Jesus Wept

[dilloduck]

I am not against Christians. My family is Christian. I am against people who claim to be Christian and who hide behind Jesus and then go out and do the Devil's work.

The Bible says that the Devil is a liar and the Father of lies.

You people will not only lie but you will do things such as researching a person's background in order to make personal attacks upon them simply because you are so stupid you can't debate them.

The rightwing base is the Christian Right. Yet there is nothing christian about you. the Bible says "By their fruits you know them".

Jesus doesn't slink and slip and slide and lie. The truth will set you free. If you can't defend your arguments then the only thing to do is to change your mind. Not attack people just because they present facts you can't dispute.

Being a Christian is a living, changing, dynamic thing. Being political is a living, changing, dynamic thing.

You people are not living. You have a religious dogma that cannot respond to change. It is fixed. It is set.

You have a political dogma that cannot respond to change. It is fixed. It is set. When someone comes along and says something that shakes your dogma you cannot respond with truth and life. You have to resort to dirty lowdown tricks because that is the only way in which you can protect your DOGMA.

And a sorry sad dogma it is. You seem to think that public debate in America is all about the cult of personality. George Bush is your hero. Like little children you defend him. Fox Network has reduced and denigigrated public debate and free speech in America to a pointless exercise of propping up somebody's hero. Hero worship is for morons.

You have silly avatars like arnold Schwartznegger as the Terminator. You cannot distinguish between a movie character and a public servant. I hope Arnold is not as hopelessly lost as you are.

The terminator was a machine. Fixed. Lifeless. PROGRAMMED.

I have enjoyed about as much of this as I can stand. I hope you people grow up someday. How dismal that people like you get to vote.

Witness - the base of the Republican Party. A bunch of childish nitwits who have no idea that the Grand Old Party is the party of the wealthy. The party of Corporations and the top 10% of households in the US that own 73% of the wealth.

I can buy the fact that hypocrites are frustrating. When you can admit that the live on both sides of the aisle, you may be worth listening to.

Tell you what, yeula. When you become a Christian, and really understand what being a Christian is all about, then I'll listen to your rants about what it means to be a Christian. In the meantime, here's a clue for you: not all Christians are Republicans, and not all Republicans are Christians.

There are a great deal of Christians that are part of the Republican Party because it is the only party that sticks up for them. Almost ninety percent of blacks are Democrat because that was the main party that stuck up for them in the sixties. Liberals have helped lead the nation into a state of moral relativism that says that nothing is right or wrong for sure. There are Christians that are Democrats for good ethical reasons, such as helping out the poor and social justice. However, there are also Republicans that are Christians that care for the same things and go about it in a different way. This then becomes an economic debate about whether capitalism or socialism is better for caring for the poor. Look at America's poor, they are richer than any other poor in the world. This is because of capitalism.

Liberals and the way they behave should not force you to behave badly Gem. thats just another way of saying the liberals made me do it. Surely self control is a part of being personally responsible.

When people behave badly concerning sexual activity that is their failure at personal responsibility and they have no one to blame but themselves. After all most of us don't become alcoholics, drug addicts and whoremongers just because that is the way Bush behaved.

What if all of the soldiers refused to serve in the war because that is what Bush did?

What if all students got Ds and then blamed it on Bush?

What if Democrats stole elections because that is what republicans do?

What if all nations in the world attacked their neighbors without provacation and then blamed the US because that is what we do?

The issue here is personal responsibility. Not putting the blame on others when we act like assholes.

Let me get this straight, Yeula. Are you saying that liberals are retards?
