This is a question i never thought i would have to ask.. But in recent the trump team has assigned the removal of slavery history specifically the bad sides of it from national parks and museums.

www.washingtonpost.com/.../

While the depictions and evidence of the literal scars of slavery are being removed from museums and national public spaces. Trump's team supports renaming forts back to the people who were on the side of the confederacy... let me make this absolutely clear. The confederacy wanted to keep slavery legal. To support confederate members and its confederate flag, is a support for slavery. Yes I get that some people claim the confederate flag is a symbol for southern pride.. but be real, its for the support of slavery.

Reinstating confederate names to Places like
Fort Barfoot
instead of honoring a medal of honor recipient that has no ties to the confederacy they chose to name it after a confederate army general George Edward Pickett

Fort Eisenhower
being changed to Fort Gordon, instead of honoring Dwight D. Eisenhower a former president who didn't support slavery, they instead chose someone that supported the confederacy. However with respect to Gordon's accomplishments in the war. Still Gordon was on the side that supported slavery.

Fort Gregg Adams
The current trump team wants to rename it back to Fort Robert E Lee, a confederate general. It was named Fort Gregg Adams, for Lt. Gen Arthur Gregg and Lt. Col. Charity Adams accomplishments in the military and they didn't have ties to the confederacy.

But I think you get the point.
Why allow so much confederacy praising in an america that doesn't want slavery?

Went to church... heard nothing about forgiveness, so thought I'd ask you experts... what does Jesus mean and does it apply.

Christ said forgive "your brother" 70x7 times... a lot. Matthew 18:21-22

The power of forgiveness is to change the hearts of others... and your own. Could forgiving one persons evil help to change the hearts of millions?

I don't see forgiveness as absolved of consequences. You want to turn away from Evil before it's done. See the temptation of Jesus by the "devil" for him to jump off a cliff. Devil was "rebuked" with scripture, even when Jesus was weak.

Matthew 4:1-11

Forgiveness is more beautiful than death, yes?

Lets say a male is dating another male... but that person is converting to a different gender... whom knows which one.

That can be really messed up if the first male didn't know the other other wanted to change in the first place, causing sexual frustrations. They may be confused themselves on their gender identity... maybe they should switch too, causing the other to lose interest?

Add to it, the person they are dating could be putting an emotional burden on them about how people don't like trans people and they call trans people mentally ill. Hurting the feelings of the partner might invoke the first person to fits of hatred and rage... pride... enough to do harm to others.

It all seems nuts, but in this mindset, it seems they may act out... and feel good about what they did.. because they are confused and kind nutty in the first place. Maybe they kill someone to defend the honor of their gender changing mate? It be justified to some to silence the voice harming the one they care for, might even feel good about it, but later, confused. People have been known to kill on command from others. doesn't' take much.

Lastly, do you think such people caught up in such gender, sexual, and relational confusions might possibly... have mental illnesses lurking? Like... some deeper issues that distort reality?

It's girls ask guys... so seems a valid psychological question.

It strikes me... without a reference point for what is sane, it's difficult to have that... sanity...

It's all conjecture...

Pros of a monarchy.

● No social and political division.

● Government works much more efficiently and is more stable.

● Conditions of the country will be more secure and far less crime.

● Government will have the best available public officials holding important positions throughout the country.

Cons:

● Unfair treatment of others and political power can be abused (but totally depends on the king in authority.)

● Some freedoms most likely will be gone i. e. no publically criticizing the royal family or disrespecting social officials like police officers among others freedoms like gay parades, porn abortions etc.

Pros of a democracy.

● The general public gets to elect politicians that represent their own interests whether good or bad.

● Every few years the populous can ask for change of their representatives.

● Far more freedoms whether good or bad.

Cons:

● Causes social and political division.

● Giving the people the power to vote who don't understand how government nor how the economy, energy, security etc works in depth causes voting in the wrong people into positions of power.

● Government operates and government agendas are slow and work far less efficient.
