It is in the AM before the sun has shed rays upon the ground--and already there is a hellthread breaking, just barely nascent, not having broken much of the TL yet, barely even identifiable in its early moments. -

Trump will earn my respect (internet laughter) if he puts on a wig right now (Jan 6) and publicly comes out as a woman, sliding in as our first female president. -

Yeah, same here.
I can already see the script conversation with family and acquaintances who endlessly spoke of "the pendulum" this year. "You see, it's like a pendulum. When the policies go too far left, the libtards learn their lesson and the votes swing right, hurhurhur."
Such an argument cedes that 2020 was a legitimate election--with "the pendulum" having been on the left then, rather than the election having been stolen despite voter turn-out for the right. And now that the orange teddy bear is back in the corner where they like it, the pendulum theorists will go back to sleep. -

Let's say you are telling me about the 2020 election and the voters involved, and you say that all of the states had their numbers manipulated. You would be truthful to say that of all of the states*
*of the US, which is the scope of your subject.
Other states--the federal states within Argentina, Germany, Russia, whatever--are not the subject of what you've said and so are not referenced within the scope. Yet you've used the word 'all', and you've done so truthfully, soundly. It would be me changing your scope if I demanded every use of 'all' be global, never allowing you to remain in the context you begin a story with.
If I'm talking about a people (the descendants of Adam, as the recounting of Noah begins) and I say "all of the land" (their land), that is a true statement. "The mountains were covered." The statement still remains true. "All of the flesh and plant life of the land died." Still remains true.
Other land--the land where others live--is not in the scope.
The word is not 'Earth' in scripture; it is 'earth'--'land', 'ground'--and specifically the land of the people in the scope, the people discussed by the same text.
The point of the Flood was to chastise His children, to start over, to cut off the branches that were touching the tree of knowledge of good and evil. (Where there is no law, there is no sin accounted. The law given by God to Adam and his descendants was to be fruitful and multiply and to not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil--that is, to not have relations with angels. It is for sin--a transgression of God's commandments--that death is resultant and even dealt immediately as punishment. Once more, sin is not accounted where no law has been given. At this point, God has commanded only to be fruitful and multiply and to not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The Flood story begins with that commandment being once again transgressed--it not being an offhanded interjection that the descendants of Adam are mixing with angels. The explanation for why Noah was chosen given by scripture is that he was not only righteous but perfect in his generations (i.e. not an offspring of this unlawful combining). Importantly, he was priest of the descendants of Adam, being the eighth to be so, the eighth priest, after the order of Melchizedek (oldest living father by the line of eldest sons living, passing from father to son, upon the death of the father).
Transgression of this same commandment is the moment when Sodom and Gomorrah, of whom "their iniquity was not yet full" before, suddenly have their iniquity full. It is when they try to have sexual relations with angels, pressing on the door to rape them, that death is dealt--punishment for the transgression of the same commandment.

It is a bad argument for someone to claim they lean on "the Traditional Christian understanding." Place yourself on a dart and throw it at the timeline during the OT, and imagine leaning on "the Traditional Israelite understanding" during anytime time during the OT, let alone during the exceptional time of the NT.
Traditionally, we are awful at tradition.
Our faithfulness / skill is no different now.
----
I know the following wasn't shared as a "I will die on this hill" view and more offered as a view that's heard, but it is still worth addressing:
Were Noah's sons to have married women of different races, we would run into two major problems to use that as an explanation.
>There are more races than sons
>The families of those sons became nations that scripture names in Genesis 10. These are real nations, and these real nations had a real, historical ethnicity. -

Putting on my akshually hat, fellas.
Few will read; most will laugh. So it is.

