    then he got real pissed off and caused the flood that killed almost everything. and then he realized he went too far and said he
    wouldn't do it ever again.

    He didn't say He went too far, just that He wouldn't do it again.
    :-)


    i remember reading an interpretation where it said he regretted it and wouldn't do it again. if there is a god and all this is true then he probably did have regret since he promised to never do it again.

    He regretted making man -

    Gen 6:6 The LORD was very sad that he had made man on the earth.
    His heart was filled with pain.
    Gen 6:7 So the LORD said, "I created man on the earth. But I
    will wipe them out. I will destroy people and animals alike.
    I will also destroy the creatures that move along the ground
    and the birds of the air. I am very sad that I have made man."

    Gen 8:21 Their smell was pleasant to the LORD. He said to
    himself, "I will never put a curse on the ground again
    because of man. I will not do it even though his heart is
    always directed toward what is evil. His thoughts are evil
    from the time he is young. I will never destroy all living
    things again, as I have just done.

    Crash the economy
    Lead us into unnecessary war
    Cause social unrest to the point of unnecessary loss of life
    Lead to runaway inflation

    Create chaos, allowing billionaire sponsors to consolidate power, create even bigger monopolies, buy distressed assets for pennies on the dollar and manipulate the markets to allow allies to benefit from insider trading.

    Yes, things like that. You get it! ;)

    Okay - I don't think I'm communicating my thoughts good enough. :-)

    My point is if someone shared my religious beliefs/convictions
    100% then we would, by default, agree on policy me thinks...

    I would think it very easy that someone who matched my, or your, religious beliefs 100% might also be, for example, advocating policies that would:

    Crash the economy
    Lead us into unnecessary war
    Cause social unrest to the point of unnecessary loss of life
    Lead to runaway inflation
    etc.

    First, my beliefs are for the protection of life and personal
    freedom. I don't see how those would lead us into unnecessary
    war, not social unrest. However, society is constantly getting
    worse and worse, so advocating for morals could be seen as
    social unrest. But at the same time I don't advocate for safety
    at the expense of lowering moral standards.

    I didn't say that your beliefs would. I am saying that someone who shares
    your *religous beliefs* 100% might make a great *church* leader but still
    be a very horrible choice as the leader of a *country*.

    Which brings me back to my original point, people who vote *only* with their religious beliefs can cause a country a lot of problems if/when they get
    what they want.

    From what it sounds like, you are not one of those people, BTW.

    I don't have that much faith in my fellow man so, with that in mind, I would see that as messed up. I would find it difficult to be motivated to do anything if I knew I was going to die anyway.

    You still didn't answer my question. What standard are you basing that
    on?

    Moving to Religion sub.

    Ah - gotcha. Now I understand your position.

    Okay - let me be a little more direct. If someone 'supposedly' shares
    your belief but you think they would ruin things, do they really
    share your beliefs?

    In other words, if someone shares your beliefs about transgender,
    that there is only two genders, would you support them? Because
    if you believe that's not positive for the country as a whole,
    then do you really have that belief to begin with?


    That is an easy answer. The fact I agree with somebody does not mean he is apt for a position. I might support his ideas but think he is not a good candidate because he is incompetent.

    Okay - so if two candidates are both competent and capable, would you
    vote for the one that shares your beliefs or not?

    In the US, we've got real good at nominating persons who are questionable
    in both categories for at least the last 3 Presidential elections. There
    are many Americans who think it is OK to nominate/elect a real turd so long
    as it pisses the "other side" off, or so long as that turd "checks a box."

    For at least a few, pissing the other side off is the only qualification necessary. For more than that, checking a box is the only, or most
    important, qualification.
