This is my last response on this matter. I was responding to the initial post regarding religion in the political race. I am unaware of ANY politician attempting to push laws in the way you write about. I am in total agreement, though. I do not want any government, politician, or law to tell me what religion (or lack thereof) to practice. My religion doesn't even force me to practice anything. I do so because I choose to practice and obey what my religion teaches which is a part of how I make decisions in all areas of my life. My religion is not just something I do/practice/believe only on Sundays. It is a part of me, my life, and my thinking.

You see, I am a thinking Christian -- intelligent, analytical, joy-filled, learning new things everyday, lover of all people and cultures, and totally qualified (if I chose to do so) to be the next president of the United States.

Hitler put a mark ( a tatoo on Jew's forearms) on the right arm of his enemies. The Antichrist will put a mark on the right hand or forehead of his followers. Hitler led the world into a great war. So will the Antichrist. Now, Obama is no Hitler, to be sure. But Obama has a political cult-like following as the Antichrist will. Obama is a very good speaker just as the Antichrist will be. Obama has rock star status as will the Antichrist. Obama's rise to power was swift as will be the Antichrist's. I believe Obama is more of an indicator or guage of how willing and prepared the world currently is to be deceived and follow the true Antichrist.


I gotta be honest, here. If you removed obama's name in your post, and replaced it with Palin's it would work equally well.

If you are saying that the bible or the book of revelation states anything about the Antichrist being a male, please read the book before stating such ridiculousness.

It's even on snopes; Check it out.

Well, I am losing any confidence I may of had in how this country will vote (not that I ever had any confidence). There is a multitude of Obama anti Christ videos on you tube. Presumably done by people who thought that it will actually sway votes away from him. Whats sad for me is what passes for political discourse in America. Today a poll was given on our local TV station on how people felt about the phrase "lipstick on a pig" and whether it was sexist or not for Obama to have used it. Its now 55 days left before the election and at least one whole day was spent on discussing another non-policy issue. We behave like children, we're focused on superficial irrelevant nonsense that has no bearing on our lives.

Why are the Christians the ones with violations? Just a thought.

Not all Christians are.

Just the person who has repeatedly been on this forum harassing other members and has been asked several times to leave.

"Amarillobymornin" was a person who has been banned from this forum for harassment and tries to sneak back in every so often by changing his name and IP addess. I've lost count of how many names he has used by now - somtimes he has even logged in with 2 names at one time and backed himself up with a phony identity to seem more authentic.

We have several editors that are Christians (and not only the ones that write for Christian based sites, and including myself). And while the debates can get a little lively at times, they are respectful. That is where "amarillo" always crossed the line.
