Part of me being conservative also involved me becoming a little more religious. And I think that eased some of the conflict I would have had with my still liberal parents.

Occasionally my mother agrees with me, or seems like she's coming over. She was sympathetic to J. K. Rowling on the trans issue. But now.... now I can declare myself a woman and be as much as one as my mother, apparently. (An odd thing for someone who fathered children).

But they honestly believe the anti-Semitism charge and that's no joke. They push the Charlottesville hoax relentlessly, and just as Scott Adams predicted, you can show them a transcript and highlight the condemnation of the white supremacists -- and they will not notice it. Hypnosis.

As for money, there's a nice line in Fidder in the Roof where the socialist Perchich has the exchange with Tevye.

Perchick: Money is a curse.

Tevye: Then may the Lord smite me with it!

Hahahaha! Perchick also had some really stupid interpretation of the story of Jacob.

I don't know what to do with lefties who just won't look at the facts. I pray for those who are like that for God to replace their hearts of stone with a heart of flesh.

The LGBTQIA thing is bothersome to me. I was in favor of civil unions but not calling it marriage because I believed that eventually, it would be used as a weapon to go after religion and yep, that's exactly what's happening. No one plays victim as much as the angry LGBTQIA++ but they are merciless toward anyone with a hint of disagreement on gender queer theory. Ya know the story of Lot...yep, we all know it now....the problem wasn't that they were gay per se. It's that they wouldn't allow anyone else to be straight. Lot offers his daughters. They want the men. There's something true in that story and the way the entire trans issue became issue number one almost overnight when Obama wrote the Dear Colleague letter. I think most conservatives don't think LGBTQIA+ is normal but in a pluralist society it's a "you have your thing and I'll have my thing" but now it's you have to participate with trans' beliefs and go along with it. There has never been a right before that necessitated that other people had to change their opinions in order for someone to practice his rights.

Oh yeah, I remember that. "The story of Laban and Jacob shows that you should never trust an employer."

Could not agree more on the LGBT thing. What's weird is, I used to be a part of it. (I'm not anymore). I found it... odd, even when I was involved in it. That's the nice word. I could also accept civil union, but like you point out, they didn't want marriage to be marriage. They wanted marriage to be a battle-ax against religious people.

I'm starting to wonder if... there was a book I didn't finish but it seemed a lot of the energy behind LGBT is related to the zero population growth -- that is, people who think there are too many people in the world. So have sterile relations. Convince impressionable teenagers to transition. Even if they change their mind, you already sterilized them with hormones and/or surgery. And of course abortion, abortion, abortion.

When I argue with the gay marriage advocates they are some of the most vicious people I ever argued with. Just: "If you don't think I should be able to marry another man, then you hate gay people!" Now BLM is using this same tactic. Which is even crazier because they're simultaneously anti-Semitic (I'm Jewish) and very pro LGBT.

Ever notice how BLM talks about pushing mothers, parents ... but doesn't mention fathers?

The devil hates God. God said "Be Fruitful and Multiply" so the devil tells us to be barren and kill off our kids.

They think it has to do with population in the the policy tank and upper echelons because those people hate humans, just like the devil. They're really as dumb as Marvin the Martian when he said "I'll solve all the world's problems. I'll blow it up." Same attitude with the elites. They'll solve all the problems humans have by eliminating the humans.

It's just an empty platitude to the left when they say humans are our most valuable resource. well, not entirely, to them humans are just a resource, like a fossil fuel or fresh water lake. They don't really value humans.

I always prefer to work at a job that has a Personnel office. When it's called "Human Resources" that always turns my stomach. Makes me feel like I'm a piece of lumber.
