@NaomiRHelm @PDXRNCH Because my late wife was a 20 year cop I tend to try and understand the cop point of view. I understand here the cops are brutal using unnecessary violence. Don’t need a backstory.

@Jesspecting @Kissmyazz24 I get the impression that the “over sexualized culture” is one where men are incapable of seeing an attractive woman without becoming sexually stimulated proving a preoccupation with sex. This is proving the Christian culture is the problem.

@PoliticsUncens1 I sent an email to Walmart’s customer service complaining about that very issue. I very, very seldom go to Walmart. The most annoying thing about the store is that they are subsidized through food stamps by taxpayers in order to pay a non-living wage. It really upsets me.

@Aruthasexy1 I studied the Bible in depth, I studied history in depth, I studied philosophy in depth, and I studied theology in depth. My conclusion was that evangelical Christianity of today bears more resemblance to the Gospel of Walmart than it does to the teachings of the Christ.
