What is most disturbing is that these folks are so willing to throw away the principles that make us what we are - They seem completely oblivious to the notion that Conservatism isn't a political 'chip' to play, but rather that it is a way of living. Asking me to throw away Conservative principles for ANY reason is a grievous error - an insult of a very high order. To DEMAND I sacrifice principle on the altar of political expediency is far beyond the pale.
That ANY Christian would vote for this man is beyond me. That the principle of LIFE (not to mention marriage) can be so utterly destroyed without a whimper is astounding to me. But then, WE know that principles cannot be destroyed... That some would so easily cast them off is merely indicative of their character. The principle itself remains unmoved. Forever TRUE.
It does go to show how low in esteem they hold such things, and one can pity them for it.
This is off topic (maybe). My mom (as all moms) would say clean your room. (whining of course happens)
Anyway, the first thing she would do is open the doors to our dressers, regardless of how clean the room appeared to be.
What she taught us was it didn't matter what people saw, it was the things people didn't see which showed our true character.
Her point was that if we could keep the drawers organized and clean it was like our being was of good character.
So there are some I talk/argue/whatever who appear to be fine people on the outside, yet I think "wonder what their dresser drawers look like".
Precisely correct.
