I don't doubt the man thinks he's right, I don't doubt that you do. But from the Tower of Babel forward, God has shown his face is against globalism.

What does God say about governments? He builds them and destroys them to display His power. He blesses those He chooses and others He deals out punishment. This is the "humiliation", that radical terrorists talk about when they talk about how they are "humiliated". The USofA is blessed, or has been, while Islam is left sucking sand.

I think it frivolous, at best, to assume that God's changed His mind, regarding His word, and has suddenly decided that the entire world should be democratized and divided into trade zones. I believe a person that does believe that is in disobedience to God and is merely enabling the anti-christ via globalism, no matter if the person believes he is the good guy, or not. That is where you and I differ, I believe.

I believe you misinterpret Scripture, and that's where your condemnation of others who 'disobey' it comes from.

The Tower of Babel was punishment for sin so that the people could not longer plot to disobey God. It is a stretch, based on your politics to relate it to your own personal view about globalism.

I can debate this point with specific Scriptures that regard God's love for the whole world, and the need for spreading the Gospel to the whole world, but I won't take the time now.

As to what the Scripture says about God and governments, you are absolutely correct. It is the conclusions, once again, that you draw, where we differ.

You have made some large leaps from what is there, once again, based on your political views, to what you believe (and I'm sure some others) as to what it means.

I respect you, Miss American Pie, and sooner or later, we always get down to a good discussion. We are very different. You think I'm wrong. I think you are.

But I would ask you to please stop implying that I am disobeying God in not thinking that George W. Bush is a globalist who is enabling the anti-Christ. It is not through ignorance or disobedience that I don't agree with you.

The Lord has laid upon my heart the need to pray intensely for President Bush, and I am being obedient to that. I pray, not just for blessing for him, but for instruction and correction where he is wrong. As long as you believe, as others do, that I am merely a "hero-worshipper" who doesn't obey God, you will never respect me, and I truly regret that, because I respect you.
