Discussing politics and religion

That's why Trump told him he wasn't holding any cards.

I have a different perspective:

It’s not easy to choose moral ideals of Caring, Fairness and Liberty when the pull of Authority, Loyalty and Sanctity is greater …. All six have equal importance but Balancing the six when you’re holding all the cards, is like a seductive mistress, way to tempting for some leaders to resist.

Power over people perpetuates powering over, while empowering people perpetuates power onto the people.

He and us all are a work in progress and that’s why the bullets missed.

If the rest of the NATO countries want the Ukraine as a member, why are they not helping pay for it to fight Russia?

Cuz they are all talk, and no substance.

It is thought that the current PM in the UK will soon be out of office. He has basically stopped freedom of speech. A man standing on the street outside an abortion clinic was arrested for praying silently to himself. A person was arrested for complaining on social media when a serial rapist got probation. He has openly been protecting Islamic street gangs.

IMHO when we share claims like that, which take stories out of context, then choose not to understand the context, the discernment can most certainly be incorrect.…..No doubt goodness and evil is real, however, when we loose ourselves in ‘ judgmental blood thirst ‘ and start to enjoy the taste, IT could be, as a culture, we have unhealed resentment wounds, and by not knowing how to heal them, we express outwardly rather than inward, in a desperate attempt to heal them . All healing comes from within, and any outward just creates blame and projections or labels of evil

If we want wiggle room to handle social complexities between liberals and conservatives, we must ask more of ourselves, by Projecting understanding rather than manufacturing evil. IMHO

Those stories are not out of context. They are straight out of the news in the UK.

Context as I understand it, provides more details of the story in order to paint a more clear and just picture of the situation. So ! we can apply better and more accurate assessment of the situation….. Re-read your post and then read the full context from the BBC article, then re-assess those claims of suppressed freedom of speech and that the current Prime Minister is on his way out because of it ?

It still says it is illegal to silently pray to yourself.

Just to clarify, even though it may say it’s illegal, The context provides interpretation to discern its appropriate meaning. Ai was all over it.
