Thank you for your question? Alpowolf, I pray that we as a nation will repent from our wicked ways. I know you hate for me to use scripture but I cannot sum it up any better than II Chronicles 7:14, "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

As for people like yourself who are not a Christian, I pray that you will receive Jesus Christ as Your personal Savior and Lord. (I will be praying for you today). I was just like you at one time thought I had all figured out but had a true "emptiness" inside of me about life. Then a friend of mine shared with me how I could have a personal relationship with God. Let me know if would like to find out and I will post how you can know for sure that you are going to heaven and live forever. It is a very reasuring feeling when you know when you die (and there is a 100% chance you will someday) that you know where you will go.

No doubt. Much like the reassuring feeling when you know 70 virgins will be waiting for you right after you smack that 757 into the tower.

Religious certainties are so comforting.

I appreciate you responding but that's not quite what I'm asking. Since 9/11 I have heard many say that we're being "chastised"--as a nation. So what concrete actions should our nation take?

I note that the author keeps mentioning abortion. Does he want abortion outlawed? Is the fact that we currently do not outlaw abortion the reason we've been "chastised"? If that's what he thinks he should say so straight up.

In the interest of honesty I should say that I do not agree with this theory of Heavenly punishment. I try to listen to all viewpoints but am growing weary of the vague finger-waving. I would like the proponents of this theory to speak plainly. Their failure to do so makes me think that they are exploiting this tragedy to advance their agenda.

Please DO NOT PRAY FOR ME!!! As far as I'm concerned, people of your ilk are no better than the Taliban or bin Laden. We either have to think the way you think or God will punish us for or horrible misdeeds. God doesn't need you to speak through, to have you decide how evil we all our, except for you of course and a few of your select buddies here.

Your God is some twisted deity who gets pleasure from punishing people. My God is one who loves us all and and lives in our hearts and does his work through us. His heart is full of love and forgiveness, not filled with rage and hate as your so called 'God' is.

Sorry for the tirade, people like truthandlife need to take a break from putting their spin on what they think God wants and then trying to impose it on the rest of us. Either that or sign up for a slot in the Taliban ....
