    Scott- Don't beat yourself up over it. I'm sure we have all done something that we are not happy about and guilt over because we are decent people who understand the difference between right and wrong (I am in that group too). If it makes you feel any better- I'm sure that working in the coal industry was not listed in the Ten Commandments and I have never have heard it written that thou shalt not work in or with coal. 
    Repenting is the best thing we have done to bring ourselves closer to our Heavenly Father, and He has said that He will no longer remember the sin and our souls are wiped clean. 
    I have to keep reminding myself of that when Satan pops those thoughts and reminders of things I have done in the past that I was not proud of.... trying to make me miserable and feel unworthy........ but remembering the things the Lord has said just pops those thoughts and regrets out of my mind. I am so thankful for that. 
    Off subject here...... sorry folks.... but if I start in on politics and the mess it has all caused family, friends and the nation..... I'll just start crying again.

    Al Gore did not accept defeat in his election until the Supreme Court ruled against him...
    Following the example set by the Democrats in contested elections we should expect Republicans (including Trump) to do the same..
    It is a high level hypocrisy try to force someone else to a higher standard then one is willing to live themselves.
     
     
    The courts will make the call if the allegations are truly baseless and absurd... Rather then those of us in the peanut gallery.
    And I kind of hope they are.  If we think that our votes are truly important and necessary then they need to be treated that way by our elected officials. There should not be been any kind of scandals or hints of wrong doing in the voting process.  If there are then heads need to roll and be held accountable.  It is not like this kind of dive into the voting process is in any way a surprise or unexpected.

    Claims of Voter Fraud are serious claims.
    Serious claims begin with serious accusations.
    Serious accusations need to be taken seriously no matter what we might think of the accuser.
    Burden of proof lies with the accuser, but they need to be allowed to gather and put forth their proof and not just dismissed.
    What ever evidence is put forth then need to be evaluated based strictly on the power of the evidence.
    We are in the accusation and evidence gathering phase, now.
     
    The real tragedy of this whole thing is... Trump called his shot months ago.  Had the 'Powers that Be' being paying attention they could have take steps to secure the election from this claim, yet they did not.  Thus I have no sympathies for those complaining about his actions now when they literally had months to prevent it.

    I'm going to say this and it isn't meant to be sarcastic. I know it's hard for the president to accept defeat, but he lost (the history professor was right after all). When the counting is over, it's time for the president to call for unity and leave the White House with his head up and dignity. His rants on social media, his baseless allegations are both sad and borderline absurd at this point. I hope someone can actually reason with him because I don't believe this is the way he wants to be remembered when he leaves the oval office (hopefully, willingly!).
    Perhaps, agree with his own opinion? (this tweet is real).

    It is sad to me to see the great state of Arizona has been turned blue mostly now in my opinion.  They ruined California with their voting and now they move to Arizona and vote for Democrats.  Why did you leave California if it was so bad to vote the same beast in?  I left California and New York for liberty and I vote accordingly.

    Having lived through manly elections - what I find curious is the extremes claimed to hinge an election.  Whatever the change is (if anything), the  election is a symptom not a cause.  Which cause is already long happening.  Usually something previously passed and bringing such disappointment that it changes the next election.   The best way to dispel a political notion or party is to vote it or them into power.  The sad thing is that seldom is anything undone by and election - just new stuff stacked up on all the old stuff.  But be of good cheer - this will all end when the Messiah comes.

    I agree with you to a degree Traveler, but it seems that the party elites are the big problem for the Democratic Party. I think the citizens  of our country have chosen a side that they agree with, and the best talking points that they hear. I choose the Republican Party because they stand for more of what I believe in than the Dems do.  And it's not the same Democratic Party as it used to be, it has grown to incorporate a lot more immoral, unjust and to be frank.... scary ideals.. My dad was a Democrat all his life, we had numerous talks and mini debates about politics and he enjoyed our little political chats. I learned a lot from them also. 
    After Obama was elected, the people I know who did not vote for him didn't riot, didn't destroy, loot or maim. We would have rather he not have won, but figured that the Lord had a purpose for putting him in office. After Trump won in 2016, chaos broke out and the liberals went nuts. And that is what they are planning to do again if Trump wins another term in office. They have vowed to create mayhem worse than before. Where if Biden wins.... we will go to work and know that God has a plan. I don't foresee any riots, looting or destruction because things might not turn out the way the Republicans wanted.       
    And I think that our nation will become more subject to chaos due to the last days prior to the Second Coming, with those who have sided with the minions of Satan because things didn't turn out their way, and they need to riot, destroy and hurt someone to prove how pathetic they are. Satan will use whoever he can to create chaos and mayhem.

    To quote from this:
    Halt here means limping and is a different and much older word to the one meaning to stop (which was originally a German military term of the late sixteenth century). It has long been archaic. We know it today almost exclusively in the set phrases the halt and the lame and the halt, the lame and the blind, though we do retain halting in phrases such as halting speech, where it means slow and hesitant.

    Actually, if you follow the context of the thread, it was the media that was lying to us. And they still do.
    Just recently, they spread the lie that a medication that Trump took to treat COVID was experimental and extremely dangerous. So, Trump's condition had to be severe for them to risk that.Turns out that it has been around a long time and is used to treat a whole host of conditions from mild asthma to severe pneumonia.
    Yes, the media lies to us all the time.
    I'm not sure what you're referring to here.  But, yes, the media always lies in favor of liberal politicians and against conservative ones.  If people simply stopped listening to the media and researched stuff from independents then we'd have a much more conservative government and people.

    BINGO!
    The mainstream media makes it so easy for people to become and remain 'low information voters'. The Left leaning mainstream media spoon-feeds people their same biased talking points and many folks, being generally lazy, take it at face value. They never bother to dig any deeper, learn more for themselves or investigate the other side of the story = hence 'low information voter'.
    The far left loves 'low information voters'. They typically play to their emotions only.
    Ex. "Trump is a racist!!!"
    Most people strongly oppose racism. All the mainstream media needs to do is call Trump a racist over and over and over again... low information voters then believe he actually is a racist and thus oppose him.  Trump has repeatedly denounced white supremacist, yet the media repeatedly demands he do it again and again as evidenced once more in the last debate. 

    Low information voters don't dig any further. Just like rioters that spawn up 'immediately' after an event. They don't dig, they don't wait for facts to be heard first... 100% emotional low information driven.
