1: I did not post this under Breaking News, or News. Apparently the Mods changed it or something.

2: I came here for intelligent discourse with fellow Christians, and judging by the hateful remarks here, either you guys are frauds, or not Christians.

3: Does anyone have anything intelligent to add to this discussion? Is this the type of place where if the masses doesn't agree with your post you're shunned, ignored, deleted?

Well c'mon, you do realize that the only possible appropriate place for your post would be in the religious section?

Bzzzzt. You're barking up the wrong tree.

Let's start with the Pledge: When you recite it, you are pledging your support and alliance with the flag and the "republic for which it stands." Or in simpler English for those like you who apparantly do not understand what is being said, you are pledging your support to this nation, of which you are a citizen. You are pledging to defend this nation from enemies who would do it harm.

That's a far cry from "worshipping" it.

You are completely out of line when you accuse my cohorts here of not being Christian. You don't get to make that determination; God does.

I came here for intelligent discourse

What are ya, some kinda pervert? ;0) Oh... you said Discourse. My bad.

That being said, I think if you read Romans, and fully grasp what it says, you needn't worry about going to Hell just because you say the Pledge... :0)

What do you want? A dangerous One World government? That's the impression I got.

Utopia is a DREAM that depends on an ancient hierarchal physical body to continue. There IS a reason for jingoism and xenophobia, regardless of what the starry-eyed United Nations fan club members think. You CANNOT go to the local Lobotomies-R-Us and have that disgusting ancient animal part of the brain removed. You will NOT survive without it, figuratively and literally.

#1. I DO NOT appreciate being called un-Christian--for any reason. Do not judge and all that.

#2. The Bible- the real one- not the ones that J.W.'s use, will contradict everything you have been taught. I was there before, so I know. It is an eye-opener. I recommend the unedited King James Version.

#3. It is your post.....what did you really expect?

I came here for intelligent discourse

Your problem is clear! You came here for intelligent discourse and then proceeded to post something really, really stupid.

Garbage in - garbage out.

This isn't a CHRISTIAN forum, sweetie. Learn how to read.

Next, it is IMPOSSIBLE , to have an " intelligent debate/conversation/discussion with someone ( Y-O-U ! ) who is not intelligent. Hope this explination helps, dear. Now, get lost troll.
