565,776 | [0, 0, 0, 1, 0] | Yeah because Obama hasn't done anything to stoke the flames of hatred, right? | 5 | Don't give Alaskans too much credit, we're full of tremendous slouches..... Come election day I don't think you'll be 'disappointed'. If there's anything America has gotten good at, it's hate, thanks in no small part to Trump. That said, people have made Hilary worse than the devil herself. I'm not voting for her probably, but people are voting against her first and foremost this election- they're doing it in part because she's been demonized by the lowest common demonenator.
Whatever happens, she's going to get elected but there will be no shortage of people not voting for her because she is a woman and she is not voicing hate towards people based on their skin or religion. That's as far as critical thought goes for those who would embrace such things and there's plenty of those scholars here in Alaska, the state of a dying military (that was always astronomically too big to sustain) and a dying oil industry. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.5] | [45588938, 45485526, 45567747, 45252698, 45597975] |

Maybe it's about the lie that America's government bought those Black hills from the Sioux, even though they were never for sale and the Sioux Nation never took a penny of that money? The standing Rock people aren't trespassing but Dakota access sure is. Who did the surveys that cleared the area for the pipeline? Was the Sioux Nation a part of that clearance team? I guess a lie is a lie, depending on how you put it together and what your perception is. | 4 | The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s water intake is scheduled to be moved by the end by of the year.

Because if it doesn't then it should.
So far the only person who has given any indication of an unwillingness to accept the results of the election has been Hillary Clinton... or she wouldn't be working so hard to change the results in her favor regardless of what the voters have to say. You guys are something else. Where you get the stones to point your finger at Trump and accuse him of something that your own candidate is guilty of is just stunning. This type of progressive lunacy is the exact reason can never be trusted in positions of power or authority over other people no matter what. You have no scruples, no moral compass, no ethical boundaries. Lying and cheating are just fine if it gets us what we want. No thanks | 10 | Mr. Trump has stated very clearly that he "will accept the results of the election......if he wins." That, possibly, in his opinion is wry humor. On the other hand, given Mr. Trump's grandiosity, it may be an honest self-evaluation....."if I win, great, that's the way it should be" if I lose "obviously the election was rigged." ......the perspective of a megalomaniac is a trifle skewed. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45313149, 45397010, 45630512, 45451297, 45450096] |

Not the candidates and their campaigns, for as Elagabalus says, we know that Trump is nuts on this issue as well as many others, so the only rational vote on this issue is Clinton. Given the absurd nature of this campaign, I wouldn't expect her to go there.
The US Converence of Catholic Bishops, on the other hand, they should be blamed for not raising this issue as a factor. Because it is urgently relevant to an honest preoccupation with life. Because the universal Church has declared it the issue of our time. Because the bishops focus on abortion inclines those who care what the bishops think to vote for Trump and his party, who are on record as standing four square against trying to save our bacon on climate change.
May God have mercy on their anti-salvation stance. | 10 | Donald Trump is flat-out lying about the cause of climate change so that Big Oil and other major manufacturing polluters who are in league with the Republican Party won't have to see their profit margins decrease by one penny. Or, to put it another way, he's lying on account of greed.

In the mid-1950s, he was hired by Penn State to do a specific piece of research on diesel fuels, and the university told him he could use it for his dissertation. It was expected that it would take him three years and he finished it in 18 months. It was published, and on the strength of it, Shell Oil offered him a job at three times the salary Penn State was paying him. He went to the registrar's office and asked if he had enough credits for a masters in mechanical engineering (he already had one in math). He was told he needed one more course in ME and he asked if the course in diesel injection design would suffice. When he was told it would, he said "Give me credit for it, since I taught it the last time it was offered." | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45426626, 45456658, 45635376, 45485526, 45536013] |

Back to the article, the Cadillac tax is not about lowering tests and procedures. It is a tax, used to fund the expense of the ACA. | 4 | Health plans supplied by an employer are part of the workers' compensation. They get the health plan instead of wages. But the worker doesn't pay income tax on the value of the employer supplied health plan like they do on wages. So, high end companies give their employees the most expensive health plans instead of paying them higher wages and their employees can avoid paying income tax on the value of the health plan. It's a sweet deal for the company and the employees...no surprise since their lobbiests wrote the tax law which allows them to do this. The Cadillac tax is just requiring wealthy workers who get these high cost health plans to actually pay their fair share of income taxes on the excessive value of their health plan as if it were wages. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45408870, 45588938, 45450656, 45549646, 45606716] |

With a slight edit, I think Bevan's rant would be right on the money. He would have more accurately said:
"I completely and unequivocally reject thinking."
Because, with the slightest bit of actual thought, no one would claim that the bunch of armed a$$-clowns who took over the Malheur Wildlife refuge had anything in common with the peaceful protest of first Americans protecting their water resource against a rapacious corporation.

568,243 | [0, 0, 0, 0] | EGW testified to Jesus and revealed his life in her works.
Prophecy can concern future world events and can concern immediate events or past events. The Beast powers were prophesied as being literal powers and not spiritual powers in our hearts. This is a false interpretation......see Daniel and the Angel's explanation to him on Ch's 8 and 9.......they are literal forces to be expected by Gods people...... | 4 | Danny, the Spirit of Prophecy Testifies to Jesus the Christ and reveals Christ within believers:
“11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. <b>He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.</b> 12 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” Matt. 3:11, 12.
Ellen White was very active in “foretelling” the future; specifically regarding political/religious world events. Many have followed her example by applying Scripture in an attempt to understand future world events. But Prophecy is Spiritual in nature and does not concern this world. The “beast” powers, for example, in Scripture are spiritual forces ruling in human hearts; and by the power of Christ they are overcome and destroyed.

