But what about spreading the Gospel online? That's not wrong.
I mean, if you really think about it: the human mouth is no more pure than music, or the internet. And yet -- we are called to worship with the mouth. Therefore, we should also worship through music, the internet, and whatever else is available, as all those methods of expression are equally as impure as the mouth itself.

Well said.
This is the most spiritual I've ever gotten on the internet since... ever
We don't really have any influence over South America. I wish we did, because most Latin American countries are either violent anarchies or have very low quality of living, but as it is we don't.
The reason we didn't care as much about Africa is because they didn't possess a direct threat to the US. The reason we attempted to make South America align with US interests is because at the time a lot of communist regimes backed by the USSR were emerging down there -- in some cases, even being provided with weapons by the USSR to strike against America. While similar regimes came about in Africa and we did try to stop them, they were not as high-priority as in South America.
I don't think we're actively working to change any regimes in Asia. With the naval force we have, we could easily overtake Asia or force a regime change if we wanted to.
Me personally -- I am opposed to US intervention. Like it or not -- other countries have sovereighnty.
I mean, Venezuela might be experiencing a famine -- but the government is literally dysfunctional, and is only concerned with the issue of whether or not Maduro finishes his term, an annoying tug-of-war which has left the government doing nothing for its people.
Mexico is doing the best it can considering it is faced with not only gang violence: but also with a broken economy brought on by trade of cheap corn from the US, which ran Mexico's corn farmers out of business just in time for the US to suddenly switch to trading corn oil with Mexico, instead of corn. Thusly: the price of corn has gone up to absurd levels.
Cuba at the moment is an oppressive regime. However -- Diplomacy with the US will probably change the country for the better (I wouldn't call that intervention).
I'm... PRETTY sure Argentina is decent
I mean -- the best thing to do with these countries is to just talk to them, and give them politics lessons most of them are either suffering from dysfunctional government, a brutalized economy, or an overly-functional government.
Lets go 1 by 1 through all 12 countries of South America Bolivia - Super poor, but environmentally friendly Venezuela- massive oil reserves, super broke, people have no food. Paraguay- Bolivia 2.0 but more envioromental Guyana- super poor, but the fond oil they will probs become Venezuela 2.0 Argentina- corruption, too much debt Uruguay- only thing I know is there president is super cheap, he lives in a shack (no joke)
Colombia- 2 decade civil war Ecuador- I know nothing about it except Assange is hiding in their embassy Chille- Us overthrew the democratic goernement here put Pinochet in power. Now it has one of the worlds worst income inequalitys. Peru- I know they are becoming rich. Brazil- Oh boy where do we start, from 2nd largest brics economy to bankruptcy. Massive corruption. Huge government wastage in the Olympics and fifa world cup. There economy shrunk by 800 billion dollars over 4 years, the only country that tops them by this massive economy destruction is Russia. (Atleast we are no.1 in something )
South america is mostly dominated by America, we just got rid of some leaders there. Africa we tried but we don't care about Africans. Asia and Middle east were working on.
We don't really have any influence over South America. I wish we did, because most Latin American countries are either violent anarchies or have very low quality of living, but as it is we don't.

We helped put in those anarchies, we got rid of Dilma Rouseff, the president of Argentina andtried to get rid of Ecuadors leader. Africa is kind of a racist view, they won't go becuase their not white and that's pretty much the truth.
I finally pulled up a verse in Colossians that'll end this: Colossians 3:16.
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord."
Anyway, most of them don't use instruments simply as choice. I don't think they care one way or another.
Thank you. There is obviously nothing wrong with singing, as this verse shows, and the fact that Jesus and the Apostles sang a hymn the night of the last supper, and Paul and Silas sang hymns in the jail and Philippi, and in Ephesians 5:19, which is very similar to the verse in Colossians.
Now, neither verse mentions musical instruments, but since we can clearly sing, what's wrong with instruments?
Well were told to eta the Lords Supper every week so what's wrong with adding cheese into it?
