No one said Democrats don't do anything bad. Pretty much EVERYONE does bad things of some sort. Human nature.

My posts are about the hypocrites who preach, wail, moan, proselytize, demand that others follow a rule, yet for some reason consider themselves exempt from that rule. HYPOCRITES.

Do you equate infidelity with child ****?
Do you think a preacher getting caught with a hooker is the same as Joe Citizen getting caught with a hooker?
How about Joe Atheist?

Everthing else being the same, why is a preacher utilizing a street worker's services worse than a plumber? My libertarian buddy's bad actions are less bad because he's libertarian? This reminds me of the inability to define woman, there are no universal definitions. It's always a moving target that conveniently fits one's agenda.

You see Rob, you have a problem with missionaries trying to convert people to religion. Why? They don't have to convert. Some may want to convert. Who cares? It's their lives. You punish people in need of help by making up fraud and then prosecuting them for errors so you can scam money at a rate of 6:1. The missionaries are trying to HELP people... YOU are trying to destroy people. Yet you look down your nose at religious people.

Tell me, what made you choose to hurt people instead of help them?

Like Democrats demanding the public confine themselves to their homes during COVID while they went out and ate at fancy restaurants with no mask on? Or got their hair done?

Things like why nothing came of the first time?

That was discussed. They have no known reasons so far.
But he admitted to doing it.

0.005% of the worlds population. It's not a big deal.

Huh?
It's a Christian duty to convert others. Part of the religion.
Of course, peopele pick and choose what parts of religion they follow or believe in, which kind of makes it bunk to begin with.

You are not a critical thinker.

Sur am. Part of why I think religion is bunk.

I listed plenty of Democrats that have done bad things. Scroll up. Read. Your people are choir boys either.

"bad things".
My posts are about Republicans being hypocrites. Apples vs oranges.

Exactly. Hypocrisy.
Not quote the level of forcing one's religious values on others while being a pedo, but hypocrisy nonetheless. Hate it.

Why would I create a scenario based on fantasy and delusion? I'll simply refer you to pre-Nafta/Gatt economies. The world has existed without China dominating manufacturing, the world existed without the American hegemony, etc, etc, etc. The fact that you are incapable of visualizing that which already existed says alot.

So you think it's fantasy and delusion that we can bring back manufacturing to the US, and maintian our economy the way it is.

Then, why did you keep railing about the subject? Even using a (?) water pump part as your example?
If you can't create a scenario using a simple small society, how in the HELL do you think it can be done in a world of BILLIONS of people?

The world existed without automobiles, computers, airplanes. Do you think we can realistically go back to those times?
Tell me how we can eliminate Chinese manufacturing and our reliance on it.
Use a small, simple society as an example of how you can have a functioning economy where the workers do not get paid enough to buy the products that they produce and need.

Maybe a village of, say. 25,000 people?

You know this because you have the Christian playbook?

I think your Democrat buddies don't like it so you don't either.

Yes, bad things. Like you calling the President a convicted ****** but ignored this guy.

Rep. Anthony Weiner of New York (Democrat) admitted to sending sexually explicit photos of himself to several women through his Twitter account.[140] He resigned from Congress on 16 June 2011,[141] but he continued sexting.[142] On 6 November 2017, Weiner began serving a 21-month sentence for sexting a 15-year-old girl.[143]

Agreed. I'm all for the artist getting paid, but not if I'm getting bent over in the process.

Fred and Limp never get the respect in the industry. But this $200M lawsuit isn’t just about them but corporate elites screwing the little guys.

Did he claim he was coerced, Thxone for the defense?

Several. Matthew 28:19 says it.

I think your Democrat buddies don't like it so you don't either.

Oh? What's YOUR reason for not liking religion?

Yes, bad things. Like you calling the President a convicted ****** but ignored this guy.

I never said he was a convicted ******. I said he was a ******, and a judge and court case confirmed it.

Rep. Anthony Weiner of New York (Democrat) admitted to sending sexually explicit photos of himself to several women through his Twitter account.[140] He resigned from Congress on 16 June 2011,[141] but he continued sexting.[142] On 6 November 2017, Weiner began serving a 21-month sentence for sexting a 15-year-old girl.[143]

NOW you're talking.
And oh, look, even Top Democrats in the house called for an investigation, then a demand that he step down.
And look, even CNN went after him for it: https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-xpm-2011-jun-01-la-pn-weiner-clash-20110601-story.html
"But Tuesday, it was clear that Weiner was no longer interested in saying anything more about the matter. And the more that CNN reporter Dana Bash and her producer Ted Barrett pushed, the more animated Weiner became -- especially when asked, over and over again, to deny whether he had sent the photo, a crotch-level shot of a man in underwear. He was also asked repeatedly why he had not asked the police or the FBI to investigate the matter.
“You want to do the briefing?” Weiner snapped at one point to Barrett. “Why don’t you let me do the answers and you do the questions?”
He then tried to change the subject, telling the gathered press that he had now passed Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota in number of Twitter followers.
Finally he called Barrett, who continued to press him on the subject, a “jackass.”

Can you find anything on him where he pushed for laws to be made that mirrored religious tenets?

So it's not that they're pdf files or engage in other "bad behavior" that bothers you, it's the hypocrisy?

If that's the case, why were you such a staunch supporter of Where Do I Go Joe? Biden helped build the collation that passed the (anti-gay) Defense of Marriage Act.
