Thankfully we are still sort of governed by the Constitution. <BR/><BR/>I agree totally with you, Kurt. We need to fight the fear - and make our decisions based on love, not fear.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14545146592743875490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381314.post-39614122839924806452008-12-07T13:47:00.000-06:002008-12-07T13:47:00.000-06:00Kurt,Yes.

You represent what is "wrong" with our country....our slide into moral decay and decadence. And, when God sends his wrath on you, it's going to hit me as well. <BR/>And so, I must be diligent to make my voice heard and decry the evil that is your life, otherwise, I'm on the wrong side of the good vs. evil equation. And, even if I eventually get annihilated because of you, well, at least I'll go to heaven because I was on the right side.<BR/><BR/>This culture war is also a great distraction for me because I can get out and "DO" things to fight you. Like with voting and standing up for my opinions(God) and stating plainly over and over again that homosexuality is sin. This gives me something to do other than being about other things that might actually have some real effect in the Kingdom of God. (ok, that last sentence was my real voice)<BR/><BR/>Good post.<BR/>love ya, brother!<BR/>pamgracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16353719852472577554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381314.post-13828658150454256852008-12-07T07:39:00.000-06:002008-12-07T07:39:00.000-06:00Agreed.Agreed.Bonjour Matey!https://www.blogger.com/profile/00678772101053726405noreply@blogger.com
