Default An interesting fact...


Matthew 22:21 Jesus said "Render to Caesar the things that are
Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's." Romans 13:1 "Let
every person be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there
is no authority except from God and those which exist are established
by God."

In no jurisdiction that I'm aware of, Christian, Agnostic,
Narcissistic, or otherwise, are children allowed to accompany their
parents to jail.



I'd say your righteous, self-centered, "**** you" attitude towards the
poor is trumped (great word, eh?) by this:


Matthew 25:34-40 King James Version (KJV)

34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world:

35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave
me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee
an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed
thee?

39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me.


Oh, and the Trump administration is *deliberately* separating kids from
their parents, sending the kids thousands of miles away, dragging babies
into court, abusing the kids, et cetera. That is not the usual way the
government treats the innocent kids of the parents it imprisoned. Also,
it is not usual to imprison those seeking asylum.

Harry, speaking of your self-righteousness you ignore the parable of the great wedding banquet.

Matthew 22:

“8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.

10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

14 For many are called, but few are chosen.”

Straighten up Harry. Do something worthy with your life.
