The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration,
politics without God, heaven without hell.
William Booth
“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
― William Saroyan
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill
Ignorance is not an opinion, liberals
I believe in Christianity as I believe the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. C. S. Lewis
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
THERE WILL BE NO THREATS OF ANY KIND AT THIS BLOG, TO POLITICIANS OR OTHER COMMENTERS. thank you.
No sure way to know. Can’t trust the news organizations’ numbers, trends, statistics, polls . . . .
Common sense would dictate that a productive and successful vulgarian with 4 years’ experience SHOULD win over an emaciated and periodically animated cadaver whose half century of legislative and executive activity is characterized by faulty judgment, corruption, and illicit wealth.
But . . . we mustn’t ignore the power of stupidity in great numbers.
A Dem win, especially with substantial gains in both houses of Congress, would signal the beginning of the end of this Grand New World Experiment. A Trump win would merely postpone the inevitable for another few years, 6 at best . . . since it would take a liberal administration at least 2 years to overcome the residual strength of what DJT would accomplish in a second term.
I’ve been wrong in my picks for every election since G.H.W. Shrub managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in ’92, so I ain’t gonna commit on this’n.

Good morning from Georgia. It is almost 7:00 AM and the power has been out since 5:00 AM. Tropical storm Zeta is making herself known with 50 mph wind gusts and flash-flood warnings. Trees are down in many places in North Georgia leaving over 700K people out of power. My UPS for the Internet service and my laptop battery should go for another three hours.
Talking about Georgia, WSB radio reported this morning that the latest GA presidential poll has Biden up 5 points in the state. That could be true, but I doubt it. WSB is owned by COX communications, the same company that owns the liberal fish-rag Atlanta Journal-Constitution. So, this looks like one of those voter suppression polls. At worst, GA is a toss-up.
Not sure who will win, but by all accounts Trump is gaining on Biden, fast. It is easy to let one’s emotions rule, so I will retire my guesswork until it is all over, then claim I was right all along.

I have no inside knowledge of polling that no one else has.
It defies logic that Biden could be up in voter favorability.
It makes sense that he would be up in the polls.
Like Bob said: “voter suppression polls.”.
Now, I’ll get subjective.
You ask who I “think” will win.
I think God has a plan for this nation and I think He put DJT in place.
I think DJT has performed His will.
I don’t think He will pull the rug out from under him.
God is allowed to “voter influence” and rural voter turnout is up significantly, and we know what that means.
But I believe there will be a battle in the courts and perhaps the streets.

Nothing for even idiots to get excited about and frankly I just do’t believe there are enough TDS sufferers to get the job done. I apologize for trying to inject logic into this.

FROM A FRIEND ON FACEBOOK WHO IS VOTING THIRD PARTY (WHO? I don’t know and I don’t honestly care):
“When I consider the remote possibility that I might do any good by endorsing the devastation already evident in the two choices before me, I am loath to undermine my calling (and the church’s mission) to stand for Christ-exalting faith and hope and love. I will be asked to give an account of my devotion to this life-giving calling. The world will ask. And the Lord of heaven will ask. And my conscience will ask. What will I say?”
MY RESPONSE:
“Voting Third Party is a fine choice; it is OUR CHOICE as all voting must be. Most people I know believe this is not the election to do so as we feel too much is at stake. And yes, from years of having a blog, I know that many feel “if not now, when?” Only “not now,” is my thought for today. I have hope and faith and love and I know many Christians who feel the same and are voting for one candidate we don’t necessarily admire on many (many) fronts, but know will protect our country’s sovereignty which I believe is part of God’s plan, and our faith options and much more. And that’s me on this subject, ready or not! I enjoy dialogue with you, too.”
She’d posted articles by John Piper and others clearly aiming at Trump’s “immorality”…of course, Biden dated Jill while she was married to someone else and publicly blamed the man who was in the accident which killed his wife and daughter for being DRUNK that morning (The sheriff and the man said he was NOT drunk but the man went to his grave feeling humiliated, according to his daughter) and I believe that is immoral, too.

BAYSIDER “This election is not about a man. It’s a vote for or against the republic.” NO doubt about it. By the way, I’m not real sure most people would even think to use a ballot…and if they don’t sign correctly on the envelope, it won’t count, anyway.

I had to re-arrange a bible study member’s prayer a bit, and offer it here for all of us who serve the Lord as we approach this day:
“Lord, you have told us that “The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, as the rivers of water: He turns it wherever he will.” As our elections approach we rest in the comfort and gratitude of this Proverb (21:1). We thank you for the privilege of having a say in our governance, and ask for your wisdom as we execute our responsibility in a way that aligns with your will and gives glory to you.”
