A more thorough explanation:

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a document that outlines the religious beliefs of the Presbyterian Church. It was created in 1643 by a group of Protestant divines from Britain and the continent who met at Westminster. The document was later adopted by the General Assembly of the Kirk of Scotland and the Scottish Parliament, making it the basis of the Scottish Presbyterian Church.

The Westminster Confession of Faith is an important document for Presbyterians because it helps to define their beliefs and practices. It covers a wide range of topics, including God, the Bible, salvation, and the church. By following the teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith, Presbyterians believe that they are staying true to the teachings of the Bible.

For example, the Westminster Confession of Faith teaches that God is sovereign and in control of all things. This means that everything that happens in the world is part of God's plan, even if we don't always understand it. Presbyterians believe that this is an important part of their faith because it helps them to trust in God even when things are difficult.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
