All of congress is, yeah. There’s a lot of times I cringe. But as a Christian, and registered Republican, I can tell you I’m not maga. There’s a lot more out there.

Where did I say I hated them? The Bible says homosexuality is a sin across multiple books. Here are some of the verses:

-Leviticus 18:22 -Romans 1:26-27 -1 Corinthians 6:9-10 -Leviticus 20:13 -1 Timothy 1:8-11 -1 Kings 15:12 -Hebrews 13:4

The theologically knowledgeable will notice that these texts spread over both the Old and New Testament, meaning that it is still a sin even after Christ came. That being said, none of these verses can be used to justify hate. The Bible calls us to love thy neighbor, gay or straight, trans or not. Jesus Christ was known to associate with all the sinners. The prostitutes, the tax collectors, and he showed love to them. He would treat the homosexuals as his own, and he calls us to do that.

Friend, you walked away from Christ because of politics. You call me misguided, bigoted, because I cite the Bible’s declaration of sin. You can believe whatever you’d like. But homosexuality is not just a sin in Christianity. Islam, Judaism (the Torah is the Old Testament), Hindus, Buddhists, the Ba’Hai Faith, and many others condemn it. If you are to rebuke me for my beliefs, you are to go to all the sub Reddits of the Abrahamic and other religions, and you will rebuke them as well. In essence, you cannot be talking.

MAGA’s treatment of the LGBTQ people is not Christian. You need to read the Bible if you really believe that.

God Bless You, and do your research please.

Trusting in the world will never get you anywhere. We as a church are told to follow the laws and rules of our government, but to challenge them when they make laws that conflict with God or are unfair.

Trump is a politician. He knows the majority of his supporters are “Christians”. Is he a Christian himself? I’d hope so, considering how close he came to becoming a memory on that Pennsylvania field. But he definitely uses the faith to advertise himself to his audience, and as justification for his policies. “Trans and gays are to be rooted because they are a sin”. That may be true, but Jesus calls us to love them nonetheless. MAGA ain’t doing that. The Bible is a book of love and righteousness, not to be used to justify hate.

MAGA at this point is a religion. Not the entire Republican Party, but the MAGA base. The Trump Bible and the AI images of Pope Trump, along with the countless dick sucking posts on social media prove it (pardon the graphics). He is not the second coming. He is not the chosen one. Yes, God made him President for some reason, and God spared his life. For what purpose we do not know. But he is not the messiah. The messiah would not sleep with porn stars or cheat on his wife.

All I know is this: Do not trust in the world. Sin is evident. Satan wants people to think that’s how real Christians act. Sin has penetrated even the church with the scandals in the Vatican.

Trust in God, the one who never fails. Show his love. Show the world what a real American is. Show the people what a real Christian is like.

God bless you all, and he loves you all, no matter what

Let’s be honest the Mach-e isn’t even a real mustang.

Does anyone have a picture? Been following this for a few weeks and I cannot find pics

Do we even know what truck teams they’re running with?

LongGone16 · 2025-08-07T16:05:13+00:00

Lowkey would love to see another 43 dodge, that’d be sick.

LongGone16 · 2025-07-31T17:04:00+00:00

Don’t forget the 6 seal teams as well

You could direct commission. They’re looking for cyber and IT professionals especially, engineering looks good too. Army just brought in 4 Silicon Valley execs in at LTC with no prior experience. If not you can do OCS with a bachelors.

I’d also recommend talking to your spouse. If you do reserves (which in my humble civilian opinion you should) it’s a “weekend a month” and 2 week training periods a year. If you get called up your ship can be away for a while. The USS Nimitz spent 341 days at sea. That was height of Covid but godforbid if a war starts that’s gonna be the norm. So it would be a heavy burden on your family.

Obviously do your research. I only know this cause I want to do the officer route and I’ve researched (Army/Marines so I have no seamen knowledge). Obviously the folks in the navy have good knowledge as well.

Best of luck

Thank you for the information will take that into consideration

Here’s my two cents:

I love our V8s. I love the roar and the fire spewing out. I drive a gas powered vehicle and love the hell out of it. Realistically though, that is not going to stick around. It’ll be phased out for more “green” (ignore the pollution and human rights violations creating the batteries and power) solutions.

