Yeah...you really called Trump out about his bible selling. You said that "it has a really bad smell"...and then you followed that up by asserting that Biden is even worse than Trump in the "indiscretion" department. You really roasted Trump in that one...

So an eye for an eye and a crotch for a crotch is fair?

What is "reasonable gun control"? We have thousands of gun laws, they aren't enforced. Criminals don't obey gun laws, or most other laws, that's why they are criminals. Most gun laws only serve to make it difficult for law abiding citizens to get them. We don't have hammer laws, or knife laws, or screwdriver laws, or fist laws, yet more people are killed by these than guns. Enforce the laws we have and punish the criminals that break them, this isn't happening.
And assuming you're referring to Trump "who waves the bible at every opportunity", seems a bit of an exaggeration. How about Joe Biden, the "devout Catholic"? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world...ds/ar-BB1k6whC

We have another "bible scholar" here.
No, friend...Jesus said a lot more than you state here. He also said that "when you feed and clothe the unfortunates of the world...you are also feeding and clothing me". And that, "when you refuse to feed and clothe the unfortunates of the world, you are also rejecting me".
And, "reasonable gun control" means background checks and gun safety training for all gun buyers...something that the NRA and the republicans have been consistently against. Guns shouldn't be openly sold in private sales the way secondhand goods are sold in flea markets.

Trump selling Bibles....GREAT IDEA!
The people buying them are getting a known return for thier free choice to donate $60 to the man they support. Free will at work.
All presidents swera on a Bible, all of Congrees, the SC, statewide elected officials.
Witnesses in court......the Bible is a very accepted part of our government.
In God We Trust is on our money, we have unalienable rights under GOD, not allah, not buddah.
The only hypocrisy here is thinking his is an issue with some nany REAL issues facing us today and BOTH candidates have comparable records in office to look at.

You are the one that doesn't understand the quote.
It does not mean "do not defend yourself" even though some people say that.
What He meant by that was that you should not become your enemy.
If someone slaps your face, you should not slap him back.
If someone burns down your house, you should not burn down his house.
If someone shoots at you, you should not go after him and kill him.
If someone calls you stupid, you should not call him stupid back.
That does not mean Christians should become doormats to evil and not defend themselves. I've never heard any religious authority interpret it that way.
There are even debates within Christianity about which are "just wars". If a war can be just, obviously, so is defending yourself.

I called both like I see them.
I'm no Trump fan as a person or businessman. I agree with him on many policy issues but not all. But IMO Biden (or whoever is really running the show these days) is contemptable on every level.

Trump is no different then any other giant-ass rich fuck out there.
Except he enjoys ZERO cover from the media and the elites...unlike most of the rest who are master-fellators of whatever/whoever will provide them such cover.
When it comes to personal lives, Biden is no different from Trump, and Trump is no different from Biden. Except one is a "protected class" because those in charge consider him useful at the moment.

Is that why so many illegals are named Jesus? I guess the illegals left no stone unturned in getting free benefits by naming their children Jesus. Smart play lol.

Well, Trump's family never got millions from China.
Trump grabbed a pussy, but there were so many fingerprints on it no one could for sure any were his.

It was lost.
Rumor has it that it is in a box in someone's garage, next to a Corvette, but may have been destroyed by one of a series of prgressively worse kitchen fires over the years.

Funny. How do your “religious authorities” interpret Jesus’s comment that we should “turn the other cheek” when someone slaps our face? Does that sound like “self-defense” to you? Why didn’t Jesus say “don’t slap him back”, instead of telling us to “turn the other cheek”?
Stick to what you know, classhandicapper. You are clearly out of your depth when you debate religious matters.
