Serious question: Do you believe that God is undertaking some Machivelian roundabout course here that we should try to divine, or do you believe that it is a more rational idea to leave God to his business and follow his clearly written instruction manual? Because in my readings of the book, nowhere does it say we should do anything but follow his instructions. Empowering Sodomy/baby killing et all is 100% opposite of what the Bible instructs.
Vote as you like. And live with the consequences.
You know Tamzee, I was a little curious about you because I’ve been really active on Mormonism threads since 2004 and I didn’t recall seeing you post on them before a few days ago, so I checked your posting history and found a two year absence and that you’ve recently returned to FR. Have you been on a Mormon mission by any chance?
J/K (sort of)
Serious question: Do you believe people can change? (Saul/Paul) or do you believe God can use people? (David)
If I vote for MR to get rid of zero, then is it possible that MR will do what he now says and NOT support abortion/homosexual marriage/etc. just as Paul changed from persecuting Christians? And could it be possible that MR would be our David (who committed murder and adultery) that God used for His glory?? I’m not saying that MR will allow it, but is it possible?? Then don’t go around pretending that anyone who votes for MR is empowering sodomy and baby killing. Because you don’t know WHAT God will do.
And if people can’t change or be used by God, then we are all in trouble.
