Texas repubs go full MAGA at it's convention

[Sunsettommy]

God doesn't care about your secular delusions. There is a judgment day, and people will be cast in to Hell because there is no place in God's Kingdom for sin. If you aren't covered in the righteousness of Christ you will be cast in to utter darkness into the eternal lake of fire forever separated from God and forever forgotten.

No, it isn't a delusion since America is a SECULAR nation (Earth based) run by human beings while Christain Religion runs on a set of teachings for people wanting to follow Jesus to a new place (heaven) where it is ruled by the Father and the son.

Your religious based hate isn't good for anyone. I can't follow a god who punish anyone forever on a few decades of a built in sin infected life they INHERITED from their ancestors according to your religious ideology.

Texas GOP goes full MAGA at 2022 convention

The revised platform is likely to preview some of the GOP's messaging going into the November midterms and 2024 election.

Well...how about that.

You're flying the flag of a country where being gay is illegal.

All if favor of secession, raise your hand.

Some people feel that in the coming decades, a harmonious divorce is the only solution to the divisiveness that is making political life so unpleasant.

If some people feel that gay relations should be illegal, fine!
If some people feel that gay relations are none of their business, fine!

If some people want to repeal the civil rights laws, fine!
If some people feel civil rights laws are needed, fine!

There's a lot of land between the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans.

People should be able to live in an area where like-minded people also live.


So woke leftists can live in, say, New York.

And ultra rightists can live in, say, Texas.

This can be a confederation of various independent safe zones.

No where in our Constitution does it say our nation is Secular. The opposite is said. Our rights come from Our Creator. In fact our Fore Fathers said that if individuals did not restrain themselves with morality and religion that they could not be free and would have to be ruled by TYRANTS!

No, you are deluded. Homosexuality is an abomination. People who condone it will be punished along with those that commit it. God especially will harshly judge the Alphabet Groomer Pedo Lobby who want to morally and sexually corrupt our children and make them in to their personal sex toys.

Shame on all of you. I think God will start with California. What do you think?

2nd Thessalonians 2:

9 The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder, 10 and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them. 11For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie, 12 in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.

Yep. And Jim Crow = Democrats

Back then....yes. Today? No....

They should move to California. God appears to be punishing the "Geigh State" fairly harshly these days. Maybe they should repent instead of drying up and burn or be blown away like what you see happening over there now.

Nope...we are a secular country under a written Constitution. Keep your Russian theocracy to yourself, Comrade.

Has nothing to do with your Satanic Party promoting immorality, homosexuality atheism and secularism and how you will be judged for that and your many sins and be cast in to Hell where you and your Groomercrat compatriots belong.

The Earth will be swept clean of the likes of you when that day comes and The Universe will rejoice at your demise.

 

[CowboyTed]

What a dumb plank they are proposing,

"If approved, the new party platform would include declaring homosexuality “an abnormal lifestyle choice," repealing the 16th Amendment that created the federal income tax, and mandating that Texas students "learn about the humanity of the preborn child,” in part by forcing students to listen to ultrasounds of gestating fetuses."

They should leave Homosexuals alone. Forcing students to absorb political propaganda is stupid. Repealing the 16th amendment is too late too much rides on it have to reduce the impacts first.

"Attendees also voted on a measure urging "lawmakers to enact legislation to abolish abortion by immediately securing the right to life and equal proaction of the laws to all preborn children from the moment of fertilization,"

Abortion compromise is the only possible solution otherwise it will go on and on and on.

"The platform also calls for the abolishment of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, opposes efforts to classify carbon dioxide as a pollutant, and supports prayer "being returned to our schools, courthouses, and other government buildings."

The voting rights were installed to stop the KKK and democrats in general from screwing over the rights of black Americans to vote which is why it must stay where it is.

Prayer was banned in secular areas by SCOTUS in 1962 for a good reason can pray everywhere else including right on the schoolgrounds between classes or before and after school at home in parks, churches and so on.

This is why I could never join the Republicans are they are too extreme as the Democrats long have been better to be an Independent Free Thinker.

"securing the right to life and equal proaction of the laws to all preborn children from the moment of fertilization,"

This effectively bans IVF and many other fertility treatments.... So will they call IVF babies, murder babies as there was at least 4 murders for every one birth...

IVF treatment faces âclear and present dangerâ from US anti-abortion effort

Warning from reproductive rights advocate comes as US states pass or debate legislation that would give full rights to embryos

The existence of the Constitution is why it is a Secular based nation where it is a nation based on laws made by a lot of Deists who wanted to keep Religion separate from government avoiding the Theocratic based governments Europe were largely composed of at the time.

Deism and the Founding of the United States

Excerpt:

In recent decades, the role of deism in the American founding has become highly charged. Evangelical and/or “traditional” Protestants have claimed that Christianity was central to the early history of the United States and that the nation was founded on Judeo-Christian principles. They point to the use of prayer in Congress, national days of prayer and thanksgiving and the invocation of God as the source of our “unalienable rights” in the Declaration of Independence. Secularists respond that large fractions of the principal founding fathers were not Christians at all but deists and the American founding was established on secular foundations. Their principal evidence is the strict separation of church and state they find embedded in the first amendment. They further cite the utter absence of biblical references in our principal founding documents and note that the God of the Declaration of Independence is not described in a scriptural idiom as “God the Father” but instead in deistic terms as a “Creator” and “supreme judge of the world.” Although both sides have some evidence, neither is persuasive. Ultimately, the role of deism in the American founding is just too complex to force into such simplistic formulas.

Deism

Deism or “the religion of nature” was a form of rational theology that emerged among “freethinking” Europeans in the 17th and 18th centuries. Deists insisted that religious truth should be subject to the authority of human reason rather than divine revelation. Consequently, they denied that the Bible was the revealed word of God and rejected scripture as a source of religious doctrine.

Amendment I​

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

===

The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

=====

That statement is clearly Secular as state religion was prohibited.

The Founding Fathers wanted to keep religion out of the government while affirming all the people have the right to be religious.

You can't ignore the history behind it.

The conversation, you Godless Moron is not about State Religion. Religious people have Full Rights Endowed by Their Creator to participate in The Government and this means enacting Moral Laws for the Benefit of Society for the well being and health of their community which includes moral and ethical standards, regulations and laws. This is why a State can restrict Abortion or Deny Two Sodomites from Being Married, or write Laws against Adultery, Child Abuse, or against abuse and neglect of children and even animals based on religious principles.

Without Moral and Religious Standards and the concept that Our Rights are Endowed by Our Creator and are inalienable, we would look like Sodom and Gomorrah which is exactly what The Satanic Left would like to see happen.

Now go admire some hairy man ass. We aren't buying your revisionist history bullshit like Obama and his Evil Minions tried to sell America. Groomercrats will meet their doom on judgment day. I suggest you do not find yourself counted among them.

Clan = Democrats

Except the Democrats didn't just put revoking the CRA into their platform. That's Wallace Klan shit.

Keep ignoring the first amendment embarrassing one,

Amendment I​

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Congress is a secular body being prohibited in limiting religious rights of the people or establishing one.
