All well said my friend. Let me ask you this. What can we do as individual citizens to help move the conversation forward? I obviously haven't read every link you've provide so maybe it's in there but I'd like your opinion on how we can move from simply highlighting the issues on a forum to...

The downside to your excellent posts, is you often say all that needs to be said. Bravo! I obviously don't disagree one bit. You touched on the war on drugs and I certainly think that needs to end and we need to free all non-violent drug felons and restore their full rights immediately...

Followers of Christ will have their works, in love, rewarded or cast away. Not their sins judged. Our sins are forgiven. It is the love, compassion, mercy and kindness that we give to others from the heart, via the Spirit which is love. Many have only found religion but they have found God...

I just felt it was unnecessary. You raised your flag in my face like it means something to me and i responded in emotion. Truth is, I really don't care either way. Its a free forum and i decided the post was offensive and irrelevant. I actually did it for you.

I'm sure you are a "Christian". Sadly in America, that's often the problem. Religion doesn't save, nor does it equal "Christ-like". You're relationship with your god is your issue. You call him whatever you like and believe whatever you like. Thats your right as an American.

I'm not saying ignore it, what I'm saying is it's irrelevant to the current situation. Meaning that tax reform will take time. There's no quick, fast and simple way to accomplish this. However, tax cuts on the first $250k is required immediately as it is an economic issue and could determine...

Nevermind.

Keep telling yourself that.

I am a follower of Christ. My sins were forgiven before I was even born. Yes, I'm sure you don't.

No, that is the work of your King. No quotes.

That's true but I still am under the impression that they don't want to deal with this issue because they prefer brown and black people to be in prison. Their contempt towards minorities is abundantly clear in the talks over debt. They HATE minorities. All the blame on Romney losing is...

If she believes and has faith in Jesus that He will save her, it is sufficient. She will not be judged for her sins any more than you will. She will create a hell on earth for herself and those around her, instead of living in the peace and joy of life that God intended, but that's her...

Yeah think about that. A person is demonized for being loving, compassionate and merciful. What a terrible human being he is. :doh:

It's about helping innocent people. Men, women and children. Their lives may not mean much to you but they do to me and they certainly do to God.

That's true and we do have to prepare for such a reality but I am reminded that Obama is not Bush. He's a level headed thinker and a good commander in chief. I believe they will come with a strategy that includes many nations getting some skin in the game and in a way that doesn't have us...

Good point on the prison system and certainly a discussion that deserves it's own thread. Ending the war on drugs and legalizing it, would change ALOT in the prison system and would free MANY people who do not belong there. I hope tax reform does happen although it's not an issue for...

More accurate is if you say, when Democrats win national elections with obvious tax and economic mandates, there is no reason to compromise. The failure to compromise was resolved by the voters. Now it's forward on the agenda the winner, Obama, ran on. Not sure why that truth is still failing...

The rich are richer today than they ever were under Clinton. The logic in this post makes very little sense to me. You can't expect to spend what we were spending 20 years ago when costs on EVERYTHING are significantly higher. Now, if the wealthy were actually less wealthy now than then, this...

:thumbsup: Republicans are mad because finally the majority of America have realized the GOP has declared war on us for decades. Now that we're fighting back, they have a sad. :sorry: And all this over 4% tax cut that was TEMPORARY from it's passing. It's really quite sad but the push back...
