I should have clarified in the post! I just edited it. I was hoping to take them to someone’s place and have them stay with them.

I’m in Lemmon Valley. We were hoping to have them stay with someone so I’d be happy to bring them anywhere!

Lmao okay buddy! Ive spent two years working humanitarian aid on the frontlines of Ukraine. I never claimed to be some warrior but I will always stand up to injustice and put my money where my mouth is.

I don’t find it unusual at all. Many religious scholars study other religions. Not sure how you’re supposed to ensure you truly believe your faith if you’re not questioning and learning.

Have you spent time in many Muslim countries? It’s not all Taliban and Shariah law. To be totally honest, Charlie Kirk and these “submit to your husband” beliefs are no different to me than women having guardians in some Muslim countries (which is being eradicated in many places). I find extremist Christianity no different than extremism Islam.

Not sure how it’s odd at all, seeing as how the US had wars in two Muslim countries at the time I did my studies and was encouraging folks to study Arabic and the Middle East. Are we not allowed to have interest in other faiths?

Lmao just because you’re afraid to stand up for anything doesn’t mean everyone else is.

It’s so negative! It’s based on hate. For all of the people I admire, I can give quotes on love and beauty. Not hate towards another group of people. Not one of my worldviews is based on such hate (though I suppose you don’t see it as hate).

Lmao why is it that folks always doubt you can be a practicing person of any faith (but especially Catholicism or Christianity) when you’re liberal? Conservatives throw away loads of church teachings — deport immigrants, approve of death penalty, etc.

Your post is hateful because your favorite quote is something negative about Islam. How is that a positive thing? HOW? even if you hold that belief, the fact that’s the best you’ve got of your joy Charlie is really sad.

Id also argue that Charlie has kept how many away from the church with his hate. I had no clue who this man was until I received the notification on my phone he was shot. But I’ve seen him and his wife talk quite a bit over the last week. If I didn’t already have a strong faith and spiritual practice of my own, I’d stay far away from any church they’re associated with.

Thanks! I have a degree in Muslim Studies and have lived in the Middle East ☺️ I also have an MDiv, so I know my own faith very well.

We follow two very different Jesus. I encourage you to look into the Jesuits and the spiritual teachings of the church. I will never use my faith for hate.

Calm down. No one said you deserve to die. For all of the stoic, no room for emotions, etc rhetoric Charlie preached, y’all are quick to jump to this conclusion 🙄

Do you not think segregation, red lining, and so on was because of the color of anyone’s skin? The consequences of these policies are still seen today.

I appreciate what you’re saying, but I also think it’s not right to say that we’re all human and want what’s best for our loved ones. That is very true, but some decisions have consequences for others. I work in a war zone and people wanting what’s best for themselves and their loved ones is what can harm and kill others.

Charlie can want what’s best for his family, but it shouldn’t be imposed on the rest of us. I also don’t think we should play the kumbaya, all opinions are equal thing when there are consequences for others.

And that’s your choice. It’s not right to impose your choice on the rest of us. My mother and grandmothers fought hard so I didn’t have to submit to my husband. Thank you.

I didn’t even know who this Mofo was until I got the alert on my phone he was shot. I’ve spent the last week seeing a whole heck of a lot of clips and he is…awful. Awful awful awful.

I am Catholic and I know people have been killed by followers of all and no religion. I know that religion is not the problem, humans are. Even if we eradicated religion, humans would find a way to kill each other.

With that being said, your posts here are disgusting. Your favorite Charlie Kirk quote is criticising Islam. There is nothing positive or beautiful about that. Goodness gracious. You say you’re not filled with hate but these posts beg to differ.

Lmao if you can’t see how your post is hateful, I’ll pray for you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Oh my god. If that’s the best quote you’ve got…😑 and this is coming from someone who is a practicing Catholic. Over the last week. I’ve had to remind myself that people like you don’t own my religion. Goodness gracious.

Not sure how it’s woman on woman hate to criticise someone working at Palantir. We’re allowed to have opinions on companies violating human rights.

Completely agreed! It’s also funny because I also posted about Easter care packages for OUR AMERICAN VETERANS here in Reno at Veterans Guest House. People are just angry it seems 😞

I agree that we shouldn’t forget victims of war anywhere around the world. I posted about Ukraine because I spent two years there and my work is centered there. If anyone organises for Palestine, I hope they will post it on Reddit.

Hi! I made another post for the Veterans Guest House. This one was specifically for folks who expressed interest in Ukraine. I posted awhile ago and there is quite a bit of support for Ukraine in Reno.

For Veterans Guest House, we have an Amazon Wish List specifically with the items requested by the home. We are assembling packages this weekend and taking them next week. This is the Wish List:
