So one thing that gets on my nerves about the royals forums and bloggers and tumblr at times. They claim so hard that DM is the start of all the negative press with there articles and so on. Then go and say we all should boycott cause their tired of them and agenda. But turn around and use their articles and link every thing. I'm so tired of hearing I don't like the articles but I like the pics. If you don't like their posts well stay off of them entirely. It's hypocritical

I understand what you mean. But people are lax with their principles.

For me, it is very clear that the DM plays both sides. No paper has any principles anymore, most of it is run by PR money. If people think that any paper is really authentic, and that their opinions, be it political or social, are not bought, are being totally naive.

Use your own eyes, and ears, and critical thinking. Because everything is for sale in this world. Including your best friend and your political leader. Capitalism FTW.

You FOOL!

Is it okay to call someone a fool?

No “But anyone who says [to a brother], ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell.” - Matt 5:22b

Yes If they are atheists - Psalms 14:1, 53:1 If they trust their own hearts - Prov 28:26 Jesus called people fools (in the classic “do as I say, not as I do” scenarios) - Matt 23:17,19; Luke 11:40, 24:25 Paul did as well - Rom 1:21-22; 1 Cor 15:36; Gal 3:1

There seems to be more weight toward calling people fools than not.  There are also 5 ways to call someone foolish (anoétos, aphrón, asunetos, mórainó, and  móros) in the NT.

Who does this apply to?  According to John Gill, ‘brother’ in “...whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause...” does not mean

In a religious sense

One of the same faith

One of the same church state

A sibling

It means in a large sense any man of any country or nation.  We are to be angry with no man.

The greek word adelphos, translated as ‘brother’ actually mean “a brother, member of the same religious community, especially a fellow-christian.”

So it’s a bit disingenuous to claim that it actually means “any man.”  I will however agree that it’s better to apply it to everyone, not just those one is religiously associated with, which is what the verse means.

Republican lawmakers sent their thoughts and prayers to victims of the mass shooting in an Orlando gay nightclub. But gun control and LGBTQ advocates say their politics don't match their messages.

Gotta Love Blue-Sunflowers

Confront them on their candidates hypocrisy, and they respond then run away. Getting a straight answer out of them is like getting Hillary Clinton to release her transcripts.

“Stubborn”

They call me stubborn so often that I believed it.

And then I took a step back and realized that they were just the same.

I just, I really think its so hilarious that white people are 'oh so scared' of black people, like excuse you if anyone should be scared its them. They are the ones that lived in that state of fear under your oppression and brutality throughout most of history! They are the ones who should cross the street to avoid your racist ass! If you are scared of black people now, its because you are worried that theyre going to do to you and your people what youve already done and continue to do to theirs.

Can we please stop reblogging the found numbers and addresses of people who have said hateful/racist things on social media or elsewhere? Those people are in the wrong, but we bring ourselves to their level when you harass them and threaten and stalk them. Two wrongs don't make a right. Be the better person, people. Show that you're above them.
