I Am the Light of the World

12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.

I woke up to this news this morning and I was devastated. I was shocked that the head of our Nation's FBI would even think about doing something like this. It's been so shocking to me that I had to call into work this morning and tell them that I was mentally unfit to work today. Luckily my boss totally understood as he was devastated about Kash saying this as well.

I was lucky enough to find enough mental toughness to go in to work this afternoon and the office felt like they just attended a funeral - Everybody was so upset about this.

I really think it is time to look at replacing Kash with someone who would never think about doing something like this. It's just awful.

What fricking nonsense Japan is its own thing, but Chinese holidays are still celebrated by those who/ancestors got here before the Chinese civil war and broad secularization of China. Chinese new year etc are still huge amongst the diaspora.

Christianity is what our Democracy is derived from.

The basic fundamentals of republicanism predate Christianity and what rights we inherited from the Brits have nothing to do with Christianity. Speech, expression, juries, etc are secular notions than exist across cultures and religions.

It's a problem for the right in general. I like to talk about it as often as I can.

In the Hindu religion Brahma and Saraswati were husband and wife and father and mother of the Hindus.

In the Hebrew religion their father is Abraham and his wife was Sarai.

Both Sanskrit and Hebrew, at least their ancient forms, didn’t have vowels. We can take their consonants though and approximate their English consonants.

Brahma - consonants B-R-H-M
Abraham - consonants B-R-H-M

Saraswati - consonants S-R-S-V-T
Sarai - consonants S-R-Y

Total coincidence that the father of the Christians is the same 4 letters of the father of the Hindus


This right here is the frickin truth. And there are countless examples of this. When you cut through the symbology, these different religions are all telling the same stories. And the Hindus were at it long before the Christians. It drives them frickin nuts too. You could line up 30 examples of this and all they'll do is stick their fingers in their ears.

It is said that in Jesus missing years he was in India and studied the Buddist and Hindu religions.

Some of you fellas do need to get out more, lumping hindus and muslims together.....

Over half of the Chinese diaspora in this country follows no religion. And another 20% is Buddhist or Taoist...

18% of non Christian immigrants are conservative. The belief that if you don’t pander to nons who worship a pedo or a monkey elephant you will jeopardize conservative elected officials in the West is a fallacy.

18%

While this is true, and roughly over half do in fact lean conservative even though only roughly 30% are Christian, they are clearly an outlier when factored into the entire immigrant population.

Probably has something to do with being more intelligent and actually living under authoritarianism.

If you ever wanted to know where his allegiance lies, it is not with Christians.

So because you haven't seen Japanese and Chinese people practice their faith it doesn't exist. They were assimilated.
Thats special right there.

That’s almost a perfect description of assimilation.

You don’t see a big difference between that and Muslims blocking streets as the kneel on prayer mats?

Kash Patel bowed to his parents as a gesture of respect and to seek their blessings. This traditional Indian Hindu practice, known as "Guru Purnima," involves touching the feet of a Hindu guru to express respect and ask for blessings. In Patel's case, it was a way to honor his parents and their cultural values, which are deeply rooted in Indian and Hindu culture. The act of touching their feet symbolizes reverence and humility, reflecting Patel's commitment to his family and the values he carries with him.

I think there’s a difference between practical assimilation and rigid.

If I moved to India, I should learn language, respect customs, etc… and be a part of the day to day flow of society

But I think no shame in still celebrating Christmas, or catching a few American football games

The only Asian group with more Republican than Democrat registered voters is Vietnamese...

Vietnamese also have the highest share of Buddhist in this country.

There goes that theory.
