Acting on principles requires serious consideration of the results of one’s action. I don’t see your actions as principled or moral, because the results are greater harm to the republic

#1 this is pure utilitarian pragmatism ethics disguised as "morality" ... as if empowering an abortion healthcare mastermind like either Obama or Romney can be skewed by you to be "moral" conduct...

Tell you what...go dismember a few pre-born babies and then come back and try to spout how "moral" that action is...

Pathetic and lame.

#2...your portended "results are greater harm to the republic" might be true; might not be true.

Your phrasing here is always worth a mention on these threads (just not trying to embed them in anything "ethical").

The Q then becomes...are you speaking as a prophet here?

How do you know that God won't more immediately judge a nation of so-called "Christians" who don't mind endorsing, promoting, and elevating a man who claims to be a living embodiment of a rival god to THE God???

If somehow you think that God didn't tend to get more riled up over the spiritual adultery of His people -- than the pagans in the Old Testament -- then you haven't carefully read the OT.

Yes. You seem to disagree, why?

are you speaking as a prophet here?

No I think the point is self-evident, not prophetic.

If you mean do I think the Obama regime remaining in power is a result of considerable harm? I think that, too, is self-evident. Further I think that result would be the maximum harmful result possible in this election.

Where I am disagreeing, with you too perhaps, is in granting the moral or principled high ground here. I think that is not self-evident when working to defeat the political opponent of the current regime.

thanks for your reply.
