    Their repeated scandals involving UN officials and peacekeeping forces engaged in kidnapping and sex trafficking victims of war makes them at least as evil as the Vatican.

    As far as being actual Luciferians- lets call it a hunch. If I could prove it, I would be saying it a lot more often ;)

    Not necessarily

    Read the stories of child brides and the felt every bit as trapped as a kidnap victim. Possibly somewhat worse as those who should be protecting them are complicit in keeping them in virtual captivity

    Some are

    There are cultures where to let another starve is shameful and everyday we hear the attitude here of “let them look after themselves”

    Once upon a time lying was considered egregious but since 2016.......

    Unfortunately it is not a new thing and happens all too often. Just as troubling I find are the sheer number of cases of girls in the western world tricked into "visiting relatives" in the middle east, but end up being forced into marriage. Pakistan is the greatest offender by far:

    A hearing on American women and children being abducted by middle eastern countries (specifically Saudi Arabia) was brought up a House committee back in 2002 (see the notes here). But I don't think anything really came of it.

    The plight of women in Muslim majority nations is a real tragedy with no clear end in sight. Although the recent change in Saudi Arabia to allow women to travel without a male guardian is a positive step. Hopefully there will be others that follow.

    Well it matters not that they are in the Western world if they still adopt their cultural heritage.

    What's promising though is the feminist uprising that has been seen in Pakistan and now Iraq just a day or so ago - fighting for GENUINE feminist causes, unlike the vast majority of what the Western feminists fight for, while ignoring the issues that women face in the middle east. @Bowerbird, perhaps you heard about this uprising?

    Lying is no longer egregious because Trump supporters think that it's okay?

    Of course, the only difference that can ever be drawn is how much the populace buys into it.

    Name another religion which today permits kidnapping. I'll be stunned if I hear from you again.

    It reminds me of religions from the Middle East, like Islam, Judaism, and Christianity that sometimes cause trouble.

    Yeah, Paganism is much better than all Abrahamic stuff. :)

    Yes, it is just ONE of the shift in morals and mores that have occurred since Trump made bad behaviour a norm

    https://interfaithallianceco.org/bl...akdown-of-donald-trump-and-the-rest-of-us-too

    Ask his supporters about “Trump University” and the people it harmed and it is brushed aside with “well they were suckers” or similar dismissive ness. Ask about his open bullying, witness intimidation’s, vindictiveness etc etc etc

    It is all excused and one has
    To wonder if they are excising this odious behaviour in Trump then what about their own behaviour?

    Why is it a "norm" if the majority of the country is against it?

    So why focus on bashing the USA when it's also clearly happening in Australia?

    Pagans respect nature and love the here and now.

    Christians and Muslims destroy our world and go for a fictitious "paradise", because God told them so. Their god hates mankind. :(
