it's not like there was an infinite water tap and Trump walked up to it, shrugged, and turned it on, thus cutting the Gordian Knot. If California has a drought year, that decision will have catastrophic consequences. The reservoirs fill when rain is heavy and that water needs to be held for times when water is scarce. It is a limited supply.
California’s water problems are not supply, but control, and as usual Jews are behind it.
The Resnick family have been allowed by the morons in Sacramento to gain an ungodly level of control over California’s water supply for their agricultural ventures.

I was shocked when I got out west and learned that there are law firms and lawyers out there that specialize in water rights and water related litigation. I'm sure they exist here in the midwest where I'm from, but you never see them advertised or anything.
 
Texas is major oil state. Yet thanks to green energy retardery that were imposed on a federal level by Democrats, sometimes Texans lose their electric heat in the winter, and some can hardly afford AC in the summer. During Biden’s War on Energy, they were discouraged from utilizing their fossil fuel and technological resources to produce economically efficient energy. Imagine if William Faulkner had to deal with the resulting energy bills:

You can’t blame that all on the Dems; Rick Perry, the Bush-era Republican governor, was a massive promoter of wind energy.

There was a bill in the Texas legislature to fix the issue you mentioned, by requiring all energy sources to guarantee reliability (for green energy, that means either batteries or power purchase agreements with reliable power sources like fossil fuels and nuclear). This would make green energy completely unviable, because batteries and surplus generation are too expensive, so the RINOs/Dem alliance that controls the Texas House refused to bring it to a vote.

Luckily for Texas, the Big Beautiful Bill is ending federal green energy credits, making the reliability bill a nice-to-have instead of a necessity. No subsidies means that most green energy projects won’t get build because they’re way too expensive without the free money. Windmills and solar panels make more money from the government than they do selling electricity.
 
You do, because murder is illegal tough guy. You can't grab your pitchforks and attack us. Get over it.
I don’t think he was talking about that he was more talking about how anyone that does like a basic deep dive into your theology would quickly realize it’s not recognizable as Christianity at all.

Like if Mormonism is Christianity so is Islam, so is Bahai, etc

(I don’t hate tho, I like Mormonism, its history and the people, but you shouldn’t pretend you don’t know why nicene Christians think you have bad theology)

I don't have to do anything. Salvation is free, you have denied it. You are free to live your life and I will leave you in peace.

Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravaging wolves
 
>leave thread alone for like a day
>people are still sperging about Mormons and WelperHelper

It should be against site policy to feature this thread, ever.
Something from Ben Garrison.

Where are the edits, though?
Considering how bumbling Tim Walz is, I'm inclined to believe it. "Mmmmnnyeah go a head and kill that there Senator sew I kin run fer Senate, eh?" This Boelter guy is turning out to be an interesting lunatic.

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

I can believe Walz did it. That state is a lolcow state that drinks way too much booze. Can't even get the Rackets bodycam out without a spergout, now this.
 
I wouldn't have such vitriol toward the Mormon church if...
  1. They leaned into their esoteric, gnostic-adjacent cosmology with an anthropomorphic God
Its an important and central principal that God has a physical body, just like you and I, and that is part of us being made in His image. Joseph Smith includes it in the First Vision, the founding inciting event of our religion.

Mormons could lean heavily into bettering the lives of their poorest practitioners
There are many programs for members who are down on their luck or in hard times:
Bishops Storehouses are local pantries for those who need groceries or other housefold consumables
Rent assistance is something Bishops have available for those in their ward
There are many in person and online Addiction Recovery Programs available to members and nonmembers alike
The church has been tinkering with online schooling through BYU and BYUI, making school more accessible generally
There is an employment assistance program to help people find jobs and apply for them
These are just some of the specific things set up to help those in need in a ward, not including the personal service many members do for each other and those in the local community, members or not.
I frankly have no idea why Christians tolerate Mormons, or allow them to claim to be believers in Christ.
Many don't, much like yourself. I'm not sure how people come to the conclusion that they personally are the arbiters of who is Christian and who isn't, and how a Church centered and named after Christ cannot be a Christian church.
 
@Dread First I don't think there is a way to redeem Mormonism because it's a cynical view of Christianity and religion to begin with. Everything Joseph Smith did was clearly the actions of a lying grifter. Honestly Muhammed has some similar issues, we know historically that Muhammed was a blood thirsty pedophile, just like we know historically Joseph Smith was a grifting pervert. I frankly have no idea why Christians tolerate Mormons, or allow them to claim to be believers in Christ. They are a disgusting heresy who are cut from the same cloth as the merchants He whipped out of the temple.

(by the way I would actually quote your post but for some reason that isn't available)
I don't get to bring this up often but your post with "Mormonism" and "Muhammed" in it made me remember: Muslim Mormonism!

They have their own view of what happened with/to Jesus after the crucifixion.

And believe that he is buried here.

My favourite titbit is the founder's attempt to "prayer duel" a guy:

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad > Joseph Smith.
They also operate two whole hospitals for the less fortunate, one in Africa and one in Pakistan

Heresy? Almost definitely. Better than faith they're being heretical to (Sunni Islam)? Also yes.
Also Mirza was not a polygamist pedophile.

Utah will become a blue state by 2030, calling it right now. Texas is already well on its way.
Deliberately steering your metaphorical ship into a metaphorical iceberg because there’s someone you don’t like on board is a stupid fucking idea.
You might want to live in a state full of tax-dodging, tax-credit-claiming, cash-in-hand illegal workers who soak government services without paying for them in order to ‘own the chuds’ but most rational people would say you’re retarded.

