Trump Says China Exports Are “Ripping Us Off” Donald Trump, while president and ever since, has kept on harping about China “ripping us off,” meaning China-made goods exported to the U.S. His remedy for it was to impose large tariffs on this China trading to try to discourage U.S. citizens from buying China-made products. And along with this strategy, Trump tried to discourage U.S. companies from having their products made in China. Donald Trump now asserts that, if he regains... Read more
Many Bible readers have thought Jesus’s language “born again” was something new. For, we read in the New Testament that Jesus told a man named Nicodemus, “Unless a man is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3 NIV). This language “born again” in the form of whatever Aramaic words Jesus used (for those Jews native tongue was Aramaic)—which is gennethe anothen in the Greek text and also can be translated “born from above”—may have been unfamiliar....

It produces the eminent Foreign Affairs magazine which is about U.S. foreign policy and international affairs. The CFR holds many panel forums open to the public, as they did Tuesday on Mid-East conflicts, especially those involving Israel.

The question, “Could Jesus Have Sinned?” has been much debated in church history. Thus, Christians have not agreed about it’s answer—yes or no. Most have been taught by scholars and pastors that Jesus could not have sinned. But many believers in Jesus have not accepted that teaching because it seems to conflict with many things, such as just being a complete human being. Did Jesus Ever Sin? Now, the main question about Jesus and sin should be, “did Jesus ever... Read more
The U.S. Has Lost Its Moral Compass The fact that the Republican Party chose Donald Trump as its candidate for president, even though he tried really hard to overthrow the government by overturning a fair election, shows that the U.S. has lost its moral compass. I therefore believe that November 5th will be the most important presidential election of my lifetime. If Donald Trump regains the White House, the U.S. will descend into a pit of hell. Folks, I have... Read more
Trump’s Crowds Donald Trump makes a huge deal about how many people he gets at his political rallies. He likes to tell the numbers, often exaggerating them. But now he’s catching flack from both the media and his opponent, Kamala Harris, about the people who leave his rallies early because he speaks so long. Harris said the other day that people are leaving Trump’s rallies early due to “exhaustion and boredom.” Trump recently fired back at a town hall meeting... Read more
Yesterday, I posted, “Tim Walz Ruled!” I meant that in the vice presidential debate last night between Democrat Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz and Republican Donald Trump’s running mate J. D. Vance, for most Americans watching it Walz won. How so? Morality was on the line, and Walz proved more moral than Vance. But that’s not what most expert analysts have been saying ever since, thus in the past 24 hours. Most of them claim Vance won the debate... Read more
WOW! There sure must be a lot of very capable high school teachers and football coaches out there in America! Democrat Tim Walz, who used to be one of them, proved it tonight in the only vice presidential debate, hosted by CBS, that will be conducted before the presidential election November 5th. He debated Republican J. D. Vance. J. D. Vance is Donald Trump’s vice presidential running-mate, and Tim Walz is Kamala Harris’s running-mate. Sixty-year old Walz—after many years as... Read more
According to medical practitioners, the U.S. is experiencing a mental health crisis that is especially commonplace among the Z generation (Zoomers: ages 11-26) and the Millennial generation (Millennials: ages 27-43). According to a study by George Barna, the U.S. medical community says nearly half of Millennials and over half of Zoomers “regularly experience anxiety, fear, and depression.” They say at least one in three Millennials have at least one diagnosable mental disorder. Barna Says Worldview Affects Mental Health A new... Read more
Who Is Jeff Flake? Jeff Flake is a cool guy in his viewpoint on politics and the way he expresses himself about it. In the U.S. presidential Biden administration, he has been serving as U.S. ambassador to Turkey the past two years. So, Flake is a Republican who has been working for a Democratic administration. How did that happen? I lived in Arizona for 25 years, and I’ve been an independent voter all my life who has always voted for... Read more
