    Enough of all this absurd analysis. The simple truth at the bottom of all this is the stupidity of political correctness forbids open criticism of so called holy books.
    Simple really, but endles convoluted arguments chase each other in circles in an attempt to avoid this.

    The Bible, as you know, contains both old and new testaments. I suggest a read through the former for examples of genocide, infanticide and murder-all in the name of God. I believe both old and new testaments are 'god's word' and should be obeyed by all good Christians, don't you?

    "Everybody knows"? By 'everybody' you mean you, right?

    I guess you never heard of the 'Lord's Resistance Army', happily murdering anyone and everyone since 1986. Doing God's work in a kindly and loving Christian way, naturally. So, would you call Kony a Christian or would you judge him by his actions? Likewise it is foolish in the extreme to link Islamic fundamentalist lunatics with Islam, despite what they yell. They no more represent Islam than the likes of Kony do Christianity.

    So your contention is that there are more blacks on "the system" than whites or is your contention that there are less blacks in the country viably working & contributing than any other group?

    Well lets take a look at some facts "instead of fantasy"..................

    Stereotype Debunked: More Whites Receive Food Stamps Than Blacks

    From former President Ronald Reagan to Gene Alday, a current Republican member of the Mississippi state legislature, many politicians, typically from the GOP, like to stereotype Black people as food stamp recipients. Alday had to recently apologize for telling a reporter that all the African Americans in Walls, Mississippi, are unemployed and on food stamps.

    “I come from a town where all the Blacks are getting food stamps and what I call ‘welfare crazy checks,'” Alday told The Clarion-Ledger. “They don’t work.”

    But it’s quite the contrary. Looking at national numbers, most of the people who receive benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are actually white. Department of Agriculture data from 2013, which administers welfare, 40.2 percent of SNAP recipients are white, 25.7 percent are Black, 10.3 percent are Hispanic, 2.1 percent are Asian and 1.2 percent are Native American.

    However, in the two congressional districts that overlap Alday’s state legislature district, African Americans really do receive more food stamps than whites.

    In 2013, benefits were received by 23 million households and 47 million individuals got benefits on an average month. But enrollment did drop a bit to 22 million households and 46 million individuals in 2014. Of those households, three-quarters of those households included a child, an elderly person, or someone with a disability. “The average monthly benefit per household was $274 in 2013 and $256 last year,” reports The Huffington Post.

    More important than all of that, SNAP benefits kept 4.8 million Americans of different races out of poverty, including 2.1 million children. “By providing low-income families with resources to buy food, SNAP not only reduces ‘food insecurity’ (difficulty affording adequate food) but also frees up room in their very tight budgets to cover other necessities, such as rent and clothing,” the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities wrote back in October.

    Who Gets Food Stamps? White People, Mostly

    And then we have all of the trailer parks in YOUR STATE of Pennsylvania that are filled with low income whites that are either on the system, unemployed "by choice" or are street pharmaceutical salesmen involved in the selling & distribution of crystal meth.................

    Oh Merwen, you really didn't want to open this can of worms with me.

    I grew up in Jersey, and hung out in PA for years so I know everything there is to know about Pennsylvanian, and there isn't much you can tell me about people that are drags on the system.

    I guess (according to you) we should just put all the blacks & Muslims on ships headed back to places like Africa and the Middle East.

    I guess that would just fix everything now wouldn't it?

    Well my friend I have some bad news for you, Muslims & Blacks have babies at a rate of 6 to 1 to Caucasians so it looks like your chit out of luck, and the last consensus report had this to say:

    https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2015/demo/p25-1143.pdf

    I can just cut right to the chase and tell you what it says....................whites are "quickly" becoming the minority.

    I leave you now to go sulk about it........:roll:

    Yep. There's definitely a negative correlation between social stratum, intelligence, education, income and number of children born into the family. A well known fact to all but you, otherwise you would not gloat about :wall:

    Agreed. I love how Christians think that their evil book is any more moral than the Muslim's evil book. Hilarious. They need to really read their book, to realize just how evil the mass-murdering heroes of said book really are.

    True Christians follow the words of Christ, which are all in the New Testament.

    I certainly wouldn't "flee" to a place where people welcomed me and then blow them up or shoot them.

    Bush and crew did lie; it seems obvious. Some of us figured this out before their attack of Iraq but Saddam had provided them with too much ammunition for us to be able to stop them...any more than we could stop Bush II from being elected in the first place.

    Many working poor are on food stamps. I was referring to women that go on full welfare. Seventy per cent of black babies born in the US are born to single mothers, often ignorant young teens.

    Additionally, of course, you have to adjust percentages because blacks are a smaller portion of our citizenry.

    Regarding"outnumbering" whites, IMO you are the one that needs to worry, as it is your taxes that will go up, not mine.

    Like these three?
    John. Ch:19V: 30 "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished:" and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
    Matthew Ch: 27.V: 46,50: "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" ...Jesus, when he cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost."
    Luke: Ch: 23.V:46. "And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, "Father, unto thy hands I commend my spirit:" and having said thus, he gave up the ghost."

    Or this lot of muddled reports of what was seen at the tomb?
    Luke.Ch: 24.V:4. And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
    Matthew Ch: 28. V: 2. And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
    Matthew. Ch: 28. V:3. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
    Matthew. Ch: 28. V:4. And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
    Matthew. Ch: 28.V:5. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
    John. Ch: 20. V:12. And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
    Mark.Ch: 16.V: 5. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

    Wow you seem to be pretty good at citing scripture. My favorite one was when Jesus said "I did it like this, I did it like that, I did it wit a whiffle ball bat." Do you recall which chapter and verse that is?

    Oh wait, that was Mike D....always getting the two confused.:smile:

    Inconsistencies show that no one group cleaned it all up, which tends to increase reliability.

    Western culture is much more a Roman culture than Jewish, but I wont argue how the dark side views us, ignorance is part of its training

    Well, over the decades I've encountered some bizarre biblical apologetics but none quite as self-deluding as that one. Never mind, it's the Word of God and he/she/ it moves in mysterious ways.

    Who exactly are 'the dark side'?

    How about Jews who criticise Israel? I know a number living in Israel who are more than critical about their nations peculiar territorial ambitions.

    Indeed, and also anyone acquainted with the works of Noam Chomsky rather than Netanyahu's propaganda industry will soon discover that the perma-victim, Israel, isn't quite as innocent and besieged as they would like the world to believe. We can also thank the internet for enlightening us.

    'Fraid so. Israel is one of the worst state in term of its foreign policy and human rights. Bloody awful, in fact.

    Will that do for starters? :smile:
