    Religious iberals vs. religious conservatives

    Liberals pray for more mass shootings. Conservatives pray that there will never be another.

    Liberals pray for a economic depression. Conservatives pray for a great economy.

    Liberals pray there are more hurricanes and tornadoes that cause massive human suffering. Conservatives pray that doesn't happen.

    Liberals pray for the extinction of human life, so they can save the planet. Conservatives pray that they are wrong.

    Liberals pray that large corporations will be taxed out of business so we can put America back to work. Conservatives thank God that we have corporations.

    Liberals pray they can overturn the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Conservatives pray that God given rights are never overturned.

    Liberals pray that billions of people must die in order protect the planet from man made climate change. Conservatives pray that is merely a fad.

    Who do you think is right?

        Yes, nobody has ever been disappointed forecasting that the end-time of Revelations is almost upon us. Hey, only have to be right once.

          Historically, Conservatives like Thomas Jefferson were the original liberals. Those who refer to themselves as liberals have no understanding of the term.

            Correct. Modern conservatives are the intellectual heirs of the original liberals.

              Scripture tells that Jesus doesn't know, only Yahweh. Personally End Times is when someone leaves the Earthly stage, by then it is too late for the person to do anything about it.
              I am only responsible for what I do or don't do no one else. Those who want to make fun of Believers go right ahead!

                People have been predicting the end times/second coming since Jesus was crucified. No one (on earth) knows when the time will come as per the Bible.

                  Religious liberals are like legal liberals, they don't consider the text binding, only their interpretation of it.

                    As someone who has actually read the Gospels, I can observe that the lefties are on firm theological ground with their emphasis on the poor and downtrodden. Christianity took a blow when it became an Imperial religion. Too many church leaders, mostly on the right, have fashioned themselves as little Emperors ever since.

                      Re: Religious liberals/conservatives. This post is very poorly informed. It has no basis in fact but in biased assumptions. Any kind of reasonable reading of material produced by significant, broadly accepted thinkers / speakers who are either liberal or conservative demonstrates that in no legitimate way is it possible to support the idea that liberal persons of faith support mass shootings, economic depression, natural disasters, human extinction, destruction of business either corporate or mom and pop, overturning the COTUS or the BOR, mass death event(s) of people. Whether liberal or conservative, persons of faith hope and pray that God will bless our nation as our nation commits itself in Christ to doing what is right and good and just. There are those individuals who seek to "fleece the flock," i.e., take advantage of believers to advance their own agenda whether social, political, etc. The post in its entirety demonstrates no rational thought process. JMHO. Sincerely. bruce.

                        As it's been said many times by many people: "you CAN'T be a Christian if you vote democrat". Not in todays world with their beliefs portrayed every day with new anti-American anti-Christian rhetoric.

                            Jefferson's last public letter, written shortly before he died. After a lifetime of reflection, this is where he end up. I challenge people to read it.



                            Conservative by 2020 standards? Hardly.

                              Re: Jefferson. He was not particularly Conservative in that era, nor were many of the Founding Fathers. Their very act of rebellion against the crown marked them as beyond the pale of conservatism that in that era sided w/ the crown. Two hundred forty-three years later, it is doubtful that the Founding Fathers would be entirely welcomed by those who generally consider themselves Conservatives, and it is absolutely certain that he would not be welcomed by those who consider themselves the brightest and best flashlights of liberalism. Sincerely. bruce.
