    Things that Jesus never actually said. (But most people thought he did)

    "The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,” says the LORD." Isa. 65:25.

    Things that Jesus never actually said. (But most people thought he did)

    The principle reason for the 70 AD earliest date limit some people put on the Gospels is that Jesus clearly talks, in a prophecy, about the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. The thinking is, "since there can't really be accurate prophecy, the writers of the Gospels must have known about the...

    Things that Jesus never actually said. (But most people thought he did)

    You're absolutely right about "judge not..." and "blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth". He didn't say the one about the lion lying down with the lamb. That's not even in the Bible, although there's some similar language. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is...

    What should the judge do to stop Trump from mumbling under his breathe to prospective jurors?

    Probably not. But evidence of crime doesn't rely on what you or I imagine. Something a bit more tangible is needed. Again, if there is actual evidence of any threat to jurors, there are serious and specific charges that can and SHOULD be brought against him. Until such evidence emerges, his...

    Listen to Karen McDougal describe her affair with Trump (who had recently married Melania) and the "cash" he offered her after sex

    That may be so. Nonetheless I disapprove, and I see it as evidence of poor character. It's by no means the only thing I would consider in judging whether a candidate deserves my support, nor is it the most important thing. But it's a thing.

    What should the judge do to stop Trump from mumbling under his breathe to prospective jurors?

    If there's evidence that he has actually threatened jurors, new charges should be brought on that basis. From what I've read, it's about mumbling under his breath. It's not at all obvious that constitutes a threat. But it is disruptive behavior, and he has been warned to stop. I don't think the...

    What should the judge do to stop Trump from mumbling under his breathe to prospective jurors?

    Yes. I remember when some of the Chicago Seven were bound and gagged in the courtroom during their trials. Trump has been warned to stop this, and any repetition of it is contempt of court, which should trigger suitable penalties.

    Florida joins Texas in banning local heat protections for outdoor workers. For all the GOP leadership cares you can drop dead from the heat. Pro life.

    Judging from the link provided, there has not been any "banning" of water breaks. The logic offered is that the states don't want local authorities to exceed the requirements set on a state level, as a couple of posters have pointed out. The question then becomes "why not?" It's not at all...

    You realize that according to what Bongsaway posted above, this makes you a "Trumpster"? LOL.

    Sure. I'll certainly go on asking for links when OP's referring to a specific story don't include them. Linking to the story you're talking about is the standard practice here, and the reasons for it are obvious. Several other posters on this thread pointed that out. Why you consider this...

    Florida joins Texas in banning local heat protections for outdoor workers. For all the GOP leadership cares you can drop dead from the heat. Pro life.

    For the reasons I explained, when a poster is referring to a story, it's convenient to be able to see the exact story they are referring to. The simplest way to find that is to ask the poster to link to the story. Both you and the OP seem to think there is something wrong with asking that, for...

    That is untrue. https://www.congress.gov/105/bills/hres611/BILLS-105hres611enr.pdf

    It's hard to believe that this needs pointing out, but... If you do a Google search on something, all kinds of results come up. Any one of them might be the news source that the OP is referring to. I think that posting a link so that everyone can see the same information is a reasonable thing...

    OK. I still like to see the source being referred to in a thread like this.
