PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

Can you just imagine what the narrative would be if an African team behaved how Paraguay did today??? We would get called every single name under the sun. But with them it’s ‘passion’ ‘desire’. Get the hell out of here. Call it what it is.

If abortion is “playing God,” then so is: Chemo Pacemakers C-sections Viagra Insulin You’re not consistent. You’re just controlling.

Hatė when people at work ask you what books you are reading for professional development. I am reading books to counteract the effects of being professionally developed. I am reading books that bring me back to being human. Thank you

I love it when Black people say “here comes your friend” and when you look up it’s someone you hate

83% of British people are white 87% of MPs are white 92% of Police officers are white 94% of the House of Lords are white 85% of Britains richest families are white The notion that Britain experiences systemic anti-white racism is absurd It’s a far-right conspiracy

If you’re White living in England which is over 80% White and you genuinely think there is an anti-white campaign against the White population by institutions that are predominantly run by White people I genuinely do not know what to say… … Other than get off social media

Being 43 is wild. People your age are living completely different lives. Some are grandparents. Some are raising toddlers. Some are newly divorced. Some are newly engaged. Some haven’t slept in three years. Some are in St. Tropez posting Aperol spritzes from a yacht. Some look 25. Some look like they personally remember the invention of Tupperware. Nobody got the same assignment.

sinceramente, odio que hayamos normalizado la idea de que todas las opiniones son válidas. Creo que deberíamos volver a decirle a la gente que está mal informada y es ignorante.

Every time the Congolese put their foot down and say they don't want UN in their country, there's a sudden Ebola outbreak. But I guess correlation does not mean causation

I’m an immigrant who’s lived and worked in the UK for 16 years. I have a North American accent and I’m white. I’ve never once been told to ‘go back’ to my ‘shithole country’ or to ‘stop stealing jobs from British people’. You’re not concerned about immigration. You’re racist.

I recently heard something I can’t unhear: Over 80% of the feedback women receive at work is about their personality; not their work. I know it’s true.

Sometimes you gotta SIT in it baby. Sit in that pain. Sit in that lesson. Sit in that loss. Sit in that job. Sit in silence… just SIT with God.
