Liberals support ` Government for the People ` which can be inefficient as the focus is not on $$$s, but on People
Conservatives support Corporate Control which puts $$$s before people, as profits increase so does greed, power & control
As corporate power increases, corporate control over govt. increases ( Epstein had no USA clients ? : )
Corporates working with govt was Mussolini`s definition of Fascism ( USA today ? ? )
Liberals support community, Conservatives support competition as the means to attain economic power
Community gets lost with Conservatives – as we are a pack animal this leads to increasing stress, mental illness & suicides : (
The USA is desperate to stay top dog – for that we need the new ` freedom ` of increasing Greed & Selfishness
Greed, Selfishness & $$$$s ? ? ? Were they not the ` Evil ` the bible tells us We Must Overcome
To Bring People Together & To Create ` A More Harmonious World ` : ) ? ? ?

Wait, can we pause on this part for a moment 0:53, what did that guy say? So their Christian Students are now deciding to become an ultra-conservative, religious-based political movement that seeks to overthrow the government and then establish their own in which they are in power, and their ultra-conservative views are forced on the general population? WTF!
Edit: I remember that the word in Latin for students is discipuli, in Aramaic it is probably tlmyd. In Hebrew its talmidis, English they would be calling themselves, at best, pupils or practitioners and, at worst, disciples, but to say Taliban would imply they want to take their Christian movement up in Arabic… but um… there are always other non-English languages like Latin, Aramaic, and Hebrew (although that is more Jewish, like the Old Testament, which I mean is like the issue with Christianity that I have; the Hebrews took an Egyptian minor god and stories and rewrote them making him all-powerful and their god, then the Christians rewrote that book into Aramaic and added a new character, which then became Latin, then later transcribed to English, and then the Muslims took that book and rewrote it and added Muhammed and then put it in Arabic, all three are in Coptic for study in Egypt but mostly Coptic is Christian so I suppose that there is no way for them to not use a different language, but they are using the word Taliban, which is ya know, it just feels wrong. There are many translations of that word that would make them sound less extreme; however, they are extreme, and I want it to go away.)
I am not at all saying that Jesus or Muhammed or Moses did not exist or positively influence the world, but what if they all used the Coptic word ⲥⲏⲟⲩⲓ which I do not know how to pronounce because it is not in the dictionary, instead I found it in a book from 1939 that I have not read entirely and I have never heard the language spoken live although I am sure if I traveled there I would pick it up quickly.

Why did God screw up America to the way it is now, by having people do his will, only to now feel he must send someone in his name to fix the way it is back to the past? If it wasn't him and was the devil and his influence instead, then he must have been more powerful then God to have created the mess it has become now that needs Someone to fix it now as you Christian adults say

The problem with Relgion compared to being like myself, Not Relgious, is that I have no interest or care to change you're beliefs and try to convince you to believe what I do to somehow lend my belief legitamacy. Almost every Religion does not respect the same in reverse and will try to convince me to believe what they do. They manipulate laws that then make all of us in a Country obey their beliefs, like taking away gay rights as often as possible, attacking Trans people, changing abortion to follow their beliefs and not the pregnant woman's choice. Again I'm not interested in making you follow anything I believe through laws. You have freedom of Religion for yourself but yet you choose it for you're children instead of let them be educated and reach the age of majority and choose for themselves. It's because there would be almost no Relgious people anymore if you allowed it. You're Relgion and God of the Christian faith are responsible for it's devoted followers being responsible for more human deaths and murders in it's name and advancement then any group to have existed in human history, even the Nazi's. No person has ever heard "In the Name of Nothing" before they were murdered for my beliefs and never will be. Yet people willingly and conciously join this group thinking it is "good" "just" "righteous" "holy" and somehow going to bring humanity together when it preaches only it's followers will be saved during "the end of days." Again my beliefs don't specify only I shall be saved and others who think like me, I'd like to see all of humanity saved. I probably am a more caring and empathetic person then most Christains are but their Relgion will leave me to perish while saving a murderer who is absolved of sins that killed 100 Muslims for instance but happen to be Christian, goes to church, and believes in God. You're God seems harshly discriminant and unforgiving to me, vain in the fact he gave us free will but then doesn't want us to use it not to believe in him, why would you're God to that to me? Allow me to accept everyone regardless of sexuality, race, belief and not require me to hate anyone for who or what they are…..I've never understood how Christians see that as "good" traits and teachings when painting people with same brush is not a "good" thing, or discrimination, or killing someone because they believe something different then you. How is a book 1000's of years old hold any relevance in the modern times and reality when people believed in magic, gods were stars moving across the sky, and had no idea what mental health was like we know today which is a plausable explanation for what Jesus saw and heard back then….he may of been a man suffering bi-polar disorder and having hallucinations and no one knew how to help him

Dickhead does not know his history. In Antebellum America, it was considered unconstitutional to place "In God We Trust" on currency as it may have violated the First Amendment. During the Civil War, however, in response to increased religious fervor, Congress passed legislation to allow for the motto to be used on coins. It first appeared on coins in 1864. The founding fathers NEVER would have allowed it.

I believe in the Norse God's to make religion fair again, can we have our 2 holidays back Christmas and Easter, that would be a awesome act of the God's. You can still celebrate our holidays we have no problem with Christian's celebrating pagan holidays, just remember when you decorate that tree it's a Scandinavian tradition, when you have that feast on ham it's a Scandinavian tradition whenyou hang the mistletoe its also Scandinavian, when your coloring eggs and celebrating remember your honoring a Germanic goddess. And trump is a money man, i don't know much about Christianity but i dont think Jesus and trump would get along that well. Didn't Jesus freak out and turn over a table or something watching people like trump in action lol

All I see are a bunch of scared white people who refuse to acknowledge there are other races here. They use God as a racist tool. They don't preach love and understanding they preach hate and division. So sad and pathetic using the church as a political tool. I hate organized religion that uses it to start wars or forces people to call their neighbors and friends Demons. All I see is hate spewing from their mouths.

We on the left don't like you and your brand of Christianity. It is NOT the teachings of Christ. It is a bastardized version and you compare Trump to Jesus. You can do whatever you want in America except go against our constitution. Go move to Russia where you can have the illusion you want of a Christian white nation that pretends to be a democracy.
