This is the type of tyrannical insanity that the obama admin gets away with. In their universe, there are no fixed rights, particularly for the rapidly diminishing Christian majority. From the transcript, it seems evident that this lawyer for DOJ was forced to defend a policy even he knew was indefensible.
The apostle Paul called himself the chief among sinners. That is the attitude we should all have as we engage in heated talk. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Build each other up in Christ brother and sister.
It is true that some africans profited from man stealing also. A capital crime. However that does not excuse the europeans who drove the demand for it. And yes most Southernets were not plantation owners and many were against slavery. And yes many slaves were treated as members of the owner's family. And yes, the North was hardly an example of equality or compassion. Yet none of these justify slavery and we need to discuss Biblically so that it will never ever happen again.
This man is not the father of american slavery. That distinction would belong to british sugar caners or northern traders who doubled or tripled their money with every man stealing trip.
Huntsman says the marketplace of ideas will render us irrelevant if we do not change. Talk about somebody who fails to stand on principle. He forgets who determines the market ultimately. Yes..jon. God' Market will render you irrelevant.
Rangel unwittingly makes the point of his opponents...people know intuitively that women don't belong on the front lines. Rangel trying to use this now to avoid all wars.
The article omits any discussion of the German law banning homeschooling. What forward thinkng, progressive, defender of human rights pushed the ban into law in 1938? Hitler. Holder and Hitler. What a team.
And I thought that families that were hard-working in which parents took extraordinary risks to escape persecution and came to these shores to raise their children in the fear of the Lord were the kind of immigrant families we wanted. Silly me...must have been reading some antiquated textbook about the pilgrims.
One important things to keep in my mind when you hear the word cuts in dc. None of them are talking about cuts; they are only speaking of reducing the increase in spending. That is not a cut. Even if the automatic decreases kick in, your government will still be spending more. I have never understood why candidates..particularly presidential (with exception of paul) cannot and do not hit on basic math. Obama is able to portray repubs as being against social security and medicare even though they are only ones trying to save them.
Oh what has happened to dear Scotlandof old. I walked many years ago in the highlands of Knox and the Covenanters and mourn for the light that once shone from your shores. May God grant it return soon.
The aim of the gay lobby is clear. They say to themselves: " We can't have a family so let's destroy the family. We can't have marriage so let us destroy marriage. We cannot be mothers and fathers so let's destroy those units of reference also." They can never have any of these because they are created, defned and ordained by the God they hate. Since they cannot have it, they simply want to get rid of these basic blocks of society altogether.
Chris, no disagreement. You are arguing politics and you should. The people who are ignorant in politics are those who argue from shifting sand. Only Christians have a fixed anchor and can engage others substantively in all spheres of life, including politics.
This is absurd and violates iv's right of association. Ok, u of m let's be consistent now. Force the muslims to let the jews lead them. Force Greenpeace to let the antienvironmentalists lead. How about excluding the four foot tall female gymnasts from the football team? And why should only faculty teach students?Pure age discrimmination..give the students tenure.
Christopher: Whose God and what morality is pledged to? It's not about feeling comfotable dressing. If they had locked individual stalls, would that make everything fine. It's about having and teaching a foundation to these so-called scout morals. The old scout handbooks used to do it. Now they have been scrubbed clean and we are seeing some of the rotten fruit.
Bro James, I have an even better idea. Let's stop supporting a group who clearly has no fear of the Lord and instead start a Keepers of the Faith group, ie a Christian boy scouts built on God's Word. Then they will have fun in the outdoors bur more importanty be nurtured on God's word.
Bob Jim: It is hard to believe that such a well-informed reader as you would find it hard to believe that a visit to the holocaust museum could spur prolifers to action. Aren't we glad that are families who engage in the actual battle.
Read former Marine, Ryan Smith's opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal today and ask yourself if the front lines are where our daughters are meant to be.
I will never ever allow my daughters to be drafted into military service by this Godless government or any other. I will go to prison, move to another country, whatever. Where are the men with a backbone to stand up for their families?
Obama said it is not our religion that unites us as Americans, rather it is the notion that we are all created equal. I wonder which religion that idea comes from. Hinduism?
What illogical and dark deception. Because we are created equal, all of our affections are equally valid? How does obama get away with this kind of stuff?
