A really big problem I have with some homosexuals, is their narrow-mindedness and close-mindedness about Christian and other religious beliefs. For anybody, homosexuals especially included, to discount the profound positive effect of Jesus on the entire history of men, is bizarre and weird.

A problem I have with some Christians, is their rabid personal reaction to homosexuals.

It truly does not seem possible to me that Jesus would approve of the expressions of hatred and animosity toward people (homosexuals) who are saying: this is the way we are, for whatever reason.

Doesnt everyone have an individual struggle with sin, however sin is defined?

It is important to keep in mind here, that so much of the discussion of sinfulness touches on government, and the role of government.

To me, abortion is the most ugly and disturbing practice going on today. Yet we accept it as if it were no big deal. Innocent human beings ... our brothers and sisters ... killed for convenience.

It is like living in a nightmare, to realize not only that innocent human life is being scraped to death, burned to death, dismembered to death, but also that the deaths are so widely regarded as not a big thing. We do not treat dogs that way, nor should we.

In the big picture, in the way life presents itself to us as imperfect and necessarily muddled, why would anyone waste his time condemning the love a man has for a man, or a woman for a woman? Because there is sex involved? Does anyone really want to go there?

Abortion. Islam. The mentality of unconstitutional government in all it's forms (oppressive taxation, over-regulation, pompous elitest judiciary).

The assault on the American system of justice, a wonder so casually maligned by liberals and conservatives alike, but a treasure for us all.

America is the guardian of liberty and miracle of all human history.

Why sweat the stuff which is only between God and man?
