The catholic religion sty and you will see the foolishness of this . You are totally wrong . Ash wed marks the begining
Of lent for Catholics . We have the right to practice our religions In this country and that’s like asking a Muslim to remove a habib

I used to be one, and you're right about it being the beginning of lent, but that doesn't explain what ash is symbolic of, which is repentance. I'm not against practicing religion of any kind, I am against the sheer ignorance and hypocrisy associated with doing so and failing to live it, outside of those days set aside to practice it.

Good, you put dirt on your forehead (or allow someone to do it) and someone asks you to remove it. I don't see a problem with it at all, especially for some child to have to be made to wear a sign of repentance. If he's that bad, look at the parents. Maybe he should be made to wear photos of them on his forehead instead.

Now before anyone gets their asses on their shoulders in indignation, I know that it's supposed to be a sign of "repentance." in the same fashion as Valentines day is the day that you're supposed to show your love. Now if you're honest, Valentines day celebrates a special love, as if you haven't done so in all of the time leading up to that day. That said, "repentance" for what? Perhaps, just like that special made up love day, it's for all of the fucked up shit you've done leading up to getting visibly marked as having done some off the wall BS?
Then you shouldn't get upset if a female muslim is asked to remove her head covering when entering school?

And this has what to do with forcing a kid to take it off

Lol, that’s a shot at me, but yet it seems to trigger you and the other lunatics, that would explain a lot about you. Benefit of the doubt has been removed. Thanks!

It's not a shot at you, but rather at the absolutely inane shit that you post. However, if you choose to associate yourself with it, I won't argue with you.

Well...freedom of religion. As for it being a child, we are all sinners and need repentance. It isn’t a matter of how bad.

I'm not a sinner, I don't do made up shit!

It’s more BS he was his campaign manager for 4 months out of 2 years. He was convicted of crimes that had nothing to do with trump , and happened long before trump even considered running . And do I have to go through the list of peoples in other administrations who failed to catch guys on their staffs who did something wrong . You just move from one goal post to another

See you continue to make excuses. The bottom line is Trump DID promise to drain the swamp of corruption and then proceeded to bring to Washington people who have been indicted and/or plead guilty of felonies. You can try to diminish their roles all you would like but none of that will change the fact that he brought them in and they were crooks and liars.

Kids are supposed to be innocent and free from this sort of indoctrination. They are his/her parents so I guess, just like the argument about border wall being a means to protect the country, religion and all of the damage that it's done is OK huh?

I agree. So what is your point? That he again lied? And he i different in this regard from other politicians how?

Separation of church and public school entirely? I'm actually ok with that.
We're supposed to have a clear separation of the two, and there's not one person who can say...that's true!

Every business gets sued in America. I can’t stand how he acts, but that isn’t a prerequisite for the job.

So let me get this straight. You would be OK if Republicans had formed a special counsel to look into Obama for Fast and Furious, IRS targeting of the Tea Party, Russian collusion, and Benghazi, to include investigations into everybody he has ever known?

If there was reason to investigate Obama, as there is clearly with Trump, then I would have had no problem with it.

I guess when your historical knowledge only dates back 2018 it’s hard to remember things like Reagan amnesty.

Donald Trump has to wake up every day and thank his God for AOC.

Damn that was fast, good morning.

It wasn't just a lie, it was a huge campaign promise and he willingly broke it. It was his "read my lips". Bush went back on his promise because he kind of had to. Trump broke his campaign promise on purpose, he never intended to back that campaign promise that he was using to win votes.

Yeah that's a bit different than saying "I won by the largest margin in history" or the other famous lies he has spewed.

You need to school yourself up ( Clinton ) what you need to understand is it isn’t a game it’s holding you accountable for excusing behavior your guys commit while bashing Trump for the same thing you suddenly got a conscience about . Show me any evidence that this happened . You don’t have anything but unsubstantiated accusations . “ some think he did “. Come the fuck on . And if you knew anything about military physicals ( which your foolish comment illustrates you don’t ) you can’t go to basic if you can’t walk , run or match long distances and the US. Military is responsible Financially for anything that happens to you. On active. Duty . If the spurs got worse they end up paying disability . I have a disability rating for hemorrhoids for the love of god ( 0%) which means they get treated for free. So again show me proof not some BS allegation and learn the difference that allegations aren’t proof

I have been critical of Hillary and Obama when warranted. Have you ever been critical of Trump? Ever? Please show your work.

Morning. Why now? Why have you chosen to pick this time and this candidate to hold to all of his campaign promises? A lie is a lie and there hasn't been one candidate on the campaign trail that hasn't said he/she was going to do something once elected that never happened. Remember Obama and Gitmo? He was going to close it as his first course of action. Guess what...its still open. That's just one example.