It is right & just to critique anyone who teaches that people should discriminate & oppress any group of people. Our Pope's stand on this issue is immoral just as if he had said that it is ok to keep black men from priesthood because of their skin color, as Jesus was a Jew, a white man. Our church also allowed black slave ownership.
The pope himself admitted that popes are not perfect & that he considers himself a sinner. He is correct. So are we all sinners.
I would critique your comment because there is just no feminine equality avenue. We are equally man - men and women, per God, in Genesis & Jesus does not state that men and women are different creations but one creation & not a creation anymore or less complimentary than black men & white men. Ordination has nothing to do with gender by the sacrament's obligations. God could have made us physically incapable-He didn't.

Pope Francis has free will Tridentinus so he can sin and preach hatred. He should not ever but he is allowing his human weakness of sexism to effect his preaching. I find this very sad too.

What part of that fact set applies to me, buying a gun for myself, to give as a gift, using my own money, with no renumeration nor quid pro quo from the giftee?
The 4473 asks if the person making the purchase is the intended -buyer-, in Abramski he was not. Note that per ATF's own FAQ gift purchases are explicitly legal, even for juveniles who could not purchase the firearm themselves.
https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/may-parent-or-guardian-purchase-firearms-or-ammunition-gift-juvenile-less-18-years-age
Yes. However, persons less than 18 years of age may only receive and possess handguns with the written permission of a parent or guardian for limited purposes, e.g., employment, ranching, farming, target practice or hunting.
[18 U.S.C. 922(x)] | 4 | You are absolutely incorrect. Let me be clear: it is perfectly legal to pay money for a firearm that you intend to give to another person. However, if your goal upon purchase is to transfer to another, you are NOT the legal buyer. I have handled enough federal criminal cases related to firearms to tell you this. Again, I agree you have the right to purchase a gun for another person. But if you purchase from an FFL and a 4473 needs to be completed, the person who is the intended recipient of the firearm should complete the 4473. So if you buy a gun for your spouse, your child or your friend, have them go with you and make sure there is an ATF 4473 that they complete even if you pay for it. See Abramski v US, 134 S.Ct. 2259 (2014), holding that the transaction you describe is prohibited by the Gun Control Act of 1968 and upholding Abramski's prison sentence. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45537352, 45536973, 45599028, 45476019, 45366683] |

You have consistently spoken and written against attempts by the Native Hawaiian community to better their conditions. You don't seem to include advocating that non-white Kingdom land-owners should also turn over all their lands to the State for the benefit of all. Rather, as you state here, Hawaiians contributed all the land to Hawaii's modern melting pot (however unwillingly). Yet they are the most dispossessed from that land today.

False. A scurrilous personal attack. My essential argument is that Hawaiian natives welcomed European, American, and Asian newcomers as full partners. The unified Kingdom embracing all islands and all people had never before happened and could not have been achieved without newcomer participation. Natives supplied land. Newcomers supplied capital investment, labor, and expertise. Natives eagerly engaged in cultural appropriation of written language, Christianity, and rule of law. It is both illegal and immoral for descendants of one partner to now demand land and power for themselves exclusively, which is what the proposed constitution for a "Hawaiian nation" clearly demands.

Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him." (Luke 7:1-3)
Even today's first reading speaks to the problem....when it tells us that a Bishop must be
"holding fast to the true message as taught so that he will be able both to exhort with sound doctrine and to refute opponents." (Titus 1:9)
A noble endeavor - indeed. But also what we are called to do. | 5 | Gee, I've always wanted to speak volumes with a single paragraph. It's not quite as impressive as Superman being to leap tall buildings in a single bound, but still...
I think what Pope Francis is trying to remind us of is that the Church by its nature must be counter-cultural to be effective. But being counter-cultural and trying to force change within the culture are two different things, and the latter is a very treacherous path.
Trying to influence the dominant culture by moral example and force of dialectic is a noble endeavor, but it is a mistake for the Church to get involved in shaping civil policy.

The failure of the Parental Notification Law begins with Mr. Minnery, Lt. Gov Leman and Alaska Family Action. In their single-minded zeal they crafted a voter initiative whose language and provisions failed to meet the simplest of standards for civil liberty in our Constitution--Equal Protection Under the Law. Those who live in Anchorage and have been witness to his efforts to promote discrimination against LGBTQ Alaskans will not be surprised at Minnery and Leman's inability to negotiate the concept of Equal Protection.The civil protections afforded by our Constitution cannot be treated as trivialities to be glossed over-- no matter what the goal.

Social ills (poverty, immigration, the environment) and grave moral ills (abortion, euthanasia) are not equivalent. Conflating abortion and euthanasia with social problems and broader social justice issues leads to moral relativism that renders moral and social issues as equivalent.
"Abortion and euthanasia “stand alone” among the evils and injustices in American life in 2016 because each is a direct, personal attack on innocent and vulnerable human life ....
How can we claim to speak for the marginalized and disenfranchised, if we are allowing millions of innocent children to be killed each year in the womb? If we cannot justify caring for the weakest and most innocent of God’s creatures, how can we call our society to resist the excesses of nationalism and militarism or confront global poverty or protect our common home in creation?” (Archbishop José Gomez) | 5 | Abortion is not defined either medically or legally as killing children. Unborn children are correctly referred to as fetuses in development. After Dolly the sheep we see to develop a fetus we just need one cell placed in an evacuated ovum. Each human cell carries the genome that can reproduce.

But, yes, we've had a number of members of the hierarchy/clergy who tried to 'stone-wall' and 'de-rail' what Vatican II began.
