It's too bad "he" hasn't digested it!

PS The Rapture is a Protestant Dream!

Well, I have moral qualms about all three candidates, btw, I wish we were "allowed" three candidates in America! I really don't like the two party system. I'll admit my qualms about Hillary and Barak are a lot deeper than the ones I have about McCain. IF I vote, which I probably won't, it will be for the best of two evils.

If I don't vote, it will be a big deal, as I've voted for president every time since the day I turned 18 and voted for Reagan. What an exciting day that was. I "used" to love politics in my youth. I worked for a Republican fundraising company in Washington, DC for four years. I've become a little bitter about it all after having to tell my boss I couldn't do any work involving Arlen Spector, since he was a big Republican Pro-Abort! I also grew bitter after the way the Republican Party treated Pat Buchanan, who wrote many of the great speeches of Republican presidents. Maybe he didn't fit in with them perfectly, but does Arlen?

Isn't his very own preacher a bit of a bigot?

It sounds as if he has plenty of antipathy about those who are different from "him" such as religions people and people who own guns and probably homeschoolers and libertarians and on and on.

Whose quote is this? Cling to guns and religion --??? CC

Yes, this man/woman has a womb, which is necessary to carry and nuture a baby. Without a womb, how would the baby attach to the parent for food and nutrients? Where would the ambionic fluid come from, etc... A man does not have a womb, so scientists would have to make him an artifical one -- would "he" really be pregnant then?

Could you link me to this story.


I haven't found a real pregnant man in the news today. I think you may have read a story about a pregnant woman who would like to "be" a man but really is a woman. I think an artifical womb will happen before a real pregnant man.

I’ve always been fascinated by the Jews. I actually may have some Jewish blood in me! I’ve read lots of books about them (recently, The Year of Living Biblically, which I enjoyed). But, I do get irritated when the Jews think they can get away with anything, just because they suffered during the Holocaust. They are NOT the only race or religion to suffer genocide. All through history, these terrible things have happened. Think of the Armenian Christians in Turkey, murdered by the millions in the early 1900’s, the Rwandan genocide, the murder of millions and millions of Christians by Lenin, Stalin and Mao Tse Tung etc…

Anyway, the Jews were horrible and cruel to the Palestinians (quite of few of these Palestinians were Christian, btw) when they stole Israel mid-century. I just read a book about this called, In Search of Fatima by Ghanda Karmi. I was amazed by the behavior of the Jews, so soon after they had suffered so much at the hands of Hitler etc…

This doesn’t excuse the terrorism of the Palestinian and other Arabs, but I think the events in Palestine in the last century have caused many hard feelings among the Arabs and made things even more tumultuous in the Middle East.

War is something I think should really be avoided, unless absolutely necessary! I'll admit that nuclear warheads and Islam is a very frightening mix. Nonetheless, I still feel we should be very, very careful.
We really aren't wanted over there in the Middle East. They really don't want our hedonistic culture. It would be great if we were trying to convert them to Christianity (I would feel a lot safer), but I think we are just bringing them rubbish.

My theory is to let them fight it out amongst themselves.

And I don't feel too sorry for Israel, I think they've asked for it. (did I really say that???)

He supports stem cell research.

He voted to confirm pro-life supreme court judges -- Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and Stephen Breyer. Will he really fight for a pro-life supreme court judges? I really doubt it. (the only thing I like about Bush is his Supreme Court nominees).

The McCain-Feingold takes away the rights of pro-lifers to name friend and foes in campaign ads. I support negative campaign ads -- IF THEY ARE TRUE!

He's a war monger, I'm very against the war in Iraq and I think he may lead us to war in Iran. I'm not big on the Idea of WWIII. War is NOT a good thing. It is a punishment for sin --not something we should hope or WORK for. It is a LAST RESORT.

Not that Obama and Hillary are better.

I'll probably not vote for any of them.

Are you sure you want to get me started on politics? I'm a crunchy con, fyi!!!

I don't fit in!!! I'm a liberal conservative!

I was torn between Ron Paul and Huckabee, rather favoring Huckabee.

I will NOT be voting for McCain(old boy networker, warmonger, not "really" pro-life" etc..., big business lover. I'm a lover of private enterprise on the local level) OR Obama, OR Clinton (baby killers, one-world-govenment, against traditional marriage, etc... etc... etc..). I guess I'll be writing in my own candidate -- Pat Buchanan, perhaps. Shoot away!!!
