@Chris Willx, Since you didn't know what the ''Knights of Columbus'' is all about and never heard of it. This is what it is about--The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic fraternal organization that focuses on charity, education, religion, and social welfare. The organization's mission is to help Catholic men live their faith in their community, parish, workplace and home. When I was a young child we had one of the ''Knights of Columbus'' in our Italian neighborhood. Friends, parents, neighbors could rent out their hall for the people who where having a wedding, or any occasion that was of the day. It is a very respected organization, it's been around for years. Mostly in Italian/American neighborhoods in New York City and the surrounding boroughs. I hope this helps you now know what ''The Knights of Columbus'' is all about.

[@kathleenhensley5951]

Definitely... it also helps us control our egos, which can be inflated to the point that they will burst like a balloon which can destroy a person. Part of sanity is understanding ourselves, including, our place in the scheme of the universe. It is healthy to understand we are just small dots of matter in a huge universe. We aren't gods, we are barely civilized. Christianity is a wonderful religion because it reminds us to be humble before God and his creation. Yes, don't hate ourselves but keep our egos in check, also. Balance.

[@brentruss2168]

I thought the indisputable fact that we are all children of God with God's last name so we know our loving Parents (God) will hold us accountable to our siblings eventually if they petition God, just like every other family, was sufficient evidence to rely upon without religion, that we should respect the rights of other children of God. Then there is the Luciferian Cult, which spreads the absolute lie that children of God can perform a magical ritual to absolve themselves of all accountability (ie. Jesus pays, not me), thereby creating a clique of sociopaths who think they are sovereign citizens before God without any accountability. Seems like everyone should dump their political and religious cults and just accept the indisputable truth of God's(Creator's) family. Perhaps people prefer other cults instead, which is sad.

The republican and democrat political cults are not moral, they have already committed crimes against me because I practice the same religion as George Washington, and they are still oppressing the practice of our religion by enforcing victimless laws/codes. They will all see us before God at judgment for violating a host of state and federal felonies against me and many others. Not even Jesus would spit in our faces and deny millions of us justice, and at this point I demand Hell be paid in full for lack of guilt/remorse.

Don't be too drawn to the nice words or political dogma of any one party. Obviously you know that what matters most of all - is money. Even to Trump. It all comes down to the necessary evil, the economy. So although people appear different, one of the largest elements of American security is what? The arms complex. The mighty Blackrock group. And otherwise. To a large extent they can frustrate or stop most of the things they don't want Trump to do. Because they are global - they can just 'wait out' his Presidency if they need to. What I am saying is that this [war] of ideology is just beginning and will be massively influenced as all wars are, by Cash. Therefore think more reasonably. Part of Tulsi believes some of the things she says. Hopefully thats most. But she won't be ignorant of the above and they can only do - what they can afford. So she went where the power and success is, not just where she agrees or doesn't. The Democratic Party have a centuries long history of the same nonsense. As people like her have said at times, it was the slavery party. Whilst she also said that the Republicans were the opposite. So she is selling you some of what you want to hear. Part of that is just part of the job. Towing the party line. Don't get too attached to personalities. I know its hard. But side with yourself.

How can two countries with pretty much the same breakdown in religious beliefs have such a huge difference in their “freedom”? Religiosity and the freedom of people have nothing to do with each other.

In the Book of Daniel, in the revelatory 12th chapter, the author has a question for JEHOVAH God. He wants to know, from the One Who Lives Forever, when will the end of the current age be, and Jehovah's people will be with their Savior, The Messiah, who we now know is Jesus of Nazareth, King Immanuel. And He replies with the following timeline, which is anchored in two events of Jewish history. From the ending of the daily sacrifices in the Temple in Jerusalem, in mid-March of 597 B.C. when the Babylonians won their siege, until the setting up of the Abomination that makes desolate, there would be a passage of '1290 days', which we can see, from Jehovah's counting of a day for a year, to be 1290 years. Truly enough, in 688 A.D. the Mohammedans, began the construction of The Dome of the Rock, over the spot on which Abraham was going to sacrifice his only Messianic son, Isaac. In order to decide when this structure is 'set up', so we can know the beginning of the '1335 days', it could be a matter of looking at the year in which this structure was completed, not the year of the foundation laying; however none of the builders seemed to be concerned with accurate record-keeping, the way that Jehovah is. But then Jesus states that he who waits on The King's coming and is truly blessed, will enjoy His coming at the end of these 1335 years. We are led to believe, as the Apostle Paul wrote, that the Dead in Christ shall arise from their graves, then the Believers who are still living at that time on the Earth shall be taken up into the air to be with The Lord.

