The reason why you don’t get a ‘reasoned discussion’ where ‘your points are properly addressed’ doesn’t lie with other posters, it lies with yourself. You get your news from the ridiculous WND, support the far right, and for the White House you’d vote for a convicted sex offender who lies the way the rest of us breathe. Plus, you have the temerity to call yourself religious!
The problem is that like many deeply religious folk, your political opinions are based not on facts and reason but on feelings, falsehoods, unreliable anecdotes and misunderstandings all garnered from disreputable news sources, which serve to reinforce your own prejudices.
It’s utterly bonkers, and that is why you never get the kind of fawning sympathy you crave.
