I was just on live with Alan Colmes. Alabama AG Pryor was on and then Justice Moore (i.e. at separate times). I didn't get to hear AG Pryor, but I did get to hear Justice Moore.

Unfortunately, I just barely missed getting to talk with Justice Moore, but I did get on with Alan and was able to give my interpretation of the Ten Commandments on the air, as expressed in the above URL. I would have loved to have gotten Justice Moore's response.

Way cool, congratulations!

Sorry, I missed it too. I there another showing of the same show tonight?

Congratulations.

[Concerned]

Thanks! I REALLY wish I could have gotten Justice Moore's response to my observations about the Ten Commandments issue. It would be interesting to find out if Justice Moore listened to anything on the show after he got off. I would love to hear him utilize my observations in his future statements.

BTW, I got to see and meet Sean Hannity (and hug!!!) on one of his stops on his Hannitization-of-America Tour a few weeks ago. That was REALLY exciting!

Thanks! I have no idea if it is repeated. You might be able to hear it archived on http://www.klif.com (who he is going through tonight) but I don't know. It was just a few minutes after the show started back on the air after the 11:00 P.M. CST break (I typed and posted my FR comment by 11:30 P.M. CST).

Alan didn't seem to comprehend my argument....of course, he IS a liberal RAT (but at least a pretty polite liberal RAT).

As far as the Ten Commandments are concerned, for the purpose of determining whether they establish a religion, it doesn't matter whether you believe in EXACTLY ONE God, EXACTLY THREE gods, EXACTLY a MILLION gods or EXACTLY NO god---however many gods you believe in, he/she/they would CERTAINLY NOT want ANY OTHER beings claiming to be ANOTHER god.

And if YOU believe that YOUR god is a COW, and you have pictures and statues of COWS everywhere, and you worship COWS at every opportunity, to YOU, those pictures and statues are NOT GRAVEN IMAGES---they are YOUR god.

And if YOU believe that there are NO gods (except YOU of course), and you have photos and statues of yourself everywhere, those photos and statues are NOT GRAVEN IMAGES to YOU---they are YOUR god---YOU!

So it doesn't really matter WHO YOUR God/god/gods is/are in relation to the LITERAL statements of the Ten Commandments. The Ten Commandments, if taken LITERALLY, do NOT contradict even an atheist's beliefs.

The PROBLEM is that most people AUTOMATICALLY think of the Ten Commandments as Christian Doctrine, when they were actually Jewish Doctrine, which Christians adopted as they became heirs to God's promises.

Yes.

Way to go, Concerned! I'm afraid I missed it, too, but "Hannity & Colmes" is repeated at 2am ET on Fox News.

[nutmeg]

FoxFan ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my FoxFan list. *Warning: This can be a high-volume ping list at times.

The larger Left and individual Leftists serve to distract. They strive to distract. I think they intend to so cover us with issues ( & the minutia of them ) that we may never again get up to fight them where it matters.

I avoid even reading or listening to them. But I am glad you are pleased with your effort. No doubt many thousands have gained from hearing you.

The Left definitely want to distract---and they are VERY good at it. I usually do not listen to Alan Colmes' program, but I just happened to be driving home for a few minutes, late tonight and heard Justice Moore on the program. I had to wait to hear the call in number, but by that time, it was barely too late to get on (probably only missed it by 1 or 2 callers).

I do hope that my comments stirred some thought---and acceptance---on the part of the part of the anti-Justice-Moore, anti-Ten-Commandment crowd. If taken from a LITERAL perspective, instead of a Judeo-Christian/Religious perspective, I have not found ANYONE whose beliefs are contradicted by the Ten Commandments, even though they may not be Jewish or Christian.

[GatekeeperBookman]

Good man! I applaud you!

[buffyt]

I think the democrats don't like the Ten Commandments because Bill Clinton can't follow them, and that makes him look bad, reflects badly on their party, since they all LOVE Clinton.

Thanks! It was Alan Colmes' radio program.

Oops, I'm sorry... thanks for the correction. Proves that I was up FReeping WAY past my bedtime again last night! :-)

[Ferret Fawcet]

Good job! I didn't hear you on the show but I really enjoyed reading your comments- you give a perspective I haven't heard before.
