@TenaciousWolf That's where the Bible is often misunderstood. Jesus didn't tell His disciples to just roll over and get taken advantage of. What He was saying here is to use love to disarm and confuse those who are against them. Often generosity and love are a far more potent weapon to settling disputes than noisy demands and threats.
We live in a world that delights in "us vs. them." Whether it’s politics, culture, or even religion, we are told that complex issues are black and white and that hating our "enemies" is a survival tactic.
But what if our "enemies" are our neighbors? 🤔

@wherebreadisfound Sounds like a way to get taken advantage of generosity is fine, but takers don’t have limits. Set boundaries accordingly to the behavior you’re willingly to tolerate.
@barrybestt Nothing, the illusion of sex.
The number of EBT food stamp recipients has decreased by nearly 3.5 million people since stricter eligibility requirements were enacted last July.
Under the new rules, able-bodied adults aged 18 to 64 without children under 14 must work, volunteer or participate in approved job-training programs for at least 80 hours a month. The previous age limit for work requirements was 54, and allowed exemptions for adults with children under 18.
Immigrants who enter or remain in the country illegally have never been eligible for SNAP benefits, but the new rules end eligibility for certain non-U.S. citizens in the country with legal permission.
Last fiscal year, an average of 42.1 million people, including children, received monthly SNAP benefits at a total cost of $101.7 billion

@catmanmancat Gotcha, it all makes sense now. Didn’t know tailgating downhill could become a sport.
