He that striketh his bondman or bondwoman with a rod, and they die under his hands, shall be guilty of the crime.
But if the party remain alive a day or two, he shall not be subject to the punishment, because it is his money.—Exodus 21:20–21
Non-Virgin before marriage:
They shall cast her out of the doors of her father’s house, and the men of the city shall stone her to death, and she shall die: because she hath done a wicked thing in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s houself.
—Deuteronomy 22:20–21
In cases of Rape:
Thou shalt bring them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned: the damsel, because she cried not out, being in the city: the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife.
—Deuteronomy 22:23–24
Adultery:
If any man commit adultery with the wife of another, and defile his neighbour’s wife, let them be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.—Leviticus 20:10
A merciful God? Not always:
Now therefore go, and smite Amalec, and utterly destroy all that he hath: spare him not, nor covet any thing that is his: but slay both man and woman, child and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.—1 Samuel 15:2–3
Homosexuality

Short Thread - My Closing Statement on the 2020 Election
2 Minute Read
Let's compare what we've been living through these past 4 years to the Preamble to the Constitution.
The overall objective:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union . . .
The goals of the document:
. . . establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity . . .
The action taken:
. . . do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
So how are we doing?
Our Union is far from perfect. In fact, it is the most divided it has been since April 12, 1861.
Establish Justice? Trump/Barr have undermined Justice.
To restart our economy, without killing 1000's more Americans, we will need a logical plan.
1. Test/Categorize Americans into 3 distinct categories:
A) Home/Isolated/High Risk/Infected
B) Workers/At Risk
C) Workers/Immune/Antibodies Present (Donors)
It's pretty easy to understand how Groups A & C will function moving forward. We're seeing those groups emerge now & function successfully, so we will focus on group B here.
2. Protect Group B, (Workers/At Risk):
A) Develop free disposable self-tests & require daily testing.
B) Develop an app to monitor testing & contact tracing that includes an "exposure alert system."
C) Develop detailed PPE & workplace protective equipment, and put the onus for providing them on employers. (PPE purchased by Gov., in bulk, sold at cost to employers).
Single best thing you can do to improve your Twitter experence.
1. Identify the top 10 to 20 accounts you like to comment on or Retweet most.
2. Go to Settings/Privacy, Notifications, Push Notifications, & TURN ON Push Notifications.
Wait there's more👇
3. Search/select those accounts you identified on step #1 and turn on that account's notifications (the little bell and + sign usually). Select "All Tweets." Repeat for all the accounts you've want notifications from.
Of course, my account should be on your list! 😃👇
4. Now, go back to Settings and Privacy and TURN OFF push notifications.
Ok - You will not get annoying alerts every time someone on your list tweets, (you probably got some while completing this process), but you will get a handy list of their tweets.
I've been following & resisting this mess since Trump announced in 2015. Here's my theory:
1. Trump is a Russian asset. 2. GOP emails were stolen, by Russia, when the DNC was hacked. 3. The emails details Russian coordination & $ flow to the DT/GOP via the NRA & straw donors.
4. It's been made clear to the GOP members that the repercussions of exposing the Trump/Russia alliance would include major political, legal, and even personal/family welfare concerns. 5. We are in the midst of a clandestine war with Russia. An attack decades in the making.
The racism, lies, divisive rhetoric, the gradual but persistent adjustments & acceptance of increasingly outrageous behavior and events, (including blatant and transparent corruption) . . . are all tools used by Hiltler's Germany & perfected by Putin & the USSR's KGB.
