Amen. He needs to know that God loves him just as he is.

Remember the Billy Graham crusuade song? "Just as I am." One day the Lord and him will have an encounter and he will become a new creature, his whole life will be brand new. I know, I was a worse sheep than him I bet. If Jesus can save me, He can save anybody. Right now we just need to exercise love and patience with him as he learns through nature and lifes experiences. God will place stepping stones in his life like He does all of us.

Oh, gnashing of teeth! Loud moaning! Golly gosh darn dang it, too, by golly.

Wake up and smell the coffee. Not only is Christianity not the only religion practiced in America, but less people are practicing religion at all. Before you start whining and moaning about the terrible awfulness of it all, take a breath and consider WHY this is happening.

You have the Catholic Church revealed to be a bunch of child molesters and even Catholics have turned away from their church by the millions over this.

You have the Creationists making total asses of themselves by insisting that evolution isn't a fact, that everything came into being in a few days, and that no creature has changed over time in spite of not only the fossil record but the recent record.

You have that jackass minister who I hear died recently, finally, the one who behaved horribly at the funerals of soldiers.

You have people like Obama's tutor, Rev. White and his "God damn America", and the list just keeps going on. You have the Far Right acting like they own Christianity with their Right To Life crap and the atheists raising hell over creche displays at Christmas, and all the MSM and retail outlets saying "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas.

You think it's just one thing? It's a pile of things. I have God in my life though I don't subscribe to any organized religion, and it's the hypocrisy I found in all of them that turned me away.
You want to know why Americans are turning away from religion? It's because of all the discord among you, all the pushy proselytizing, the politicizing, the child molesting, the screaming.

I read what a lot of you so-called Christians have to say here and most of you leap to attack, viciously attack, anyone who disagrees with you. YOU are why Americans are turning away from Christianity as much as anything else.

We took prayer out of school/////removed Christ off public property. In other word threw Him off the land, He created and owns. How would you like it if someone came and tried, to threw you off the property, you have a clear deed to. Removing the Bible. We are trying, to remove Him completely out of our lives. Even the movie industry, when you see a prayer, in one in their films, you hardly ever hear, in the name of Jesus Christ, at the end of it. Just maybe, He is getting a little upset with our denying Him. Is he increasing all these tornators, earthquakes and other things, to open our eyes for us, to come back, to our first love. Why do we have an evil political administration. Something is wrong. Why all the fighting with words on this very website. Something is wrong. Something is badly wrong. America I believe we will see more and more of the Lord's Judgment on us, if we continue on this road. The Churches are teaching false teaching, traditions of man. Preachers are preaching for money. They are not preaching the cross, or there is no forgiving of sin without the shedding of blood, which was shed by Jesus Christ. They are preaching a feel good Gospel. Many are even charging us to buy tickets to hear them preach. Something is wrong.

You don't need deep conspiratorial research to unearth the Clinton sins. They are all there up front and center for all to see. I'm not talking about Bill's "romantic" adventures.

I know I must sound repetitive but I really am deeply troubled by the idea of a Clinton 2.0 presidency.

Just a quick review:

Bill Clinton pushed through NAFTA, which caused many high paying jobs to be outsourced to Singapore, China, India and Mexico, where the multi-nationals could pay vastly lower wages and not have to worry about the EPA forcing them to protect clean water and air. *(You have a thin understanding of NAFTA: For one, the US had enjoyed such prosperity we had grown into a consumer nation unable to compete in the world marketplace. The Bush Recession was certainly exacerbated by this fact and NAFTA attempted to t***sition our country toward a sustainable market position. It would never "Feel Good" but it was a necessary response for a viable economic future. That fact has not been disproven at all.)*

Bill pushed through the repeal of the Glass-Steagal Act, which prevented banks and brokerages from having overlapping interests. It was originally passed during the depression to prevent another financial collapse from happening again. Result of the repeal? Brokerages started bundling and trading mortgages like they were baseball cards. Economic depression? You betcha. *(That's is one theory.....)*

What about the short version of Hillary's sins?

Being a shill for Wall Street. Taking $400,000 for two speeches to Goldman Sachs. *(Speech for profit is hardly unique- shill for wall street is pretty interpretive- even if I am no fan of valuing unearned wage of hard work, this is how our free market system works. You aren't some socialist type are you???)*

V****g in favor of launching a war against Iraq. *(Solidarity with the duly elected CinC, Bush, during national emergency seems unfortunate in retrospect- because of the bad decision-making, but is hardly inappropriate)*

Being opposed to international land mine treaties (Its not her children losing arms, legs, eyes, and lives). *(Not the reason she v**ed nay- read more and cut and paste less)*

Being opposed to restrictions on armaments sales to the nations with the worst human rights violations. *(Again, not the reason for her v**e- more poorly informed cut-n-paste)*

Bill and Hillary jointly? How about the fact that they are really more an English royalty type merger rather than a genuine marriage. *(You are going downhill fast now)*

Clinton Inc. is now worth over a $ hundred million. Isn't it incredible how well they have invested Bill's p**********l pension so well? Think they might owe anyone some special favors? *(Getting even more confused- When speaking of your own you generally see wealth as proof of merit and free-market, trickle-down at work for freedom and prosperity. Which is it???)*


No need to get into black opps and clandestine interviews in an underground Watergate garage. Their danger to this nation is out there as plain as day. The Democrats, especially, need to wise up to the danger these people present to working Americans and vulnerable innocents in third world countries. *(Blackwater, Martial Law Lite, Scuds and Drones, Special Forces, Renditioning, Pre-emptive War Doctrine...?)*

It takes a whole village to raise a child, Hillary? *(Correct- community is crucial- Me-the-People is not the America I love. Jesus agrees.)*

How about, "it takes a whole village to bury a child that has stepped on a land mine?"
