For the record, I don't speak for JC, I just follow his ways and try to live by his teachings.
i understand you don't speak for him, but in your interpretation of the scripture and it's application in today's world, knowing what you've been taught, what do you think he would feel about the actions we are seeing from likes of the people at the "free speech" rally in charlottesville?
there's not a right or wrong answer here, and i'm not trying to bait you... i'm seriously just asking to gain context from a believer's point of view of the situation... i hope you are understanding my reason for the inquiry....

Oh, I've got no doubt he's got those blue collar, GED knuckles. He's made that abundantly clear.

I will pray that the mysteries of the Church will one day lift the veil from your eyes.

non-traditional conservative that favor white nationalism... they basically seek to preserve the "white race", while condemning "multiculturism"

As I thought for so, so long. Things are not always what they appear to be. My exploration of Orthodox teachings and understandings gave me a peace with the world that I did not know was possible. I am not denying the evils of man, and what he will do for the sake of his conviction, but the wisdom itself is not something to ignore. I legitmately hope that you will give a curious and open-minded glance at what can be found.

It has to do with your status as an American individual. It has to do with with what that means. It has to do with with your understanding of what that means.
When you ask members of the ISIS-minded anti-statue crowd about the history involving Roger B. Taney, or Thomas J. Jackson, or Robert E. Lee, or Thomas Jefferson, THEY HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE!
Some don't even know the name of the individual the statue commemorates. It's why that same anti-statue crowd of nitwits defaced the NewOrleans Joan of Arc statue. They are anti-intellectual morons.
Promotion of such ignorance and support of indifference to thought renders all of us victims . . . whether our skin is white, black, or purple with stripes.

unfortunately, that's not how they describe themselves... unfortunately, they are seeking a quasi-"white's only" establishment of America...
it's sad that people feel this way, but that's not my description, it's theirs... i'm just telling you how they describe themselves

the people in question, the ones that we saw at that "free speech" rally, have a pretty select view of what should be an "American individual"....
i don't understand the need to basically become an apologist for their ideology, while trying to sorta "clean it up" to make it palatable... just to be clear, you are defending a group that was carrying Nazi flags and reciting Nazi phrases... i fail to see how i should be aligning myself with ANYTHING they are saying....

so what does it mean, as you understand it? again, i'm not baiting, i'm trying to grasp your point of view... i know we may have gone at it in the past, but that is not why i am asking for clarity of your post now..... i am generally interested in learning your vantage point on this topic...

Why do you hate America though?

Apparently because pennypacker thinks I disagree with him.

That's akin to saying all progressives are SJW and advocate getting rid of white males

i don't understand the need to basically become an apologist for their ideology,
First off, you appear to be conflating the right to free speech via permit in Charlottesville with the FSM in Boston. I abhor the KKK. They make my skin crawl. But they were permitted, and under the 1stA, they have right to free speech. But it appears their effort was contradistinct from that of the FSM.
Second, in the instances of both Charlottesville and Boston, the right to free speech was abridged, deliberately and pointedly, by BLM/Antifa. In Charlottesville that occurred due to actions by the instigating mayor.
Third, there is no one I'm aware of on this forum advocating or apologizing for the KKK or Neo-Nazis. Far from it.
