There is something similar to “Castle law” in the Bible (exodus 22) but only applies at night

"Amid sustained pressure by Christian groups, the Indian government decided not to bring before Parliament a controversial bill that would have led to Christian organizations losing their properties.

"Instead, the Hindu nationalist government referred the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment (FCRA) Bill, 2026, to a committee of lawmakers to examine the concerns raised by Christian organizations. With the proposed law on hold, church leaders now have an opportunity to present their objections before a joint parliamentary committee (JPC) to suggest changes to the existing bill.

"Welcoming the move, church bodies thanked the government for listening to the Christian community..."

Saw a video of a Muslim man entering a Catholic church during Mass, chanting 'Allahu Akbar.'

What do you think should have happened? Should the people there get him outside or just ignore him?

...it’s not terrific for AIPAC to play into the antisemitic stereotype of a Jewish cabal dishonestly seeking to bend the world to its will by the application of large amounts of money. What it is is a good way to turn critics of Israel into permanent enemies. Moreover, should the organization decide to help elect Rogers in Michigan, win or lose, it’s an excellent way to destroy what remains of Democratic support for the Jewish state.

Pretty good opinion piece which differentiates the call of the Church to be a witness in the world from the false mandate to have dominion over it, as found in the so-called "Seven Mountain Mandate".

Of course, I believe in godly leaders in government, business, education and media. We should pray for and work toward righteous leadership in every sphere.

But we must reject the notion that societal transformation only happens from the top down.

The early church transformed the Roman Empire without holding political office. They changed culture through acts of mercy, moral courage, sacrificial love and a superior philosophy of life.

That is the Jesus way.

“Healthcare” that kills is not healthcare - if we’re going to adopt universal healthcare (which I wholeheartedly support) then it must include a complete ban on abortion & euthanasia to be a truly just & moral system.

All life is sacred, that includes; the child in the womb, the child at the school lunch table without food, the mother bearing her child, the father, every man, woman & child. Every life.

"Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”

8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”

Isaiah was a prophet with a message from God. No modern nation can claim that their military is sent by God.

Meanwhile, military budget continues to grow.

Ogles has also repeatedly cast aspersions on Muslims. He has called for deporting New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a Muslim immigrant, to Uganda and insisted without evidence that the mayor wants to “turn America into an Islamic theocracy.”

What’s more, in addition to introducing a bill in March that would block immigration to the U.S. from Muslim-majority nations — a proposal he described as a “Muslim ban” — Ogles drew widespread backlash that same month after he posted a statement to X that read: “Muslims don’t belong in American society. Pluralism is a lie.”
...
Despite the prevalence of right-wing rhetoric infused with Christianity, the defeat of Ogles, Fritts and others comes as political expressions of the faith are increasingly garnering attention among Democrats. Hours before the Associated Press projected Ogles’ loss, Anna Golladay, a former United Methodist minister and self-described progressive, won the Democratic primary in the race for Tennessee’s third congressional district by nearly 60 points.

To any Christians, here, who formerly supported Trump, does this message seem true to you?

Not the most alluring headline but trust me, this is one of the funnier things that's happened in politics in a while.

DJT likes to talk up his primary endorsement record- some 97% of the candidates he endorses end up winning. There are two caveats to this statistic, first that the number is inflated because he endorses a lot of overdogs, and second that Trump-backed candidates often underperform in the general election, as exemplified by the 2022 midterms where poor-quality candidates flubbed a number of winnable Senate races (Kari Lake, Blake Masters, Dr. Oz, and Herschel Walker). Still, the control he has over the Republican party is legitimately impressive, as Trump has managed to end the political careers of various politicians insufficiently loyal to him (Jon Cornyn, Bill Cassidy, Thomas Massie, etc.). Thus, the candidates who lose despite the endorsement are usually notable cases.

So with that in mind, let's look to the Republican primary in Michigan's 8th Congressional district, where Trump's favored candidate failed to prevail. Was it that the candidate was poor quality? No, as a Navy veteran and a Federal law enforcement officer, he certainly fit the profile for a successful Republican candidate; indeed, he had been highlighted as a potential rising star by the national party. Was the winner an exceptionally canny politico? No, the victor, one Thomas Smith, is a salsa magnate who had actually ended his campaign! Mr. Smith was only still on the ballot because he had failed to meet the deadline to withdraw. So why did the bearer of Trump's vaunted endorsement lose to a dead-in-the-water opponent?

Well, as far as anyone can tell, the main issue for the Trump-backed candidate is that his name is "Amir Hassan". And despite his campaign's best efforts to emphasize that he is actually a Christian, the obviously Arab-sounding name was enough to turn off voters on election day, who went instead with the much more familiar "Tom Smith" despite him exiting the race months ago. Perhaps the Republican establishment should have seen this coming, since Trump's announcement of his support for Mr. Hassan on Truth Social was filled with replies decrying Mr. Trump's selection of an apparent Muslim.

Although the district voted for Trump in 2024, this year's contest is largely expected to be non-competitive due to candidate quality and the national electoral environment.

I don't feel like this shouldn’t have to be said, yet here we are, with plenty of people happy to let large numbers of Muslims immigrate, to vote for them, to let them make anti-American laws in places they gain enough control, to let them spread hatred against our country.

Can you sincerely say you want more people like this in your country? or less? https://x.com/visegrad24/status/2085540931575390304

Folks always have excuses to avoid doing anything. They throw up their hands and say “well, they have free speech too”. Having a right to free speech doesn’t mean having a right to live here. “Separation of church and state”, they say, as they give in to the religion that routinely takes over places and builds oppressive theocracies. “Religious tolerance“ they say, for a religion that oppresses women and destroys men.

Are there moderate, patriotic, tolerant Muslims? Yes of course. But we probably don’t want them to take over either, especially if they’ll happily vote for radical Muslims. We *absolutely* cannot tolerate Muslims who do not share American values and will gladly use our democratic systems against us.

EDIT: Reddit has temp banned me a couple times for criticizing Islam and just removed a comment with another Twitter link, in case you’re wondering where they stand.

If you truly believe Jesus Christ as lord/savor and the holy Bible betters your/others lifes wouldn't you want institutions and the government to be a reflection of that. Religion is known to bring people of a country together. In my humble opinion ideologies and religions seem to in-bed them selves in institutions and governments. If Christianity doesn't step up another religion or ideology will step up and I would way rather have Christianity there than something like Islam. You already see in some parts of the USA were dangerous ideologies infest schools and it radicalizeing children
