Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me. Have a great week. Hope to talk again sometime.

why are you yelling? I stated my opinion and you have stated yours. So why all the yelling? And yes you are right that the first w****s where not christians. That being said, when the country was founded and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights where writen , it WAS based on what I stated earlier, and everything else I said still apply. Do you know who was the first person to ever own a s***e in this country was by a black man. So instead of yelling at those who disagree with you, youshould consider that there are alot of things that are unknown to us and when something does surface, it should be examined and explored as to the accurracy of the evidence provided. Have a lovely day and God Bless you and yours. Peace.

Who's trying to dictate policy here? It's not the Christians, this country was founded on the Bible and the teachings therein. Now this country has always be about freedom, and that includes religion. I am not trying to do anything to anyone. But if one travels here to relocate from their homeland to have a better life (which is fine by me) Then they should stop trying to remake our country into something it was never meant to be, I mean if they want what they had in their home country, then they should go home. NOBODY is forcing them to stay.

No, there should be total t***sparentency of all donations made to anyone running for any public office, even p**********l races. No matter how small or large the donation, it needs to be public. After all if they are with in the laws then no need to be secret.

Hi Adrian,
Well you and I are in agreement on the issue of human rights no matter which country is breaching those rights. To that point I want to bring up something that is happening right here in the US. In CO a school has started a program for turtoring kids after school, which is a good idea, except for the fact that this program is only available to children of color. Yes, they used that term, "color", how long has it been since that term has been used because b****s didn't like the term and felt it r****t. And why are the white kids excluded? Are they saying black kids need special attention to learn and white kids don't? I've heard some say that different races have different intelligence levels, I don't know about that. But until now I've never heard anyone say a black kid is harder to teach than a white child. The person who purposed this action is a black man. What message is this sending the young black people? I take this as a r****t way of thinking and should not be tolerated by anyone, no matter your color, same as with your belief system, respect each other and try not to force your views on another, go ahead and share them if one shows an interest in your beliefs and not condem them for their personal choice. So this doesn't end with religion. The moral fiber of people should show compassion and hold a respect of others as you would have them respect you. I grew up, and then taught my sons that "You treat others as you want to be treated" if you don't respect another, how can you expect that respect to given to you. People need to stop with the dumbs**t stuff and just get to basics and do the right thing towards each other, help each other and try to ease the suffering of those around you.

Hi again.
I love talking with you. I also agree with what you are saying. That we do not have the right to force our values on other countries who do not share ours. I DO think the global community has the responsiblity that IF asked to help assist those suffering human rights violations. But they should be invited either by the country or the population of said country. I agree we do not have the right to force ourselves on others any more than they should us. But it's the double standards that I take offense at. Christians can no longer pray in school, even silently, but the islamic kids have prayer rooms and are excused to pray according to their beliefs, how is that fair?? This is the sort of thing I am talking about. Look forward to here from you again. God Bless and Peace to you.

Hi Tim, I am back for my trip. I went to Yakima, WA to see my son and his family and to see the Carrie Underwood concert, which was great by the way. But I am glad to be home and in my own bed and not a couch. So, now I just have to catch up on anything I may have missed. :)

I agree with you completely Don. Look forward to viewing more of your thoughts and opinions. Welcome :)

Hi, Sorry forgot to mention just because those symbols are visiable doesn't mean that one HAS to choose that faith, it's our way of showing where this country came from, what it's core is based on and nothing more, nothing anywhere says you HAVE to be this or that.

Greetings. I do agree with you to a point. This country, America was built and based on the Bible and Christian beliefs. Yes, this country is a melting pot of sorts in that ALL religion is welcomed in this country. But if as you say that a country based on the Bible AND Christian beliefs should not show it's roots in public, then I would say that goes for ALL other religions also, including the muslims (sorry for spelling), We cannot use the word God in school or even in a child's report without causing offense to somebody, and for the stupidest things. Then I say that the other religions should not shove their beliefs at me, they got their prayer time in schools, so tell me, what's the difference? And as for Athiests Why are they worried about something they don't think is real? They could just ignore it. When someone moves to a country, they come because they are leaving their's for a reason, but then they get here, and want what they had, and want US to stange to meet their needs. I say if you move to a country, you speak THAT language and learn the laws of that country and accept what that country represents. If they don't like it they could go back to their home counrties. It isn't like what America stands for or her roots is a big surprise to anyone in the world. And as far as separation of church and state, yes I agree that they should remain separate. So then why has obama catered to the muslium botherhood and other types of their kind, they want to install shara law and such, to me that is far more offensive than we showing the commandments on the lawn of some courthouse. If I go to Canada, then I will accept the ways of their country, same if I go to Italy, Germany or where ever. Same should be here in America.

Hi Tim, I am Jeanne. Yes I was a Dem. for along time, but all this crap has sent me running the other way. I am going out of town for a couple days so will be offline. But please leave messages or new information I might miss. Thanks and yeah, it's good to be among friends. God Bless you.

I have been watching events unfold here in America and frankly I am scared to death for our future. What I haven't seen is the reaction of the christian population...This amazes me. I mean the government has been steadily been taking God out of everything public. It's getting so bad that our troops are gagged from voicing their thoughts. For the sake of not offending the enemy, the same ones that k**l us, slander us, threaten us and generally spread h**e against christian citizens this is unacceptable. I don't here any outcry for our rights, beliefs, they have stolen the constitution and the bill of rights and taken over just about every area of our lives, just look around, open your eyes. I am not sure, but I feel we are at the end times the bible speaks of and that everything so far is dead on and I am awaiting 2 more events then I will have absolute proof. I will not deny my faith and love for my Lord and God, nor will I become a s***e, or a be forced to worship any God but the true God. I am a child of Christ, flawed and sinful, broken and sick at heart but I also have great hope. I have faith that God is doing exactly what He promised. I am scared of what I might suffer and what will become of this great land we have been blessed with. God said, "Fear not for I am with you" remember and with Him as He is with us, even though we are not worthy. God Bless and Peace.

Hi yourself :)
Not only is very hard to get the t***h, but it even harder to make people believe that this is even happening. I've tried to talk to many in my family and they don't want to hear it. So here I am trying to prepare, and I feel the best way to do that is to have knowledge. So keep searching and voice your thoughts and concerns or anything else you wish. God Bless and Peace to you.

Well you, me and the rest of the country and world for that matter knows we have a spending problem. When we do it, it's fraud. When the government does it, it's okay since they have no accountability anymore and after all it isn't their money it's OURS. Obama and his goons are the danger, but the bigger danger is congress and other government branches are doing absolutely nothing about it..so who's the real evil, the one in our face or the ones stabbing us in the back for a few more dollars they don't need or haven't earned.

I am a guessing that the whole government needs to go and the entire system needs to be reformed with proper accountability and a firm set of checks and balances so that this sort of crap doesn't happen ever again, not here in America. I am heart sick over what's happening. The obama administration isn't even hiding it anymore and congress seems to be just sitting on their asses letting it happen. So I blame them all since I hear very very little outcry.
