Well... it's not worth a response, even with a 6-pack... :-/
You honestly believe that the governmant controls what CNN, MSNBC, FOX,
etc. put into there news casts?
This country was founded by Christians.
Founded? Stolen, more like. Yo, dude... head up north -- I'm guessing
about 350 miles -- and meet some of the folks that this country was
stolen *from*.
The Canadians??? I've heard people say that we stole it from the
Indians, but never the Canadians.
And yes, I am of both German and "American Indian/Aboriginal
North-American/folks that were here 40Kyears before the rest of y'all"
[[ however you wanna put it...]] so I've learned to walk a mile in
someone else's moccasins...
Yes, we were not fair with the Indians, beaking treaties and so on, but
just because a person is born in the USA, doesn't make him a Christian.
A person can even go to church and not really be a Christain. Your
lumping a lot of people into "Christain", that you shouldn't be, just
becasue they may hold some Christian values, and don't profess to be
something else, like Muslim, Hindu, or Whatever.
You mean, citing war on others despite (or because of)
the #1
commandment of most [all?] Christian faiths: "Thou shalt not kill."
Despite 2000 years of trying, Christianity (in all it's flavors) is
still not the dominant faith of this planet... Any chance there's a
reason for that
So much for the witch trials... back to the Crusades!!!
The Crusades were filled with people looking for self gain. They may
have done what they did in the name of the Lord, but it was still for
self gain, from what I have read. I do recall hearing that the first
one was somewhat legit, but it's been a long time since I've studied that.
[1] Erm, yea... Born and raised... but at least I know
that "North of
the Mackinac[2] Bridge" ain't Canada... Honestly, I'm not saying that
you think that, but I met *many* folks born & raised in the lower half
of Michigan that didn't know better, and tried telling me such... :-/
Maybe they were new here? I never really liked Pastys
