If I may add another 0.02, when Joe Biden committed to selecting a woman as VP, he had an impressive slate of highly qualified, well-vetted candidates from which to draw. If Harris has to take over as president, she will not have come out of nowhere. She brings her own set of political chops. That's a point I hadn't considered - very true!

We can understand why you are not married @wally ! not sure i ever remember that whomever i wanted to be president and why ever came up to end any relationship i was in...anywho Rom_8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. From your posts on here, Wally, -you would not need anything as specific as your opinion that a woman shouldn't be President of the US for most women to not want be your wife, Wally.

Disclaimer: I am all for a female president. Question: If something happens to Joe Biden (medical) during his presidency, is it a victory for women if Kamala Harris becomes the first female president? The reason I ask: I don't see it as a victory or something the feminist movement should necessarily celebrate. I personally would prefer the first female president to be the presidential nominee from the party rather than the vp. Vice presidents are often chosen not only for merit, but for political purposes. I don't know that such a historic first for our country should involve a "by default" female president who wasn't elected as the president. It (in my mind) doesn't have the same impact as Obama being the first black president. He was the nominee, and defeated a very solid, qualified and respected opponent. Thoughts, particularly from females? (And I'm most interested in the opinion of dmmichgood on this issue, having come to respect her wisdom and experience) I was glad to see Biden choose Harris. Harris unquestionably has the capability to be a good president.
Look at all the women in other countries who have women as leaders & have done very well.
However, I have had a lot of misgivings as to whether Harris will become President, not because she isn't capable. Her credentials are as good and better than many others, -both men & women..
It has to do with the timing. Maybe if Biden could stay in for two terms and get the country back on track but Biden indicated once that he didn't really want to be office two terms.
The problem is the whole political climate of the country right now is so toxic due the Trump, I am afraid that climate can't change in just four years, may if we had eight years...
We will just have to wait & see, I guess.

Merkel in Germany has been the bright light in the EU for the past 15 years. I wish she was our president! I can see the scenario playing out where after 4 years, Harris is the nominee. You're right I think though - 4 years might not be enough to wash the Trump from between our teeth. My fear would be that if things aren't measurably better, it will reflect poorly on Harris if she runs. Plus, the Republicans are going to do everything in their power to be a torn in the Biden/Harris administration, just as the democrats were to Trump/Pence. On the other hand, if things are noticeably better and more civil and stable, Harris might win in a landslide by reminding voters how Trump (and by extention Republicans) left 2021.

So why do you need a gun if you have faith @wally ? did the jews have faith when they carried swords? No, of course not. That's why they didn't recognize who Jesus was.

There's an interesting word for your style of romance. There are web sites for indulging that romantic side too. I saw a movie once -- it took place in your part of the country too.

That's why they didn't recognize who Jesus was. well that is not biblical is it.. one has to only look at the OT to see that repeatedly in the OT the Lord sent them into battle with swords, bows, spears, shields, helmets, and armor(and not harsh language) and promised he would back them, that requires faith especially at times when they were out numbered. not recognizing Christ had more to do with a lack of understanding of what was going to actually happen not a lack of faith. they were looking for an earthly conquering messiah when he really was here to spiritually conquer and setup a heavenly kingdom. look at jews now they still BELIEVE and have FAITH that the Messiah/Christ is still yet to come and setup his kingdom on the earth for them. which again shows a lack of understanding of how it is suppose to go.

No, Wally. They are NOT expecting a "christ" in any way, shape, or form to this day. That isn't biblical -- they had a whole lot of messiahs over the ages and they were expecting another "messiah", sometimes they called him a "great" messiah. There is no mention of a "christ" in the Old Testament. The word "christ" appears only in Christian scriptures. The Jews who were not so opposed to Jesus as a messiah, according to the New Testament. Jesus apparently had a sizeable following among Jewish people -- until the Romans/gentiles believers decided Jesus was a christ and eventually got rid of all the Jews who didn't have faith in the "christ". Your version of Christ in the OT is nothing more than Christian cherry picking phrases from Jewish scriptures to facilitate their Greek theology. It's a bit like trying to use the story of Jack and the Bean Stock to prove the truth of the story of Bartholomew's hats.

Wally here comes the first rock. You are a Misogynist. Not a good look, very much opposed in Australia. Agree or disagree, at least Wally has a consistent Biblical position that he doesn't deviate from. One of the most ridiculous things I've seen is where Christians claim that they are OK with female leadership over their business and country, but they insist that women cannot teach in churches or be pastors. Apparently women can be trusted to handle nuclear weapons but some antics regarding an imaginary snake thousands of years ago makes them unfit to interpret the Bible (Oh, and I've most frequently heard this out of the Australian ex-2x2s btw)

Yes, it is your attitude. Granted, it is your theology that dictates your attitude. It's not your theology that offends people, but the attitude that somehow your seeming expectation that that the country should fall in line with your "theology". God's way wins in the end, not me... Amen, why didn't God create Jesus a woman Redeemer/Savior? to die for sin of humanity, eh. Our God is a God of order. There is an Order to everything God does. I Cor. Paul wrote God is before Christ, Adam before Eve and so on...

Good Christian try, though. wrong again...i doubt your definition of "credible scholar" is all that credible. i'm gonna go with those who wrote the NT in GREEK(except for matthew i believe) who would have understood what word to use in GREEK to represent Mashiach rather than any modern "credible scholar"...good try though

Is there any hope that a Time Machine mechanic could get it running again before you die, so you can join us in the here and now?

(And I'm most interested in the opinion of dmmichgood on this issue, having come to respect her wisdom and experience) NZ had a similar experience that you are thinking of a few years ago. Maybe Australis did too but I will wait for an Aussy to confirm that. In NZ there are two major parties and a few minors. In 1997 National was the govt. with Jim Bolger as Prime Minister. Jim was a gentleman and Jim was very much middle of the road. I agree with that way of steering a political course. However Shipley, also a National Party member of parliament for ten years was not happy with the govt. and the Bolger leadership. At a NP caucus meeting where NP members of parliament were asked who to support they voted for Shipley. She lost the next election in 2001, defeated by a female led Labour Party. Although Shipley was NZ's first female prime minister she was only elected to that position by the NP caucus. NZ's next PM was Helen Clark who was leader of the Labour Party and the people of NZ voted for her to be PM. I believe there is a subtle difference.

I told you folks for 20 years Paul the apostle SAVED and PRESERVED Christ' church and teachings from going down the drain with false brethren brought damnable/pagans and heresy teachings into the churches the RCC by the end of the 2nd Century. The Vaudois were Paul's converts in Rome 67 A.D. carry on the TRUE teachings of Christ to our days! that was WHY the resurrected Jesus appointed him in person on the way to Damascus in Acts 9:11-16 to told Ananais this...
And the Lord/Jesus said to him, “Get up and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying, 12 and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him, so that he might regain his sight.” 13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many people about this man, how much harm he did to Your saints in Jerusalem; 14 and here he has authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call on Your name.” 15 But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of Mine, to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel; 16 for I will show him how much he must suffer in behalf of My name.” professing.proboards.com/thread/25658/nathan-time-line-irvine-founder
