Yes, it is - it is a reference to potty language.

With the exception of my self and my ole lady, I would trust my 3 kids with a Christian family before I’d trust them to any homosexual.


With all due respect,

Reread what you wrote and think about it.

No God no peace. Know God know peace.

Great post.

Let me throw out a different thought. As we see the end of a Christian western european civilization and the rise of the tyranny of Godless men we are also seeing the growth of Evangelical Christianity in Africa, South America, Central America and Asia.

So while we see our civilization crumbling it may not mean the Tribulation is imminent.

A God-hating country will get the judgment it deserves. The “America” I’m living in now seems to have no connection to the country I grew up in.

It's heart breaking to see this "sinking into Gomorrah" (to borrow a phrase).

I don't see this turning around. What I've noticed is the millennials are more infantile than the baby boomers. They do not embrace a rugged individualism, or sense of personal responsibility, that is critical for a free society to prosper. You can't blame them though, the baby boomers weren't much better.

True. We may see the underground churches of China, North Korean, or Africa sending missionary’s to Sweden, Norway, US,....

The most oppressed people seem to have the greatest faith. They have to rely completely on God. We have so much and it’s easy to take it for granted.

Okay, so the acronym referencing certain substances hitting fans was over the line. Strict but legit. Got it.

“but sometimes when I watch the Simpsons and Ned is cast, I get the feeling that the show’s producers are making jokes at Ned’s expense.”

You get the feeling? They are making jokes at Ned’s expense!

“It is almost as they set up Ned where he and other Evangelical Christians are made fun of through satire.”

This is the “Simpsons” not “Touched by an Angel” Ned is satire.

Who would hold a favorable or unfavorable view of a group of people? Are all homosexuals exactly alike? Are all evangelicals? Stupid poll or stupid people, one of the other.

Once a person gets burned by more than one or many in a certain group I could see holding an unfavorable opinion of all of them.

I suppose the statement is misleading or at the very least vague. My spouse is very active at her Catholic church with the kids and is confirmed and receives communion. Before our vows I agreed to raise any children Catholic, all 3 have been baptized. 2 go to RE (Religious Education) once a week, the youngest is only 18 months. I am a Jew and was never really religious. I am willing to bet we have more in common than you think. Unlike a vast majority of homosexuals, I do not view the world through the prism of being a lesbian. It does not rule every aspect of my life, in fact it matters very little. My worldview extends way beyond my genitals and my bed.

I guess the point I was making is that the poll is obviously a load of crap and I challenge anyone that answered that poll in favor of homosexuals over Christians to be given the choice if there was no other option to leave their male child in the hands of homosexuals or Christians and see who they would pick. Its a poll driven at the very least by political correctness.

That’s been the propaganda goal of the Liberal elite for the past 50 years.

It's ok. With the world in the shape it's in and the amazing prophecies being fulfilled, it's a good time to open the Torah/Old Testament/New Testament and see how God gave us heads up on what to expect in the last days. It will give you chills. Ask and God will give you wisdom to understand it.

The homosexual war on Christianity is through the schools and the media. They will not stop until all of our freedoms are gone. SAD!

Democrat voters and those who support the party are going to hell.
There are no excuses for supporting evil, no plausible deniability
for allowing
vicious support for the killing of babies and their rabid support of homosexuality.

The Dem party is crystal clear on those issues. And those who support it
will burn in hell for eternity.

Admittedly, I have not seen the Simpsons in quite some time, but I remember Ned being a positive influence on the show and was able to get Christian views expressed. And of course, there were times where Ned was the butt of a joke or made into a satirical character.

By contrast, homosexuals don’t go around preaching about icky things like God, the Bible and sexual restraint.

You're right - their preaching is about other icky things.

Excellent point. The US was such an exception in so many ways for so long people got to thinking it was the norm.
