Ron Paul's Statement of Faith (says he's "accepted Jesus Christ")
Pundit House ^ | July 13, 2011 | Ron Paul

Posted on 11/06/2011 6:40:00 PM PST by Kurt Evans

My faith is a deeply private issue to me, and I don't speak on it in great detail during my speeches because I want to avoid any appearance of exploiting it for political gain. Let me be very clear here: I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, and I endeavor every day to follow Him in all I do and in every position I advocate...

America became the greatest nation in human history because a dedicated band of Patriots believed their God-given rights were worth fighting for, even if it meant challenging the world's most powerful nation in what many deemed a "hopeless" cause...

Since I'm asking for your vote and your trust to lead this nation, let me tell you a little bit about my background and beliefs.

My parents raised my four brothers and me on a dairy near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where they set clear examples for each of us about faith, honest living, and individual responsibility. Their Christian values helped inspire two of my brothers to eventually enter the ministry, and provided me with the foundation I needed to practice medicine and one day become a U.S. Representative.

In addition to my time in Congress, I am proud to have delivered over 4,000 babies as a country doctor in Texas. As I trained to practice medicine, I became convinced without a doubt that life begins at the moment of conception. I never performed an abortion, and I never once found an abortion necessary to save the life of the mother. In fact, I successfully helped women struggling with their pregnancies to seek other options, including adoption...

We must stand for life—not allow millions of innocent children to continue to be slaughtered with the government's approval.

We must follow the Biblical mandate of using honest weights and measures—not printing money out of thin air in almost complete secrecy and then handing it over to oppressive dictators.

We must only send our men and women to fight for our country when the mission is clear, every tool needed to win is provided, and we respect the Constitution by declaring war...

As President, I give you my word that I will only exercise my authority within the confines of the Constitution, and I will work every day to rein in a runaway federal government by binding it with the chains of that document.

“Now Let me guess; You hate ron paul”

“Hate” is a rather strong word, but judging by the polls, 92% of the Republican Party has the same view of Dr. Demento as I do: unimpressed.

“Thats why Im here and Ive been attacked personally the entire time. Im here - To speak on Paul and the issues surrounding his proclaimed conversion...”

This is a Conservative site. RuPaul is not a Conservative.

You seem like an intelligent young man, I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out the rest.

FROM CS MONITOR:

Ron Paul wins yet another straw poll. So why are the media ignoring him?
Ron Paul won a straw poll in Illinois Saturday, the latest in a string of such wins for the GOP presidential hopeful. Supporters say the mainstream media are ignoring him, but such polls are not scientific and they can favor an enthusiastic following like Paul’s.

LOL - I'm not trying to pass any kind of muster with the likes of you.

I have loftier pursuits at the moment.

Like getting the oil in my car changed.

You mean the same Republican Party about to give us Mitt Romney as its nominee for President in '12? Great judges of character, that lot.

fine I’l tell you a joke...

When Rich perry is elected president... (pause)

That’t the whole joke. (Pause)

No, seriously, when Rick Perry is elected president he has decided to eliminate the department of memory.

What line?

You poor little Paultards. Strange lot you are, but you do make us laugh. You're so deliciously lockstep. For example, I love it when you swarm and spam straw polls and then act like it means something.

By the way, putting a smiley face after a juvenile insult is not humor.

Here...this is humor, straight off of You Tube.

Conversation With a Ron Paul Supporter.

I love all the cute little epithets you have for people who support Ron Paul. It's so like were just so totally choosing like our favorite baseball team and like oh my GOD anyone who doesn't support like our baseball team is just so BOGUS and icky and like OH MY GOD let's like totally not talk to them at all at study hall and maybe we'll even write RON PAUL IS STINKY on the chalkboard before class. Wouldn't that be awesome?

It's like totally so like politics aren't important or anything; let's just all grab some pom poms and go down to the soda fountain and listen to Ricky Nelson songs on the juke box. Be true to your school. Just like you would to your girl, guy.

Dear sweet Jesus, you want to know why politics is such a disaster in this country? Look in the f*cking mirror, sister. Live up to the "!!!!!LOOKIT ME!!!!!" pictures you post of yourself on your d*mn homepage.

I'm supporting anyone who is not Romney, Paul or Huntsman in the primaries for now.

Those three exceptions are liberals, but any of the others would be a vast improvement over Obama.

I don't get all worshippy over one candidate like a lot of people do. I can't stand to even watch those who go deep into the tank for one candidate.

It makes them act like ankle-nipping tiny hyenas and they don't even see it.

Strong emotional investment in another human being you don't even know is an unhealthy endeavor, IMO.

Look at the Our Sarah worship group - some of those poor souls are still in denial after she announced she wasn't running.

I just roasted you, neocon.

LOL - you really are delusional.

Oh, and we all know "neocon" means "anyone who doesn't worship Ron Paul" to you folks.

I didn't think I kicked your butt that badly (I wasn't even trying), but judging by your response, I must have really seared the sucker.

This is getting too easy...BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Why are you talking like a valley girl?

Noticed you left Rick Perry on the list. Awesome! Al Gore's Texas campaign chair in '88 and a dude who supports in-state tuition for illegal immigrants (i.e., Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick's stance). I'm glad to see you support a real "rock-ribbed" conservative there.

Perhaps you'd like the site owner's better?

"As far as our official policy on Ron Paul is concerned, it's the same policy we have for his antiwar moonbat allies the traitors Harry Reid, Chuckie Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Jack Murtha, Cindy Sheehan, Barbara Streisand, Jane Fonda, CodePink, International Answer, et al and their flaming antiwar spam monkeys. Ron Paul and his flaming antiwar spam monkeys can Kiss my Ass!!

Where the hell did you guys ever get the idea that enemy supporting antiwar moonbats would be welcome on FR?"

-Jim Robinson, September 30, 2007

Read it and weep, darlin'.
