I don't know of ANY Government that funds churches, -- certainly not the U.S. :)

There are a few church sponsored programs that are partially funded by the Government... usually day-cares and education programs and emergency housing... usually all non religious activities.

It is hard for me to take this seriously. It's wishful thinking.

I would say maybe it's people like Q who are trying to create fear and panic, imagining shadowy enemies everywhere.

The more comments I read by Trump supporters (in this thread and in other threads) and the more I listen to Trump talk, the more I lean toward voting for Joe Biden. If these outspoken conservatives are trying to convince people like us to vote for Trump, then they are failing miserably.

It's actually causing me to dislike Donald Trump and his supporters even more than I did before I joined this site three weeks ago. I've shared the link to this thread with some fellow Independents and conservative friends of mine and they're just as appalled by its content as I am.

Good Point! And certainly the Dems would love to BLACKMAIL those Day-care, Schools, Universities, & Hospitals.

As polarized as America is at the moment...
There's going to be a lot of unrest no matter who wins...

If it's Trump... the Democrats will have a meltdown and cry foul.

If it's Biden the Republicans will be stoic and still cry foul.
And prepare their bunkers a bit more. But still look forward to electing Republicans in the midterm election.

Biden's record is not exactly one of getting a lot of things accomplished.
Even if he has a democratic Senate or House.
This Hunter Biden scandal will dog him the entire time he is in office. No matter whether it is proven false or true...and his health at his age is always suspect. (Same thing for Trump)

No matter what...my faith and hope is in God...not this nation's leaders.

I think it's already been proven TRUE. Why else is the Dishonest Media so intent on BLAMING instead of INVESTIGATING?


Makes an honest person go: hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I get, I get! Playing the violin for Satan is only good music, but it is a waste of time. What are the chances of converting Satan?

I was referring to charitable programs used in churches. These programs are funded with federal money. Like what @JohnDB is saying. You could probably do an internet search to find examples.

Well, a woman's gonna do what a woman's gonna do law or no law.
I think thats why RvW was created, so women wouldnt be killing themselves in alleys.
Among other people's genocidal agendas. But yeah I dont think anything would stop a woman from doing what she set her mind to. Right or wrong.
I think some women have abortions because they're worried. I knew a girl whose boyfriend went in jail when she was pregnant. She was thinking about having an abortion. She didn't want to, but she was very worried. I talked her into having the baby, moving in with me; and then her boyfriend did too after he got out of prison. I was there when she needed me -- the two of them broke up shortly after the baby was born, and then other friends of hers offered her a place to live so she moved in with them.

In one way, the extreme ones annoy me; and in another way, I pity them since they seem so afraid of so many things and then imagine Trump is going to save them.

I have friends and family who support Trump, but they're not so extreme as some of these people. Putting the most extreme ones on ignore works for me.

I thought you were the one who couldn't wait to get out there and vote against Trump. But now you are being swayed to vote for Biden, because what you hear Trump and his supporters say?

Things that make you go Hmmm.

I can relate to that "worried" feeling.
I truly thought my parents were going to disown me.
Someday her child may thank you.
I can understand "special" circumstances. Limited mind you.
But these women that go around boasting not only that they've had one, but many.
Nah... This is a sensitive subject for me. I have limited mercy and pity for people that brazenly
take an innocent life.
I have to leave it to God because ultimately he is the judge not me.
I can only be responsible for my decisions and actions. And share with people my life story.
That there are always choices. And pray they make the right one.
Hugs
And thank you for sharing.

You BURIED the Golden Rule when you chose to support the abomination of Abortion by voting for a demonic agenda.
Don't look for "mercy" when you show NONE to those who are most vulnerable and innocent.

Shame on ALL of you who support this abomination before God - then throw HIS sacred Word around in a vain effort to cover your sin by condemning others for holding you accountable.

Good luck
trying to explain your way OUT of this when you stand before Almighty God on the Day of your Judgement . . .

Well said, well said. They say "oh we are Christian" than do you vote dem? "Yes" they say. Then they are not Christian, just pretend

That, to me, just sounds like belittling those with other views. What is it you suppose I'm so afraid of? But I do want to see more restoration of our freedoms, and a more lively economy. Things we'll see with Trump, but not with Biden.

Is it really fear and grasping for a savior? Or can we just be making a reasoned choice, as I would suppose you are?

Much love!

More than two people are running.

I just decided I'll be voting for Biden. I knew I couldn't vote for Trump, but I was also considering the Libertarian candidate. I found out more about what she stands for -- and I decided I thought Biden was probably better. I didn't check out the Green Party since I felt sure they'd be too far to the left for me.

I will not make a personal comment about you. I have an opinion, but I'll keep it to myself.

I can only go by what I see; and I see a lot of fear mongering coming from Trump. You see a restoration of freedoms? I see Trump as behaving unconstitutionally like a tyrant. You see a lively economy? I see a crushing load of debt, a huge trade deficit worse than when Trump took office. Wall Street investment banks agree with me -- they support Biden overwhelmingly over Trump.

I know what you mean, Giuliano. I was hoping to go vote sometime this week, but I don’t know if I can since I'm not feeling well. I think it might be a stomach virus. I’m bummed about it because I'd like to vote sometime this week, but I may have to wait until next week. With COVID-19 and a weakened immune system, I have to be very cautious when I go out in public. I try to avoid large crowds if I can when I go out anyway.

Voting is heavy and the lines are really long. Most states are already at 50% of 2016 number of votes.

What do you hope to accomplish by saying things like this? Did you think you would convince everyone to hate Trump, or what?

Have you even bothered to address any of his policies? @Grailhunter provided a lengthy list. You don't like anything on that list? Would you like some things on the list if they were someone else's policies?

Oh, that's right. You have me on ignore, so you won't answer any of my questions even though your comments apply to me. This is cowardly.
