On the right side of tonight's card, we have
the second of two Republican town halls
, held in Columbia, South Carolina.
Wait...second?
Yup, second. The first was last night, with
Rubio, Cruz, and Carson in Greenville. Meanwhile, Trump had his
own little event with the Morning Joe crew.
Major takeaway? Add singing to the List Of Things Ted Cruz Is No Longer Allowed To Do.
So, who's up tonight?
The Donald, ¿Jeb?, and Kasich.
That doesn't sound like a fair match up.
No, it really doesn't.
So, who's in charge?
CNN is running this, with Anderson Cooper as host. CNN, CNN International and CNN en Español will air it live, and be streamed live online on CNNGo.
What time?
7 PM Eastern.
This is a
Republican Party Town Hall ONLY thread. Any of them is fair game, but this is not the Republican Primary thread.

I wasn't joking.
Well, I'm always for some more Dubya beating.
Looking at the lineup, it sort of is.
10$ says Trump lunges at Jeb Bush and rips his jugular out with his bare teeth a fork and knife because that's how he eats pizza.
That would complete the "Socialist" triforce, with the recent PMs elected in Canada And England, if Ted Cruz is the GOP nominee, to scare us enough to go, "Fuck that, here Bernie, the Keys, has them!"
And we would then Thank Canada, for saving us from ourselves.
Tom Clancy, get rekt!
May as well see what happens when we watch them ask Trump about the pope a billion times in a row.
Isn't Cameron still the UK PM? He's a conservative...
...does Trump know that.
What is happening.
Protestants aren't huge fans of the pope
You sir are correct.
*smacks head*
In my dumb, typical yankee assumptions, I thought England had voted in a Socialist Candidate, during the 2015 elections.
Ok, well, Canada will still get credit, If Cruz is the GOP candidate, that scares some Americans to vote "other".
CNN is like waiting an hour for lukewarm porridge that is mostly just dirty water

America is becoming great again, that's what's happening.
Which is so sad because that exchange with him and Anderson and his wife was very human and pretty cute.
"You're not angry enough"
I used it - it's great.
The disabled man in the wheelchair, who was a republican, said to Kasich it saved his life!
Random dude "I seen people say its terrible."
Trump "It is!"
Fuck you both so hard.
Kind of strikes me as odd (but human) - from my knowledge of history it should be more dislike of the office, but it's probably easy to conflate the office and the person holding it. Protestants as a whole got their start because Luther was fed up with corruption in organized religion... but that shouldn't extend to automatically disliking the person holding an office because you don't like that the office exists.

It does when you think that person has a good chance of being the antichrist.
Nah, anti-catholicism has always been a big thing with the protestant and such types.
These days it's more amusing then anything cause it's like "OMG, someone hates me for my religion? As a white christian in the 1st world this is so weird and new. It's like, novel!"
bush is god awful. I was not aware how uncomfortable he comes across while speaking at length.
trump is similarly awful but everyone knows that. he just talks nonsense for so long before maybe, if he decides, actually making some kind of a point. rarely having anything to do with the subject at hand.
2 nights of town halls and my strongest feeling is I cannot wait to see cruz or trump opposite hillary. if it's rubio I'm a little more frightened, those two just leave themselves so wide open to someone willing to lay in a punch.
Anyone who takes THAT part of the bible as a serious prophecy... ugh. (Spoiler: It refers to Nero)

Because at some level the office holder probably approves the existence of the office (assuming it is not one of those necessary evils type of deals).
Sure, the current Pope seems like an ok guy (though he is likely to hold quite a number of opinions i would find horrible, or at most be unwilling to speak against those views).
But he is still the Pope, still the head of Catholic Church, and at some level that brings some level of complicity (even if in "accessory after the fact" type way) with quite lot of bad shit (and also good shit, let's not forget that), and he did accept the job willingly (or so i assume).
Luther himself made a big deal about the papacy fitting the characteristics of the antichrist. Only the wisconsin synod still makes a deal about adhering to that, though the Missouri synod dabbles in it.
They used to have actual battles with the Knights of Columbus.
This is a thing that happened.
They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.
We've been hating on Catholics for a while.
"We believe in the people and their 'wisdom' as if there was some special secret entrance to knowledge that barred to anyone who had ever learned anything." - Friedrich Nietzsche
Most genuine theologians believe all the end times stuff that's in the bible was ment to stir up the people at the time it was written. Not some nebulous point centuries into the future.
But when did the study of history ever help anybody?
Do not engage the Watermelons.
On one hand, that was probably horrible in so many levels.
But on the other hand, it sounds like something straight out of anime, and that's awesome (my image of the situation probably has zero relation to reality of it).
Yep, the 616 manuscripts are good evidence for that view as well.
History also has raised question of the authorship of a few of the Epistles as well if I remember correctly. Not sure that one came up in class though (Revelation not being prophecy did).
This thread is much more enjoyable than I expected. Being so off topic helps.
