Women aren't the problem. LEFTWING women are.

If the bible was inspired by God then why is everything in the bible written from the perspective of man and not from the perspective of God?

Several men wrote the bible.

So tell us what 'god' you put in place of the God of Abraham you don't believe in anymore. Because there is no such thing as a vacuum.

Well, in binary 1 + 10 = 11 . Close enough. I admire religious people. Sometimes they accomplish things that one would reasonably expect to fail.

Wow. Finally a voice of reason. I was feeling lonely in here.

"Most Americans are Saying They are Ready for a woman president".
Here's the story.
Most American Voters Say They'''re Ready For A Woman President: Survey

I'm fine with a woman as president, as long as it's a strong conservative woman, and there aren't quite enough of them to suit me. The problem we have is too many women that are leftwing and vote leftwing. By no means am I saying women should not be allowed to vote, but I will point out a few facts:

There has been a DEFINITE correlation between the spread of Marxism and women's suffrage. 1917 was when the Bolshevik Revolution started. 1920 was when women got the vote. Within a 12 years, pragmatism, hard choices, and holding the line on the economy after the stock market crash all went out the window. These are the things necessary to stand strong in the face of a recession or in the face of an aggressive adversary. Instead, we've softened as a country. Each financial crisis is met with a new set of Marxist policies. "Give people this. Give people that. Mollycoddle them. Make it easy for them. Nobody has to repay student loans. Nobody has to face competition. People can do whatever they want sexually. Don't send our kids off to fight an adversary."

The great journalist Rush Limbaugh refers to this as the "chickifacation of America". Today it manifests itself in the Marxist/feminist movement, where the goal of the Marxists is to soften America, remove all masculine ideals, such as war, competition, guns, even football. AT our public universities, it is now basically a crime to have a penis, unless you have had a fake one attached surgically. The #metoo garbage now says men are guilty until or even if proven innocent. Now killing little babies has been remade into 'women's rights'.

Parents can't cheer at children's sporting events now. Score can't be kept. Football is especially a target of the Marxist left. It has to be destroyed for several reasons 1) it's an American cultural icon, it embraces purely masculine values, it simulates war, and it involves competition and discipline. Democrats holding hearings on football concussions isn't an accident. The goal is to discourage parents from allowing their kids to play, and thus erode its popularity from the bottom up. Notice the only sport in which domestic abuse is discussed is football. The Marxist/feminist sport of choice? Global women's soccer where the ideal is a purple-haired lesbian.

The BIGGEST thing we could do to solve this problem is to pass a law that ELIMINATES all money from foreign donors, either directly or indirectly to candidates, news outlets, or activist organizations. This would solve the gigantic problem of George Soros hijacking our country into socialism, and pushing all this Marxist feminist trash.

That's classic. I rarely laugh out loud, thanks!

Yes, they do. The Vatican can claim to be a separate and sovereign country and have diplomatic immunity to transfer people outside the US to the Vatican to hide them.

Vatican City has an extradition treaty with the US. So if there are criminals there who did stuff in the US, they have to turn them over.

I don't believe in any gods because there is no evidence that a sentient creator has ever existed. Unlike you, I don't need a god to make sense of the world and survive. I'm not afraid of the world and I don't need an ancient book of plagiarized ideas and violence to have morals.

I'm a secular Humanist.

So tell us about your atheist belief? How did you arrive onto that without a shred of evidence?

Born, Baptized, Confirmed, LCMS.
Arrive at what? Men are fallible?

After all your claiming about fallible men, are you now claiming men are not fallible? Can you pick a point and stick to it?

The Vatican was also instrumental with hiding Nazis and helping them escape Europe to South America via ratlines after WW2, so don't hold your breath.

You added a zero that drastically changes the calculations. Can I add a zero before the decimal point to my bank balance when it is beneficial to me?
 
If one thinks about it carefully, there is a place for communist/socialist countries: A repository for unproductive people. Prosperous, capitalist countries need to make being unproductive so unbearable that such unproductive people will take their rightful place in communist countries.

That might be true if you don't understand either socialism or communism on even the most basic level.

Start with market socialism and learn.

Except when it is to the left of the decimal point. It is hilarious to watch you dance backward like Fred Astaire.
 
There's something to be said for the Cuban regime that can spend only on average $40 per month to keep unproductive people under control. Perhaps instead of being enemies with Cuba, we can make a deal to trade our people who can't function under capitalism for some of their people who can't function under socialism. If you want to learn about socialism, ask Venezuelans after they cross the Tachira River. If that's too far, I would recommend having some conversations at the Versailles Cafe in Miami.

Why do you assume that Cuba, Venezuela or Russia would be used as a model? Did you even bother to Wiki market socialism before you replied? As a libertarian, you might be very surprised at what you would learn.

It is very obvious that you could not discuss these economic ideas either the theory or practice in any reasonable way.
 
The USA is a capitalist country. Socialists should be in socialist countries. President Trump tried to explain that to Omar and Tlaib, but they can't be satisfied until they impose their socialist misery on others.

Did you bother to even learn the basic concepts of market socialism? There is nothing in the Constitution that mentions capitalism.

What is it that you are afraid of happening if we were a market socialist economy?

Donald Trump is far from a scholar so his views are irrelevant to intelligent debate.
