      Think of it like Prohibition. It’s not enough to give up on fun. You need to make sure nobody else is enjoying themselves without you.

    So we are clear on the tenets of conservatism, they believe it is perfectly acceptable for a 50 year old man to rape a 12 year old girl, but two adult men having consensual sex in private is a crime that should be punished by death.

    The woman who accused then-Fox News host Pete Hegseth of sexual assault in 2017 said that while she did not have a complete recollection of the night in question, she “remembered saying ‘no’ a lot” and alleged that he prevented her from leaving his hotel room, according to a police report from the Monterey, Calif., police department.

    The student newspaper he ran in college suggested that you can’t rape someone who is unconscious.

    Furthermore, the leadership’s will to indoctrinate is demonstrated by such fiascoes as the aforementioned “Reflections on Diversity” and also “Sex on a Saturday Night.” The latter, a bemusing yet mandatory orientation program, revolved entirely around whether an instance of sexual intercourse constituted “rape.” The actual instance portrayed in the skit was in fact not a clear case of rape – at least not in my home state. (In short, though intercourse was not consented to, there was no duress because the girl drank herself into unconsciousness. Both criteria must be satisfied for rape. Unfortunately, the panelists never cited any legal definition of rape.) Yet the panel – all females in the session I attended – claimed that rape it was. Regardless of technicalities, this esoteric incident was the sole focus of the presentation. The panel ignored the mundane yet profound moral issues surrounding sexuality with which the student is confronted on a daily basis. The administration does the student body a great moral disservice when it implements a program covering the logistics of the one-night-stand, in a very permissive manner, while ignoring the metaphysics.

    He’s been married three times and is a serial adulterer.

    “Pete said he no longer believed in God and family values,” a source with knowledge of the call told Vanity Fair. “He claimed he no longer wanted to seek the limelight. He said, and this quote is as clear as day, ‘I’m a f***** up individual.’”

    I don’t think he’s a secretly gay or bi man. I think he’s the type that’s more worried that men will treat him the way that he thinks women deserve to be treated.

      As long as you clasp your hands in prayer and ask Sky Daddy for forgiveness (which he will grant just because you believe in him) you can do anything. No contrition, no atonement, only profligacy and crimes against Humanity.

        If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.

        Trump and his followers are so unbiblical that they seem to exist as a mockery of Christianity.
