celebrated by cholly’s perceived political opponents. I pointed out that iPhones aren’t made in slave labor camps, unlike the cheap items sold at places like Harbor Freight, Dollar Tree, etc. These gulags are well documented. But they don’t make iPhones there. Also, Foxconn is building a factory in the USA. That was celebrated because the announcement was during the period between 2016-2020.

" Either way you are wrong."

That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. My opinion, which is as valuable as yours, says you're wrong.

You're just like every other hairless ape, with a keyboard, that thinks they can google a subject, and it makes them an expert. You know nothing about spiritual living.

You have an inflated opinion of yourself, and place too much faith in your academic learning. That makes you proud, arrogant, a false feeling of superiority. It takes humility to learn spiritual concepts.

Wikipedia is not an acceptable source. So, you are saying you have no source.

That may be one of Daniel’s most thought revoking ramblings yet.

“ It’s sad to see Americans divided so radically over politics.”

You can start to address this issue by taking a look in the mirror. This clown of a writer is the last person on earth who should unironically print that statement. This level of hypocrisy is something we just didn’t used to see, but idiots with no shame have left that decency far behind.

The post, at 6:44 PM, is addressed to you. The link below should belong to you, also.
