“””“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”

The Left has long considered Bonhoeffer one of their heroes, and that the orange man is Hitler. The Right latched onto him after Eric Metaxas wrote a book about him. Look into Metaxas.

Right...left. The truth is the truth. I don’t care who speaks it.

We play the derp game when we attack the messenger and ignore the truth.

#TruthIsWhatMatters”””


We are derps to believe “truth’ and don’t research what the messenger says is truth.

Look deeply into Bonhoeffer’s time spent in Harlem and Union Theological Seminary in NYC.

UTS was the birthplace of Black Liberation Theology, Feminista theology, and IIRC Meurijsta (sic? - Hispanic)) Theology, leaven which has entered the churches and led us to the point in history we are today.

Bonhoeffer left NYC to return to Germany where he was involved in a plot to kill Hitler, for which he received the death penalty. No doubt he felt justified.

If the Left acts out Bonhoeffer’s truth and takes out orange man, I’m sure they’ll feel just as justified while thinking they are doing God a favor.

The Left is killing babies every day. Maybe we should Bonhoeffer them?

Interesting ideas to consider. And a danger.

Don't worry, haffast, I won't make a hero out of this guy. I don't give two effs about him.

It's the words that matter. No research required, which is my point.

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”

Can you find anything false in that statement?

I can't.

p.s. The derps think we are evil. I think they are evil. Only one of us is right.

Luke (12:1-3): “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
