    Yes, God created all things. (Gen 1:1) And JW's go by that Scripture
    and all like it. (Titus 3:1)

    I am still agog over the idea that there is an eternal and
    all powerful entity that can create universes yet is so
    egocentric it demands to be worshiped and has approval over
    my sex life.

    There are limits to my gullibility and this blows a long way
    past them.
    --


    Every person in the US is here either
    legally or illegally. Those that are
    here illegally should be afraid.
    Be very afraid. It does not matter
    how long you have been here. It does
    not matter why you are here. It does not
    matter what you have done legally while you
    were here. It does not matter what any
    relative may have done while you were here.
    It only matters that you are here illegally.
    It may take a day, a week, a year, or longer
    but we will find you and we will deport you.
    Be prepared.

    Deport them all.

    Due process:
    Q. Are you here legally? If so, where is
    the documentation to establish that?


    All politicians are trained to lie
    and make those lies sound like
    the truth. They start with the biggest
    lie of all: Politicians are public
    servants.

    National Socialist American Workers Party
    (NSAWP) formally known as the Democrat Party

    Some of the Republican positions I find disgusting
    and abhorrent.
    Most of the Democratic positions I find terrifying.

    I support:

    A Constitional Amendment establishing
    the Freedom of Choice.

    The elimination of public expression,
    display or support of religion or
    religious positions.

    As you pointed out above, Paul was referring to the Mosaic Law in
    Galatians, but not in Romans. Not the same thing.
