For me it’s a no brainer. What are the risks if any of putting your trust in God? People will always let you down, yet we still trust them. We even trust people that we have never seen or met sometimes. What do you have to loose by putting your faith in Jesus rather than in yourself and other people? This question is aimed specifically at non believers.

Seatbelts, shoelaces, knots, pent-up frustration, ...

Oh. You meant "lose".

Lots of things.

Years of wasted effort following a spiritual path that did not work for me.
Looking ridiculous in front of people trying to speak to a make-believe person, or speaking in a made-up language as if it were real. [lucky even christian me was careful not to do this around that many people]
All the money I gave as offerings [at least, the dollars that weren't spent on helping people].
Also, I think you know very well that most people don't have 100% faith in anyone, even themselves, and you're asking them to have 100% faith in Jesus. Having 100% faith in anything is suspect on the face of it. There should always be room for a little doubt. It's healthy.

@Anderssen
karma is merely a teacher
what have you learned this day?

This is an actual letter sent by the President of the United States to a foreign leader:


Let's work out a good deal! You don't want to be responsible for slaughtering thousands of
people. and 1 don't want to be responsible for destroying the Turkish economy - and I will. I've
already given you a little sample with respect to Pastor Bronson.

I have worked hard to solve some of your problems. Don't let the world down. You can make a
great deal. General Mazloum is willing to negotiate with you and he is willing to make
concessions that they would never have made in the past. I am confidentially enclosing a copy
of his letter to me, just received.

History will look, upon you favorably if you get this done the right and humane way. It will look
upon you forever as the devil if good things don't happen. Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a
fool!

I will call you later.

Sincerely,

No word whether the original was written in crayon or finger paint.

A very sad day.
He overcame incredible obstacles during his lifetime.
He was a stalwart defender of our Constitution.

He will be missed. 😞

Where to have it?
After thoughtful debate : one of Trump's golf courses.

The man is shameless.

@whodey said
Na, no need to wait. Everyone knows Trump is guilty of everything and the rest of the Federal government are a bunch of law abiding upright citizens.

You have branded Trump a "criminal" and a "Democrat plant."

Interesting quote from the lead prosecutor:

""Protecting the integrity of elections, and protecting our elections from unlawful foreign influence, are core functions of our campaign-finance laws,” Geoffrey Berman, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said at a press conference on Thursday."

Both of the accused had been subpoenaed to testify in front of the House impeachment inquiry on Thursday; they had a lunch with Rudy Guiliani on Wednesday and then a few hours later were arrested at an airport with one way tickets to Vienna. By an amazing coincidence, Rudy was going to Vienna, too:


"President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani reportedly planned to fly to Vienna, Austria, a day after his now-arrested associates attempted to travel to the city.

The Atlantic reported that it was unclear why Giuliani was traveling to Vienna, but that he had said he couldn't meet with one of the magazine's reporters on Thursday evening due to his expected travel.

Multiple news outlets reported that the Giuliani associates, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, were carrying one-way tickets to Vienna when they were arrested at Dulles International Airport in Virginia on Wednesday night."

BTW:

"Parnas said he met “many times” with the president over the past year but refused to talk about what they discussed. “I am not going to talk about my conversations with the president,” he said."

There's some nice pictures of Parnas and some others buddy-buddy with the Donald at the White House on May 1.

Very interesting.

Inmate at the asylum escapes and commits an assault.

Clever!

I see the "Quick Wit & Repartee" Correspondence course you took is paying off.

You don't think it has anything to do with them investigating the Bidens and the DNC in the Ukraine?

Innocent until proven guilty, right ?

@very-rusty said
Yes, actually it does if you re-read the joke, as the poster said if it has to be explained you just don't get it!

-VR

Well let's analyze the joke then, shall we?

The inmate of the asylum is 'nuts', they escape, they 'bolt' and then....They commit an assault, they 'screw'? What has this to do with slang terms for prison warders? If you don't have the wit to enter discussions, may I suggest that you don't enter them.
