Oh good grief. The meltdown is not something God has done. It is what the Republicans have done.

I really can''''t blame these people. I don''''t agree with their Allah''''s retribution *** but the fact remains bush''''s approach to everything has been "my way or the highway". He is totally ignorant of world history not to mention current history. He has ruined our military and our economy for his ego and a neocon agenda. He has done more damage to us and the world than the terrorist could have ever dreamed of.

Isn''t rather disgusting that Cheney has almost completely gone AWOL he''s the one that was behind most of Bush''s irresponsible policies

Well, America has one chance to gloat back at the middle east--start investing in alternative fuels, vehicles, and infrastructure, as Obama as suggested, reduce our need for oil consumption, and bankrupt the middle eastern economies instead of our own. Or, you can vote for the candidate whose bright idea is to "drill, drill, drill," knowing full well America''s entire oil reserves will only supply a fraction of our current oil consumption needs, leaving us in a position of needing middle eastern oil in perpetuity. America MUST end its oil addiction and diversify its fuel sources and vehicles, not send another friend of the oil lobby to Washington.

What we need is a Christian nation
Posted by ocguy64 at 10:21 PM : Oct 11, 2008



We will not have a Christian Nation or world until Jesus returns to rule. Read the Bible and you will learn that, Jesus will only return when GOD tells him to, not when man wants him to. The Islamic Jihaddist think ''they'' can force their god, (Allah) to come and kill their enemies. It won''t happen religious extremist of any order (Christian, Islam, Bhuddah) are shouting in the wind when they try to force any Deity to their will. They are shedding the blood of others wrongly when they do so.

Your opinion. Not the truth. I don''t need Bush or anyone else, I am a child of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Your hatred of Bush shows what lies in your heart.


Posted by StopSocialis at 10:34 PM : Oct 11, 2008

Never said I hated the man

It''s obvious you''re have a hard time dealing with all your contradictions

It''s a fact you supported the Bush Admin and all it''s failed policies

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. [Isaiah 5:20]


Now live with your actions and stop being a little creepy hypocrit

If you want that type of Government that prevents people from publicly expressing their faith in Christ outside of the home, then MOVE TO SAUDI ARABIA. They will GLADLY take you in with your humanist hate Christians attitude.

Posted by StopSocialis at 10:28 PM : Oct 11, 2008

You have that backward, my friend. In countries like Saudi Arabia, a very certain religion is forced upon its citizenry, much like what you seem to embrace. WE DO NOT LIVE IN A THEOCRACY! GET IT?!

I''ve said all along Bin Lauden has tears running down his cheeks (from laughter). Who is the real looser here? Just look at all the freedoms we have. All the freedom money can buy. But look at the freedoms we have lost. Thought the forefathers had enough smarts to say something about seperating Church (no matter what religion) and state. King George II and his holy war. What a new world order we are in. No republicans or democrats, only politicians that would pimp their mothers for a dollar, euro or yen.

What we need is a Christian nation - the only alternative is a pagan nation. By "Christian nation," I don''t mean that everyone is forced to be a Christian or forced to go to church or to believe in God. People are free to be Buddhists or atheists. The job of government is not to convert or force conversion to any kind of faith. The job of the government is to do for the people what they can''t do for themselves. And the job of bringing people to faith belongs to the private citizens, the churches, the synagogues and the religious leaders of our nation. That separation should always be kept. What I mean by a Christian nation is a nation whose laws are self-consciously built on the laws and principles of the Bible.

We have allowed organizations like the ACLU to strip away every vestige of our Christian heritage for long enough. We are tired of them destroying our country by declaring God unconstitutional. Our nation was founded on the principles laid out by the God of the Bible and we''re saying ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Where there is no foundation, there are no laws and what results is anarchy brought forth by moral relativism. Their way has failed. The time has come for us to take back that which once was and let the healing begin.


Freedom comes from the LORD, NOT the GOVERNMENT, and NOT MAN.

If we continue to throw the LORD out, things will CONTINUE to get worse.

2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

the highest point in the nation''''''''s capital is embedded a plaque which boldly proclaims in Latin, "Praise Be Unto God."

And your point is a perfect example

Hitler''''s Germany amalgamated state with church. Soldiers of the Vermacht wore belt buckles inscribed with the following: "Gott mit uns" (God is with us)

Hitler was a wicked, evil, deceiving man who used the term "God" to gain power. He WAS NOT a Christian. If Hitler was a Christian, than I guess George Washington and most of our founding fathers were just lik Hitler, according to your twisted logic, or should I say lack thereof.

Christ WARNED us about demented evil doers like Hitler. If you would trust in the LORD, and not Hitler''s words, you may learn something.

Restoring America:

The future of America will either be a national revival or it''s total destruction. We''re on the edge now of real national self-destruction. The past few generations of Americans have witnessed the collapse of moral and ethical values unlike any time in our history. We''re looking at the very strong probability of economic collapse, unless there is a tremendous change. We''re going to spend ourselves, tax ourselves into total oblivion.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. [2 Chronicles 7:14]

The essence of what God is requiring of the Christians in America is repentance. If we Christians think that simply by political involvement we''re going to turn the country around, we''re crazy. If we think that we can adopt an antagonistic triumphalism that says we''re going to get organized and throw all the bad guys out and take over, we will be brought face to face with our own sinfulness.

We must recover the original American vision and we must put into practice 2 Chronicles 7:14. Our First Continental Congress understood this concept as is evident in the words of John Jay.
