I learned a LOT about religion and deities, when I wondered "why don't I get what everyone else does"? I learned...they've been snookered...for 10%.

There are a LOT of "God's Laws" they don't follow. Their "Bible" has been picked over, rewritten, books deleted...until it became a shell of the "original". They believe that the books of Matthew and John are "original" written by the original apostles. The Protestants were protesting...

The trouble is...they get their information fro fellow believers and they never get to hear opposing views. Like here when I talk about minorities...they have their preconceived beliefs and they won't hear ANYTHING contradictory.



If you know the answer...you don't have a question. And you THINK you have an answer with a "God"...you couldn't be more wrong.



You MUST know the trees to know the forest. For the forest is nothing if not a collection of individual trees.
You would probably be a lot happier if you just went ahead and prayed to Allah 5x a day

Allah is simply the Arabic word for God. So, yes, they pray to God 5 times every day. They also say a prayer over every animal they kill for food, and send it to its death humanely. Now consider how "Christians" get their beef...thousands herded into slaughterhouses smelling of blood and fear, then clubbing to death. Hmmm.

How far back did you go for that post?

It's also the SAME God as the Jews and Christians...

Just different "interpretations" of what God wants/demands.

I have a problem with any diety that demands anything from anyone.

The point of this post was to connect Christianity to Liberty, through the Golden Rule, as follows:

The Magic Sentences of Liberty

Liberty is a poetic term for property rights.

Therefore there are only two kind of laws:

Type 1) those that protect property rights

Type 2) and those that attack property rights <--- where fascism of all kinds live

"Have the government do unto others and their property as you'd have the government do unto you, and your property."

We can eliminate 90% of the conflict we call politics with first principles of liberty.

"What does God need with a starship?"

What could a Omnipotent God want/need from us?

To be worshiped? Really? Self esteem problem? God may very well be a woman!

Well it seems that in this nation today what we need more than ever is a belief and faith in God.

I have rediscovered the rosary and I offer my prayers in behalf of this great nation that seems to be going adrift into prolific stupidity.

Am I a Christian? yes. Am I a good Christian? I will leave that to be answered by my God.

Personal Best Regards:

Our FORMERLY great nation is suffering from minority majority...it will NEVER recover.

You'll be waiting a LONG time...

Everything you write speaks to your state of mind. You have allowed yourself to become tainted with hate, anger and despair and hence hopelessness. You are one who needs to reflect and to engage in reaffirmations.

Indeed the world is an imperfect place but an intelligent person does not allow him/herself to remain unhappy. Intelligent people work at finding the good in this life.

"Two men looking out from bars
One sees the ground, the other the stars"

Thankfully you and I are not wards of N. Korea gulags
thankfully we are not imprisoned for our beliefs, our politics.

Unfortunately it seems easier for you to place blame on a whole race of people or gender.

You continue to confuse "character/behaviors with color, etc"

Everything I write is TRUTH...is REALITY...is what's happening.

WHAT improves when that RACE shows up? What? Name me ONE thing that gets better when blacks start showing up. Do they IMPROVE schools and neighborhoods? No...they DESTROY them.

It IS their character...their violence...their stupidity...their dirtiness...they ruin EVERYTHING they touch.

I'm STILL waiting for anyone to tell me...what are the things that blacks improve?

I am a Christian. Not a wonderful example but still a Christian.

I love many things about our faith. I think the world is better for it.

I respect all faiths except the ones that say in their holy book that you should kill all others who aren't in your faith.

And I am annoyed with some who don't see that danger.

Why do you "respect" people who are wrong?

If I keep telling you...insisting...the sky is red...would you respect me?

If I keep telling you "God" is really made out of spaghetti and orbits the earth...would you respect me?

How about this...if I kept insisting that the genders are EQUAL in their abilities...that blacks were just as smart and capable as white people...would you respect me?

EVERY one of those statements were false...and NOT something you "respect" someone for believing.
