>The Supreme Court is diving into a debate about the place of religious symbols in public life in a case about a cross-shaped war memorial in Maryland.

>The case the high court is hearing Wednesday involves a 40-foot-tall, concrete cross on a large, grassy highway median in Maryland, just outside Washington. The nearly 100-year-old cross was built as a memorial to area residents who died in World War I.

>The District of Columbia-based American Humanist Association say the cross should be moved to private property or modified into a nonreligious monument such as a slab or obelisk. The group lost the first round in court, but in 2017 an appeals court ruled the cross unconstitutional.

>Defending the cross at the high court are The American Legion, which raised money for the cross and completed it in 1925, and Maryland officials, who took over maintenance of the cross nearly 60 years ago to preserve it and address traffic safety concerns. Maryland officials argue that the cross doesn’t violate the Constitution because it has a secular purpose and meaning.

https://archive.fo/MpT2h

The obvious answer is that the cross represents Christianity, but this is no issue with the establishment clause of the First Amendment

<Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

This is set up to be a win for conservatives that sets precedent for more ambiguous cases

UPDATE: SCOTUS passed it's ruling on Thursday

<7-2 in favor of American Legion

Summary:

>The Supreme Court issued its ruling on June 20, 2019. In a complex decision with many additional opinions, the Court ruled 7-2 to reverse and remand the Fourth Circuit's decision and allowing the Cross to stand. Justice Samuel Alito, writing for the plurality decision, stated that "The cross is undoubtedly a Christian symbol, but that fact should not blind us to everything else that the Bladensburg Cross has come to represent", and that "destroying or defacing the Cross that has stood undisturbed for nearly a century would not be neutral and would not further the ideals of respect and tolerance embodied in the First Amendment". Alito was joined by Roberts, Breyer, Kagan, and Kavanaugh. Thomas and Gorsuch wrote separate opinions that joined Alito's judgement.

Al Mohler talked about it today, listen here:

https://albertmohler.com/2019/06/24/briefing-6-24-19

Key takeaways:

>1971 "Lemon Test" for determining violations of establishment clause effectively ended, it was too subjective

>4 arguments in majority opinion:

>1: Historically untenable to retroactively determine that the placement of the cross had motives for establishment of religion

>2: Over time the purposes that are associated with an established monument symbol or practice often multiply

>3: Monuments take on secular symbolism in addition to Christian symbolism (which we affirm the cross is, Christian)

>4: It would be wrong for government to force the taking down of these monuments after so much time.

The hunched jew-corpse woman argued in her dissenting opinion that the presence of the Christian symbol was a harm to secularists. The majority dismissed this.

Scripture does not say. The only allusion to this topic in scripture that I know of is when David expresses hope about seeing his stillborn son again, so there must be at least some unborn who make it to Heaven. That's as far as this topic can be authoritatively addressed. Anything more is just speculation.

I do need to point out that scripture makes it clear that unborn children are not sinless, if for no other reason than being born of the sons of Adam. Only Jesus was an exception to this because, in addition to His biological "father" being the Holy Spirit, he had no human father. Hence his being the "second Adam" and thus blameless.

Scripture mentions Esau being born with Jacob grabbing his ankle, which in the context of Jacob tricking Esau out of his brother's birthright shows that Jacob was jealous even before he had left the womb. In addition to that, King David, of all people, said in Psalm 51:5

<Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,

<And in sin my mother conceived me.

David was not born as a result of adultery or fornication, so what else could he be talking about here but that his very nature was corrupted from his inception? Not that this has any real bearing on your question, but I just wanted to correct you on the idea that any human besides Jesus was sinless.

>Catholics and Calvinists claim they're burning in hell

I've never heard a Catholic express that sentiment, and in fact have heard quite the opposite. Calvinism has no doctrine on this topic, nor have I ever heard any Calvinist express this view. Stop bearing false witness.

>Bishops have issued pastoral guidance in response to the recent introduction to mixed-sex civil partnerships, which says: “For Christians, marriage – that is, the lifelong union between a man and a woman, contracted with the making of vows – remains the proper context for sexual activity.”

>The church “seeks to uphold that standard” in its approach to civil partnerships, and “to affirm the value of committed, sexually abstinent friendships” within such partnerships.

>It adds: “Sexual relationships outside heterosexual marriage are regarded as falling short of God’s purpose for human beings.”

