Sorry, I'll edit the above. People who disregard all debate because the "other side" is not as enlightened as thine holy one, are much to blame. Don't want to paint with too definitive a brush as to give 1 person power over the less enlightened.


It's a bit like the swing vs nymph/bead crowd. We should all be on the same side yet we're fractured, for no reason, really. All we do is argue which side is worse. I think we deserve better than that.

I didn't think y'all believed in such things as the devil? If there's a Devil, is there a God?

That's a whole nother post.

Person has to have goals in life.

Who is "y'all?"

Was the irony intentional that directly after accusing someone of dividing the nation, you insinuate that anyone not aligned with the conservative mindset is athiest?

Perhaps your dumbest post yet - on so many levels. You managed to combine name calling, a gross generalization, and a erroneous assumption all in one sentence.

Wasn't a shred of truth in it your original comment, but mine was spot on. I bet it did hurt. It should have.

If you enjoy questioning a man's religion, name calling and gross generalizations you should be proud. Otherwise . . .

Never seen one . . . wow, no wonder you are so often totally wrong. Not one??? That almost seems like another generalization.

Please feel free to respond with more name calling its so sophisticated.

Lot's of name calling from both sides of the political parties...some might say constant from a few select posters regardless of any religious view.

Hank hasn't seen one because he subconsciously ignores anything that does not support his preconceived ideas.

Most of the time.

Gohardly is a dik weasel of the highest order, I'm NOT a Christian.

Prove it, or admit you're lieing, again.

Nice deflection.

You should probably note this instance, considering how often I make unintentional spelling errors.

For one I am not responsible for what Todd or others think or post. Hell I'm going to go fish with you and sure hope that doesn't make anyone think I agree with your views.

I have a lot of respect for anyone who truly believes, whatever they believe, especially if they make a serious effort to live what their religion teaches. One of my regular fishing buddies is a very devout believer in what many might consider a fringe religion. We often have long, mutually respectful discussion of religion. But I have little tolerance for those who try to insist their form of spirituality is the only correct form.

That does NOT mean I do not believe in God. But I very likely do not believe in your God. Is that okay in America?

Well I am not very educated on politics or religion but I figure when we die we will all see a version of god depending on your beliefs. I would rather have rational people passing laws and what not that make OUR time here better and let me worry about what happens to me in the afterlife based upon how I lived my life in accordance with what I believe. After all the worms don't give a crap about what taxes I paid.

I never could see why a man's religious beliefs should be much of a factor in how well he governs. I can see choosing not to vote for a man or woman becasue of their beleif in some strange cult. i.e the Branch Davidians or such.

Only when I ain't noodlin'

Any one who has followed Newt's career would think he is an embarassment.
