  • The government is revoking the business license, not stripping Trump of assets. Trump still owns the business, but the court is now in charge of winding them down. All of the money is still going to Trump and family while this happens. The businesses will get sold off and Trump will get the money for that as well.

    People thinking like you will believe that the government is stealing Trumps properties, which it is not. He will be able to fund raise off of this.

    When the pieces are sold off, other companies can buy the assets as long as they are in good standing. Trump has businesses in other states not covered by this ruling, which is specific to New York state.







  • This is in a thread about a sect of Christianity. I am not aware of another religion that uses the word church. The dictionary definition is christian house of worship. Jewish Synagogue. Islamic Mosque. Hindu Temple. Norse Hof. Greek and Roman temples.

    Talking about taxing churches is about a tax on Christian houses of worship. There is no Christian religious rule against it, which means that it would be a stretch for anyone to claim that the government is violating the first amendment.



  • The concepts of racism was quite different then as to now and was addressed. Basically the story of the 'Good Samaritan" needed to add the ‘good’ because Samaritans were discriminated against and though of as poorly as racists do today.

    Homophobia is basically covered in a bunch of places where in general you are supposed to love and treat people well. Jesus gave MANY examples of directly treating people who were not in good social, or religious, graces with kindness,openness and compassion. Basically the worse someone is the more you have to try and show love. I’m not sure at all how basically the complete opposite is the practice. There is some epic level mental gymnastics to get there.

    Now slavery, umm… yeah. God was like , here are some rules on how to treat your slaves. You know because that is a thing and should keep being one. I’m glad this one is opposite in practice.
