    No, I disagreed with you that "liberals have become the most HATEFUL and INTOLERANT group that exist in America". They will lie, cheat, steal, injure, and even kill to promote an agenda. Proof is in most of the news stories in the past several years. You alluded to news articles but supplied ... NONE.

    "I" disagree that "the widespread 2020 riots took place" were started by the "left" (which you can't define), and you've offered no proof that they were. I can "handle" the truth, you can't supply any.

    Hey, if you want to live in fairytale land, that's your choice but posts like this have even your fellow lefties questioning your posts.

    But as you were, you're entitled to your opinion.

    Yes, no riots ever happened in 2020, no one was injured or killed. It's all an opinion.

    So glad someone like Kirk Cameron gets under your skin so badly. Teaching kids good morals and values is a HUGE no go according to the left. Just look at this thread, some of you have become unhinged at the simple thought of it.

    My argument isn't that the violence didn't happen, just pointing out the fallacy of yours claiming the left started it.

    It's seems I've gotten under your skin by setting things straight and calling out your lack of facts. :bye:

    Please continue to entertain all of us, are you stating the left didn't start the riots in 2020?

    It’s ironic to hear you talk about morals when you seem to be getting giddy over your police that the religious indoctrination of small children is “getting under anyone’s skin”.

    this isn’t really new, the only way the Christian religion — or really any idea that is not based on observable data — can propagate itself is through recruiting new members.

    I believe that’s the reason the religious right has been so vicious lately, they see their old message that has been effective for thousands of years is no longer working and they don’t know how to groom children fast enough.

    If people like you are the average representation of the morals you profess you want others to have… I can see why it’s not working.

    No — it’s the ones able to formulate a coherent thought instead of using trolling and cognitive dissonance as justification for their beliefs.

    Access to data and ability to view other narratives and cultures outside of the vacuums of the town they grew up in has probably been the largest tool for rapid change.

    I have high morals. I do not commit crimes, I work hard for an honest living, I love my family, and I also do things to help others when I'm able to. My community is mostly the same. Where I live there is no crime to speak of, it's safe to leave your car running at the store while you run in for things, it's safe to leave your doors unlocked, your kids are safe playing outside, and the community bands together to help those who need it. Our schools are safe and everyone says hi to each other when they walk past you, or even drive past you. This is NOT how it is in liberal run areas. Bitch and moan all you want about so called religious indoctrination as I'm not religious, but good morals and values seem to have left the liberal areas. It is nice to see someone helping to put it back. The pushback from the left on this is not surprising.

    Nah, he went for the loony tunes version of Christianity several decades ago. Very few buy his brand of nuttiness.

    I can help, even though I doubt Cameron is a bad person. Uneducated, certainly, but not bad.

    The banana, per KC, is proof of god because only someone intelligent could figure out how to make the banana fit so perfectly inside the wrapper. I’m not clear on the relevance of the banana, since all living things fit inside their wrapper.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me. I don't follow KC, so I wouldn't know of the reference. It's not the most bizarre beliefs/statements I've ever heard of from Christians. But I don't judge Christians by the stupid things they believe (or their intelligence). I judge them by their actions.

    How many do you want, do a search there are pages of like articles. Oh, and notice ... this is how you document a claim and make it more than "personal opinion".

    Which was an amazing claim, as the bananas we eat were specifically designed by humans

    In my version of Utopia, nobody would be judged on anything but their actions.

    Sorry? Sorry, but they are sources ranging from the House of Representatives to the very Right Wing Washington Post. But, without reading any of them or even bothering to read the source, you've discounted them, again without offering ANY proof of your own.

    And you, as I pointed out, are free to do your own search ... which you obviously didn't.

    The issues you have identified are due to largely to two items, population density and poverty and the second unfortunately follows the first.

    The only push back you are seeing is against religious grooming that you apparently believe is funny and the main reason you see this “push back” is due to the right wing screaming everyone is grooming children when they are the main culprit

    Try again, I live in the ozarks where there is a lot of poverty. That's not an excuse but so many try.
