Oh, good gravy. Not everything is a stinking conspiracy. It's a design. I kind of like the sneezing elephant. Maybe it's one of those psychological tests, and if you see an owl and complain about it being an owl, they might realize you shouldn't be on Parler anyway. If you don't like Parler, stay on Twitter.
I'm not trying to be combative. Honestly, but I had commented back to you that maybe I did misunderstand what you were saying, maybe we were on the same wavelength and coming at it from different directions. However, with your response, I think that we are on different wavelengths, but that's okay with me. Good conversation comes from discussing where we stand on issues. You don't have to agree with me, and I don't have to bow down to what you believe. Combat conversation is for Twitter, and that's why I explained my tone when I write something. I write for a living, and I edit for a living. I can sound more direct than I really mean to sound. I have a standard apology for all the writers I work with for the publisher I edit for, and I always have to apologize to my poor editor at the publisher I write for. That apology is similar to the one I gave to you in a previous comment but It is sincere. I have trouble turning the switch from work to non-work communication.
Let's just agree to disagree and still remain friendly--and I think you did that in your response. I appreciate it. Maybe we'll see some other people's thoughts that may differ from both of us. I saw a few before I responded.
Oh, good. Maybe they'll be able to get those 301 witnesses on the stand, including Pelosi, McConnell, Schumer, and Sullivan, and they can get that information Nancy's holding on to with clenched fists. I was a court clerk for years. Trials are usually boring, but I'd like to see that one.
I'm not sure who this is, but he's made several videos out of old news. Don't even bother. Nothing to see here.
I commented a few other times, and I agree. I probably did misunderstand what you were saying. We may even be on the same wavelength and saying it in different ways.
I believe God is in whatever's happening as He is involved in everything that happens. I just pray that whatever is happening is occurring to show us a picture of what life will be. I really do not want to believe that our country, the last truly free country (as we once believed freedom) was lost without a shot fired through a stolen election and that is all there is.
Good point on the "revelations." Yes, the book is full of them. I was one who did the picking, too, but it is important to be very careful when we speak of Scripture, and those who know the title does not have an "s" at the end, are discerning the true level of understanding of Biblical principles and truths. This may seem minor, but it truly is major. If we can't discern the small things, we will never discern the larger things, and Scripture and the teaching of Scripture should never be taken lightly. The Word tells us that misleading whether intentionally or unintentionally is a serious matter.
God bless. I'm glad that you are looking into the Scriptures. I may have sounded as if I thought otherwise. I hope that you will continue to seek the truth. I sometimes do sound in my writing as if I'm coming down on someone. It's the editor and author in me. We're tough on folks because we get in a thought mode when trying to explain edits or even to offer up excuses (authors) for why we included something the editor deletes. So, I apologize for the way I presented my thoughts. I could have been nicer.
No, you didn't mention Trump. That's true. It's just that the equating of what the Book of Revelation describes with Q makes it seem as if Q is taking the place of God. Revelation is understandable, and it isn't the only book in the Bible with prophecy of the end times. Daniel includes it and so does Matthew (chapter 24). There are other pictures in the major and minor prophets. As noted in my comment, I have no problem believing that God can show us a picture of the 1,000 year reign of Christ and use men or a computer or whatever Q is and a man like President Trump to show us that picture. I cannot believe, however, that Q is God or that Q can bring on the 1,000 year reign which will then lead us into an eternity of goodness. My belief that He can do so if He wishes to do so is based on the biblical fact that He has shown us pictures of the anti-Christ. We just have to be very careful with what we equate to Q. Q is not God.
For those who mentioned they don't want to see heaven, my heart bleeds for them. Heaven isn't utopia. Heaven is the place where God resides, where we will live with Him in perfection, sanctified by His mercy, to live and serve Him forever.
There is no Book of Revelations, which is the first hint that tells me that Biblical knowledge isn't your forte. John wrote the Book of Revelation. And anyone who believes that Q has anything to do with religion other than the fact that those in Q may be Christians truly does not understand the Christian faith. There is only one savior and His name is Christ. Q and President Trump may be being used, but they are not biblical.
While I do not buy that Q has anything to do with the true end times, I have a theory. First, though, you can understand Revelation if you study it and realize that it is like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces missing, but some of those pieces have fallen into place within some of our lifetimes. Revelation does not describe the end of humanity. In fact, for a period of a thousand years following the tribulation, mankind continues, and even after Jesus returns, mankind still has freewill. After that is the final judgment. Mankind always continues. We don't turn into angels. Our bodies are changed, but there will be bodies celestial and bodies terrestrial.
