    Who will Win

    Honestly, there is probably nobody on this forum who has done more for Trump than I have. I won't say any more than that as I like anonymity.

    Bro! Friendly fire!

    Livable wage

    It's a moving target. Sometimes, I don't think people talk with their family members or look to recent history. My mother was born in the early 1960's. My grandmother was 23. My grandfather was 25 and the soul provider. He had a white-collar job in a competitive field at the time. Mom only...

    Who will Win

    One thing I'll say is I don't think there has ever been a time when it's been so controversial and outside the norm to support a sitting President. And I don't mean just in the last month and a half or so, but the last four years.

    The Supreme Court Ruling That Led To 70,000 Forced Sterilizations

    There is a book that came out this year you would really like if you have not read it yet. It's called The Age of Entitlement by Christopher Caldwell. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07THQW1R2/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1

    The Supreme Court Ruling That Led To 70,000 Forced Sterilizations

    Exactly. After some decades of ethical sanity, we've arrived back to committing the same sin with a different rationale. Instead of sterilizing invalids, we administer hormone blockers and schedule sex-change operations. The fact this is being done while our legal code allows for the...

    The procedure is broken.

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    No, it's a fairy tale because the man's recollection makes his wife lucid again.

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    My mother is in elder care and she always found the opposite is true. It's not uncommon for couples who divorce in their 50's to get back together in their 60's and 70's. One gets sick and it tugs the other's heartstrings. They have nowhere else to turn. They seldom remarry, but sickness is...

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    Pfffft. Reconnect now! It's a good yarn if nothing else. Consider my wish a Psalmist lament.

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    I don't think it's even a question. Hahaha. I had a feeling there was a Russian connection somewhere, Ms. Squirrel. Here is the amazon link to the book if you're so inclined. It's detailed and very fast-paced. I mean I wish he died earlier.

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    Yeah, I think the attraction was largely based on admiration. Power can be quite the aphrodisiac and Lenin knew what it took to gain it and wield it. He also made the women in his life feel like they were apart of his journey (more than his male friends). So not only was he destined for...

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    The only anecdote I can scare up is Lenin and his mistress Inessa Armand. She found him impressive at first, but not attractive.

    Star Wars Thread

    I'm late to the game here, but The Mandalorian is exactly the kind of Star Wars you've been waiting for. Disney didn't screw it up.

    Are Mormons Christian?

    I'll bite if you tell me what exactly this has to do with Mormonism. In short: No. I don't think everybody has a Damascus Road experience parse, but one is not saved without the illumination of the Holy Spirit. It may not be what we would call a "spiritual" or even a deeply emotional experience.

    Why do Christians support Trump?

    Christians support Trump for several reasons. 1. The relentless assault of the Left following their victory in Obergefell v. Hodges. When asked to choose between a Robber Baron and a busybody (to go back to CS Lewis' formulation), they found the Rober Baron preferable. Who can blame them...

    The Supreme Court Ruling That Led To 70,000 Forced Sterilizations

    Buck v. Bell is one of the cases I reference whenever somebody claims Roe v. Wade should stand due to precedence.

    Native American to be Secretary of Interior

    Christians on the Right are indeed the primary target. It's in Leftist literature since before there was a discernable "Left" and "Right."
