Anti-Semitism In France!

I wish somebody would give Bush a BJ so we could impeach him! Any volunteers?
It might be worth it. One moment of pleasure for him, almost two years of sanity for the USA.

Of course, Cheney would have to leave office for it to make it worth while for me to volunteer..

Nancy Pelosi might do a fine job as president, she might not, but she can not do anything to top the BuSh fiasco.

Vocal about Bill Clinton! Hello! He was a national disgrace! He perverted the office of the President by having an affair in the White House with an intern, lied through his teeth to the entire country, was impeached by Congress and trashed the premises when he left office. And you question that Conservatives might have strong feelings about that? Do we even live in the same country??

Just for the record, I don't know of anyone why thinks Nixon suffered an injustice. He did what he did and reaped the consequesces of his actions. End of story! Where do you get this stuff??

Ron is right. Bill allowed 250,000 potential unborn babies to be killed at each session with the Lewinski women. Who knows that might be 2 or 3 million potential unborn babies who never had a chance at life in the USA as a child of the president.

BuSh on the other hand is only responsible for about a quarter of a million live people's deaths and injuries.

Except the the Word of God says that "the scriptures are not open to any private interpertation", and that the one (the Professor) that teaches us is the Holy Spirit of God. That is another good argument against "private interpertation" in the form of a non-literal understqanding of scripture. Virtually all Conservative students of the scriptures are in complete agreement with the major and most important doctrines and beliefs, especially regarding salvation. It is onle when you get into liberal, non-literal interpretation that you see all the disagreement of the foundational issues of the faith.

That is why God, in his wisdom, called some to be Pastors, teachers and evangelists so that others could also learn

And each of those Pastors, teachers and evangelists will have a different understanding of this book of "literal fact." Just like every good Christian.

So I guess you are volenteering then!!

Is that part of your belief system or is that a typical liberal response??

Neither.....just one of my humorous, smart-ass remarks, for which I am well-known. You didn't think it was funny?

I never thought of "unpatriotic" as an insult.

Green, unfortunately your entire point just flew over some heads.

Most people do not know the difference between Patriotism and Nationalism.

People who suffer from an overabundance of Nationalism can not see Patriotism in anyone who disagrees with them.

Private interpretation of the Bible is an inescapable reality that exists every single time any person reads the Bible. Each person has his or her own background, experience and intelligence, and each word is subject to ambiguities and significant variation in meaning. That is why, contrary to your statement, conservative students of the scripture disagree constantly and completely over the most important doctrines. Conservative students of the scripture who happent to be Catholic disagree completely with conservative students of the scripture who are Greek Orthodox, Protestant, etc. You of all people should know that.

Well I , and millions of others don't think what Bush did was wrong given what we all knew at the time, including all the Democrats that voted for the war, and the British as well. In face, Hillary was on of the biggest supporters.

You mean "given what Bush TOLD us, at the time", don't you? Turns out there was a HUGE difference between the truth and what he told us was the truth. The Democrats trusted the President to give them accurate information. Shame on them.

That is the Liberal party line of course, but the fact is there is absolutely no proof of any of it. Just because the WMD's were not found does not mean they did not exist and were transported to Syria or some other country, which was speculated. The impeachment process is for grevious offence in office, and if this rubbish were fact, the process would be under way. The fact of the matter is, the Democrats have been trying for 2-years to find impeachable offences with no results. Saying, "We don't impeach" and "we try to work with the government and elected officials we have" is so laughable that I don't think even you could believe it. The Democrats would LOVE to be able to impeach this president.
Ron is right, Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, but he was saving them for a rainie day. That is why he didn't use them in 1991 or 2003.:faint:

He did use them in 1988. I think many said "Made in USA" on the side of the weapon.

You don't think God has a sense of humor? You don't think Christians should enjoy sex, oral and otherwise? Maybe that's what's wrong with you, Ron. Maybe you need more sex and less hell fire and brimstone. Maybe we can get you and George a two-for-one deal.

Well the Tired-Old-Man for one!!
I base my faith on the Bible, just not on a "word for word" literal interpretation. Much of the Bible is allegorical IMHO.

