It is said that god best help those who help themselves. 
Never understood that one - if I can help myself, why do I need God? Irish fishermen have a saying: 'Pray to God if you must, but it helps to row away from the rocks.'

I suppose it is tacit acknowledgment of the fact that god does not actually help anybody.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

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"

Looks like Santos pleaded guilty to identity theft, which will result in, at least 2y behind bars. Suum cuique!

He's also looking at nearly $600 000 in restitution and asset forfeiture. Golly, if only he had a way to raise money...

Yeah, just the opposite of what the Church is teaching us: trans and drag people of which they say we should fear are harmless, but conservative Christians of which they say we should trust and follow are monsters.
So, based on this bitch making a totally erroneous claim that undocumented migrants were registering to vote, Ken Paxton raided offices of the Latino Democratic Party in Texas and confiscated phones and computers giving him access to confidential information. And they’ve suspended allowing voter registration booths at DMV’s.
Does anyone understand how really wrong and illegal this is?

I don’t have children, but if I did, I’m pretty sure they’d be safer and less traumatized at a drag show than at a religious school.

Yes, they understand that it’s both wrong and illegal. But Paxton isn’t one of those sissy-pants, pussifed commie attorneys general who’s gonna let a little thing like laws stop him from doing The Right Thing.
