Nope, I am obviously gone. that is the bleeding edge of your ability to figure things out. So wrong ,so often. Don't stop now, the ignorance you possess is impressive,.

people who violate 12b have to be banned........you're post was an obvious violation.......if they don't ban you they will have to abandon rule 12b.......
Wrong as always. But asking you to understand the logic and words in the rules is impossible.

Evidently he has had someone "running interference" for him and making such comments are now acceptable.

Damo already got "irritated" over me talking about this.
Some people are losing their sense of humor.

A message questioning U.S. border agents' use of tear gas at the southern border was posted outside the United Methodist Building in Washington, D.C., this week.
"I was a stranger, and you tear gassed me.'... Wait a second," the church's outside message board read.
The building is adjacent to the the U.S. Capitol and the Supreme Court.
Warren Gill, a spokesperson for the General Board of Church and Society, the proprietor of the building, told The Hill on Thursday that the group "posted the sign to highlight the disconnect between the words of Jesus and the actions of the U.S. government."
"The United Methodist Church has made clear that welcoming sojourners is central to our faithfulness to scripture," Gill said. "I spoke with migrants on a recent trip to the U.S.-Mexico border. People are fleeing authentic and disturbing violence, violence most Americans only see in fiction... People are fleeing this violence and were welcomed at the border with tear gas."
Gill added that he believes "Jesus was clear" and that individuals "are called to love our neighbors and protect children."

What Should We Learn?
1. Don’t make the same mistakes.
Of course we won’t literally be selling sacrificial animals or providing a money exchange for worshipers, but we can take advantage of others. Do you ever use others to in order to advance your own purposes? Have you ever borrowed money from a generous friend when you have no intention of repayment? At work, do you push the less savory tasks onto your subordinate simply because you have the power to do so? Do you ask favors of people who don’t know how to say no?
2. Speak up when others do the same thing.
The flip side of taking advantage of others is speaking up when you see someone else doing it. Jesus spoke up in no uncertain terms . . . perhaps we should do the same?
3. Anger can be a good thing.
Anger is often portrayed as a negative emotion, but the God who gave us our emotions expects us to be occasionally moved to anger. Jesus was angry because men were perverting the use of his Father’s house. How about you? Does child abuse make you angry? What emotions are fired off when you hear about human trafficking? If anger is nowhere on your radar, you might need to ask yourself why it isn’t! That anger can be a great catalyst to getting us involved in causes we would otherwise ignore.
4. We are the Temple.
I realize that we need to be wise about what activities take place in church buildings, but the bigger point is that today’s believers in Christ are the church. Therefore, as we mingle in the world around us, we are showcasing the church. If the Temple was made for prayer, do we think we, the children of God, have any less of a calling? Is it possible that we are guilty of perverting the use of “God’s house” when we compromise our prayer walk?
The Rest of the Story
What happened after Jesus threw those moneychangers from the Temple? I imagine there was a shocked silence as people awkwardly waited to see what would happen next. The Bible tells us that the blind and the lame came to him, and children recognized him as “Hosanna, son of David.”
Think about it: Immediately after Jesus dealt with the opportunists, he became a magnet for the very ones whom others so often take advantage of. It may be that when we take a courageous stand for righteousness, some will recognize and appreciate that stand. The world is full of downtrodden people who are looking for someone to stand up for them. If we don’t do it, who will?

jesus would hate this republican party
I am not judgmental and I don't even claim to be a great Christian (I do try) but I would much rather be in my shoes than lots of the religious types that call themselves conservatives.
