Okay, you don't care about "stacking the deck" against Obama. I hear you loud and clear: you don't care about the truth. It's more important to you to stick it to someone you don't like than to be fair to him. Wonderful testimony, Brian. Awesome light from the city set on a hill. Now, don't be surprised when the rest of us call it hypocrisy.


Tim you know as well as I that for many people no matter if my witness is as pure as the driven snow they will still turn up there noses and cast my words aside like yesterdays news! And you should also know by now that my seeming hypocrisy is mostly just me blowing off steam because of how people defend the undefendable. And as far as caring about the truth.....what truth is Obama standing for? What truth is there in a man who does almost everything in his power to deprive the life of the unborn and continue the genoside that has become todays liberal left wing policies? But hey, there progessive. There open minded. There tolerant. Whatever!!

Tim I'm just tired. I'm tired of playing patty cake with the people who are helping bring about the destruction of morality in America and are calling it good!!!

And I'm probably just having a bad day. LOL :)


I fully understand! But I also understand TIM, because I see a huge amount of hypocrisy now (not you Brian) but it is out there terribly.... BTW it is not helping at all and makes many Christians Look really bad. Some Christians say the worst and most hypocritical things about Obama, things I would never say to anyone, even my worse enemy, all the while acting as if they are defending God... THAT bothers me as well.

NOW I am talking about what I am hearing on the radio, News, people around me etc.

Brian, I remember your writing from years ago. Your writing skills have really improved. I read something of yours a month or so ago and was struck by how well it was written. It's like you have turned a corner and become a craftsman. That's awesome!

I don't think that our personal integrity, our love for fairness, or our quest for justice should have anything to do with what other people do.

I don't support abortion, either, but that doesn't mean that I am going to judge economic policy, foreign policy, or every domestic policy by it. Just because I despise abortion does not mean that I am going to frame Obama as having a plot to take over the world or set himself up to be the Messiah or stamp out Christianity as a Muslim in disguise or take over all industry to turn America Marxist. Come on, get real!

You're allowed. I like you. See how unfair I am to those I like?

Thank you Tim, seriously you are too kind!! but I like it :) I have indeed stepped up my game(said in the most humble voice I can), but I still can't spell worth a hoot. lol

And your right, our behaviour shouldn't be dictated my the actions of another. The only people we can control is ourselves.

I like you too Tim, alot! I actually look for your posts and hope you get a chance to catch some of mine. I know you probably don't want or need me to say this but I am truly sad, it makes my heart literally weep to see that you have come to some of the conclusions you have in matters of faith. You already know this, but you could be a driving force for the advancement of the Kingdom of God to higher educated people that I wouldn't be able to relate to on my best day!

Again, thanks for the kind words my friend.....but i'd still like to smack a liberal today!! :) :P
