I don't know if I am correct. So that is why it is so important to engage in discussions with people that don't echo exactly what you believe. I think it is really important to have a growth mindset and not to be stuck in your way of thinking and be willing to unlearn that which you thought you knew

Suggestion for a Constitutional way to remove guns from a liberal state for the second amendment says "A well ordered militia" - simply draft anyone who possesses a gun into a militia and require them to march for 2 hours every Saturday morning at 6:00 AM.

No, he didn't. He killed someone in cold blood and then ran. That is not the right thing.

Do I think that there are some mitigating circumstances that should be considered - yes. But raising him up as a hero is just like those that raise up Kyle Rittenhouse as a hero. Neither of them are.

Pope Francis: “The migrant must be welcomed, accompanied, encouraged and integrated. This generosity, this industriousness is in harmony with the Gospel, which invites us to do good to everyone, and in particular the last, the poorest, the most abandoned, the sick, people in danger.”

Not in my experience. Perhaps the liberal are in general more open to getting medical assistance with their problems rather than ignoring them.

We can see in the acceptance of the scientific recommendations around COVID as they were much more accepted by liberal than conservative areas.

Thought - Donald Trump wants a market crash so therefore when he doesn't do the things he is threatening to do now and the market recovers after Jan 20th, he can say that he saved the Economy from the terrible democrats without actually doing the hard work.

Four things Catholics need to know about transgender people
While there is a lot we don’t yet understand about being transgender, there is an abundance of reputable medical evidence to verify the reality of transgender people's experiences.
