Keeping word count in the troll farm KPIs after chatgpt got on the scene probably not the best management move but that's coming from the same crew that gave you modern RussiaThe world's wisest man was faced with a case of two women, each accusing the other of lying. Who do you believe? King Solomon put it to the test.
I ask you to put it to the test.
See with your own eyes.
Here is a 3D panoramic photo of Donald Trump's first inauguration, taken at the instant when Trump is speaking to the vast crowd.
It has to be viewed on archive.org because CNN deleted the original - because they don't want to be caught lying.
To see the pano-photo, click "SEE THE GIGAPIXEL", then "close instructions". You use the mouse or pointer to rotate the 3D photo.

Gigapixel: The inauguration of Donald Trump
Explore a massive photo taken during Donald Trump's inauguration speech.web.archive.org
Rotate the photo so you can see all the way down the Washington Mall.
The reference point (red arrow below) for comparison is the crowd directly in front of the red-castle building, which is the old Smithsonian castle.

Notice above, carefully that the crowd, directly in front of the red Smithsonian castle is jam packed, and extends even further back towards the Washington monument vertical obelisk.
Note also, in the photo above, that the crowd at Trump's inauguration, at least, extends up to the white Press/Media building that is slightly further back from the red Smithsonian castle.
NOW, AFTER YOU HAVE SEEN THE ABOVE FACTS WITH YOUR EYES, see how the world's media lied against Trump. Right from the first day, the Media used every opportunity to slander Trump - saying he lied that his crowd extended all the way to the Washington obelisk.
Notice the photos below from the following CNN article - which also was in all the world's Media that day - showing the field empty during Trump's inauguration, as their basis for saying Trump lied that his crowd as bigger than Obama's.

Below the same article showed the area in front of the Smithsonian for Obama's crowd to be crammed.

Notice carefully the part in front of the red Smithsonian castle.
Once you realise how blatantly the world's Media lied, it became a daily occurrence for 9 years -- of lie after lie against Trump. Back in 2017, the AGE, SHM and the entire world's media used the photos directly above - the one with the empty field in front of the red castle - to PROVE that Trump lied.

#SpicerFacts: White House press secretary Sean Spicer's interpretation of the truth
White House press secretary Sean Spicer used his first press conference to argue over the truth, yell at the press and take no questions from them.www.theage.com.au
That was a watershed moment for me, when it suddenly dawned upon me how the world's media could co-ordinate together to lie.
i.e. for Trump's inauguration, the world's media used photos from early in the day to fabricate that Trump had a smaller crowd. And CNN deleted the panoramic photo which showed they lied - but fortunately, it is preserved on archive.org
Why is this significant for me? Because, since then, I find that most people refuse to see evidence. When they are told the above, they don't care. And why does this matter? Because the most important thing in the entire world for me is Jesus Christ, his Father, and the gospel of Salvation for mankind. And time after time, I see people reject it for the reason reason .... that they do not care about facts and evidence. Instead, they just trust those sources that they trust.
Believe me, I hope I don't come across as someone obsessed with U.S. politics and vaccines etc. No, the topic that fascinates me is how people think. It's the people on this forum -- they way they refuse to be open to evidence, is what keeps me on forums like this. I want to be a student of human nature, to learn how people duck and weave when presented with evidence. Because that same refusal to face information that's against them is exactly the same refusal that stops them from considering the message of Jesus Christ.
fuck me, you’ve had quite a few careers then from my recollection…I have many decades of professional experience in that field, so I know what I'm talking about.
Because the true God -- out of all the other spirits claiming to be the god - has given us evidence to find a way back to Him.
The true message of God is characterised by proof - facts and evidence.
In the Bible, there is no such thing as "blind faith".
If there were actually no evidence -- and no way to figure out who is truth and error in the jungle of everyone claiming theirs is the way -- then, when we each stand before God at the end of Time, every false teacher could validly say to God: "How was I to know, given that you never made a way to figure out the truth?
The basic message of Jesus Christ is undergirded by undeniable proof, provided one is willing to review and test it.
Spiritual truth
Truth based on legal-principles and legal-reasoning
Historical evidence
The history of ancient Israel
Archeological evidence
Sheer logic
And then, after ALL the above align with no contradiction, it would follow that such a God could, theoretically and technically - being a spirit being - could create the entire universe and world in 6 days. And then there are scientific reasoning and evidence to show that this is potentially and theoretically what did happen.
Whereas, Muz starts at the other end by automatically-assuming that: anyone who think the world is 6,000 years old is automatically a village-idiot.
THAT is saying: Show me proof that a supernatural God exists - but any proof that is supernatural, for the existence of a supernatural God, is automatically rejected.
In seeking to decide what is truth - whether as a scientist, trial lawyer, or as a person searching for God - one cannot tolerate a mind that has automatic-dismissals.
Classic example: Muz's automatic dismissal is that, anyone who says the world is around 6,000 year old is automatically an idiot. Doors shut.
Classic example: Jesus' message, that Jesus is God come in human form, lived among us as an example, suffered, died for our sins, and resurrected from the dead. For many people, that's an automatic-dismissal. Doors shut.
It's not a matter of blindly believing that. It comes down to fact and evidence.
- Among different religions, it's a jungle, each one claiming theirs is true.
- Even in the so-called Christian world, it's an even bigger jungle, each one claiming theirs is true.
The bottom line is, God wants you to come back to Him because He loves you. And so, God has provided a way that is sufficient to know what is good and what is evil -- so that we can turn from darkness -- to navigate the jungle to find God in the midst of that darkness.

I dont think you've ever answered an actual question.I was just answering a question put to me.
Certainly didn't answer why god saved trump but was happy with the poor fireman behind having his head exploded in front of his family.
Nice one 'god'.
I think he means it doesn't matter because Methodists arent true Christians???And?

Your core false-assumption is that God will override human free will to make 100% of things turn out good, even when evil people perpetrate evil.
God's core character is love (John 3:16, 1 John 5)
For a person to be capable of love, the person must have freedom to choose. e.g. you cannot force a woman to love you.
Therefore, because God wanted mankind to love him, God created humans with freedom of choice.
At the Fall, mankind used that free will to choose to swap allegiances by following the devil (snake).
To save mankind, God set in motion his plan of Salvation. This requires each person to turn from their personal evil, and come back to God. It requires each person to turn from their personal evil, and accept the offer Jesus Christ makes to them, him having died for each person.
For all of recorded history, it is people committing evil from start to finish. Most people do not turn from the personal evil, and that has impact on people around them.
Every person who commits evil, the self-justify that they are good people - that's you, me and everyone else.
Muz - you and me, when we do not turn from our personal evil (sin) - those sins impact people around us.
Thomas Crooks, the gunman who shot at President Donald Trump, he did not turn from his evil, and it impacted people (killed one, and injured others).
There is also the Christian doctrine of "predestination" - which is a massive subject in itself - Calvinism vs free will (Romans 8:29)
