I think Trump is only good for the campaign, he would probably be a disaster

Honest question my friend. Do you see any way under the sun that he could possibly be as big of a disaster as what we have in office now? Heck, at least Trump is an American.

Things have calmed down and I certainly don't wish to stir them up.  If you're curious about conservative principles, or viewpoints on many of today's world issues, here are a series of five minute videos that are aimed at framing some of the key issues from a conservative's perspective.  The site was developed to provide the 'other side's' viewpoint, under the premise that this viewpoint is now largely under represented in public schools and universities.  You can disagree or agree, that is not the point.  It just represents an alternative viewpoint to the mainstream information that is out there.

PragerU = Dennis Prager.

That tells me all I really need to know.

So when he claimed earlier this year that the drought in California was caused by the worship of a false god (in this case he claims the "false god" is Nature) he was being factually correct???

His opposition to same sex marriages, which he has said is one of the greatest threats to America, is funny coming from a man that preaches morality and family values seeing that he is on his third marriage.

I get it, you're a fan of the man.

I'm not. He's just another name on the list of neocon chickenhawks.

To each his own.

Not exactly primary sources you are providing, here.  He is often taken out of context, and flat out misquoted. I will stand by the fact that he is one of the most factually correct individuals you will find.  Of course he has opinions.  Having an opinion does not mean you are absent of facts.  Yes, to each his own.  I notice that you are not opposed to name calling, though.  Interesting.

Prager appeared on Glenn Beck's radio show earlier this year to promote his  book, "The Ten Commandments: Still the Best Moral Code,". It was during that interview that he claimed Southern California's lack of water was due to the state violating the commandment against worshiping false gods. 

He was claiming that California is worshiping the false god Nature because so much water is taken from humans and used to save some small fish. Apparently the historic lack of rainfall (aka drought) is of no relevance at all to California's water woes. You can track down the recording of that show if you want to hear it for yourself.

He's certainly entitled to his opinions and his claim that same sex marriages are a grave threat to America is just that, an opinion.  I guess the factual statement is that he did in fact make that claim on tv some years ago. Again, you can track down the video of that.

Calling Prager a neocon and chickenhawk is not "name calling". It is labeling. He is, in fact, a neoconservative. He is, in fact, a chickenhawk.

If I wanted to engage in "name calling" I would have called him a "stupid old boogerhead". But I would never do that because that's not how I roll.

I'm happy as hell people are fainting with emotion because of their religion(s).  If it makes you feel good, that's great.

That said, if we want to be an inclusive nation and not follow in the footsteps of divisiveness and (just read the news) countries with extremists fighting or in control, lets just leave the mysticism out of it and govern, logically, to make things work.  Right?

The pulpit is used for control, for power.  It should be for the greater good (insert Jesus quote about helping people here).

Really, just wanted to quote a big block of text to make people feel the pain of reading people quoting big blocks of text (and pictures) where it's obvious you're responding to a post right above.  Peeplz, keep this in mind.  We are paying for bandwidth.

(this is sorta the like the rage we feel when solicitors call our cell phones).

Statement of this post.  There is none.

But see the above post.

And you may understand, but probably not, because people don't read things that aren't bullet points.  (in my professional experience).
