(156 posts)Pharisees condemned by Christ in the same NT. They predictably and without a second thought can pull any verse out, define and translate its meaning to suit them while ignoring 100s of other contradictory and incriminating text. One of the many reasons Ive found too many bible invokers to be useless and their 66 or so confusing books to have originated from their fearful, ancient approach to the mysteries of inhabiting their and our world. That book cannot have been helpful revelations from an ordered, sensible deity. Ive concluded that I must look elsewhere if my proclivities are to make one connection with some god that loves and understands me.

41 Then he will say to those on his left, Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me. 44 They also will answer, Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you? 45 He will reply, Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.
right back at the klansman called AG sessions.

For sure I do not go by all that man written stuff. It is just a reminder to those who quote the Bible,just one verse we can show that if you accept one part because it suits what you want to do,others can quote Scripture that proves you wrong.

AG Session is an idiot! And if ANYONE should know what his job is as AG it should be the AG.
1. HE IS NOT THE PRESIDENTS ATTORNEY!
2. He is the American Citizen (The Peoples) attorney
3. He was not given the job to preach scripture to the people.
4. He needs to respect the established relationship of church an state as it is spelled out in the First Amendment.
The first amendment to the US Constitution states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" The two parts, known as the "establishment clause" and the "free exercise clause" respectively, form the textual basis for the Supreme Court's interpretations
5. Finally he needs to resign if he can understand the simple principle.
Don't you just love these GOP folks who make the Second Amendment say more that it does and ignore the clear First Amendment. Both to make their personal / religious beliefs have the force of law. Falsely bending both 1 & 2 for delusional believes of a few. In stark contrast to the realistic views of the majority.

First they fight abortion, birth control is next,
Then comes sex if youre not married, finally, out goes sex!
Put the prayers back in the schools, install "parochiaid,"
Allow for corporal punishment, and then you got it made!
Chorus: Were going back, back to the good ole days
When men were really men and women knew their place
Back, back a couple of centuries
And welcome back the days of the theocracy!
2. The family is so holy, there must be no divorce
And if a wife is not content, she must adjust, of course
And if hes forced to beat her, its all for her own good
She must know what her limits are, as any woman should.,
(chorus)
3. The next to go is daycare,
its all a commie plot!
What could be more fulfilling than a child, wanted or not?
A womans world is housework, God wanted it that way
A salaried job degrades her since she never works for pay
(chorus)
4. They teach us womens lot is "love honor and obey"
And while their crusty notions seem like jokes to us today,
Theyre sitting in the Capitol, theyre voting on our lives
If we dont stop them soon, our freedom will not long survive!
Alt chorus:
No going back, back to the bad ole days...
When men were really masters and women were their slaves
let's go ahead, ahead for future centuries,
And build a world thats based on true democracy
And build a world thats based on true equality!
Ah person!

This same verse is applicable to Sessions' cult leader, and his quislings.

(2,577 posts)You need to read just a WEE bit further to get the context of what ol' Paul is saying ... like verses 9 and 10:
9) The commandments... are summed up in this word, Love your neighbor as yourself.
10) Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law.
So love is the fulfilling of the law ....
That being said, Jeff, THIS IS NOT A THEOCRACY. We are kinda supposed to follow this other document, the Constitution, which is pretty darn clear about church and state being separate.

(3 posts)Can't believe you guys are not necessarily falling for a trick but you are adding to the voices against Sessions which will give Trump a reason to fire him which in turn allows him to install a new AG which can affect Mueller, yes what he said was stupid but when you join the crowd against him don't get mad when Trump fires him using this as an excuse and you are left standing there like WTF just happened.
