Finding the will to live when we feel hopeless for what life seems to offer us in the foreseeable future, might be found in believing we are the kind person of capable of loving the people around us and letting go of everything that isn’t love. You are worth more love, not less.
When you are feeling like the worst version of yourself, you deserve more love, not less. I love you. You are here to love the hearts of people around you in ways only you can love them.
We would be happy if everyone please support us and share this post. Dear president @JoeBiden US House passes resolution declaring 'anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism' in a 311-14 vote. The US Congress declared the largest Hasidic Jewish community in the world to be anti-Semitic…

In the face of abandonment by those we love, the only hope of solace in the midst of such pain is in not abandoning ourselves. The promise to stay with yourself and the pain is what helps us keep the will to survive. When you are at your worst, you deserve more love, not less.
You voted "NO" on the Price Gouging Bill that would protect consumers from the price-gouging of gasoline and other fuels by Big Oil. You don't care about regular folks being ripped off at the pump by Big Oil. #ncpol

#Conservatives, help me out. Why is climate change still being ignored by Republicans? Could this be the one issue we all could work together on to address—like, right now? Please. apple.news/AVXqEi89qR46Xv…
I think about this a lot too. It’s an emptiness or void. Going back to the “miss the mark” definition, what’s the “mark”? That’s where things went terribly wrong—they made the goal perfection, rather than love. Anything done without love “misses the mark.” Sin’s a lack of love.

This is so important!
How do you know when the system itself needs to be reimagined & reformed? When it becomes impossible for anyone to rise to our own ideals of decency.

Oliver Anthony shuts down Republicans for claiming “Rich Men North of Richmond”: “It’s aggravating seeing people on conservative news trying to identify with me like I’m one of them... I wrote that song about [GOP presidential candidates]. That song has nothing to do with Biden.”
Hello friends! I need your wisdom. @kevinmyoung @ianharber @preston_shipp @mattnightingale @nc_clair @thomaslhorrocks @PastorTrey05 @ZachWLambert Why is claiming the Bible is “written by God” a misleading & potentially harmful translation of Scripture is “inspired by God”?
“This is not journalism, it’s not even bad journalism, it’s straight up propaganda.” This is the whole plan. Manufactured outrage. What a joke, except of course it’s not a joke. The consequences are all too real.

@patricknouwen I always thought I had the power of Christ to live my "good" life. Having lost faith I am the same person. I didn't even start drinking alcohol, let alone start having all the fun "sins" Christians seem to think all non-believers (and themselves) get up to. I am too boring.
Epiphany. THE ARRIVAL OF THE MAGI. A reminder to Christians that God invited PAGAN ASTROLOGERS to be present at his own birth without fear of condemnation or conversion. And if you read closely, THEY are the righteous ones. Be careful who you call heretic.
@Dyoung1208 Because it isn’t about their faith, at its core. It’s about their bigotry and hatred of things they dislike. So they use religion to try and enforce their beliefs on others…. which is something for which they will not stand: Others’ beliefs being forced on them.

My dudes, this verse is NOT about the Bible.

“The sky is blue.” This is true, but also false. The sky is not blue. It is an illusion. The real color of the sky is seen at night: CLEAR. You can’t see the truth (clear skies) because of your need for inerrancy (blue skies/certainty). Inerrancy = subjective and relative
I am losing touch with the person I used to be, who had an intimate life-changing relationship with Jesus/God. If I am ever going to write the story of my loss of faith in a way that sounds real to a believer I think I need to start it soon, definitely in 2024.
Your thoughts 💭?
@RoblovesJC What I am saying is you have double standards. Loads of Catholics are on here and talk about amazing things Mary has done in their lives. Do you keep checking all their evidence in case you should become a Catholic? Of course not. But you expect atheists to do it with your story.
@RoblovesJC Rob, can you reframe the same question to yourself as regards evidence for Marian apparitions? I would expect you do not look for evidence they are real, right? It is in this same way that atheists have lack of interest in your version of supernatural claims.
What makes the struggle of my grandparents and their peers so remarkable is that they could not see the light at the end of the tunnel. Unshakeable faith in a better world was all they had in Jim Crow America. Their fight is ours today. May we have their faith going into 2024.
Then, slowly America began to awaken. The newsreel footage of blacks being treated as sub-human finally became too much to stomach for a majority of Americans and they summoned the moral courage required to strip white supremacy of its false moral authority.
They knew the only chance to defeat the racial order of their time was to hold onto their morals, their beliefs in the bedrock principles of America, and their sense of what was right and just.
My grandparents also marched not for themselves or their race, but for all Americans. They understood that one group’s monopoly of what is moral in our society leads to exclusion, corruption, and division, the very things we see today.
My grandparents marched for that day, and in so doing, proved themselves to be better Americans than the white supremacists who draped themselves in their illusory moral superiority.
When my grandparents started marching for their rights in the 1940s, they were demonized by this moral power as un-Christian instigators and inciters. The white man who broke my grandfather's jaw during a protest did so because he felt that moral authority was on his side.
The adherents of white supremacy used the Bible to justify slavery and apartheid, and they often spoke of a benevolent duty to help what they saw as wild and inferior blacks. Consequently, many of America’s institutions sided with this version of moral goodness.
This racial order did not survive for centuries by believing that it was an immoral power; its every move, even the violent ones, were justified by belief in its fundamental virtue.
I will not say it again: a reverse hunger games where billionaires compete and all the losers’s wealth gets redistributed to the countries they stole resources from