But if we know our Biblical history, we know that God has presented us pictures of the anti-Christ. These people were not the anti-Christ (Xerxes, Hitler ...) Is it possible that God could be presenting us with a picture of the thousand years? Could He be cleaning up the evil to give us a picture of what life will be like during Christ's 1,000 year reign? Could He be allowing this to happen to show that we have a choice between good and evil and no matter how good the world can become with love and peace, there are those who will still choose evil?
Q is not God. Q is not a religion. Q is not in the Bible. I have a great hope that God is using Q and President Trump in a mighty way to revive the world, but it doesn't stop me from responsibly thinking of other scenarios like what if Q were the pot of boiling water, and those following Q are jumping in the pot, and the anons are turning up the heat in an attempt to keep We the People from taking action against the evil? If you want to see an example of what I'm talking about, watch the way that last thought will be jumped upon on this forum.
But truly, I pray that God is giving us a look at what Christ's reign will be like on this earth. If he can show us the bad, he can definitely show us a picture of the good. But that's all it would be: a picture just like the pictures of anti-Christ (one of which is spoken of in the Bible as just that, a picture of the anti-Christ).
Please be careful with falling into the unitarianism view of Q and the Great Awakening. The COEXIST movement is from Satan and is also a worship of Satan. All you need to know about unitarianism is that the letter at the end, the letter that represents the religion and the only One True God is the one that most unitarians deny as they worship the other false gods. The One True God cannot represent all of the false religions of the world, or as I said to my once unitarian-believing m-i-l on September 11, 2001, "How can the same god who drove those men to fly those planes into those buildings be the same God who loved all those people who died?" I hope that pondering that statement wakes up people the way it did her. She was shaken by the truth and sought the One True God and worshiped Christ as Savior. Repenting of our sin and recognizing Christ as Savior will definitely open up much of the Book of Revelation to those who study it. Until then, most of it will remain a mystery because God gives us the Holy Spirit to open up Truth to us by bringing to remembrance all things that Jesus taught.
As noted, I'm not happy with Bongino. I haven't seen him as pandering to unity. In fact, I've heard him say you cannot unify with people who want to put you into a concentration camp. However, I don't know the other owners, and I can't speak to what they've been doing. I enjoy Parler because you can actually have a discussion similar to the one we're having now. No rancor, etc. Just an honest conversation.
To be honest, if someone misunderstands you on the forum, they will tear you apart, and question anything Q, and they place you against the wall and pull out the firing squad. I'm hopeful in Q, but I do have honest and sincere questions. I don't dare ask them on this forum because if taken in the wrong way, they will come at you. That bothers me because it means that we are doing the censoring on our own.
I'm having no problems, and I've had some problems with Bongino's recent programs, but I don't think he's on the wrong side of Conservative issues. I think he is ill-informed in some.
I'm asking this as a true question and not trying to be sarcastic: why are so many on GA wanting Parler to fail so badly? Shouldn't we support other alternatives to Twitter and Facebook (and no I do not believe Matze's statement to cover his caboose, that the owners wanted to censor. It wasn't happening). I can't speak for Matze's reasons, but either he was irresponsible or purposeful in helping to bring down the system.
I enjoyed Parler, especially since I was pushed off Twitter. Some people also did complain about Gab and how slow it was, etc., etc., but those people never took into account that when Parler went down, Gab had people join en masse. I've heard complaining against Bitchute and Clouthub, but I think the problems are good ones and they are being overcome. You always have problems in business. The good ones overcome. So, why should we be cheering their demise especially since they provide freedom from censorship?
Again, I try to listen to Bongino because he is seemingly a good man who refuses to look at things that are not main stream, and I was a little upset when he took his correct grievances out on Matze on his show. I don't listen to him to hear him talk "Parler" and the woe-is-me about social media. If the Parler owners were to take Matze to trial, I think they'd be surprised at the outcome. Yes, I believe decisions he made, whether purposefully or ignorantly, caused harm to Parler, but Dan is on tape on his own show sharing the 90% negligence he and the other two owners have when he says they went to Matze three times to ask why he was using AWS. Owners don't have to ask the CEO. They tell the CEO to find or build a new platform. Dan also keeps pounding the 2022 and 2024 beat without realizing that there will never be another proper election unless we have another answer to the thievery and treason conducted before, during, and even after the 2020 election. And the other thing that bugs me about Dan right now, is his loyalty to Fox News. I know he's under contract, but he said he was looking for alternatives. Now, he seems to be hoisting their flag, and I will never watch Fox News again, and I lack trust in anyone who is still associated with them or any other MSM.
