He's an object of pity but even with his reprobate mind he makes more sense than the three old white people and he still is not very smart. Most of us Hoosiers born and bred got more dollars than cents and we're still hard up.

Yes, I'm quite familiar with John 17. I've taught it many times. It's Christ's great priestly prayer. He knows he is about to depart this earth and he is praying for himself and for those believers he is leaving behind. And - he prays for us as believers. It's a great intercessory prayer for believers. And you have taken it out of context to say that Jesus meant we should not pray for lost people.

This prayer does not mean that we are not to pray for the lost and for sinners entrenched in abomination. 1 Timothy 2 says that we should pray for all people..

And John 17:20 says (copying the upper case from #31):
20) NEITHER PRAY I FOR THESE ALONE, BUT FOR THEM ALSO WHICH SHALL BELIEVE ON ME through their word;

Jesus knows exactly who those people are; we do not. Thus, praying for unbelievers is His command and scripture never contradicts itself, even where our finite minds think otherwise.

We Hoosiers are all hicks. Mayor Pete is just a gay hick. He's not much account.

My Dad worked in South Bend. I am almost 80 so you can imagine how long ago that was. The first thing he had to do was get a gun permit and carry a gun to work there. South Bend has always been dangerous and it is even worse nowadays. It is deep rust belt and a horrible place to live because of the severe winters and very high crime rate.

A man cannot BE a wife. I didn't realize there was a game going on.
The whole thing is grievously sad.
A man cannot be a husband to a man. The entire arrangement is obviously perverted no matter the semantics, euphemisms, or equivalencies they imagine.

They obviously play all manner of games, but they are quite serious ones. We would do well not to fall for their traps by going along with them. It is sad, to be sure, but evil as well, and harms far more than just the two.

If your wondering as a Christian who to vote for, vote for the man who is most likely to support godly Christ centered living in society, not that the man may or may not be godly themself in your opinion, but the policies of the man, do they promote Christianity and godly living. As in how you get to live your life in a more god centered way with less distraction from evil things and evil ungodly policies being pushed and promoted in society, in your country.

For example
1 Timothy 2:1-2 New King James Version (NKJV)
1 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,
2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.

Democratic progressive and socialist policies are being forced into your life whether you like it or not and they are ungodly ones promoting ungodliness.
Just how are progressive and socialist policies being forced?

That is not perverted. From what I observed in college, that was normal Friday abd Sat night behavior.

Maybe. Seemed to be pretty pitiful "evidence" against him. I really dont care what he did in college. I dont care what Biden or Obama did in college either. All I care about politicians is how they legislate.
I only care if they are predictors. There again, teaching defense maneuvers to women and fire arms to women is something I suggest. I’m liking the Sig P365 these days.

If I buy the Sig I’m going for the P365XL, but this series has had some problems which caused me to step back. Renting one at the range first can save some grief.
