We have agreed on much, and I think of you as a FRiend.
I agree a person’s relgious beliefs will inform their judgements and choices when they hold political office. Insofar as morals are brought to us primarily from our religion(s)- that’s a good thing and I do not expect or desire otherwise.
- It’s what I said in my first post- the mixing of specific religious beliefs into politics worries me. I am- however- a pro-life conservative, and the lack of respect for life in our country is an awful spectacle.
- Not sure how we got from my not caring for James Dobson and his political pronouncements to being pro-life..
He spoke at Dr.D.James Kennedy's funeral last week....I was in tears...sobbing because his words were true and profound.
In essence he asked...WHO will take up the standard....WHO will be the vanguard in holding our nation accountable to Godly principles.
Falwell & Kennedy are with their Maker...
..those two giants of the Faith helped start the 'Moral Majority'....Evangelical Christian lobbying to effect positive change in our nation...(with RWR's blessing, I might add)
Dobson will 'press on' till God calls him home...
..but we need those who will take up this standard, who will uphold the foundation our nation once knew....the Judeo/Christian foundation as set forth in our Constitution!!
At the present time, we are floundering badly.....a Ship of State without a rudder.
