		<description>I still think Obama is too &#039;green&#039; to be a viable candidate.  Give him a few years to develop a &#039;resume&#039; in office.

		<description>In Doug&#039;s world all racists are Republicans and none are Democrats.Doug thinks I give a shit about Barak Obama... well all I can say is, I&#039;m not the one who brought up &quot;African wangs.&quot; I guess that&#039;s the real reason Doug and his liberal friends get their panties wet when they think of Barak Obama? They think &quot;African wangs.&quot;

Gahahahahahahaha!!!!

		<description>Since Obama pisses off insane fundies like CrusaderX so much I&#039;ll support his candidacy.  It&#039;ll also make the racist Republicans scream non-stop in anger that someone who is half Black will be in charge of the country.

The question is, will reichwingers foam in the mouth more over Obama than they did Howard Dean whose predictions about the Iraq occupation were proven correct?  Or will they foam more about Hillary and the thought that a female could be in charge.  They already went nuts about Pelosi.  All we need is a half-Black female President then their heads will explode.  Stupid bigots.

		<description>Who the fuck cares? The truth of the matter is nobody should give a flying fuck about this! The only thing that separates Barak Obama from any other politician is that he&#039;s BLACK and he could become PRESIDENT! That is the ONLY FUCKING REASON the Liberals are wetting themselves! He sweet-talks just like any other politician, and everymotherfucker in this country eats it up!

		<description>Yeah, fleet, that stereotype about Africans having large wangs sure does go back a long time.  How come the preachers don&#039;t have sermons about well hung Egyptians?  Well, Ted Haggard might have but not many others.

		<description>This is one of my favorites.

Ezekiel 23:19-20 NET

Yet she increased her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth when she engaged in prostitution in the land of Egypt. She lusted after their genitals – as large as those of donkeys, and their seminal emission was as strong as that of stallions.

1 John 5:13Romans 10:9-10 and other scriptures tell me that my salvation is secure. Jesus paid the price for my sin.  There is nothing left fo me to do.  As Paul said, &quot;I am chief of sinners&#039;, but I repented and trusted what Jesus did on the cross for me. I&#039;m afraid that a lot of knees will bow after it is too late.  James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.  They acknowledge God, but there is no hope for them. A lot of people beleive that there is a god, but have not scriptually accepted His terms (bend the knee before Jesus). I&#039;m afraid they will suffer the same fate.

		<description>&quot;All you can do is trust that God&#039;s judgement is always fair and just,...&quot;

What could be more just or more fair that getting fair warning?John 3:16 is considered the fair warning.

		<description>Dale, the Bible also says in Isaiah &quot;Every knee shall bow, every tongue shall confess to God...&quot; Some people interpret this as saying everyone will eventually come to Christ and be saved. There are some sects of Christianity who think that salvation is possible after death; the pain and agony of &quot;hell&quot; is purifying and causes sincere repentence...and when that happens, when the sinner is ready, he will join God.

Now, how do you know THAT interpretation isn&#039;t correct and yours wrong? The truth is, you don&#039;t. I don&#039;t. None of us know for certain. All you can do is trust that God&#039;s judgement is always fair and just, and live out your life, rather than fancying yourself saving people from an oncoming train.Don&#039;t you have enough to worry about with your salvation?  Why are you peering over at the guy next to you? Let your actions testify to your faith.

		<description>I love how the right portrays liberals as &#039;elitists&#039; constantly. How ironic then that the base of the Republican Party thinks that they, and only they who follow the bizarre and completely political version of evangelical Christianity, are good Christians who will get into heaven. If that&#039;s not arrogant elitism, I don&#039;t know what is. Unfortunately, since most of them don&#039;t have two critical brain cells to rub together, they don&#039;t see the hypocrisy.

Cognitive dissonance: an everyday fact of life for right-wing psychos.

		<description>How can the evangelical way be the &#039;narrow&#039; way, when most of Christians are evangelicals?

Leads me to believe the ones who are the majority should be re-thinking their religion- for God was referring to you- that goes for the rich as well.

		<description>I am glad that Dale do know that GOD believes in freedom. Then the so-call moral majority or envagelical christian like Dale need to understand that the scripture read &quot;come as you are&quot; don&#039;t force people to follow Christ on your term. Let people see your good work and glorify the father who is in heaven, not in your pupit. I think it is time for these people to short up and become fishers of men. Stay out of politic, religion and politics don&#039;t mix. Pray - If my people who are called by my name will pray and turn away from their wicked way will I (The Lord) heal the land.

I&#039;m sick of them treating all of us who don&#039;t subscribe to their idea of God, like we need an intervention- here&#039;s a news flash for you.  We think YOU&#039;RE the ones who are delusional.  We see YOU as living your lives by the words of a fairy tale.

		<description>I am sick and tired of hearing about how persecuted these Evangelical Christians are.  Give me a break. They have been running the show in the GOP and they also got their butts beat in the last election.

No one wants to hear your tantrums and whining.  Maybe if you would act like real Christians, the rest of America would listen to your point of view.  Instead, you let your false prophets like Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and Ted Haggard do the talking for you.

Your side has shown nothing but hate-filled rhetoric and you expect everyone else to bow down just because you throw out the name God?

You do not have the monopoly on christianity nor God.

But keep up your current tactics and your side will never see the inside of power again - thank the real God.

As a Christian, I don&#039;t take it personally because I consider the limitations of the source(s).

		<description>Fanee

Yes, I am thankful for the freedoms that we have. Even God believes in freedom. He doesn&#039;t make us do anything, He believes in choice. God says &#039;whosoever&#039; believes on His only begotten Son shall not perish, but have everlasting life.  God lets you choose what you want to believe. As for me and my house, we choose to believe what God said. &#039;For by grace are you saved and not of yourself, it is a gift of God.  Not of works that no man may boast.&#039; (Eph 2:8-9)  I certainly am not good enough to be saved. But, God said that I didn&#039;t have to be good enough, just forgiven.  Why are we accused of hating others when we want to help them to understand how to have eternal life?

		<description>One funny thing that shows how insane Brownback is was when Brownback welcomed Obama at the event.  Brownback welcomed Obama to &quot;my house.&quot;  Brownback thinks he&#039;s god and churches are houses of worship devoted to him.

		<description>The religious bigotry of the left is what is absolutely stunning.  Every time I read one of these blogs and see the manner in which people of faith are discussed i can&#039; help but think back to the days of the Klan or the early years of the Third Reich it&#039;s absolutely frightening to see where this country is headed.

Narrow minded, authoritarian, bigoted - leftist, find your own mirror.
