# This Weeks Discussion Theme: [Consoom Trumpler] (https://arete.network/polls/39f7e396-11a0-4c41-9cf4-deaf34f80341/)
In this weekly we consoooooooooom Trumpler! Unless you been living in a log cabin off grid for the last two weeks you likely know Trump has been arrested. So, what did he do? They must have finally gotten him for his trips to Epstein Island? Oops, wrong guy. Wait oh it must have been for his son’s shady business deals with Ukraine and China. Dang, wrong guy again. Oh, wait, it has something to do with that corn star Hurricane Denise? Wasn’t all this nonsense settled like years ago? Who knows... Just need to crack open a few more Dylan Mulvaney Bud Lights and turn on CNN. Is there any sports ball on?
 
 
 
 
 
Discussion ideas:
 
 
 
* What is your opinion on Trumps arrest?
* Is it really campaign finance fraud or just weaponized lawfare?
* Do you think Trumps arrest have harmed his prospects for 2024 or helped?

* [Master List](https://communities.win/c/ConsumeProduct/wiki/ConPro-Weekly/)

Content mirroring between [scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct](https://scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct) and [arete.network/b/ConsumeProduct](https://arete.network/b/ConsumeProduct) is now ready for an experimental test run. There are bound to be some issues starting out and changes may be reverted if anything goes catastrophically wrong.
   
I have tried my best to minimize the number of requests to the Scored API as much as possible, which means that feed updates won't happen in real time, but they should still be frequent enough to display fresh content (currently a 15 minute interval). Old posts will be updated when accessed directly or when listed on feeds.
   
I've made sure to respect content deletion and not retain deleted content, so as long as everything works as intended, content deleted by users on scored.co should become unavailable as soon as someone attempts to view it, if not prior to that through feed updates detecting discrepancies.
   
Any posts or comments you make on Arete Network's Consume Product board will be automatically crossposted to Scored by a bot account.
   
Mirrored content is by default hidden from Arete's front page, but you may choose to enable it in [your settings](https://arete.network/settings/), or turn it off entirely if you so desire.

Despite the warnings about false prophets, the Bible is pretty clear that we must trust revelation in our own lives, especially the revelation that "good" prophets receive.

How do we tell good prophets from bad prophets? Jesus told us "by their fruits". Good prophets actually teach us about Jesus Christ, his eternal nature as God, and his mission to save us from our sins, and call us to repent and embrace God in every aspect of our lives.

You can apply this test to virtually every preacher or pastor or pope. Listen to what they say. If they call you to repent of your sins, embrace Christ and put your hope in him, then that is good. If he is calling us away from Christ, to entrench ourselves in our sins, or to put our faith in man rather than God, well, we know who teaches that message.

In your own life, fellow believer in Christ, I am positive that you had a spiritual encounter with the divine. That's why you believe. Maybe the Bible was part of this experience. Maybe you felt it in a sermon or vicariously through someone you trust. Regardless, these experiences are worth more than all the wealth in the world. Treasure them. Write them down. Share them, freely, with your friends and family. Talk about them with your kids, and encourage your kids to get the same kind of experiences. Stop hiding your light under a bushel!

**THIS**, not all of the philosophy and logic and dead language learning to decode the Bible, will be much more effective at bringing people to Christ, the LIVING Christ, than anything else.

Search your heart, you know it is true.

ON THAT NOTE, please be aware that we Latter-day Saints have NO QUARREL with any one of you. I personally have assurance that God is working through your churches to bring people back home to him. While the Pope or some pastor or even an entire congregation or sect may stray from the gospel path laid out by the apostles and prophets, God is good enough that he can still perform his work regardless.

I STRONGLY URGE EVERYONE to become MORE active in your own church. Be more devout and more sincere and more apologetic and more evangelistic. DO NOT FEAR the world! Do not fear disagreement!

Just don't be stupid about it. Don't say stupid things that are factually false and pretend it is true. You need to actually learn something to avoid this easily avoided error -- start by actually reading the Bible please!

If we are to restore the white race, we must first replenish our spirit, the same spirit that led our ancestors to create out of a wilderness a civilization, thousands of times over for thousands of years. With new hope and faith, we will have all the strength we need to overcome today's challenges!

What if we set up a Go Fund Me to sponsor. Black Hebrews to visit the motherland (Israel) One way airfare and a few thousand dollars when they land in Israel. Roughly 7k per Black. Imagine it, a hundred thousand blacks in Israel at once, with no return tickets and a strong belief it is their homeland Oh the chaos

  

Was in Canada with my uncle. He told me the city has had several overpasses damaged by trucks smashing into them and wonders why this is happening. I tell him the obvious answer - indian truck drivers.

All the sudden he looks at me and in the deepest, most demonic voice says "you better shut the fuck up if you know what's good for ya". Then reverts back to a completely normal tone and changes the subject entirely.
