"Without morals a republic cannot subsist any length of time...They therefore who are decrying the Christian religion, whose morality is so sublime and pure and which insures to the good eternal happiness, are undermining the solid foundation of morals, the best security for the duration of free governments."-- Charles Carroll, U.S. Senator and signer of the Declaration of Independence
I’d have to say the one who’s willing to accept bestiality in exchange for financial gain is the sicko.
"Peace, prosperity, liberty and morals have an intimate connection."-- Thomas Jefferson, to George Logan, 1813
"Political interest [can] never be separated in the long run from moral right."-- Thomas Jefferson
When will the Paulistinians and, for that matter, the Tea Party realize that social issues ARE NOT seperate from fiscal ones???
Good God I could go nuts over this. People MUST realize that one cannot be social moderate or liberal but fiscally conservative. It simply cannot be done & I believe this is the reason the Tea Party has been losing steam. They refuse to embrace social issues.
God will not allow us to solve our financial woes until we stop with the moral rot.
I see by the quotes you posted that you & I are in agreement. Thank you.
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other."-- John Adams
Oh I don't think he hates Washington/Government that much.
He either has an abysmal understanding of fiscal policy as evidenced by his pushing a return to the obsolete gold standard. Or he's a dishonest opportunist that is just using the gold standard as a platform to lead the uneducated and to enrich himself.
Oh, how true, wilco. Far better for our culture to have our checkbook balance than to worry about mainstreaming beasts having sex with children. /sasm
I'm pretty sure he's both.
Please explain how citing Iran's stated goal of wiping Israel, Washington DC and New York City "off the map" is "overdoing" it. These are exactly the targets Amminedjad named.
That is their stated goal when they achieve nuclear weapons.
I take them at their word.
Only ignorant, mis-informed and delusional Paul-tards wouldn't take such a threat from a radical Islamist country seriously. That's pre 9-11-01 thinking, and look where that got us: more than 3,200 dead, Twin-Towers destroyed, the Pentagon attacked, and countless familie's lives completely disrupted or destroyed as a result.
But yeah, let's not "overdo" this.
Paul is absolutely NOT a constitutionalist, he is the most dangerous type of statist imaginable.
Neither the term nor concept of "states' rights" exists ANYWHERE in the Constitution.
We the people have rights which come from God and are unalienable, to protect these rights We the people grant "powers" to the federal and state governments. However, governments are never given the power to infringe upon our individual rights, in fact it is expressly forbidden.
Unfortunately, Ron Paul and his followers have a blind devotion to the falsehood of "states' rights" and to this end they endeavor to bestow upon the individual states the power to trample God-given individual rights.
It would help if you also mentioned that you only believe in sex after marriage for the sole purpose of bring forth offspring with your spouse of the opposite gender who is of legal age, with the blessing of the Holy Church and then only in the dark with your socks still on. Yeah, that might help.

Stay on topic here. FOCUS if you can.
manc tried to get stockpirate to answer a simple yes or no question last night. stockpirate could not/would not. Or if he did - his answer deleted by the moderator.
I'm not trying to play a "Gotcha" game here. That would be too easy. All I wanna know is... "Is bestiality bad?"
Yes or no.
God given rights are all individual, so they belong to the people and not to the states.
A “state” does not have a RTKBA...an individual does.
A “state” does not have a right to life...an individual does.
A “state” does not have a right to free speech....an individual does.
Are you accusing Jim Robinson of banning people based on what someone ELSE says?! That's a pretty hefty charge. If you believe that Jim Robinson is someone elses puppet, why are you posting here? I wouldn't.
But then I know that Jim looks at peoples posting history.
I wasn’t posting to you. In fact I never post to you. You have exhibited once again why I never post to you. I have no interest in conversing with you.
Now that you’re here I’ll leave this thread.
Good bye then. Godless, immoral anarchists like you supply the MSM’s fodder against conservatives (of which you are not).