She needs to answer the questions they've asked of her first. The letters have also been sent out requesting documentation from officials at the Capitol. I think she believes she can get ahead of the Republican investigation and make up her own stories because they believe they're in full control. I hope she keeps doing what she's doing. The noose is tightening around her neck. I wonder if they'll hang her with one of her masks that match her clothes.
I think you got that backward. The CEO was fired because he was asked three times by the three owners why he chose liberal AWS. My problem was that Bongino went on the air to battle this, and he better realize if he take Matze to court, the jury will receive instructions about percentage of negligence. The three owners, as I see it, own about 90% of the negligence. They could have assured that he changed or arranged to build a better server. But I'm happy that they're back. It's a victory, and we should all be happy. And I'm in.
Earlier, AT&T reported a nationwide outage of Internet and television. Not sure if it was weather related, but the person having the problem is in Florida and out of any of the weather currently and at the time of the reported outage.
So Kayleigh lives in Florida. I don't even know what type of account this is, but last I heard, she was here. Something's not right ...
Now I get "Bad Gateway" error for X22. Previous error message said "handshakes." Sorry. I couldn't even pretend to be an IT guru.
Friend discovered AT&T internet and television down across country about an hour ago. Our phones are still working in FL. X22 was down, but I was able to view ten minute ago. And GA is having some trouble.
Was down. Just came up.
No. Not at all. I wanted to share in a conversation. You may have thought it was stupid. Maybe it was, but it is quite impolite and very presumptuous of you to think you know what someone is thinking. I was not rude to you. I was not attacking you. Our definitions of a "forum" must have gotten crossed. So, once again, my apologies for the misunderstanding.
I'm getting the sign in page, but I can't sign in. I've asked them to send me a link to recover password. I keep telling myself to be patient. I'm just glad they're getting a new start.
I have no idea what your problem with my statement is about. I was not attacking you. I was adding to the conversation. If you didn't care, why did you have to respond? Seriously, you'd think I attacked your belief in Q. I was pointing out that their making criminals out of what they call "Qanon" tells what you need to know about their lack of knowledge. It was not a statement against your statement. Have a nice day.
I thought you might since you made the comment. I apologize. You apparently didn't mean to have a conversation. You just wanted to have your "say."
Really. It smells like betrayal to me.
Why accept her statement? Why not call Kevin McCarthy to testify? I can't find reliable information that his statement was even made. It doesn't mean he didn't say it, but if he did, why won't they call him and let him testify to it? That makes me think the "reportedly" is exactly what all "reported" stories are: a sham.
Yes, any plane that the President is on becomes AF 1, but how likely is it that it isn't one of the two planes commissioned as AF1 except in exceptional circumstances. My concern now is that we've been shown an older picture of Air Force 2 during Biden's VP days. I've found a pic that looks much like this one, and it is AF 2. I struggle with remembering that dates are important when researching these things. Someone posting an article or a pic out of context can cause confusion. Not saying this isn't a new pica, though. I have no idea.
That is passive aggressive not only toward the business but toward the employees. If you believe in your cause, you should be willing to pay the price for that cause. The cause is freedom from masks. You're proving nothing by wearing masks and saying you're protesting but actually being submissive in your passive aggressive actions. Take off the mask. Shop in groups. Make them make the decision not to serve you. Then your passive aggressive action gives them a few alternatives: 1) don't cash you out and have to do with the food whatever they have to do; 2) cash you out and thus meet your demands and empower others who may be hiding behind the submissive mask to do the same thing; or 3) they may call the police. There isn't a law that says one must wear a mask, and check your state. Most state laws, but maybe not all, require one trespass warning before you are charged with misdemeanor trespassing. Just keep sending new people. Let the maskless movement grow. Let them know you won't back down. Keep adding newcomers. I live in Florida, and I Thank God for that fact every day, but we are still dealing with some pockets of submissive militants who demand masks. We just ignore them. I have the joyful freedom of going out to breakfast to our favorite diner where inside, people sit without masks, the waitresses are maskless, and you would never know COVID existed if you didn't walk outside of there establishment.