The muslims hate us because they hate everybody who is not a muslim. They do the same thing to christians in Indonesia, they do the same shit in China and the same shit in India and they do this shit at home too, to each other. Stop blaming yourself or the jews or the CIA for the crimes that the muslims themselves commit. It's not healthy and it makes our problems worse. One day, this problem will be yours too, it's just a matter of time.
This is typical.

This narrative willfully or unwillfully ignores the fact that islamic terrorism has been ramped up because of the establishment of Israel in 1948, and how that establishment took place. Let's put aside/accept/ignore the Jewish narrative of zionism, and the concept that the jews have a "rightful place". Let's take it as a given and really look at it big picture.

There was no such thing as a muslim suicide bomber, or civilian terrorism before Qutbism, or the Islamic Revolution in Iran. Suicide is against Islamic clerical law, and didn't count as Martyrdom with the only exception relating to Shiite's view on the Battle of Karbala. There was no such thing as Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, or Hezbollah before Sykes-Picot, or the Balfour declaration.
Hell, Terrorism might as well be an invented term for the 1900s to describe war by any other means than a uniformed army, to create the concept that these are "crimes against humanity" all the while practical military strategy in modernity means everyone is putting missiles, troop, and gear in any useful civilian area, and "civilians" are considered to be potential combatants as soon as they go anywhere near a rifle. Hell you don't have to be a combatant, you can be a nuclear scientist working at a university who helps develop nuclear technology. Is that "terrorism" or is that just good old fashion "legal warfare" like how grandma made apple pie.

All of these "isms" like terrorism, racism, sexism, etc. were invented in the post-industrial revolution environment anyway and are just "guilt trip" mechanisms to make you feel bad, which is fuel for desiring retribution. It's why 9/11 led to insane outcomes that had nothing to do with Osama Bin Laden, with enemies and countries that had nothing to do with 9/11. THEY'RE A TERRORISM! GLASS EM!
So fucking what. So is your favorite baby killer faction whose flag you wave if I look up the history. I mean it was just a village of civilians, just write em down as Charlie.

There's a bifurcated cousin group on this planet that makes their existence everyone else's problem, claims that they're the chosen, does whatever it wants without care, subverts nations it inhabits in secret, and acts like they've never done anything wrong ever, and they're both shitting up reality and our collective experience of time. They both think they're the "real ones".

There hasn't been a major war in the last 100 years that wasn't somehow relating to these jewish/arab/oily interests. The Balfour declaration came out of WW1, which established the British mandate for Palestine. WW2 created the holocaust era, and 3 years later the establishment of Israel. All of the Communism-Capitalism cold war aspects resulted in dividing the west against the eastern axis which to this day still somehow exists, even though there shouldn't be a reason why Iran and Russia and China are somehow "allies" when they're historical rivals. Even though there's no "real" reason anymore for the US and Russia to be enemies if you believe that independent nations exist, or should exist and deal with each other diplomatically. No, we live in a continuous low level war of economic and ideological irritation, just like the cold war because unlike the cold war this war is religious and not one of political ideologies. Russia, China, Vietnam they could give less than a fuck about "communism" and the west has only become more socialistic and welfare state-like with their endless bureaus and regulations driven by corporate projects and state projections.

You literally cannot talk about any of this honestly without pointing that all of this is because jewish/muslim interests are tied in parallel to whatever else you're trying to say.
If the jews/muslims didn't exist (I'm just saying this theoretically, not with any kind of desire or intent) then what the fuck would everyone be fighting about today in the middle east? Huh? What would the big beef be over? fucking oil that is all over the place? gas that is all over the place? fuckin bananas? French people trying to own the Suez canal? Really? Communism that no one really believes in? Pan-Arab wars of competition?

How is it that the 42nd or so generation of desert people who lived and quarreled over house gods next to each other thousands of years ago are causing the primary schism and potential for world war today?
Whats that got to do with US politics? What the fuck?
That is my purse, I do not know you.


Somehow everyone is upset about sperging about jews and muslims. Ok.
But we're just supposed to ignore the jew/muslim spergery that these groups promote from their own mouths and with substantial money and time?
We're supposed to take a side, as if this religious strife is our problem?
Are we our own people in our own nations, or are we just useful to Jews/Muslims?

The "west" has literally had to deal with this conflict for thousands of years now. Our roman ancestors had to deal with this kind of tribal spergery then just like now.
Western man believes in an Abrahamic religion because of this. Christianity exists because of this. Islam exists because of this.
History for the last 2,500 years or so has been all about levantine/desert thoughts and ideas.

In reality: It isn't the year 5764. It isn't the year 1446. Hell it isn't even the year 2025.

Scientists say "um acktually its something like year 4.6b". Because of convenience, the power of tradition, and religious supremacy, we can't even agree on what year it is, so how are we going to agree on something like nuclear weapons, or borders?

As for modern day conflict:

What the fuck else conflict wise is going on in the world besides jews and muslims fighting? Africans who can't get civilization put together? Ukrainian proxy bullshit? Theres no mass killing going on that has as much money, time, technology, and effort put in as this jew/muslim oil and gas fueled spergery. Ukraine didn't get any of those F-35s, SEAD capabilities, or air defense, to go after Putin, but Israel has all the new toys. Ukraine fights for 3 years nonstop with old upgraded soviet garbage and leftover shit with the occasional HIMARS system or Patriot battery, yet Israel is somehow able to align the entire world towards defending its existence no matter the cost. They steadily destroyed the entire Shia militant network from the river to the sea, and the very thought that "wow this really is all about jewish/muslim ideas" is the big thing no one is allowed to point out, when its the reason all of this is happening, and has been happening since before the crusades and Muhammad even existed.
So typical.