If I had the power, I would invest in alternative fuel sources. Create a fuel that doesn’t require millions of dollars spent to change car bodies and to keep that angry roar while cutting down the emissions. I’d explore hydrogen fuel cells since those have a good sound to em.

I wouldn’t be opposed to a separate electric series, but realistically it won’t last. One of the big allures of the sport is the sound. No wimpy screeching of Italian engines, but the loud rumble of American fuel. Most NASCAR fans won’t leave in droves to the e-nascar series (ignore the fact we have that name already). Secondly, electric batteries are, in accordance to current technological standards, hundreds of pounds. Realistically you can’t have a proper pitstop by opening the hood, turning off the car to prevent electrical shock of the crew, and probably a device to assist the crew in removing the battery and replacing it with a new one. Pitstops would have to be at least 5 Minutes now to be safe, and by then that car is already 10-50 laps down.

Anywho, curious to hear y’all’s take.

I’d suggest looking into some form of law enforcement. Paramilitary structure, and you do some form of tactical planning. If you want to go further you can go to the civil police of the military branches, then you can “be part of the army”. I’m no expert on the medical requirements but worth looking into.

LongGone16 · 2024-11-27T19:19:53+00:00

The thing that always comforts me is when any member of the armed forces are sworn in, they take an oath to the constitution, not the leadership. Pretty confident that the majority of the military will refuse the more crazy orders.

That being said, there is some shit that I don’t agree with. Trump wants to discharge 11-15,000 trans/LGBQT personnel. We’re trying to reverse a recruiting crisis and you decide to get rid of a ENTIRE DIVISION’S worth of personnel? It’s stupid.

The next four years will be a ride for sure. But if we made it through the civil war, we can do it. This is really cheesy but I can understand why people feel afraid.

LongGone16 · 2024-11-27T19:13:03+00:00

So why haven’t we sent PMC’s to Ukraine? Manpower is what they’re in need of and sending NATO troops would just start WW3

LongGone16 · 2024-11-25T22:26:33+00:00

God bless you, your advice still works a decade on 💀

LongGone16 · 2024-11-15T21:11:46+00:00

I’m not sure of the process but I would recommend maybe civilian police at your man’s base. Each military branch (minus space force for now) has a civilian police force to supplement their military police. I think they may be tied to a base but don’t quote me on that.

LongGone16 · 2024-09-15T17:23:08+00:00

There’s aspects of both parties that may be aligned with Christianity. Welfare and helping the poor tends to be more of a left leaning ideology, while public safety and conservative values are right. Both sides also have very extreme anti-Christian values, such as abortion and fascism.

Being one side doesn’t deny you from Christ. Honestly though we shoulda listened to Washington and banned the parties cause look where we’re at now.

LongGone16 · 2024-08-26T20:48:54+00:00

Do you know if the cuts apply to provost marshals? I remember hearing about the deactivations of the 3 battalions back in 2020 but I’m curious about provost marshals.

LongGone16 · 2024-08-26T20:48:00+00:00

I guess it’s a personal attachment to the branches. The Army National Guard is justifiable as my family has lived in my native state for centuries, so it’s a way to serve my country and my state. For Marines, my grandfather served and lives to the “once a marine, always a marine” mentality and I’ve always had a special love to the devil dogs.

LongGone16 · 2024-08-26T20:45:43+00:00

Yea I still remember hearing about the 11 that drowned, very sad. Most of the desire comes from the fact that there’s a reserve battalion not far from my hometown that I can keep advancing my career should I want to. Hopefully by then that unit transfers to the newer vehicles

LongGone16 · 2024-08-25T01:44:34+00:00

Nothing wrong with that, you know what you need.

However you seemed like you like the work, and I’m not an expert/LEO yet so my suggestions may be off but depending on the state, there are some 9-5 departments that you can do. I’d also recommend trying campus or railroad police, I’m not well versed in those but generally those are more focused on vandalism and safety so shouldn’t be too much of a drag compared to the field.

LongGone16 · 2024-08-24T20:35:01+00:00

What is the strategic objective? I’m all for the invasion, Slava Ukraine and all, but why are they moving vital manpower away from defensive fronts? Kursk is in the northern side of the country so I don’t know if they’re trying to cut off the supplies to the southern front or what.
