| Three more Democratic congressmen called for President Joe Biden to withdraw from the race following his Thursday night press conference, as the president is still struggling to tamp down concerns in his own party about his cognitive state. However, a lingering question for many Democrats is: who could possibly replace Biden as the nominee (especially after they refused to seriously consider this question during presidential primary season)? |

Theft can have catastrophic repercussions. Adultery tears apart marriages and families. So, really, what's a little pride when compared to these things, right? Except, biblically speaking, God hates pride. And as some theologians have pointed out, "There is no sin that is more frequently, more emphatically, and more eloquently condemned in Scripture." |
