A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

What was noticeably absent from all of these claims of God protecting Trump was any reference to Corey Comperatore, the former fire chief who was killed by a bullet meant for Trump while using his body to shield his family at the rally.

This, Jones said, speaks to the dangerous divisions that result from claiming that God was protecting Trump but not anyone else.

If this was god's trolley problem, then god is a dick.

@SoupBrick @HunterOfGunners Yeah...as a #Christian myself, it's really cool to see nonreligious people attributing #Trump's survival to #God or at least some form of "divine intervention", but I'm a bit surprised none of them are also blaming Him for the other casualties, or for this situation even happening in the first place.

That checks out, they’re idiots.

If it was "god" then it's safe to say the nick was meant as a wake up call for him to stop being so evil and anti-democratic.

The whole divine intervention aspect of it is just weird.

Yeah because people usually stop believing in fairy tales when they're about 6 years old.

Some of us never believed them to begin with.

Strange you let this one stay but you deleted my previous posts... They both make republicans look crazy. Are you just not personally insulted by this one?
