What a bunch of insecure bitches must be the lawmakers in that city.

Not all Christian organizations would have an issue. However the conservative ones, which are unfortunately the majority, would.

Do you see that collapse coming now that the Taliban have total control? Because that was the situation before the US invaded. We should have smashed Al Qaeda and then left, telling them that from now on, we'll leave you alone as long as you leave us alone.