>The Civil Partnership Act came into force in December 2005, allowing same-sex couples to acquire a legal status and rights in relation to property, inheritance and tax entitlement. In 2013, same sex marriage was legalised.

>The C of E does not permit same-sex marriage. It allows clergy to be in same-sex civil partnerships as long as they are sexually abstinent.

Surprising to see a sane voice in leadership of the C of E, but there's no turning that sinking ship around as a church

I'm aware of the supposed rise in sexual abstinence. It is almost certainly being driven by males only, if pic related is any indication (nearly 1/3 young males being incel or borderline incel). Remember that men tend to exaggerate their sexual lives while women tend to downplay theirs, so these numbers are probably even more skewed than we think.

>Relative STD rates would be low if women were virginal in any significant degree

Yes. Virginity almost guarantees zero STDs. If women were chaste to any significant degree, why do we keep seeing increasing rates of sexually-transmitted infections? Quite a few males are sexless so it isn't them mainly driving this.

>Divorce rate is a relevant indicator of adolescent virginity among women

Yes. 0 sexual partners at marriage ensures a very, very low chance of divorce. Ergo high virginity in women, low divorce rate. Yet it's at 42%, saying nothing of failed unhappy marriages.

>Come back with the proofs.

I just did. You replied with "What?" to both.

>I can't think of anything more Jewish trying to convince Christian white men to give up on white women. Leave this place.

Already resorted to this I see. I don't care much for Jews or whether or not white people specifically are reproducing, you're the first to even bring that up. All I care about is the fact that marriage is an awful deal for men, regardless of race. I could just as easily accuse you of being a Jewish divorce lawyer who wants men to keep being trapped into marriage so you can profit off of their misery in divorce court, but I don't believe you are. I think you're just heavily misguided and yet another victim of "women are wonderful" effect.

You're moving the goalposts from "the odds of finding a virgin are analogous to the lottery, so men should just give up" to "most women fornicate", which has yet to be proven

No, STD rates and divorce do not serve as effective stand ins for virgin rates. STDs are heavily affected by high promiscuity of repeat fornicators, and lying about virginity is not the majority (is it even significant?) cause of divorce in the US. The rate is also influenced by repeat divorcees.

It is very telling that you went to these stats first when you had familiarity with studies that look directly at the topic at hand.

>Already resorted to this I see

If it quacks, I'm calling it a duck

I am not arguing that women are without fornication, or that it's better than it used to be, or even that a majority of Christian young women are virgin. I am calling BS on your demoralization campaign. It is very realistic to find virgin women of your own race among the more observant Christian populations.

Also, marriage is not a death trap. It is the created order by God for man to normatively pursue. MGTOW is dysgenic and has literal homosexual sources as a movement.

Sedevecantism would be like saying the Apostles were not appropriate leaders of the infant Church because Peter denied Christ and couldn't walk on water and Christ called him Satan at Caesarea Philippi, or because all of them except John abandoned Him at the cross, or, oh man, did you hear what that Iscariot guy did? My point is the Church has been corrupt and screwing up from the very beginning. Just like Adam and Eve ate the fruit. Just like Noah got drunk. Just like Jacob was a total prick. Just like Moses killed the Egyptian and struck the rock in the wilderness. Just like Samson was tricked by Delilah. Just like David committed adultery. Just like Solomon took concubines and foreign gods. Just like Israel screwed up over and over and over again.

Basically, just because the person or institution God chooses and ordains screws up doesn't mean that that person or institution isn't authentically under divine protection. Yeah, the Catholic Church is going through some bad times… but the worst time to abandon ship is in the middle of a storm. Will the human-led Catholic Church eventually have its authority revoked? Yes. Does it have divine authority right now? Absolutely. Will it antagonize God as the End Times play out? Probably. History repeats.

This is the central sacred cow presupposition of Roman catholicism and it is entirely fabricated. God did not choose and ordain the Roman church and the papacy, he gave us the gospel and instituted a universal priesthood.

Sedevacantists are honest enough to see the emperor has no clothes and try and explain it. Establishment Catholics plug their ears and try to rationalize why it doesn't mean the obvious.

