A strange study, since it seems to omit the fact that YouTube censors content, esp. conservative content. So right at the start, the study is flawed.
If it were talking about the Internet in general, then it would have some validity to start with.
In terms of polarization, it seems that people have forgotten how polarized the country became with Obama. Everything was about black vs white. Yet statistics show most blacks were being killed by other blacks, and even now, a mayor said that the blacks being killed were not innocent victims (news item posted here at SA).
Also, the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) shows that most inter-racial crime is done by blacks on whites. Even in Seattle, where blacks make up less than ten percent of the population, most of the murders are being done by blacks. |

A headline like this strikes fear in the heart of many, but delight for Democrats who think that the churches full of right-wingers are the main problem today. Not that it matters, since they 'own' the minds of the children when they go to school, any public library, and then college.
Of course, you may ask, why wasn't Martin Luther King Jr arrested for statutory rape when the PBI report shows he was involved in this, and even invited one of his minister friends to join his private party. It's really disgusting that people hold him up when the FBI report shows quite the opposite.
I guess it's like how many Indians esteem Mahatma Gandhi, who was a racist who thought black people were terrible.
And how many liberals in the US think JFK was a god, and his wife a goddess, when he was no better than MLK with respect to his adulterous behavior. |

Today it is very common to see women lifted up, encouraged to do more, etc.
There are now more women going to college than men.
Thus, we can say 'the world' is in complete contrast to the Bible (as if, in the 1950s with the stay-at-home moms in TV series like "Father Knows Best" and "Leave it to Beaver" we could say the world was walking in line with the Bible).
Thus, we see how the verses in 1 Timothy 5 were about widows (just like James 1:27 that says real religion is taking care of widows, but here and in many other places, you will find some Christians much more interested in debating A vs. B or C vs. D. For them 'real religion' is debating others. The Bible, here, James 1:27, does not agree with them.) but if you study Paul here and in his other letters, you will see this is all part of a Christian society. A good sermon series would use these verses and be called "God's Vision for a Christian Society."
Principle 1: families should support their own widows so that the church can help those who have no families. Paul even says those who do not help their own families are worse than unbelievers!
Principle 2: the church should help widows in need, but only if they have done good works like 'washing the feet of the saints.' The aid is not automatic.