ya know, if people actually read the constitution and all of the old politician journals that were our forefather's, they generally believed in a government needing to be religious openly, most of them were more traditional than people want to adhere to today in pop culture writing. if you read history, you'll come to realize very quickly how fast an empire falls to secularism. the reason why our forefathers accepted that they didn't want religion and state to be unified, is because they explicitly left england because they didnt want to follow the english forced doctrination, so they didnt want to inforce such control on others. However that being said, Thomas Jefferson was a staunch deist which is basically just cowardly atheism, made the quote to seperate church from state. Thomas was just one man of many, and most of the men in the government were religious. Let alone the fact that english and most of europe was stuck in its oppressive ways. the new america was bold and original in trying to establish some kind of form of freedom from a king or queen of some sort. but the reality is, i dont care about religion and state forming or never forming, I dont care as long as people can still be themselves as long as its mature and respectful to one another with dignity as a human being. Ive found myself being less and less of a patriot in the last few months simply because my faith in a clearly human social construct that isnt claiming to be divine is entirely without hope for a purity that is also lacking in spirit. America will fall someday, scholars believe this easily, historically and scientifically. I would argue the government shouldnt be utterly secular to the point of being neutral on morals. because morals afterall derive from religious and deep story telling spiritual influence. If the government had 0 theological ideas ingrained in its sediment, youre better off tossing the whole thing in the fire for what its worth, because most post modernists dont want to accept that every nation that abandoned its god/s fell to pieces not long after due to a lack of harmony and morals in the culture. post-modernists like to think morality and ethics, sin, good deeds, and our thoughts dont come from anywhere but themselves randomly as if its a personal experience of being blind and scribbling circles of blue and red on paper unsure what color youre using at the moment.

Quick correction: William Tyndall was the first to translate the Bible into english (with some pivotal error), but he was persecuted for heresy. Not because he printed the Bible in a common language. The Catholics printed the Bible in Latin because that was the language of the church and the educated for a thousand years. Most people couldn’t read so it’s not like many had the option unless they learned Latin. But the authority was square with the church which I think is Williamson’s point.

[@Nrev973]

Oh sorry here’s another add-on. The relationship between the Bible and the common reader did not become completely decentralized, because the Anglican church also had priest to read the Bible because the literacy rates were about 25% for men and 10% for women.

I've been a Christian for 40 years. I haven't set foot in a Christian church in over 20 years. The "church" is the worldwide body of believers, it's not a building or an organization.

[@weecharlie01]

The organisation is called the Knights of St. Columba ( Irish Missionary) not “Columbus” (Italian Explorer).

[@gordonepema722]

Tulsi Gabbard is very good at describing the fatal (hopefully) conceit of the Democrats. Must be because she was well inside the party at one time and got to observe the slime first hand. That she got out of it is a credit to her character and her brains - those who see the slime and stay are why the world is where it is now.

[@cur244]

Nah the most religious part of the country is the bible belt. The least religious part of the country are the New England states which have the lowest crime. The highest crime race is the most religious. The idea that religion helps is the biggest myth on the planet. People need to wake up that it doesn't make people better. Works the same way in other countries. Japan is one of the least religious countries and has a much lower crime rate than the US.

It is a bad argument. The founding fathers based the US Constitution on Judea Christian values.. It is because of biblical values we protect the liberty of all and welfare of all with different religions. The foundation of democracy is based on biblical values.

It is a bad argument that church should be separated from state. Church should be the prophetic voice of the govt. Slave trade was abolished through politics in 1807 because Christian's put their faith in action and the church supported it.

[@ToxiCisty]

Hollywood productions/media/education system is highly influenced by the DNC, how far can you go before it’s manufactured consent to abandon God. Of course free will is free will, but media and our education system aren’t “secular”, rather anti faith and religion, specifically Christianity as it is the most widely adopted religion amongst Americans. The moral code must be demolished to destroy principles that would make manipulation and indoctrination harder to implement.

This bit about William Tyndale is untrue, he wasn't persecuted for translating the Scriptures to the Vernacular as many Scriptures already existed in the Vernacular languages at the time. He was persecuted because he wasn't authorized to, he was a Priest serving the Catholic Church at the time so he needed authorization, he was also all over the place theologically.
