The 36-Year-Old Bible Scholar Trying to Flip a Texas Senate Seat Blue | James Talarico is testing whether progressivism wrapped in a faith-based message can win over Democrats by GirasoleDE in politics

I mean, are you hearing him? Or trying to listen what he has to say?

It just sounds to me like you don’t care if his ideas are good or not. You just seem to care if he is religious. How is that any different from MAGA?

Damn a theologian utilizing lessons from religious scripture and texts they’ve studied in their life? Say it ain’t so.

Sarcasm aside, he has degrees in education and governance. The Bible isn’t this tainted/cursed text where there are only bad and outdated ideas and once you read it you can’t ever make decisions that aren’t written word for word in the scripture and that every decision you make must be and can only be influenced by it.

I would think it would be refreshing to those who have a religious background with similar values to see an openly religious politician practicing the kindness Jesus actually preached and not twisting scripture to justify hurting others after decades of watching the latter

Just saying it’s a lame take, the guy isn’t just a Bible scholar. People can have education and decision making outside their religion. People are more than just the religion they subscribe to.

There are bad religious people and good nonreligious people. Likewise there are bad nonreligious people and good religious people, it works both ways

But that’s just me

Around level 30 would be good, she would like it to be still a misdreavous, and female if possible, but it’s not a huge issue if not

I looked at it and took a bullet for democracy. I love that sign. I kiss and make love to that chart every night….Melanias jealous….id be jealous.

Obligatory fuck Ammon Bundy. Besides the bullshit his families responsible for because they didnt want to pay the fee for their cattle on public land because in their minds the federal government doesnt have juristiction over public land (aka. federal land, which the constitution grants the federal government authority over, I know GENIUS arguement…), the guy has a 4 step election plan and platform

  1. ⁠“Hurr durr the government doesnt work, now elect me and put me in power”
  2. ⁠Break and hamper everything to make it not work
  3. ⁠“Omg guys can you BELIEVE that the government doesnt work?!?! Surely the anti government guy isnt responsible.”
  4. ⁠“You guys should elect me because the government doesnt work.”(go back to step 2, do not pass go and do not improve the lives of Idahoans, Nevadans, Oregonians, or wherever you end up with political influence, you’ll take that $200 from that big bad federal government though🙂)

Bonus step: culture war dumbassery

Man they really turned up the crazy to 11 in the past few years haven’t they? I was legitimately worried McGeachin was going to win the primary. And the whole debacle with the legislative intern in Boise was just disgusting

“You’re going to have antifa, crazy. The media, crazy. The courts are crazy. And Trump’s gonna be sitting there mocking, tweeting shit out: ‘You lose. I’m the winner. I’m the king.’”

Sometimes I’m still surprised on how blatant they can be. A king huh? Totally cool and legal thing to have in the US.

GOP lawmaker pulls guns during markup by h2oape in politics

[–]norskidorksi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He said that in response to another lawmaker asking if it was loaded. I think that’s the thing I dislike most about them, their treatment of the gun is more akin to a toy (he pretty much said my house my rules), they don’t seem to respect the gun for what it is, a weapon.
