Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"
80% held up their hands.
The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, an avid golfer named Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.
"Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
"I don't have any," he replied gruffly.
"Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
"Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands.
"Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?"
The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply –
"I outlived the bastards."
Tro
it takes 2 to tango does is not ?
Both sides have done it,are doing it ,which one is right and which one is wrong ?
Same as Brexit did here ,but not all remainers are bad and not all brexiteers are bad can you not acknowledge that ?
History will decide not us mere mortals ........
Mick
lenin,mao ,castro,hitler,etc ....whats the difference .
I think its pushing it a bit to put the Donald in that category ,bit of realistic perspective please .
Remember children might be reading ,you will scare them ;-)
Mick it is not Biden that worries me ,he is just a puppet and probably wont make the full term ,its the handlers that are the problem ?
Unless the centrist,s in the senate show some balls and make some good decisions .
As long as it doesnt decend into civil war beforehand !!
Mick i know what is right and wrong,thank you .
The far left is really bad and so is the far right .
What is happening now is a far left purge and i dont think it will end well imo .......
Tro ,unfortunately it appears that Biden is falling into the same trap,is he not ?
History teaches us that mistakes are often never learnt ...........
Mick
Normal people ??
By my reckoning most normal people voted for Brexit (they had the majority)
And voted for Boris (parliamentary majority,massive btw......or am i mistaken ??
Therefore it is you who is not normal ,but dont worry i wont hold it against you ,i am not that sort of guy ;-)
Tro ,dont you get it ,i agree with you ,but it is happening on both sides ,i can post and put up vids of equally shocking stuff from the left ,but i dont really want to .
Do you understand same **** different colours????????
Tro ,its interesting you say that and the left always holds up Hitler as the standard bearer of the right.
Todays right wing thinkers are populists ,no where near the fascists,and its a shame that the best people can do is paint anyone with a different view as such .
How many did Lenin kill ?Mao ? Pot ? etc mmmm look it up,you will be shocked
As i say same **** different colours .
The mantra of todays right for you all to understand
We dont give a toss what colour you are ,what sexuality you have ,what religion you follow,so please stop tarring everyone with the same misguided brush and learn to accept different opinions .
Mick if you dont have healthy discussion and points of view from both sides you end up with the extremes ,which is what we have now .
When i was at college we were given assignments on topics and you had to argue for and against certain topics(teaches you to see the other point of view) ,people dont do that now which is why we are in the mess of divided nations across the west .
Every party has good and bad points and policies ,but everyone has been pushed to the extremes,and the more you push the worse it is going to get .
Tro
Dan bongino is being targeted ,ex secret service,smart guy ,knows a lot of what is really going on imo.
Listen to it ,you may not agree ,but it is designed to make you think ??
p.s he is now a fascist according to MSM ,dont make me laugh ........
Tro ,who decides what is a fascist site ?? The government ?Twitter ?Facebook ?
What about sites that allow Antifa messages and discourse ?What about the summer riots and the burning and looting in the cities?? Where was the condemnation and revulsion from the Democrats and the media? in fact i would say they were complicit in perpetuating the unrest.
It is one rule for one group and another for the other side .It is exactly what Dictators do isnt it .
So who is the dictator here ?
Have you ever listened to or read some of these sites or listened to the videos?
People should be allowed to come to their own conclusion as to what they believe ,rather than being censored or controlled by the state ,and by that i mean the extremes on both sides .
IMO the left is now inciting the right by banning and blocking free speech ,is that not an incitment to riot according to the faux outrage from the MSM and Biden re the events of last week ?? Think about it because it wont end well if they go down this path will it .
I may not agree with your opinions but you always have the right to voice them IMO,as long as you do it in a reasonable way ,whats wrong with that ?
Yin/yang ,front back ,2 sides to every coin !!
Nice to see you lot have got over your Trump issues lol
Hopefully you can get over your Brexit ones soon too !
Meanwhile good ol Joe is uniting the USSA by ****ing off half the population in cahoots with big tech by banning conservative sites and commentators ,the cultural revolution has begun (oh you conspiracy theorists that predicted what was going to happen ,and are now being proved right ),ah well take away peoples freedom and we know what comes next.
I am sure i spotted a few of you in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G0UXnXpABw
Welcome to the new left wing totalitarian fascist dictatorship of the Democrats .
p.s how ironic that Biden takes control in the chinese year of the Rat .
Love ya wouldnt be ya ;-)
Got to go before Mick takes away my computer in the re-education camp .
Long live free will and free speech ...........
Yep watch for bond yields hitting 2% then get the f outta stocks imo.......
Personally i think you know what to do before before jan 20 ,dont you ?
Taken from the BBC (yeah i know unbelievable )One rule for the left and one for the right (last paragraph)
Black Lives Matter protester among Capitol rioters
A prominent left-wing activist from Utah was among the pro-Trump mob, according to multiple videos from Wednesday's invasion of the Capitol.
But John Sullivan, 26, says he was just there to "document" it.
Sullivan is the founder of Insurgence USA, which calls itself "a group for racial justice and police reform".
In a series of media appearances after the riot, he defended his involvement, saying it was important for people "to see the truth" and "see it raw".
When air force veteran and Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt was shot inside the building - the first known casualty of the violence - Sullivan and an associate were at close range. They later provided video to the Washington Post.
Sullivan - who currently faces two criminal charges that stem from a separate protest in Utah - also spoke to major media outlets, including CNN and Fox News, on Wednesday and Thursday.
Following these appearances, he was briefly detained by DC police, but he does not appear to have been arrested and formally charged for his role in the security breach.
Looks like more jobs for our boys in the future,Brexit bonus eh ;-)
