This past week GAW has been under heavy shill attack, pushing division on anything having to do with the pedo groomer issue. Too many pedes took their bait! Would you love to see fewer crazy/gay/whatever stickies on GAW? DEPORT! And leave the shills and other assorted losers to your mod team! THX!

Bit of a political pacifist here as I try to follow Jesus. He never wrote a book or built a physical church, his power was his idea: you do not need the institutions of men to ascend, you need remission from sin.
Therefore, a good political value to uphold: let's not kill each other as political solutions.
Removing killing each other as options, and collectively withdrawing consent from those in power who kill to solve problems..... this is our common ground!
13 countries on the planet have laws to kill gays, and 4 follow thru. Trump wanted to end this and was the first to even hint at tackling it.
For you Christians.... is God's promise after the flood, the rainbow, applicable to politics? Is it a viable spiritual response to promise not to kill your political enemies?
Pretty much where I am at, fren. I learned just how hyper insecure Christian Fundamentalists, in this group at least, really are. We also learned how many will accept a tyrannical theocracy if it agrees with their personal views. A lot of this... was a reflection of my past ugliness, which is why I have less patience for fundamentalists than I do leftists. Jesus expects better out of us and when I see that shit permeate still, I try to correct it so others don't go through the same empty life that I did...
We need to learn to respect other people's lives. Adam and Steve plugging each other's cornholes across the street are not the ones ruining your life. It's the faggot fucks in DC and in the pedophile elite who are the problem. They're distracting you with Adam and Steve so you don't concern yourself with their crimes while you simultaneously turn a blind eye to your own problems. Christians have a log of issues ranging from Divorce to pedophilia problems to greed that they need to be more focused on and fixing instead of worrying about Adam and Steve's specks. Or they can do what you and I did, see man made religion for the lie that it is and embrace a personal walk with Jesus. My personal relationship with Jesus is between Him and I. As is yours and His. And everyone else individually. Fundamentalists fail to grasp this because they think they have it figured out. Their institutions preach about how horrible and lost the world is and that they need to save it... the problem is, Jesus already did. People need to choose for themselves and that's what these hyper insecure narcissists can't accept. It's like, because they choose a life of righteousness, everyone else must do the same- they're like Communism, but with a religious figure.
I am of course broadstroking. This doesn't apply to everyone and if you are reading this and feel content in your life an community, great! I'm glad you found that. Your community, however, does not absolve the problems of all the others. Nor does it grant you authority above everyone else. And that's ultimately what it all comes down to: accepting that you have authority over yourself and no one else and no Jesus is not commanding you to exert authority over others. That has been the excuse of tyrants for thousands of years. None of it is at all accurate to the character of Chris depicted in Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
The thing about actually being right is that you don't need to feel vindicated. You simply know and you accept that if others want to be wrong, that it's okay for them to be wrong. I used to believe I knew all and was better than everyone only to realize that out of 6,000 active religions and 8 billion people it was absurd to assume I was born into the correct faith. I can say with certainty that I am on the right path, but that is applicable to me. I am happy to share and debate ideas, but no one here on this Earth will ever tell me what or how to think. Not even Jesus forces the issue so what makes you think you're gonna win anyone over trying to control them and forcing your worldview on them.
That got away from me. Oh well.
Bless your heart. You’ve got a lot to learn.
