I was raised as a Catholic, and as I was going through life and college I decided that I would be either an agnostic or an aetheist.

My epiphany came during late fall 2000.

I ascribed to being a Christian all along, but only went through the motions.

But after the abject display of what occurred on November 8, 2000, it became a question of whether "what was up to no good" would continue to govern or whether "good" would triumph and allow this Nation an opportunity for greatness based on fair principles.

To put it more bluntly, I figured if there really was a God and all that were true, he would not allow this Nation to suffer a coup and be plunged into the abyss such a move would cause, but would rather allow Good to triumph.

Of course, for Good to triumph, those who which to see it so had to answer the call - and I do believe the call went forth based upon our collective prayers being constantly offered to deliver us from the tragedy that we, in our human failings, had allowed to come into being.

For me, all of this had to have occurred with the intervention of a higher power. It is the only way. Our prayers were answered. And I came to believe with my heart.

Love your testimonies....!!

I was brought up in a deeply devout Southern Baptist family.........church was my other home.

I was 'baptized' at 8.

...but as Chair said.....it didn't reach my heart, until I was 35!

I tried to be as 'good' as I could be............but I wasn't....not inside, where it counts.

I didn't have my epiphany until 35, and God shook me down to my core.

Am very thankful ....late is better than never.

PS...and my husband joined me 2 years later.

We were both big workers in the church all the time our hearts weren't even right with the Lord!!

Now we still work in the church, but it's a whole different perspective.

If liberals could have their way, John L. Perry [NewsMax] believes the following would be the new Pledge of Allegiance:

I pledge allegiance
to an empty flag pole
of the United States of America
for which it stands,
one nation,
invisible,
disavowing God,
no longer in existence.

The link in Molly's post 81.... is huge and people are missing the linkage to CFR..

USSC said money = speech......CFR limits money.....hence it limits speech right?

I think we might gleam the Court's thinking on CFR from this decision...

Chair, as you know, I was not acting like a christian during those infamous 33 days. I was getting ready (as was the First Lady, believe it or not) for a post coup United States.

I am embarassed now to talk about it, but I truely believed that force of arms was the only choice.

But, then, IMHO, the Lord intervened.

Good thing, because I'm too old to go to war again.
