So, just this once , I'm the idiot of the story. Thread title should be changed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skliss Posted December 15, 2017 #30 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Just throwing this in....If anyone knows anything about Marian visitations, she always appears as a woman resembling the populace of the person she's appearing to...for example the Lady of Guadeloupe appeared as a native and spoke in the language of the Aztecs. Who's to say Jesus has only one look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jim Posted December 15, 2017 #33 Share Posted December 15, 2017 The mayor can say it's because of Trump. He could blame it on sunspots or the phase of the moon too but that doesn't make it so. Trump merely acted on a law passed in 1995. Nothing earth shaking about it. It doesn't surprise me that a Muslim mayor of a town popular with Christians, especially at this time of year, would take any opportunity to express his hate for one by inconveniencing the other. Muslims have hated both Jews and Christians since before Trump was born. This is just the excuse du jour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHaYap Posted December 16, 2017 #34 Share Posted December 16, 2017 To be fair, the Trumpotus didn't exactly help matters or himself and one can almost say this was exactly what he was planned for, all part of his Art of the Deal ... ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOW many? 80 years ago, the population of Syria was nearly 30% Christian. At the turn of this century it was 10%. Care to guess at what it might be today? 18 hours ago, Setton said: (Because, no, believe it or not, Jesus was not American. Shocking, I know.) And as your countrymen have been saying for centuries, God is an Englishman, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