The broken papal system is a non issue for your spiritual life because it's a self imposed restriction. If my pastor misbehaves, the church dismisses him. If my church won't listen, I take my family to an orthodox church. If there are no suitable churches, I move or I plant one.

the BISHOPRIC is founded on Peter. I'll take something most are familiar with: Canon 28 of Chalcedon:

"Following in every detail the decrees of the holy fathers, and taking cognizance of the canon just read of the 150 bishops dearly beloved of God who gathered under Theodosius the Great, emperor of pious memory, in the imperial city of Constantinople, New Rome, we ourselves have also decreed and voted the same things concerning the prerogatives of the most holy Church of the same Constantinople, New Rome. For the fathers rightly acknowledged the prerogatives of the throne of the Elder Rome because it was the Imperial City, and moved by the same consideration the 150 bishops beloved of God awarded the same prerogatives to the most holy throne of the New Rome, rightly judging that the city which is honored by the imperial authority and the senate and enjoys the same [civil] prerogatives as the imperial city of the Elder Rome, should also be magnified in ecclesiastical matters as she is, being second after her."

You can say all you want about Saint Leo not accepting it, but fact is this canon was considered ecumenical by the entire church (they also condemned a pope as a heretic, something that's impossible if you accept Vatican I… so the mindset of the Church was absolutely NOT Vatican I), and guess what? Leo didn't accept it because he thought it contradicted canons of Nicea. Nothing about a jure divino Papacy. What Saint Leo should have said, if Vatican I was true, is that the canon is HERETICAL. The 'holy fathers' did not give privileges to Rome, Jesus CHRIST gave these privileges (Matthew 16:18… so on and so forth). If you read Patristics, you know how much they honor and what language they use for Bishops (the Patriarch of Alexandria is called the Judge of the Universe… that's beyond even a Papacy if you think about it, that *literally* must mean that the Patriarch is like the Lord Jesus, a Judge of the Universe). The Filioque was banned by a council considered ecumenical by John VIII, before he was assassinated. The Filioque turns the Trinity into a Dyad, and it contradicts what Jesus said, that the Spirit PROCEEDS from the Father–the Son is BEGOTTEN from the Father. The Greek is very clear.

This passage brings to head why I so relate to Paul:

<For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am of flesh, sold [m]into bondage to sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good. So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

<I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin.

Recently, whenever I hear of people either irl or on social media talking about clearly anti-Christian concepts (i.e. "just chop your balls off bro its totally healthy" or "its MY body, I do what -I- WANT"), I get extremely heated and I have to hold myself back from overreacting. While I believe its perfectly healthy and even encouraged to react in the face of these, I don't think its particularly healthy to, for example, punch my phone screen in a rage.

Does anyone have advice for what I can do to calm myself so I don't go full Crusades mode on someone? Is there anything we can do to spread the faith and God's word to counter this widespread meme?

First off OP, I must ask unless you are trying to lead lives to Jesus why are you around unrepentant degenerate sinners?

<But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. (1 Peter 3:15-16)

To the unfaithful, bring the message casually to those in your general life. For example, everyone can spread the Gospel and defend the faith to their family and friends and make sure never to deny the tenants of Christianity and to make your position well-known and clear to those around you.

<You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 5:14-16)

Notice that it says that your light (faith) is seen through your good works, not angry and senseless argumentation. Behave in a way that will cause others to want to adopt your lifestyle. You don't do that by being a heated contrarian. It's one thing to have concise, well-informed cases for your position, delivered with understanding and compassion, and another thing to become visibly shaken and outraged by people who hold opinions contrary to Christianity and uncharitable toward them.

Further, I would recommend saving your passion for your field. If you are a teacher, promote Christian values (not facts) in your lessons in addition to your subject. If you are an economist or financial adviser, denounce usury and promote Biblically supported lending practices and methods of making money. If you are a politician, support pro-Christian legislation and public policy. Simply put, get paid to push the culture and economy towards the type of society God desires.

It has more to do with modern geopolitics than scripture or theology, if that's what you want to know. I wouldn't recommend watching it for entertainment either. The entire show is built around the mystery of the titular 'Messiah,' but it never really pays off. He could be the real second coming or a terrorist stirring up trouble, the show never really comes down on either side. It was left open-ended so Netflix greenlight a second season if it made them enough shekels.

