The fed gov has no business owning land...the states should manage all property within their boundaries that isn't private property.

One thing's for sure...eric holder won't git him!

Why not is because of the "he or she" thing.

Just a few verses of what God's view of that "walnut" may be.
 
Jeremiah 1:5  “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
 
Psalm 139:13-14 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
 
Isaiah 49:1  Listen to me, O coastlands, and give attention, you peoples from afar. The Lord called me from the womb, from the body of my mother he named my name.
 

I believe homosexuality is a sin, but God gave us all free will. So denying homosexuals the right to sin as they wish is trying to take away what God gave us. All we can do is be there for them, pray for them, and maybe try taking them to church? Instead of condemning them we should show them the love of Jesus Christ and hopefully once they accept him as their lord and savior they will choose to repent.

Simply being a Republican would carry no weight towards suppressing aggressive behavior...it would have to be backed up by actions.
 
I do think that Muammar Gaddafi, who was the bad boy of the 80s, shut his piehole and changed course after Reagan hit him in 1986.  If that would not have happened, I believe he would have continued down the path he was on.
 
So yes, I believe projecting a strong presence, and the bad guys knowing you are serious, works.

Didn't some hostages get released when Reagan became President?

And you and NOTB rest easy knowing that I've never and will never discuss my world views in front of the kids!!!

I agree, I get a feeling you are very dedicated to the kids and their learning...but please don't ever dress like a woman in front of them!   :D
 
BTW, I know several teachers that teach younger kids and every one of them spends a good deal of their money on supplies for their kids.
 
The kids could probably make do without but they choose not for them to.

Why should anyone have to remove their child so a transgender teacher can stay?

If she/he is really in this for the kids, they should find an ISD that is accepting of them...I'm sure they're out there.

Comparing African American civil rights to rights for a cross dressing transgender...now that is radical.
 
But, hey...your side won on this one, and I have no doubt we'll see more and more perverted behavior accepted in the future.
 
When it gets to a line that even you don't want to see crossed, just remember you asked for it.

Agree...probably nothing more than a couple of rogue House Oversight Committee members.

The big deal is this isn't something that the fed gov should even have on their radar.  Billions of dollars are wasted by this massive bloated fed gov because they feel they should oversee and regulate every area of our lives...and staff up to do just that.
 
And it will continue because there are many like yourself that go "what's the big deal?"  Let them go ahead and do it.
 
I feel most states are very capable to decide what type of wood stove can be sold or how many gallons of water a toilet flushes.
 
The fed gov has a very short list of responsibilities as stated in the Constitution for a good reason.

I wonder when the administration will start regulating volcanos?

Just a few verses of what God's view of that "walnut" may be.

Voluntary... a scary word when used in any new government program.

One leads to the other...if you like your health care plan, you can keep it.

Hmmm... that sounds like you only have to participate in obamacare if you volunteer.

We sure have "progressed" since Leave it to Beaver aired.
 
 
 
From the article:
 
In the first ever episode of "Leave it to Beaver," Wally and the Beaver set out to buy a pet alligator. "We were going to put it in the toilet because we knew alligators needed water," Mathers said. "At that time, you not only couldn't show a toilet, you couldn't show a bathroom on television. It was prohibited."

And your viewpoint hasn't been tolerated...that's why we are on here...to discuss.   
 
All the same opinions would be awful boring.
 
When I refer to the intolerant left, it ain't you I'm talking about.

From the article:
 
In a heated exchange over whether he and his tax agency employees are cooperating in Congress’s investigations into tea party targeting, Mr. Koskinen said the amount of time it will take to look through and redact private information from the documents could last years.
 
 
“What they want is something that’s going to take years to produce,” he told the House Oversight Committee, which six months ago issued a subpoena for Ms. Lerner’s emails because the IRS wasn’t acting quickly enough.
 
 
Years...really?  This statement is proof that this administration is terribly inefficient or terribly corrupt...or both.   YEARS???  smh
 

To go a little further;
 
 Romans 1:32
32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
 
I also think this can be interpreted as Christians that approve of such practices.
 
Too much focus is on the homosexual lifestyle. What I (and other Christians) should be concerned with is what God thinks of me supporting or rejecting, being vocal or being silent, being critical or compassionate about homosexuality or any other sinful acts.
 
Yes, homosexuality is different because we have a political agenda promoting acceptance and lifestyle equality. We are not to be accepting (referring back to Romans 1:32) Nor should we be hostile and insulting.

You can say that as many times as you want but it is not true.
 
You admit it is a sin and you still believe that God would create someone to be destined for a life of sinful behavior...think about it, makes no sense.

I agree with both westend1 and mat...English while in the classroom and their choice on their time.

Don't forget evolution is simply a theory, not proven scientific fact.
 
Take some slime, frogs, whatever and add billions of years and BAM ...you have humans.
 
Myself, I like the version that we were created in God's image.   :)
