[TheRealThing]

While TRT likes to hold that EITHER one thing is true OR another, this carrying over of his religious convictions into political debates is, really, foolish. A great many people did better under Reagan's trickle down economic theories. However, a good number of working people did not. Both are equally true. In my view, the overall zeitgeist of the country under Reagan improved because the man himself, whether you liked his policies or not, had presence and communicated love and respect of country. I do not yet see in President Trump anything remotely Reaganesque. However, I think each President deserves more than 60 days to establish what their presence and style and leadership mean for the country.

LOL, your gift for irony is boundless, is it more foolish to recognize the sovereignty of God, or to deny same? David Stockman, (the aide turned critic and foe of the Reagan Administration and coiner of the term 'trickle-down-economics,' of which you are so enamored) came on TV right before the election and stated categorically that the DJ average would fall more than 4,000 points should Trump be elected and would not recover. I mean, that's just one of the ridiculous predictions he made but let's give credit where it's due, Stockman is 0-fer on all his predictions of doom. Or as your former political hero might say, he hasn't been even a smidgeon right on any of this stuff yet.

But as I have told you repeatedly, one cannot compartmentalize truth. I don't nor would I need to 'carry over' truth. Truth occupies it's station in natural order because as God has said;
Isaiah 55:11 (KJV)
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

If it's all the same to you or if it isn't, I will continue to build my impression of truth upon the foundation of His establishment. You are free to go your own way as it would seem you may be limited in recognizing the fact that spiritual truths are spiritually discerned; 1 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV)
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

On the lighter side, in reading your post and the awkward integration of the word zeitgeist, I see you have discovered your new word of the day. :Thumbs:
