Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Is she divorced yet? Don't Christians frown on adultery too?
Well, they say they do, but my experience in rural towns says they believe otherwise. Hell, growing up our married pastor was banging the married organist and then they ran away together.
Organist, indeed.
What's better than roses on your piano?
Tulips on the organ.
You from Appalachia? Because damn bud, I seen exactly that happen here haha.
Small, poor-ass, rural Texas here. Saw the same shit and a bunch of other shit.
That's about on-brand.
Speaking as someone going through a divorce, and it may be different in Colorado, but generally speaking as long as you are legally separated, by law it's not considered adultry. And being legally separated may be as simple as one person moving out of the family home.
Christians care more about the law of God. Well, they pretend to.
They care, until it happens to them.
In Qbert's own words:
So, she seemingly doesn't care about actual rule of law and what the State might say on matters like divorce. Of course she said this while in a church, and I seem to recall that women are not supposed to be doing that, according to the god of her chosen lifestyle. She is to remain silent in church.
