Complete misread of my post.
No slight to my FR intended, or even remotely implied.
In case anyone didn’t read the Welcome message on teh front page of this website:
Statement by the founder of Free Republic:
In our continuing fight for freedom, for America and our constitution and against totalitarianism, socialism, tyranny, terrorism, etc., Free Republic stands firmly on the side of right, i.e., the conservative side. Believing that the best defense is a strong offense, we (myself and those whom I’m trying to attract to FR) support the strategy of taking the fight to the enemy as opposed to allowing the enemy the luxury of conducting their attacks on us at home on their terms and on their schedule.
Therefore, we wholeheartedly support the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes on known terrorist states and organizations that are believed to present a clear threat to our freedom or national security. We support our military, our troops and our Commander-in-Chief and we oppose turning control of our government back over to the liberals and socialists who favor appeasement, weakness, and subserviency. We do not believe in surrendering to the terrorists as France, Germany, Russia and Spain have done and as Kerry, Kennedy, Clinton and the Democrats, et al, are proposing.
As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.
Free Republic is private property. It is not a government project, nor is it funded by government or taxpayer money. We are not a publicly owned entity nor are we an IRS tax-free non-profit organization. We pay all applicable taxes on our income. We are not connected to or funded by any political party, news agency, or any other entity. We sell no merchandise, product or service, and we offer no subscriptions or paid memberships. We accept no paid advertising or promotions. We are funded solely by donations (non tax deductible gifts) from our readers and participants.
We aggressively defend our God-given and first amendment guaranteed rights to free speech, free press, free religion, and freedom of association, as well as our constitutional right to control the use and content of our own personal private property. Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of life.
Our God-given liberty and freedoms are not negotiable.
May God bless and protect our men and women in uniform fighting for our freedom and may God continue to bless America.

I hope she used the last 6 weeks of her life as a second chance to enjoy life, given her close call in June

I pray she used the last 6 weeks of her life working on her relationship with God. How many others are given a second chance no matter how short and waste it? Too many I fear.
“I think the point was that the culture is slowly making people embarrassed to admit they believe in God. The media and re-education centers (schools) are succefully making people question whether or not they should believe in or speak of a higher power.”

Precisely. You get it. Thanks.
I deal with people on an individual, highly personalized basis, daily.
I see the Hand of God in the absolute miracle, of which I am a very humble caretaker.
Even mentioning His name, in a casual case summation, often elicits a double take or look of surprise. It may be my imagination, but I find this to be especially pronounced in “educators”.
Sadly true.
FR is God friendly, however not all of the posters are. Ever see the responses when a Religion thread gets put on the sidebar? It ain’t pretty. There are a lot of posters here who are antithetical to God and faith and especially defense of the Christian faith.
She died.
Fight the “awkwardness”, it can be a symptom of attempted Demonic oppression!
Jesus Christ is Lord, Son of the Living God! Indeed he is God in Flesh!
Make it a daily confession! The awkwardness will subside soon enough!
Some of the most vile people I have encountered are anti-Christian conservatives.
Then they need out of here. Zot. That said, the only nasty comments I have seen are those posted when Mormons claim to be Chrisitian.
I wonder what it is she ‘knew’?
Me too.
If they push it they do get the zot. I’ve seen some nasty comments on the CREVO threads as well as a few others aside from the Mormon threads.
EyeGuy, Never be ashamed of mentioning God. There are still plenty of us who enjoy a relationship with our Savior. I am proud to talk about Him and I think you really are too. Our Creator!Without Him we would not have life. When we confess our sins and accept him as savior, then we have eternal life. I hope that young woman made that choice at some point before she died.
