I guess I think more of you than you do of yourself - that you are a grown up and can think on your own. So I see now you're not with that comment! I think you're just an attention seeker. Bye troll.”

Rev. Henrickson is a Missouri Synod Lutheran minister with more than a decade of participation on Free Republic.

He's not a frequent poster on the political threads, but he is no troll.

A side point to everyone, me included: We as conservatives need to deal with the fact that the level of our discourse on the internet is not ... ahem ... very much like that of the Federalist Papers. People who think and write like the authors of the Federalist Papers act the ways the Founding Fathers acted.

People who don't think and write that way don't act that way, either.

That's a lesson all of us need to remember. Let's leave the trash talk and destructive discourse to the liberals. They're good at it. We shouldn't try to emulate them.

Amen to your thoughtful post, darrell.

I understand what Charles is saying, and know that he speaks for a lot of good, solid conservative freepers who don't do much posting.

Thoughtful discourse is a very difficult thing to manage on this board, and sometimes is best avoided if you're not a group thinker.

Ah, the liberal ' don't you know who I am '! LOL! I'd say that's a real desperate attempt. I don't know one minster who cowers from speaking Truth or blaming others because they can't. Although I do know they exist.

This is a conservative 'WeThePeople' site - not a religious site. We don't bow to or support known lying candidates and never support them. They are repulsive as are their con man tactics designed to deceive. But ministers do embrace them - just ask Rev Jerry Wright! It takes all kinds for evil to survive.
