I know, Alas, and I am the worst offender today.
You are so right and I know you’re right. Don’t reply, don’t give them anything to feed on.
I will do better in the future .... (did I say that once before?)
I don’t support obama, but I also don’t support mitt. He is a liberal!!!!! Unless we have a conservative congress, it may be the end of the GOP.
I still miss The Far Side.
He was funniest on his dog cartoons.
For me it was farmers, cows and chickens. A riot!
Didn't fight back? Hell, he threw the election.
Better the GOP than the country...vote Mitt.
I probably will - the vote will be against o. I just want as conservative congress as possible. I am sick of the ‘elites’ thinking they know best.

Romney we have a shot at turing the economy around.

I hear ya!
True
Believing
Mormon
Well, I have nothing against Mormons. I wouldn’t be one, as I think they’re religiously and dogmatically wrong, but that’s between them and God.
Here’s my take on religion:
Are you a sinner? I am. Did I do anything to deserve it? Yes, I was born human. Can I fix it? No. Can it be fixed? Yes, but only God can. I therefore give it—my salvation—to God. I will not judge another man’s religious beliefs, knowing how hard the struggle has been and is for me.
Today we celebrated the Feast of the Ascension at mass. The priest told us that we are also supposed to takethe commission to heart, and that means living the Gospel and telling so many unchurched people that there is hope and salvation.
Coincidentally, there was a long article about Romney and how he lives his faith in the NYT today. I think it was supposed to scare people but I found him to be an admirable guy. I hope I can live MY faith as well as he does his.
As did we, except the older parishioners said it should have been on Thursday.
I don’t know what you’re talking about... do you?
Yes, our missal had it listed twice. Apparently the Bishops get to choose.
Excellant post. thank you for your succinct reasoned comment.
Wouldja just STOP?
Go back to posting your amazing pics of the war and various asteroids?
Now those were cool, you however are not.
Shaddup already!
Sorry for your loss.
Here’s my take on religion:
And HERE is the BIBLE's 'take' on false teaching:
Romans 15:4
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.Romans 16:17
I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.1 Corinthians 4:17
For this reason I am sending to you Timothy, my son whom I love, who is faithful in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which agrees with what I teach everywhere in every church.1 Corinthians 11:2
2. I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the teachings, just as I passed them on to you.Ephesians 4:14-15
14. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.
15. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.2 Thessalonians 2:15
So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.2 Thessalonians 3:6
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.1 Timothy 1:3-4
3. As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer
4. nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work--which is by faith.1 Timothy 1:7
They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.1 Timothy 2:7
And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.1 Timothy 4:1-2
1. The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
2. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.1 Timothy 4:6
If you point these things out to the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, brought up in the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.1 Timothy 4:11
Command and teach these things.1 Timothy 6:3-5
3. If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching,
4. he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions
5. and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.2 Timothy 1:13
What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus.2 Timothy 2:15-17
15. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
16. Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.
17. Their teaching will spread like gangrene.2 Timothy 3:16-17
16. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
17. so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.2 Timothy 4:3-4
3. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
4. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.Titus 1:11
They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach--and that for the sake of dishonest gain.Titus 2:1
You must teach what is in accord with sound doctrine.Titus 2:15
These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.Hebrews 13:9
Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings.2 Peter 2:1-3
1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.2 John 1:10
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him.
I will; for the bible plainly commands it.
I intend to MAKE it hard for MORMONs!
Hard to cling to their heresy and struggling to avoid those DOUBTS that are growing louder and LOUDER in their heads.
Then that should be quite easy to do.
Dang!
You give up quite easily!
Please be gentle, as you might hurt his feelings with statements such as this.
How sad it is to see this thread - a paragon of intellect, logic, and rational thought - being hijacked by thugs.
That's NOTHING!
Wait'll you get to read response #2!!!
Priceless!
Paragon and Thugs in same reply!
When “Meet the Press” has Rachel Maddow on, I like to drop them a note asking if they invited “her” because no one from Pravda was available.
DUMP ROMNEY and replace him with a stellar Dark Horse.
IF Romney is probably going to lose to Obama, THEN it is incumbent upon the RNC to intervene and declare an OPEN Convention, regardless of the Primary delegates that Romney has.
Continued accumulation of Primary delegates in the remaining State Primaries is the key to improving Paul’s chances of forcing the GOP-E to hold an OPEN Convention in Tampa.
Paul will then have completed his main task in this Primary: giving the delegates the freedom to DUMP ROMNEY!
My goal is to defeat the insanity of Keyensian Economics in “both” of our very sorry political parties THIS YEAR!
This can be accomplished by the Delegates choosing a stellar Dark Horse Nominee, such as R-Rep. Allen West of Florida, to slaughter Obama in a November Landslide.
It is not enough to beat Obama, he must be smashed in a huge landslide to repudiate his Marxist ideas for America!
Romney is not Warrior enough to do so.
The key is to FORCE the GOP-E to allow for an OPEN Convention in Tampa. Without an OPEN Convention the SOS of INSANE Federal Over-Spending will keep America on the same crowded track with Greece, and Kalifornia.
There are over 15, 000, 000, 000, 000 reasons why spending more money this year than was taken in during the previous year is an INSANE path to financial destruction.
Neither Obama or Romney have presented a plan to spend our Federal dollars in a non-insane manner.
For example, the GOP Elite have stood in line to endorse Romney, to endorse “The Ryan Budget,” and to compromise-away every opportunity to reduce Federal Spending.
I included the Ryan Budget, because Rep. Paul Ryan himself says that his “Budget” will balance in 30 YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, I added those exclamation points, because both you and I know that Ryan’s budget will NEVER balance, and thus will never be a fact. The exclamation points are just for volume emphasis.
______________________
The main point of my post is as follows: In order to DUMP ROMNEY there must be an OPEN, or “Bartered” Convention.
Ron Paul, Santorum and Newt are our best hopes to achieve an OPEN Convention because they have the most Delegates to force the Romney Delegates to approve of an OPEN Convention.
Since RP is the only active Candidate left standing, he has the best chance of forcing the RNC to have an OPEN Convention in Tampa.
With an OPEN Convention, NONE of the Primary Candidates stand a chance of becoming the Nominee, except Romney.
That possibility must be countered by a stellar Dark Horse, that is someone that has not run in this years Primary Campaign.
Otherwise Romney will follow the same stupid path as McCain and lose to Obama “much to the surprise of the GOP-E.”
Ron Paul, Santorum and Newt were rejected by Primary voters, and would be re-soundly rejected by the voters in the National Election. Thus, their main value is to force an OPEN Convention.
The Convention Delegates then would have a chance to choose a Nominee who could easily defeat Obama.
I had earlier supported R-Sc Sen. Jim DeMint, but he will not leave the Senate. Now I support R-Fla. Rep. Allen West. Rep. Allen West is a retired US Army Colonel, straight-talking Conservative, AND is the only non-welcome member of the Congressional Black Caucus, (the Libs hate him).
There are many other Republican non-RINO Dark Horses who would make excellent Dark Horse Nominees.
The DUMP ROMNEY Campaign requires an OPEN or “Bartered” Convention in Tampa.
Make your voice and vote count towards an OPEN Convention in Tampa, Florida!
BTW, Nominee Allen West WOULD be Florida’s favorite son in November - - - .
Sorry, Elsie.
That post was intended as one Masshole to another, Dio did saw awesome stuff at the beginning of the war and I have always admired his talent.
