Not just acceptance but also expanding definitions probably. That + has taken on a lot more meanings in the last few decades. A lot of people who didn't think they fit in a narrow definition before now have more options to allow self-determination.

Eh, it's Jasmine Crockett, with her oratorical style I think rips into is plenty fair.

There's no human right to grift and scam people.

That's an interesting statement from a company that's owned by Clorox

I'm not entirely sure other Christians are capable of impartiality considering the long long history of Christians getting special treatment in our judicial system. You don't have to scratch the surface very hard to find a plethora of disgusting rulings that mentioned Christianity as a mitigating circumstance which allowed for lessened penalties.

It seems completely logical to me that if a judge claims her Christianity is so vital to her being that she cannot perform duties that don't align with her Christianity then she cannot give fair and impartial judgments to anybody who is not also a Christian. Anybody of any religion that's not Christianity in her courtroom should call for her recusal. Anyone not Christian for whom she has made judgment should call for mistrals.

Not even to mention the fact that can she truly be impartial to other sects of Christianity?

Evangelicalism is a cancer. Good on Rwanda for keeping a wary eye on it.

The transformation of CBS has been shocking and highly noticeable. Even just random news promotion commercials during football today you could see it. See the change in tone. The so very obvious Pro Trump Administration tone the reporting was shifting towards.

Don't get me wrong, they've always been extremely corporate, but shit they were still news organization of Walter Cronkite right? Just sad.

Man I don't know about y'all but I would not be allowing this Administration to move me to the front of the scapegoat list like this. What a dumb move on his part to be taking Center Stage here.

I'm confused, here you're saying brainwashed soldiers but down below you're saying that war crimes can only be committed by people that are inherently evil. How can it be both?
