    No, it's not too bad. I really don't want Beto live streaming his colonoscopy during his proctology appointment.

    I find it hard to believe that some religious organizations are scams. I was thinking of starting a church with this forum as a format. I'm calling it the Political Forum Church of Love. I'll be asking for donations to help fund the start up cost. So please send your tax deductible $100 Love Gift to;

    P.F. Church of Love

    Thank you and We Love You

    The very idea that there can be such a thing as a "nonprofit" should be eradicated. Volunteers don't, but people in the inner circle go home with a very nice salary. Eliminate all nonprofit status.

    Tax all and everyone equally with a flat tax.

    I disagree, we need to encourage not for profits to do more good, not less.
    Non profits do the jobs better than government without stolen money.

    More non profit work less government.

    "Pocahontas" Elizabeth Warren is a wannabe indian redskin scalping savage.

    Senior Beto O'Rourke is a wannabe lazy illegal alien Mexican.

    That's all the two talked about.

    this bible actually recommends not to marry... BUT says it's better to marry than to burn with passion

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1 Corinthians 7:8-9&version=NIV

    "
    8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am.
    9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

    Churches should lose tax exempt if the majority of their business isn’t charitable works.

    They believe in magical sky demons that love them unconditionally but only under certain conditions that had to commit suicide in order to rewrite laws that those sky fairies had previously written, they also hide child abusers... I don’t really care how they judge others. Judge them on their charitable work.

    Not the ceremony, but the commitment to each other under God, whether that is as part of a ceremony or not.