This will be long (a two-parter) because I'm addressing the points of the no-man’s-land thread above.
If nothing else, I hope you're entertained.
If you do read through it, you'll see a cool connection regarding the Tower of Babel in scripture I don’t see or hear mentioned often (hardly ever).
-------
Matthew 28:19-20 (the Great Commission to go out and give the gospel to all of the nations) says "to all of *the* nations." Some English translations keep the definite article; some drop it, saying "all nations."
"The" nations is a distinction made in both the NT and OT.
After the Flood, Noah and his sons (and their sons and so on) fill out into nations. Those are *the nations.*
Genesis 10:32
>These are the families of the sons of Noah, by their births, in their nations, and by these have **the nations** been parted in the earth after the deluge.
Many Christians stumble to explain--and this is a criticism many atheists throw under uncertain, ungrounded Christian heels--why it is that God gives two different instructions to the Israelites conquering Canaan, in regard to how they should handle nations they encounter. Of some nations, he tells the Israelites that their women and herds are permitted to be incorporated. Of other nations, he says that none shall live--that all (even their herds) are to be slain.
The distinguishing line is whether a nation is of the Genesis 10 list of "the nations." It's truly that easy.
Something important to note of the Genesis 10 list of nations: The nations listed are curiously comprising only a single race. They are real nations listed--comprising and descending from a real ethnicity.
Evangelicals and dispensationalists must explain how other races came to be, after the Flood, if the Flood was global.
Or we can stand firm, apart from evangelical and dispensationalist uncertain footing, and we can know that the Flood did not kill all nations (i.e. was not global) and was intended only for the descendants of Adam and where they dwelled, as Genesis 6 states. This would align with the very real flood that did occur around 3100 BC in the area where Whites were, as scripture would have the timeline.
>This is just the OT. What about the NT?
Let me continue with one more OT relevant thread:
Abraham was promised that his seed would become many nations.
When does this happen in the OT? (Hint: It does happen in the OT, not in the NT.) His seed by Ishmael becomes a few nations, sure, and his seed by Isaac (along which the Abrahamic covenant follows) becomes the Israelites, and these become two nations: Ephraim and Judah, also called the Northern and Southern kingdoms.
The Northern and Southern kingdoms fall, and the Israelites are scattered among *the nations* by the time of Nehemiah and Ezra, as God had said he would do with the seed of Israel (many times, Hosea, Amos, Micah, Jeremiah... ). God, however, promised He would bring a remnant of the seed back to the land promised to them. (That's exactly what happens in Nehemiah and Ezra.)
Again and again, throughout the OT, God proclaims to the Israelites He will resolve them into one nation again and establish a covenant with them they cannot break, despite being an unfaithful Bride.
>NT time
Joseph and Mary take Jesus to the second temple after His circumcision. An elderly man, an Israelite named Simeon, is there "looking for the consolation of Israel." He has been told that he will not die before he has seen the Christ. Upon seeing Jesus, he hugs Him, proclaiming Him to be "a light for the revelation of *the nations* and the glory of Your people Israel."
The nations promised to Abraham (*the nations*, where the seed of Israel have been scattered through the last hundreds of years / pages of scripture, *the nations* of which God has repeatedly in the OT said that the Israelites will inherit, where they, now scattered, have been having babies with *the nations*, thus *the nations* fill into Israelites) will be revealed and reconciled by Christ. Paul, in particular, a man raised in education, will be His apostle to *the nations*. Paul will write to them regarding their being the Israelites, to whom belong the covenants. *The nations* where the seed of Israel were scattered receive the good news of God's new covenant (as was promised to the Israelites). Israel is--the Israelites are--one again, no longer shamed / having branches fall off by the law. Even those Israelites that dispersed before the law was given at Sinai to the Israelites (i.e. wild olive trees as opposed to the cultivated olive tree) are grafted in.
This needs a Part 2 to show where in the NT these Genesis 10 nations, *the nations*, are listed again as being "all of the nations of those under heaven." -

We correctly compare this empire's deterioration to those of other empires, but there is a distinct difference that will have us see--is having us see--incredible deviations from the pattern. Already, the usual thresholds have been crossed.
No citizen of any empire before had a letter in their pocket that changes the "Love, Mom" to being "Love, [anyone]"--their celebrity hero, their best friend, their crush, an "expert."
The common citizen receives a unifying message from 10,000+ "fellow experiencers" (rather than their irl community). These "fellow experiencers"--comprised of manufactured consent personless profiles and the strangers and friends and family members that agree with them--unite by a need to feel informed, progressive, involved, etc., such that they are all concordant that nothing is falling apart but instead is being built up--and that, if something is ever wrong, it is the fault of the only group that ever sustained the empire. -

I saw the clip of that interview here yesterday (and now I'm sorry that I didn't save it), and the bit he said just before what's in the screenshot above made what's in the screenshot sound like "WE'LL WRITE LETTERS" threats.
Vance had stated that Trump got stymied in his first term by people Trump couldn't fire, so Vance's advise to Trump in a second term would be to *fire them* (???) and then [stuff in sceenshot: get taken to court, appeal to people].
The problem is that I don't see how he plans to enforce firing those he previously couldn't fire--unless he *enforces* it (hands and locks and guns to keep people out of offices). I just don't see that happening. -

It has only been a handful of days, so I won't assume in which direction Trump's brush with mortality has leaned him--but I do wish it were more considered that the brush could lean him toward either of two directions: "The country needs to calm, come together. I must work to bring Americans--all Americans--peace." behavior rather than an acceptance toward "These people are not here to negotiate, and I shouldn't want to negotiate with them."
He does not plan the RNC, but his reactions to the RNC events have me thinking he's leaning toward the first, "peaceful" option, imagining it's an option at all.
Imo, he still imagines he'll use the system to correct the system. -

'Israelite' is not a synonym for 'jew'--just as an Anglo is not by necessity English by citizenship nor does someone being English by citizenship an Anglo make. Nor does a non-Anglo having offspring with an Anglo an Anglo make. And if England fell--with the Anglos having bamfed out largely beforehand, through centuries of deterioration, until England contained mainly the non-Anglo "English" as the "English" remaining and then scattered as the "English" diaspora upon the final collapse--it would be ignorant to imagine references to the Anglo are any reference to that day's "English".
Imagine thinking stories of 1800s Detroit are about the niggers living there today, calling themselves by that name. "Ey, yo mayne, im str8 Detroit nahmsayin." -
