For one I don't think of God as a man, especially in the sky. Some may, but I personally don't see God as a man in the sky. To me God is a distant enigma at best; in that respect I am much closer to some of the deist Founders then mainline religions.

I only comment on other people's comments, ideas, or claims about God. That's not being anti-God. I only debate religious arguments, never beliefs. If you say "I believer the Bible is the word of God" there is nothing to debate. But is you insist it is a fact, then I will ask questions.

I do not believe that conservatives should use ridicule amongst ourselves, especially in regards to Faith, because that IS the method used by libs

I agree, but the Conservatives are sometimes short tempered and attack fellow Conservatives who don't necessarily see things their way. Calling another Conservative a "liberal" is like spitting in his face. Telling them they don't belling here is just adding salt to the wound. One thing leads to another. It's not all one way.

It is not smart to alienate fellow Conservatives by ridiculing their Faith in their Creator, that grants us the Rights and Liberty we all love. You and the others are in my prayers

Agreed. Thank you. I am all for civil discussions. But please acknowledge that other people may have different opinions about your opinions and beliefs. That's what Liberty is all about.

NO ONE holds the Founding Fathers to be divine.However, the documents these brilliant men created leaves all poitical treatises, before and since, in the dust. If you did not vote for B.O. Punk for President, I read more hostility into your words than what existed. Bob

Liberals often hold mutually exclusive beliefs. Clarence Thomas MAY have told a joke about a pubic hair on a soda can, and he is a lecher, yet, Clinton has been serially charged with rape and assorted affairs and abuses of women, yet HE is a champion of women’s rights. Bob

Homeless snakes do not have a pit to hiss in.

Satan created the ‘idea’ of evolution to give foolish humans something to believe in other than God.

Seems that if evolution is driven by mutations and selection of the fittest for survival, we would all have devolved to single cell miroorganisms that can reproduce rapidly. What advantage does a human have over simple bacteria when it comes to survival?
