GOP-er Kicks Off Run With Bible Verse, Gets Busted For Solicitation
Of a minor, no less.
Quote:The East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office says a woman contacted them and said her 15-year-old daughter had exchanged messages that were "sexual in nature" with Joshua Schopp, 20, on the platform. The victim reportedly lied about her age to Schopp initially, telling him she was 17.
But even after learning the victim's true age, Schopp continued to ask for nude photos and sent her a video of himself with his genitals exposed -- a video which the mother screen-recorded and handed over to police...
Schopp faces one count of computer-aided solicitation of a minor.
On his Facebook page on July 21, 2022, Schopp wrote: "It’s now OFFICIAL I am proud and honored to announce my running for Central Community School System-School Board of District 1!!!"
He then cited a Bible verse: “'And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.' Colossians 3:17."

(August 19, 2022 at 8:19 am)Tomato Wrote: Fox host outraged that school district pulled the Bible from shelves in book challenge
LGBTQ Nation
Quote:Fox News hosts have expressed outrage over the Bible being removed from school library shelves in a Texas school district, claiming that the book should be allowed, even though it contains stories of incest and violence and promotes slavery, the subjugation of women, and the murder of LGBTQ people.
The Fox News panel also said that banning the Bible from schools furthers a Democratic plot, even though the school district’s home county traditionally votes Republican.
The Christian religious text was removed by the Keller Independent School District’s Book Challenge Committee this week because it was challenged for having “sexual content and violence” along with 40 other books, most of which featured Black and LGBTQ characters. The district’s school principals were told to keep the books off of library shelves until the district has completed its review of each book’s appropriateness for student readers.
The four female and one male hosts on Fox News’ talk show Outnumbered expressed outrage over the book’s removal.
Do they not know it was their own people, the religious far right that pulled the book? Bible is way too pinko for god fearin' christers.

Just replace "woke" with "Jews" if you want to know what it sounded like in the original German.
Quote:DeSantis: "We must fight the woke in our schools. We must fight the woke in our businesses. We must fight the woke in government agencies. We can never, ever surrender to woke ideology. [...] The state of Florida is where woke goes to die."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Where's Our Money, Rick??
Quote:Republican Senate hopefuls are getting crushed on airwaves across the country while their national campaign fund is pulling ads and running low on cash — leading some campaign advisers to ask where all the money went and to demand an audit of the committee’s finances, according to Republican strategists involved in the discussions.
Quote:The NRSC’s chairman, Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, has already taken heat from fellow Republicans for running ads featuring him on camera and releasing his own policy agenda that became a Democratic punching bag — leading to jokes that “NRSC” stood for “” in a bid to fuel his own presumed presidential ambitions.
So, the Republicans put the guy who was at the centre of the biggest Medicare fraud case in history in charge of their money, and then have the nerve to act surprised that he mismanaged those campaign funds.

Another GOP politician demonstrates his selflessness and obvious concern for his voters in Pennsylvania.
