As long as these people have a free hand to attack and slander conservatives, I won't be posting on your site any longer.
It's been a good run, and I wish you the best. You and yours will remain in my prayers.

See you tommorrow.
Is your character so weak you have to quit when others don't think the way you do? You wouldn't make much of a leader, I am embarassed for you.
Free speech is tough, learn to appreciate it.
I didn't not intend to imply that you were a troll, and I was not following this thread so I do not know what specifically lead to your departure and will not comment on it.
Having discussed this issue with you only briefly I recognize and understand the zeal and passion you bring to this issue. I wish you luck and perhaps we'll see you around again.
This one has always given me extra hope and encouragement. May it do the same for you.
In Christ,

Psalm 139
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.
1 O LORD , you have searched me
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD .
5 You hem me in-behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.
19 If only you would slay the wicked, O God!
Away from me, you bloodthirsty men!
20 They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries misuse your name.
21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD ,
and abhor those who rise up against you?
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
What are you talking about? FR is the only conservative board that is taking the Keyes candidacy seriously. I bet we have about 150 threads on it. Some boards have only a handfull. While other sites are (wisely) steering away from this iceberg, we've plotted a course directly for it.
Don't let yourself be chased away by the distastefulness of some of those attacking you and Keyes. At least one is a longtime cheerleader for homosexuality and probable troll. Many others want conservatism to be the more conservative wing of the Godless moral anarchy party. Sorry to have been away during this firefight.
Have you left to join the Keyes carnival?
