The disagreement isn't political -- it's moral. MAGA is truly godless: they are following a Daggjal (anti-Christ).

Of course it was. Unquestioning, unwavering support for Medïnat Ïsŗa‘el is the only truly bipartisan issue left in American politics. When opposing presidential candidates are on the same side of an issue, Ïsŗa‘el and/or Filasţɨn are at the heart of it.

In the modern era, we have been more materially prosperous & secure than at any other time in human history. But such enormous success has made us proud: we think we can dispense with the accumulated wisdom of our ancestors on proper care of the human soul. We are wrong, and the world is proving it.

If someone is glib and educated, their idiocy can take quite a while to reveal itself. I use this as a touchstone: “[Some people] think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices.” — attr. Bp. Wm. Fitzjames Oldham; in Zion’s Herald, 1906

MAGA churchgoers are telling their pastors that the Jesus (°s) of the Gospels sounds ‘woke’ and ‘weak’. Hard to get more anti-Christ (I John 2:18) than that. #MAGAisAntiChrist

You’re not following it to its conclusion. If I take your eye, you are justified to take one of mine. *BUT* — since you have now taken my eye, I can now take another of yours. And so on. It’s the logic of vendetta, not justice; and it does indeed result in a world of blind people.

Al-ħamdu li-Llähi r-Rabbi l°Alamïn — all praise to God, Lord of the Universe, for softening the hearts of the warmongers enough to permit these small kindnesses to continue.

For the time is coming when people will not put up with sound teaching, but, having their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander away to myths. - 2 Timothy 4:3-4

This disaster puts me in mind of the words of Jesus (°s): “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’” — Matthew 25:45

It sure would be a shame if this picture went viral

Yes Elon Musk, you can be both a Zionist and a Nazi

That actually lasted longer than I expected. Lä ħaula wa-lä qůuatah illa bi-Lläh (neither might nor deed but in God).

Astaghfirullah. God protect the journalists who risk their careers and lives to tell the truth about #GazaGenocide

This was always the plan:

If enough time passes, an otherwise healthy person can start to get used to sickness. They can slowly begin to convince themselves that almost any horrifying, toxic, painful, twisted reality is acceptable. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dont-gasli...

When the Ottomans did this to the Armenians during WW1, the West called it #genocide

It has been more profitable for us to bind together in the wrong direction than to be alone in the right one. Those who followed the assertive idiot rather than the introspective wise person passed us their genes. This is apparent from a social pathology: psychopaths rally followers. - Nassim Taleb

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about. -- Rumi

A solemn Martin Luther King day to you all. Here is a copy of a short work of Martin Luther King, that he wrote while sitting in an Alabaman jail. Please read if you have not before. It is short and won't take much of your time. www.africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Gen...

Spike knows ...

People are complicated, messy, and imperfect—just like you. Maybe the person who cut you off in traffic or snapped at the grocery store is having their worst day. Don’t match their energy; break the cycle.

We chase happiness like it’s something we lost, but maybe it’s been waiting for us to stop running.

"What ceasefire?"
