@ThomasWic @Jackie I think the NFL will be fine.Honestly it just reads like the NFL gave Jay-Z " here's a bag of money and a superficial title, now shut the f*** up and do some silly work while we get back to football" money.I will agree the NFL has no balls, but I think they are just trying to hide him now, kind of like how they're hiding the national anthem now since the kneeling became a thing

@Cdubois @REX @Debradelai @NevadaJack Catholic here.Tired of self-loathing Catholics.I've been a part of some great Parishes.My kid altar serves.For me, the Catholic Church is home.And we in the Catholic body have endured corrupt Popes & political infiltration before, YET HERE WE STILL ARE.We will weather this too, our socialist Pope and Soros attempts to corrupt the church via fake Catholic organizations, etc. And if a purge is needed, I pray it happens. But the church will endure...

@Cdubois @REX @Debradelai @NevadaJack And Rex, for the record, Jesus and St Peter didn't bounce out of the Catholic church. There was no Catholic church for them to bounce out of at that time. The term Catholic wasn't even used prior to Saint Ignatius in 54 ad, some 20 years after the death of Christ.

@Debradelai @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack fair enough. My issue is how Rex framed it, as if Jesus and St Peter said, "oh crap, the faith has become the Catholic church, I'm outta here!"It's a disingenuous framing borne of his agitation with the church

@Dawnz @Debradelai @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack people who are self-loathing don't ever think they are.I have a major issue with all those things too. But a church isn't it's leadership; it's its people.I take umbrage with the way Rex framed it, like St Peter and Jesus took one look at the church and ran. It's a self-loathing view.

@Debradelai @Dawnz @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack The fact that I agreed with much of the criticism belies your point here.I took umbrage with Rex's portrayal of Jesus and St Peter, that's all.And only because I've seen many variations of Christianity, Catholocism included, go down dark paths thinking they hold the true character of God, when really they are projecting themselves unto a concept of what they want God to be.So, pardon me if it rubs me the wrong way when I see the seeds of that

@ThomasWic @umad80 @Sarah_Roberts agreed. I think on Twitter I told you this once - Trump is like a master Boxer mixed with a master chess player.Every punch he throws is both an actual attack and a feint.If the attack he throws lands, great! He presses on with the attack. But every single one of his attacks is designed also to go to his opponent into attacking in a way he can anticipate and be ready for and throw a counter punch as the opponent is going in for that attack.

@cshores8 @Debradelai @Dawnz @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack except that I'm a Catholic and I wasn't criticizing all Catholics. In fact this started out with me trying to defend Catholicism a little bit as I'm tired of people taking potshots at it.However my semantics to seem to have struck a few nerves, & I ended up defending a position I really wasn't even intending to get into a debate about an end up getting called pea-brained essentially for my efforts. Anyway I'm whining now so I'll shut up

@Debradelai @cshores8 @Dawnz @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack Saul, where the hell did I defend the Pope?I even said I agreed with the criticism of the Pope and I happen to agree with you that he's a complete fascist and I don't want him as my Pope.You were calling me pea-brained and yet all I am seeing here is you reading into my comments way too much.I am not trying to pick a fight with you; but it seems you have a script ready to go, but it's not fitting when I actually said.

@Debradelai @cshores8 @Dawnz @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack if you want to get down to it I think the Catholic church is in major need of reform.I'm as sick as of the corruption is anybody else.If there's a criticism of me to be had here it's that perhaps I'm too thin-skinned and read too much into Rex's original comments.But I certainly wasn't going in the direction you seem to be taking this argument and you seem to be thinking I'm making arguments that I'm not actually making.

@Debradelai @cshores8 @Dawnz @Cdubois @REX @NevadaJack at this point think of me whatever you want.I'm a flawed person who may have made a rash judgment and because of some of the verbiage I used led you to believe things about me which were completely untrue especially if you go by some of my other comments.I appreciate you and the place you've built here, but if it's okay I refuse to personally take this any further on this subject. It's gone WAY off the rails...

This made starting with that generation prime for Mass manipulation. In the sixties and likely the fifties as well, the infiltration of Communists into the educational system and into our government began. When you read about their plans to take apart a society, you can easily see that may carry this out successfully - breaking down family units, getting people to worship government over God, etc. They played the long game.

@ThomasWic the other thing is, let's say Trump is impeached. We get president pence. The most honest Trump is the one who addresses the American people. He himself said he is only the messenger.When you consider people like Jeff sessions, Mr Barr, general Flynn, Horowitz, and a ton of others, I don't think Trump planned his presidency in a vacuum even if he did start in 1984-85.He's part of a group of patriotic spooks, law experts, current and ex-military, etc

@ThomasWic They would have multiple plans and contingency plans baked within those plans.To put it in boxing terms, they have it all gamed out that every punch is both legitimate and also a feint. Figuratively speaking, it's like combining Mike Tyson with chess champion Bobby Fischer- the ability to end it all with one punch combined with the ability to see several moves ahead of your opponent - and make your punches lead your opponent into the haymaker that ends them.

@ThomasWic I firmly believe that with the intellect Trump has and his resources, if you were so inclined he could rule the whole damn world, super villain style.which makes it even more incredible that instead of that, he is battling and has gamed out how to make the entire world a better place.I predict the DNC is dead or reformed in 5 years. Socialism will be mostly dead in the world in 20 years. And for the most part on Earth, all will truly be well. What a historic time to be alive.