Why is this bulls— in the Bible? Christians don't follow it. It goes against natural law. Everyone always finds some excuse to not follow it and those who do follow it are always literal soycucks or children. It's just bad advice and every adult has enough life experience to know this. It also directly contradicts other books of the Bible like the OT law and Sirach so why is it even there in the same chapter Jesus says to follow the OT?

The SBC culture is very cozy with the republican party, and boomers are in charge. Look up the ERLC if you want to go down a rabbit hole.

That's the point. Civilization is against natural law.

>It also directly contradicts other books of the Bible like the OT law and Sirach

Nope. In fact, it's arguably the most important commandment in the Tanakh. Leviticus 19:17–18:

>You shall not hate in your heart anyone of your kin; you shall reprove your neighbor, or you will incur guilt yourself. You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against any of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.

And when I say "arguably," It's worth mentioning that two people who made that argument were Hillel the Elder, one of history's greatest rabbis; and Jesus himself, in the three synoptic gospels.

<Why everybody let OP post image of Jesus in nazi racists uniform ? this is insult him .

>Why do you believe every lie that the Jewish media tells you about history? Remember: if you condemn National Socialism, you are logically obligated to also condemn Zionism on the same grounds. Both are racial political doctrines.

You didn't answer Analockman's question–not that I think you could. Given that that you cited Jesus' command to not resist evil as evidence of him promoting defiance, I expect your answer to be inconsistent "bulls–."

>To make japanese know Jesus?

We could start by demonstrating the power of God through fixing our own countries. If we would deport the Jew, along with his biological weapons and the endless degenerate media he produces, and set our national houses back in order, you'd better believe the Japanese would find that inspiring. But if we can't do it, then what is left to them but nihilism as the Jew turns his attention to their nation by leveraging our enslaved national power?

You write like a child. What you need to do right now is pay attention in school and get good grades. Don't believe everything your teachers tell you, think for yourself, but do what you have to do to get A's. You can start going to church when your atheist parents stop preventing you from doing so. Read about the different denominations, visit different churches, find one that works for you. Then you can look into converting.

If you aren't a child, I'm sorry to say that you are probably retarded. Sorry.

By that logic, we should ban mainstream movies that involve animals, since they are under constant watch and have frequent legal tangles with everyone from American Humane to Greenpeace and stuff.

As a sidenote, even if porn was in such a legal grey zone, it would been resolved by now, if only by invoking legal precedents by these supposed round the clock lawsuits.

For crying out loud, i think the porn industry is downright evil and exploitative, and even i think his train of thought is incredibly retarded, from a legislative POV.

Stupid argument since you're appealing to legal formalisms that could easily be changed such that they didn't conflict with the porn industry. If the laws were more biased towards them, they wouldn't be constantly litigated against; some method of proving their legality might easily be devised, and if the legal formalisms of things like "consent" are changed they might not even be problematic for the industry (furthermore, your argument implies that the worst filth imaginable like these porn studios produce becomes morally licit so long as all involved "consent". Did I wander into reddit?). Porn should be illegal because it's an unalloyed evil that damages everyone involved and has no benefit, that would also be extremely easy to limit the reach of.

>>11709

Lolbergs are terminally clueless. YoU wAnT a PoLiCe StAtE??? We already have a totalitarian police state that forcibly prevents people from resisting both invading foreign armies taking over their communities, and also prevents them from stopping gangs of sodomites highjacking main street for their parades of perversion. It's the manifestation of everything negative that there could possibly about an absolute tyrrany, with none of the promised security or order. The "authoritarian" western world was and will be a thousand times better to live in than Saudi Arabia, but even if it wasn't Saudi Arabia >>>>>>>> Clown World.

Poor definition. Gamma means a low-status male (usually a midwit) with an inflated sense of intellectual and technical ability, which is only flimsily maintained due to self-conciousness about his lack of actual achievement. Due to this psychology, gammas avoid actually taking chances on doing things with any risk of failure, since any failure would threaten to shatter their fragile self-image of secret unappreciated genius.

They also react extremely poorly to any negative feedback from figures of authority or people of perceived greater status, since negative feedback is a threat to their self-image as infallible intellectual titan. Hence they tend to sabotage any work they are a part of, since them feeling slighted by a superior is inevitable. They also tend to become ankle-biters who attack people they were formerly fans of when their attempts to instruct or become more closely involved with hese higher-status figures are inevitably rejected.
