rvastar @24: Based on what I have seen from Mr. Steele thus far, I don’t think he has that in mind (and I liked him!). I know he’s intelligent, but I don’t beleive he has the savvy or instinct to be so scheming. He has been a dissapointment, and he’ll need to show more leadership and convey conservative ideals if he wants my money. I stopped giving after I heard him agree with Hughley. I stopped listening after he endorsed Scozzafava.
John Samford @31; At what point do we get to tell the leadership they’re on the wrong track? When do we get to disagree? Should we just keep on giving to those who not only aren’t representing us but complicit in the destruction of our Republic?
Kevin Butterfield @ 37; Are you serious? I’m all for freedom of worship and speech, but leave it out of the party. It’ll cost us more than we can gain. I’m about as secular as ya’ get, but yet I’m adamantly pro-life. I don’t worship at the altar of self, and I’m no tree-hugger, but I don’t think anybody has the right to pollute my kids air or my neighbor’s water.
“The intrinsic goal of all society is to do away w/ money”, but not everyone would be equal? Sounds like Socialism/Communism with the dear leaders getting special priviledge.
“We all know the Bible is true…”? Whoa! “Science does not contradict this.” Huh?!?! I know that the Bible (religion in general)WAS science for the better part (I mean the majority) of human history. Religion has been very important in the development of many societies and cultures, and I’d much rather live here than in a totally secularlized society that Europe aspires to acheive. However, religion also has the power to corrupt and, well, brainwash. Frankly, you sound no different than the Moonies or Davidians, (alright, maybe not that bad), but it clearly interferes with rational, objective thought. Science, modern science, has blown away the idea that the earth is only, what do you folks say, @ 10,000 yrs.? The Darwin Evolutionary Theory is based on obeservable behavior and traits. Modern genetics has nailed down the theory. There is no “Blind Faith” that prohibits free thought, either explicitly like islam, or, I guess implicitly like Christianity. You’re basing your opinion (blind faith) on an idea and story that took over four hundred years to be written down ie: the New Testament. How many times have you heard a story told, just days after witnessing the event yourself, only to hear a somewhat different version or perspective being told? You really think the Bible is spot-on?
I generally behave like the Roman Catholic I was raised to be when dealing with other folks. I don’t lie, cheat or steal and have only killed when neccesary, attemtpting a do-unto-others approach. I have a clean conscience, but lose sleep over the direction of our Country. I beleive in the lessons of history and I’m most assuredly NOT a liberal.
You’re right, you and yours will largely be ignored, all is going to go to hell when the economy collapses. islam will make it’s move, as they have all throughout history, and the differnt race factions and socialist ideologues will attempt to instill their tyranny on what’s left of society, and Jesus ain’t comin’. But I’ll stand with you if you do more than just kneel and pray!
