He's obviously being cheeky, but hopefully whatever's making him think about death so much does get him to become spiritually active.
If I was buck breaking Israel and Hamas at the same time, I'd be thinking about my impending death too.
 
The Israeli cybersecurity guy was indicted 10 days ago; charge was "luring children or mentally ill persons with the use of technology with the intent to engage in sexual conduct." He's scheduled to appear for his initial arraignment Oct. 15. Wonder if he'll show.
The initial arraignment has been pushed to October 27. In his two court dates so far he's appeared remotely (legal under NV law); he's required to personally attend the arraignment though I wouldn't bet on his showing. Regarding why he's free and in Israel, it's pretty straightforward in that he was able to take advantage of the system. He was treated as an SOP suspect and given standard bail, which allowed him to pay up and get out of jail as long as he waived his right to a probable cause hearing. No judge is part of the standard bail process, and I'm pretty sure he was already out of the country by the time this all hit the news (he posted the $10,000 bail on August 7 and the earliest news reports came out August 15).

Maybe getting diagnosed with CVI has him thinking about it. Getting sick will make you think a lot about the spirit world and whatnot, in ancient times getting sick was even considered a calling to be a shaman. When I was having liver problems my grandfather told me "the spirits are calling you". You take it very seriously in the moment, believe me.
 
Donald J. Trump, President of the United States: "I'm being... a little cute UwU"
I genuinely hope Trump keeps a set of diaries, he seems to be one of the more thoughtful recent US presidents. Obama is too manufactured, Dubya is too subdued, Biden has nothing to him. He's no Marcus Aurelius but the way he's openly changed since the first term and his attempted assassination seems to have made him more introspective.

What gets me is that he survived his attempted assassination by a few millimeters in an open miracle but he still doubts that he's going to get into heaven. Any normal person would be convinced that they're chosen by God and Trump has a huge ego but he's openly rejecting this role. Why?

Moses was also chosen by God and denied entry into the promised land.
 
I just think we need to see more politicians openly worried about going to Hell.
It's where we're all going unless we accept the saving grace of Jesus Christ, whose atoning blood wipes clean our sins.

Just because God is using you doesn't mean you're saved; see above.
 
That's only because you aren't bullying them hard enough. You also have to bully the "purity spiral" faggots too. There's a reason there's a position in the political world called the "party whip" after all -- literally whip the fucking assholes back in line to make them do their fucking jobs and shut their pie holes.
If whipping jews was good enough for jesus it was good enough for me
 
How long ago was that? Frizzy hair like that looks very 80s, but the color saturation looks older. She does have nice facial cheeks and a good smile.
So the left just assumes all white women look the same? There’s no visual comparison other than then both being blonde and white.
To be fair, the facial expressions between the two from those photos (gazing eye expression tilting upward) do match up IMO.

If you want to play that game, younger Hillary Clinton from that shot looks like Diane Scarwid (the older Christina Crawford from Mommie Dearest.)

That hair and cheeks.

Moses was chosen by God despite him begging to be not Chosen because he was unworthy due to being disabled. He constantly struggled with his burden, mediating between an ungrateful people and a God that holds him to arguably an impossible standard. He also ended up transformed by god's presence to the point where he had to separate from his wives and wear a mask due to god's rays eminating from his face.

He's one of the most tragic figures in the Old Testament.

Trump is just dealing with existential thoughts.

That's fair, but I can't help but wonder what how you'd opine about Moses if you were living contemporaneously to him.

God uses every person ever born to enact his will. He used pharaoh in the exodus and pilate and the pharisees in the New Testament to name just a few. Trump is right to doubt his worthiness to get to Heaven, God using you does not mean you are made right with Him, only Faith in Christ can do that.
