How do you know right from wrong? Is it just by how you feel? I've already said that a person can love evil just as much as they can love good. You say I've written off 90+ percent of humans who have ever lived--I'll go farther than that. We're all lost without God as our moral guide.

"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts".
--Isaiah 55:9

There is not one good human being who breathes, except Jesus.

OK, then call them The Rainbow Church of Humanist Progressive Cultural Marxism, which of course is Godless.

They are zealous evangelists for their religion.

‘Those who say they don’t need to Bible because they have an inner sense of right and wrong are just being fooled.’

The bible has already stated:

Genesis 3:22

Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil...

But not necessarily the difference between. If we were just born with it, and never lost it, why did God feel we need a written Word, 10 commandments, or the prophets? Knowledge and wisdom are acquired things.

80% spot on but wtf does Democrat pro secession 1860 have to do with crazy liberals today aside from same party name ...and that’s about it....name

I don’t think pro secessionist Democrats of 1860 were known for being emotive....radical republicans from New England were the do-gooders of that era

The descendants of slave holders in the south today tend to be anything but Democrats by a wide margin

And have nothing in common with them aside from DNA, geography and social conservatism relative to the era

I don’t see John C Calhoun as a proponent of transgender rights but maybe I’m missing something about old John C

I doubt democrats feel squat about slavery except as an issue to exploit race politics but GOPe does that too

Aside from talk radio logic stumble Rachel did well...

I guess it might be the choice thing.

You can’t define or explain liberal emotion because it is actually delusion.
There is no truth in delusion.

Satan is the father of lies, lies are delusion, and liberals are under the thumb of Satan.

Liberals exist in the circle of the blind exploiting the blind and they accept it...even comforting and congratulating themselves in it.

Delusion.

See? I tried....

Yep, It is a choice.

Similarly, liberals oppose capital punishment because they feel sorry for the criminals being executed.

All of these examples aren't driven by "feeling sorry" for one group or another - although that may be advertised as the reason to attract the gullible to the cause. No, they are pushed because the Left knows that by preventing justice from being done they weaken Western society, and make it easier for their side to eventually seize total power.

I have posted online a variation of the following many times
when faced with a hate-filled hyper-emotional individual.
It would be easy to insult and belittle them
but I try to bring people together rather than adding to or inflaming the hate.

‘Hatred is not conducive to rational thought.
Aim for that sweet spot where emotion is balanced by reason.
You’ll be happier and healthier and your comments will reflect it.
They will be constructive and helpful not divisive and derisive.
Have a Nice Evening.’
