To paraphrase, "A free people as a whole cannot afford hatred or love" because a house divided against itself cannot stand, and we cannot all share the same loves or hatreds or preferences or desires. To love everything (or hate everything) or tolerate everything would ultimately result in the destruction of what is the public good. Love the sinner but hate the sin would be reduced to love the sinner and the sins, leading to a people of self-delusion.To stand with the ones you love and against that which threatens them is to take a side. Their is no honor in total surrender to evil. Sometimes you have to fight, whether fueled by love or hatred. Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: William Graham Sumner quote The 'Forgotten Man' indeed. I'm surprised Sillick didn't chime in on this one as he is a classic A&B man... Reply E Archer, NYC Denise, DURANGO (9/23/23) Hence the war on 'identity' being waged in liberal society. People that don't know who they are can be easily manipulated."Know thyself." 3 Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: John F. Kennedy quote All problems are solved by first taking responsibility for them, not blaming others or complaining "when are 'they' going to do something." Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: Justice Antonin Scalia quote Utopians substitute their own dogma and call it 'reasonable.' Reply E Archer, NYC Mike, Norwalk (9/23/23) An inconvenient truth that progressive 'liberals' refuse to acknowledge... Reply E Archer, NYC Mike, Norwalk (9/23/23) Thanks, Mike! You've nailed it, once again. 1 Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: Crockett v. Sorenson quote Lest we forget, historically schools were established by churches. Harvard and Yale were founded as seminaries. We have come a LONG way, baby, eh? Secular, progressive liberalism is a poisonous lie. I for one have had my fill of it — blecch! Reply E Archer, NYC Bryan, Greenville (9/23/23) Well, said, Bryan. Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: Lucius Annaeus Seneca quote Hmm, I think what Seneca was trying to elucidate was that there is always work ahead of us and to neither take an attitude of complaisance or defeat. Reply E Archer, NYC 9/23/23 re: Justice Hugo L. Black quote The proof of the Creator is self-evident — the creation bears witness to itself. We need not to have been present for the act of creation to acknowledge the intelligent design of the human body, plants and animals, even the physical laws and the geometry of mathematics — absolutely ingenious and humbling. What a pity for those that cannot see it ... Reply E Archer, NYC Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown (9/23/23) I cannot even begin to tell you how absolutely wrong you are, Fred... what would be the point? Reply E Archer, NYC Mike, Norwalk (9/23/23) Before the creation of the "US citizen" after the War Between the States, people were recognized as citizens of the State in which they were born or naturalized. Americans need remember that each state is sovereign, not subservient to the rule of Washington DC. Each state is a republic. Each county within a state is a republic. This is how a republican form of government is formed.Let us return to true republican governance, the citizen being sovereign over himself/herself from which the power of representative government is derived. Each state has a Constitution establishing a republican form of representative government — not so-called 'democracy.' This point can never be hammered home enough. 2 Reply E Archer, NYC Waffler, Smith, Arkansas (9/23/23) How about the recent revelations that the CIA was involved in JFK's assassination? Oswald was a CIA asset. in the immortal words of Sleepy Joe, "C'mon, man!" Reply E Archer, NYC TruthSeeker, CoonTown (9/23/23) This is classic Satanism. The convoluted twisting of words to fool Christians into turning the devil into God. When Luciferians refer to God, they are referring to Lucifer. This is just one example. The father of all lies knows no bounds to lead men astray and into bondage. "The devil cites scripture for his own purposes."But it is never too late wake up and turn it all around. It takes few words to tell the truth... the truth shall make you free. Reply E Archer, NYC warren, olathe ks (9/23/23) The war in Iraq was started under false pretenses, Warren, which we have learned now many years later. The very first thing the Bush administration did was lay claim to the oil fields. If you read the Iraqi Constitution that followed, it barely resembles that of the USA. Rather than being the rule book for the government on what they can and cannot do, it is a very long rule book for the people that grants the government the power to enforce. BIG difference. The US government didn't come to the aid of a people fighting for their freedom, they came to install a government that would be beholden to and necessarily propped up by them for decades to come. Once the US military left Iraq to its own devices, the Islamic fundamentalists took over. The war in Iraq was a big boon to the US military-industrial-complex as well as the Bush's personally and their 'club.'The controlled demolition of the Twin Towers is self-evident to anyone who is willing to look at the cold hard facts. And it was the excuse for invading Iraq — yes, it was an invasion and yet another coup d'etat to add to a very long list of US government-led 'nation-building' under the auspices of world government. Not a republican form of government I might add, either. 1 Reply E Archer, NYC 8/24/23 re: George W. Bush quote 1 Reply E Archer, NYC Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown (8/23/23) The tenets of socialism are hardly 'new.' The evils of socialism have been known for a LONG time. What is 'new' is that the educational systems of the Western world have all been coopted by socialist ideology, as planned by the socialists when establishing departments of education back in the 19th century, being perfected in the 21st... 1 Reply E Archer, NYC E Archer, NYC (8/23/23) Yes, let us hope the Sons of Liberty shall rise again! Reply E Archer, NYC Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown (8/23/23) Socialism is hardly transparent. It is rule by the money printers who create the money out of nothing and then lend it at interest guaranteeing perpetual progressive debt forever. It is a Ponzi scheme of the highest order with rivers of wealth and labor flowing to the centralized rulers of all. Fred you are a willing dupe. Reply E Archer, NYC 8/23/23 re: Abraham Lincoln quote I find it interesting that so many quotes that expose the Rothschild banking cartel throughout history have been 'debunked' and so readily chastised by socialists / leftists. Most don't even know what a republican form of government even is and how it differs from all the rest, including so-called 'democracy.' Anyone who has spent more than a few hours studying the history of the world and banking over the last 5000+ years knows how the nations of the world have been coopted by the money printers and the debasement of currency. Oldest racket since the beginning of time. Reply E Archer, NYC D. H., Detroit (8/23/23) Logan was being facetious ...
