Even the old testament says we should care for those in need.

He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing. - Deu 10:18

It's as easy to use the Bible to justify hate as love. Weird how many Christians choose hate.

"From the moment little boys are taught they should not cry or express hurt, feelings of loneliness, or pain, that they must be tough, they are learning how to mask true feelings. In worst-case scenarios they are learning how to not feel anything ever." - bell hooks in All About Love

Although so many boys are taught to behave as though love does not matter, in their hearts they yearn for it. - bell hooks, all about love

"From the moment little boys are taught they should not cry or express hurt, feelings of loneliness, or pain, that they must be tough, they are learning how to mask true feelings. In worst-case scenarios they are learning how to not feel anything ever." - bell hooks, all about love

That could happen to which would also be bad. Either he'll end up with tons of nepo babies and yes men to back him or he'll have less people who might get in the way of what he wants to do in his department.

And that doesn't sound like an attempt to fill the positions with yes men? And that doesn't look sus?

#2: What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.

Making public servants serve the president rather than the public. Sounds like something a dictator would do.

It's almost like RFK, Jr and Co. are trying to kill the poor and/or uneducated...

In my experience most Christians never read more than a few verses that validate their biases. But point taken! Perhaps a good fiction book with an unreliable narrator. Those are my favorites.

Mine too.❤️ I've never been opposed to Christians picking and choosing what to follow from the book. I just wish more chose the stuff about loving your neighbor as opposed to the stuff they can use to justify their hate.
