On the subject of money and making this economy better, Hillary Clinton thinks that it’s a good idea to create new jobs with rising incomes as well as raising the minimum wage for jobs. Hillary believes that creating an economy with debt free colleges and a tax system that would reward workers is the best way to go. She would also like to raise the taxes on the rich. Hillary says that with the here plan she would be able to create 10 million more jobs. And then continues on to say that Donald Trump will lose 3.5 million jobs in this country. On the other hand, Donald Trump says that he Would create 25 million jobs in this country. He says that Hillary doesn’t even have a plan on how to create more jobs and keep everyone happy. One thing that Hillary was happy about, was the installation of solar panels. She believes that it was one of the best investments that this country has made. Trump thinks that solar panels were the worst idea for the country. As for taxes, Trump wants to cut the taxes on the rich.

With all the criminal activities that have been happening both the candidates believe that stability should be restored between all the communities and the police force. To add on to that subject, Hillary also believes that there should be a better training for the police. Donald Trump says that he wants to restore law and order in this society. He wants to get rid of gangs, that he says are made of all illegal immigrants. Also during this debate, Trump was asked multiple times about what he thought about the police convicting someone based on racial profiling. If he thought, it was true or false. And continually he avoided a direct yes or no answer. The fact that he avoided it says that he was basically agreeing with the police.

Moving on to the subject of all the cyber-attacks and how to make America safer, Hillary had said that the things we should focus on are that Russia is the one that has been behind all the cyber-attacks. She also believes that we should just wipe out ISIS. No matter the costs. No matter the means. Hillary also made the statement that Donald Trump doesn’t care if any other countries have nuclear weapons. That he thinks its ok for them to have them.

What Religion Would Jesus Belong To?

What Religion Would Jesus Belong To?

The way people view religions today are completely different from what it used to be. The change has affected a lot of the major religions, such as Muslims, Buddhists, and the Christian faith. 

Most of the Christians changed and some stayed with the old ways. “Our religions often stand for the very opposite of what their founders stood for,” notes Brian D. McLaren, a former preacher. “No wonder more and more of us who are Christians by birth, by choice, or both find ourselves shaking our heads and asking, ‘What happened to Christianity?’” Most of the ideologies of Christianity have been reformed to fit what the people want. Even those that say they are a Christian are mainly following a lie. Atheists, as well as those who feel spiritual but don't identify with a religion, are starting to be known as apart of a secular group called the "nones". 

As of right now only one-half of the American Christians would be able to name at least four Gospels. About 41 percent would be able to tell you about Job. With all this, it is best belied to worry less about doctrines and worry more about actions. One big question that McLaren asks is: “Could Christians migrate from defining their faith as a system of beliefs to expressing it as a loving way of life?” The answer? Yes, a migration like this could take place, because religion can and does migrate. It would lead everyone away religious bureaucracy and back towards the original ways of the religion. 

Transgender Restroom Laws

One Friday Raleigh, N.C. a federal judge ruled that students and employees must be allowed to use restrooms matching their gender identity at the University of North Carolina. Then a U.S. District Judge Thomas Schroeder had temporarily blocked three plaintiffs that were called HB2 until it goes to trial. Schroeder’s final decision would be made after the trial.

                HB2 was then passed in march and it said that transgender people had to use the restroom that has to correspond to whatever sex is on their birth certificates. This would also exclude any antidiscrimination protections. North Carolina’s Republican leaders said that the law was passed because it would protect privacy and safety. They also said that it would be able to keep any guys out of the woman’s restrooms and prevent any hard that could come out of it All the transgender residents claimed that the restroom safety is protected by laws already and that the HB2 law is harmful and discriminatory.

                Later on, Schroeder said that the three plaintiffs are likely to succeed in their arguments that HB2 violates Title IX. Then again Schroeder says that the transgender residents have not shown that they are likely to win the argument that the HB2 goes against their constitutional equal rights protection.
