Christianity does not look like praying, singing, and giving money while ignoring the screams, unspeakable suffering, filth, and death of others. Christianity is not calling others *them*—somehow unlike us, not human, and deserving of their suffering.

Empathy is good, but only when it costs us nothing and it's only good when Elon decides it's appropriate - summarized.

Many of you know we've been in Senator Mitt Romney's corner since 2005. I've never been prouder of that decision than now.

I think about this quote reflecting on my relationship with faith Pre-2016.
It was much easier to believe everything was Black and White/ Good Guys and Bad Guys. I was the picture of a perfect Conservative Evangelical.
I don't regret the formation I've had. But I miss how easier it all seemed.

Donald Trump said he’ll stop all federal funding to schools that allow “illegal protests.”
We were right when we said he was a fascist who doesn’t care about the Constitution.

There's a Viral Post going around Facebook right now about how Trump was actually 10 Steps Ahead and playing 4D Chess with Zelensky, and the guy introduces this tirade qualified by his expertise- he does Karate.
You cannot make this up.

President Zelenskyy reminded Franklin Graham and Americans today that Russia has abducted many little children from Ukraine and committed other crimes.

If you are a God fearing person, then it is prudent to recognize that God will judge our nation, its leaders, and its people accordingly for failing to protect the vulnerable.

I'm ashamed to be an American today following Trump and Vance's awful display with Zelensky.
Trump and Vance’s meeting with Zelensky in the Oval Office today “gave the lie to any claim that this administration’s policy is driven by any strategic effort to advance the interests of the United States, however misguided,” @davidfrum.bsky.social writes.

antivaxx is a luxury belief that only was able to fester because vaccines were so effective that people forgot how horrible these diseases are
As the measles outbreak in Texas keeps spreading, parents who previously chose not to vaccinate their children are now lining up to get their kids the shots needed to protect them from the serious illness.
As Texas measles outbreak grows, parents are choosing to vaccinate kids
At least 124 people, mostly babies, children and teens, have been infected. Eighteen people have been hospitalized.

Notice how it’s always “the Bible must inform our laws!” until it comes to the verses about welcoming the immigrant, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, bringing healthcare to the sick, forgiving debts, not charging interest, caring for our planet, laying down our swords, or loving our neighbors.

Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."
