Except for his unfortunate go along to get along support of TARP, bailouts, stimulus spending and the increased credit limit, etc, Ryan is a pretty good choice. Probably the best choice of the RINOS that were on Romney's short list. I support Ryan for the vice presidency. Wish he were at the top of the ticket, though.
But I still cannot and will not support the grand father of ObamaCare. Romney still loves and brags about his bastard brainchild, RomneyCare, even today when he knows what an anti-liberty socialist POS it is.
And the fact that he advocated that abortion should be safe and legal in America for over three decades of his adult lifetime and even advocated that Roe v Wade should be supported and sustained as settled law precludes any consideration whatsoever by this pro-life Christian for Myth Romney for the presidency.
And the fact that he boasted that he would be better for "gay rights" than Ted Kennedy, and proved it just increases my resistance.
That, and his penchant for gun control, his continuing support for global warming, gays in the scouts, gays in the military, and his record of appointing liberal judges makes it all but impossible for me to support him.
Lastly, we're having a bit of changeover on our moderator staff. At least two moderators resigned this afternoon after I flatly refused to rein in a so-called anti-Mormon "bigot" on FR. Well, if being in opposition to false prophets and false prophecy makes a Christian believer a bigot, then I guess I'm a bigot. I've posted before that I flat do not believe that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God. Nor do I believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. The Christian bible warns us to be weary of false prophets and that I am. Romney being the presumptive Republican nominee does not change that fact.
They aint my ‘heroes’. Christ is my Hero. And He confronted the false teachers of His day, just like these other followers of Christ are doing. Would you accuse my Hero of lacking in Love when He called false teachers, “sons of the devil”?
By your silence, obviously not. But it doesn’t stop you from going into the weeds scripturally to try to pile more requirements on Christ’s followers than what Christ did Himself.
Like I said, I’m doing fine. I’m more than happy to answer your question if you answer the questions I’ve put to you. But you’ve got to be honest; I’ve detected a lack of it in my dealings with you.
i never knew that ‘conservative’ was some kind of fetish attitude for which one willingly became short sighted. but again i’m such a conventional person.
and Jesus Christ called Peter a satan once... that does not mean He did not put Peter on a path to genuine greatness.
I may have be wrong
it may be of the Ten Commandments that if you transgress one youve transgressed them all...
Any supposed “conservative” who denies that voting for Mittler is short-sighted does not understand the meaning of “short-sighted.”
The clothespin nose voter rightly long views your quest as quixotic. Given survival at hand, one is arguing about whether the caviar you can’t get is better than the moldy rations you can.
Is Paul Ryan the “miracle?”
“There is only ONE Savior; and He really does NOT like sharing His glory.”

I can’t get you to see, I wish I could. It will have to
be Our Lord, He has a way.
You accept and understand there is “ONE Savior” same as
Scripture states, One Lord, one faith, one baptism Ephesians 4:5.
But here comes your disconnect. Makes sense, believe, Jesus established “ONE church” and He said Satan would never overcome His Church - Matthew 16:18.
All those who have broken away, started their own version
of Our Lord’s Church are going to have to come home “soon.”
Remember when this happens, it’s the prophesied “awakening” or known as the “illumination of conscience”, only God can show you every moment of your life. To prepare, it could happen in 2013. Examine your life, with true contrition confess your mortal sins to God. Catholics have to do more, they must go to Confession. We will not feel the pain of “CONFESSED” sins in our life review. Oh yes, pray every day from now on, I think you do already.
'Cause it's a vote for OBAMA; bone head!!
--MormonDude(Unless you are a liberal that can no longer STAND Obama. Then your write-in is a vote for ROMNEY!)
WAIT!
How does THAT work??
No; that is the same logic as the write-in vote thingy.
AB tells US how to do business: period.
I’ve posted Scripture already. I won’t be posting it again so you won’t read it, again.
I’ve already said exactly what you all are doing, and what you’re doing is acting in a manner contrary to Scripture.
You are divining another’s heart by making statements that they do not belong to Christ, are not saved, are not Christians. You are not God, you are forbidden to judge (divine) another’s beliefs and standing with God.
When you teach, you are to teach as Christ said, in love and with love, and those Scriptures of how a Christian is to act was also already posted.
You are destroying your testimony by acting in a manner that is contrary to God’s Word.
Yes, He did.
And that 'church' is the corporate body of believers; not a large, institutionalized and centralized organization.
I seem to recall a list of positions and/or titles of jobs that were to BE in that 'church' as well, and the big organized one emanating from Rome seems to have added a few.
The Book says...
1 Peter 2:9 King James Bible
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light
... not merely a few MEN.
You might want to translate that first sentence into cognizable English.
I wouldn't be to sure of that...
Revelation 20:12
“And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.”
I don't see where John was shown another group; those who are somehow EXCLUDED from the above.
I’ve never understood that verse. Does this mean that, despite our names written in the Book of Life, that some deeds in our past can still knock us out of Heaven and God’s presence?
It’s pretty clear from Christ’s own words that our deeds are irrelevant when it comes to salvation.
