""abnormal, a horrible cancerous tumor in the body of society."

Doesn't that accurately describe Ted Kennedy?

Yes, the world is getting better. What Sweeden, which has an official state church, does, is their own affair. It certainly is not catastrophic.

Oh, and if it shuts people like you up it has to be a GOOD thing.

You and I have polar opposite views of the world. Your idea of Christianity is an anathema to me. Please, don't write me again.

The spread of the Gospel (and it is rapid)in China, Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam is occurring in spite of intense persecution. Here in Thailand there is no Government persecution and there are less then 900,000 Christians in the whole Country

The growth of Christianity in no way supports the notion of religious freedom, though. I think the data would show quite the opposite, in fact, that a church under duress becomes a stronger church. (By "church," I refer not to a denomination but the body of Christ.)

So while more people than ever may be coming to Christ, Christianity is still under attack like never before.

Don't think that it is beyond reality that we could be heading for a "One World Government" If the U.S looses it's power the freedoms of everyone is in grave jeopardy.

One religion for the world one government, what we could not imagine happening 20 yrs ago Modernman,

"Implant chips in humans, tracking people through satellite systems, a secularized Europe the growth of Anti-Semitism through-out Europe the Euro currency, The expansion of the Homosexual Agenda, Global Terrorism"

Were not living in Mayberry were headed in face of 'Destruction"

Did you ever think as a child you would see a day like this come....What's next? are we really climbing higher in GOD's commandment of morality?

Actually, I had a very remarkable 6th grade teacher at a Catholic grade school. He spoke about just these kinds of things, like renewed persecution of Christians and the fall of communism in the old USSR in our lifetimes. They seemed impossible at the time and he told us we would think they would be impossible, but he was right on a lot of these things. And, yes, a lot of people including a few of the other teachers thought he was a bit of a kook. I wonder if they think about him and these things now.

It seems like we are gleefully spiraling downward, not climbing upward in morality, unless one buys into 'the new morality'. It's like that quote from Alice in Wonderland quoted on FR a lot - 'We're through the looking glass ..."

No, not really. Slovakia just handed its sovereignty over to the collection of leftist Eurocrats in Brussels. The EU hate speech law is similar.

I do not believe any screwup occurred in WACO, "as far as God is concerned". The reason I say that is that if David Koresh had lived through Waco, there would have been such a lawsuit with him the winner....all based on free speech and freedom of religion. Our courts were spared that atrocity and a bandwagon on which the "left" could have jumped just to hurt the conservatives and the christians.

Yes, the FBI was accused of screwing this one up, but better a screwup and Koresh gone than his surviving it to make a mockery of courts. Remember this man was a child molester. God judged him in his own way, and he used our government agency to do it.

After dozens of prostletyzing posts in another thread and repeatedly writing me over and over again after I said I wasn't inetrested, no, I can't "not be rude to Missy". I want her to get it through her incredibly thick head that I want her to leave me alone.

I am Jewish, strong in my own faith, and I find people who incessantly try to convert me or prove to me that they are right in their views (based entirely in fundamentalist Christianity) highly offensive. I tried being nice over and over again and she refused to respect my beliefs.

Thanks for the post.

I have always found that women had a special place for homosexual men. Now women have a special place for each other also.


Government of Sweden

The Swedish Government has 10 girlie-men and 11 females as Ministers.

_____________________

Sweden & Swedes

Not all men should be equal

Did you know that:

After the 2002 election, 45 percent of Members of Parliament are women, which is a world record.

Of course, efforts to promote equality also embrace other categories of people besides women.

Sweden has very far-reaching legislation and practices aimed at banning discrimination and unfavorable special treatment of people due to their ethnic background, physical or mental disabilities or sexual orientation.

We also have laws aimed at ensuring the rights of children not only in society, but also in relation to their parents.

For example, Sweden triggered international controversy in the 1970s when it became the first country in the world to forbid parents from spanking their children.

_____________________

I submit that this is the kind of policies you have with a dominant female influence along with passive girlie-men in Government.

What do you think Cyborg? Does Sweden have it right?

I agree with your point about the direction towards one-world government, and the need of that government to establish a one-world religion as part of the deal. I also agree that we should do everything in our power to oppose this agenda, and those who support its evil goals.

It is nevertheless important to realize, even in the face of all this, that the Lord is far mightier than these people, that He has ways of accomplishing his will which are unseen to us, and that He will prevail in the end. It is written. You can take it to the bank.

If your going to talk about me on FR then address me.
You were never nice to me and I never insulted you yes I had discussions with you about our religious differences many do on FR.

I have spoke over and over to many of the long standing Jewish freepers sure they know sometimes I get carried away on my views of Jewish/Christian differences but they also know I have a good heart and kind intentions twoards them, you have no clue how to read people that is why you look at me as the Spawn of Satan.

You are so close minded about me that when I pinged you about this article you decided in your brain that is was about attacking your faith rather than the serious issue of human rights being violated in the world and immorality taking over.

I mis-read the kind of person you are....Have a great life.