And don't tell me that it is impossible. Just because you can not do it, doesn't mean that I can't IMNSHO.

We are dealing with people who saw off innocent peoples heads and film it, and you are so concerned for their well being???

That's like saying Jews killed Jesus, therefore Jews are bad people. Only a small fraction of Muslims are extremists and/or terrorists. Remember, Hitler claimed to be a Christian.

First of all, Catholic and Geeek Orthodox students of scripture are not Conservative , are very liberal, and do not accept the literal understand of the Bible. They interpret it allogorically, meaning it is all symbolic and open to mean whatever you want it to mean.

Secondly, Conservative students of scripture, meaning those from non-liberal foundations, all agree of the major doctrines of the faith concerning salvation, which is the backbone of true Christianity. Everything else takes second place. If yolu understood theology, you would understand this.

Except the the Word of God says that "the scriptures are not open to any private interpertation", and that the one (the Professor) that teaches us is the Holy Spirit of God.

He didn't lie! He presented the intelligence that was provided to him by the CIA and the British. Granted it was faulty intelligence, at least in part, but he didn't lie. If that was something that liberals could prove, we would be looking at a pending impeachment. That is pure liberal hype!

And you would know this how?????

      Saw my PCP & officially started my 6 month supervised diet 07/26/24. She just told me to eat less carbs & sugar, use the air fryer and not fry my foods in grease, and to try to walk 30 minutes 3 days a week & if I can't do that (and I cannot), to walk 10 minutes daily. Told me to walk fast enough that my heart rate is raised.  She didn't give me a number as far as calories though. A year or so ago I was doing low carb/sugar free and keeping my calories at 1800 or below. She said I should up my cals to 2000 at that time, so that's what I'm shooting for now.
      Hubby walked with me today. He's in pretty bad shape so I was surprised he wanted to. We walked down the gravel road at a pretty good pace (for us LOL). 10 minutes walking and my heart rate was 115bps according to my Fitbit and 125bps according to his pulsometer. Either way, it was elevated and I was breathing hard. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it's a start. We'll do it again tomorrow. 😁
      I should be hearing from the surgeon soon. She said if I didn't, to call him next week. Since I HAVE to do the 6 month diet & that's going to put me into January by the time it's done, I'm hoping the surgeon will let me do all my testing in January. I don't want to do it all now and have my deductible get met, only to have to pay the deductible again in January or February for my surgery. Praying that things go the way I hope. 🙏

      Factors Affecting the Growth of the Alternative Sweeteners Industry:
      Health Consciousness: The increasing awareness among individuals about the health issues linked to high sugar consumption, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, is supporting the market growth. Consumers are becoming more health-conscious and seeking products that can provide sweetness without the negative health effects associated with sugar. This shift in consumer preferences is leading to a greater demand for low-calorie and natural sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, and erythritol. These sweeteners offer the added benefit of having minimal impact on blood glucose levels, making them suitable for diabetic and health-conscious individuals.
      Technological Advancements: Innovations in the production and formulation of alternative sweeteners are impelling the market growth. Advancements in biotechnology and food science are leading to the development of high-intensity sweeteners with improved taste profiles and functional properties. Innovations in fermentation processes enhance the production efficiency and quality of natural sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit. These technological improvements are making alternative sweeteners more appealing to both manufacturers and consumers. Enhanced stability, solubility, and sweetness intensity allow these sweeteners to be used in a wide range of products, ranging from beverages to baked goods.
      Consumer Trends and Preferences: Evolving consumer trends and preferences are playing a significant role in driving the alternative sweeteners market. The growing demand for clean-label products, which are healthier and free from artificial ingredients, is offering a favorable market outlook. Consumers are increasingly seeking natural and plant-based sweeteners, aligning with broader trends toward plant-based diets and veganism. Besides this, there is an increase in the demand for low-calorie and sugar-free alternatives that support weight management and overall wellness. Food and beverage companies are responding to these trends by innovating and expanding their product lines to include options sweetened with alternative sweeteners, thereby catering to changing tastes and health concerns of modern consumers.

These approvals provide food and beverage manufacturers with the confidence to incorporate alternative sweeteners into their products.
