The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I’m gonna watch this one for sure.

I'm sure Trump will think it is him speaking. To summarize the passage God says "shut up and do as I say, or suffer the consequences". Typical "JC" attitude.

Of course, it's from the Old Testament, in all it's blood and vengeance soaked glory. None of this "blessed is the peacemaker" wokie stuff.

The devil can cite scripture for his purposes

Wm. Shakespeare


And the current Pope.

Pope Leo XIV:

Woe to those who manipulate religion in the very name of God for their own military, economic or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.

Trump recites his piece Tuesday evening. The "cease fire" ends on Wednesday. I doubt that is a coincidence either. Trump the Living God declares punishment on Iran, for not doing what he ordered.
