Did you forget what good news is?

This ain't it.

Of course it is.  It shows that Trump hasn't managed to bully and intimidate a lot of former officials from across the political spectrum.  Influential people still support American values and the Constitution..

That is good news, no matter which aisle you hang out in.

Yep. It's also good news that some Southern cities have started removing Confederate statues and some of the mayors responsible are finally countering the asinine argument that they need to stay up to 'preserve the history' of the civil war. Statues aren't about preserving history, they're about celebrating the roles of the people depicted. 

Like, no-one ever claimed the War of Independence was in danger of being forgotten because there isn't a statue of George III in front of the Capitol.

We just had a protest march down our street, right past the house. I'd guess about 1,000 people, black, brown and white. Noisy, but peaceful.  Even the cops were smiling and no riot gear anywhere to be seen.  Social distancing too!

Those two are mutually exclusive.

You can rebel against the country or support it.

You don't get to do both.

Not at all surprised you don't get that.

Down here American Patriot and Rebel are synonymous. You do not understand our culture.

There is no misunderstanding that the riots and violence across our nation, leaders in several cities seeking to defund and/or disband the police, the conflict in Washington DC as to whether to defend the White House against attack are signs that SHTF is getting closer to full scale manifestation.

The Bible tells us that anarchy will continue and worsen. 

The good news, the best news possible, is that true believing, not make believe, Christians will not be here to experience the predetermined chaos and blood shed. 

Jesus Christ will call the dead in Christ first and then the living in Christ up into the heavens with Him.

Think about what life will be like here on earth the day after the Rapture. The Holy Spirit will be removed and total lawlessness will prevail.

Seek the Good News, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 
It requires a change of heart, not an intellectual rationalization.

May you find Him...SOON!

Your church must be very happy.

Again, cultural relativity out weighs intellect.

That is one of the most asinine views and a cheap cop out that Christians use to avoid thinking or using critical thinking.

It is one thing to have a low IQ and struggle to understand things, those people have my sympathy. It is quite another thing to choose to be stupid and intellectually lazy

Up here, too.  A lot of rebels are in the streets fighting for their First Amendment rights.

Thanks for understanding the meaning and application of the word rebel as used in the vernacular. I hope some of the intellectual elite above catch the drift as well.

Rumor is they will be waving the last Confederate flag to indicate the start of the final lap of the race.
