Yes. Welcome to FreeRepublic.com, eternalperspective .....
Bingo- I am a Jesus Freak. I'm encouraged that "Free Republic" also means freedom of religious expression. If it weren't for the "Christian Right," (although most who identify themselves with this group are not "Christian" based on the John 3:16 definition) George W. Bush would probably be a Senator from Texas and Al Gore would be running for a second term. I know everyone's a bit testy right now, but my rock-hard belief in the afterlife enables me, (and George W. Bush) to stand resolute no mater what comes on November 2nd. Incidently, not hating our apponents doesn't nueter us in a drag-down fight, it actually gives us the hope (and moral fortitude) to keep fighting. (Think of George Washington at Valley Forge) We see a bigger picture (outside the present events) because we believe ultimately, if we live the way we believe God wants us to live, justice will prevail.
If I had my choice between going to church today to pray for a President Bush victory, or staying home watching 24/7 breaking news while they show the NYTIMES offices that were mysteriously blown-up...I'd pop the corn and grab a seat on the sofa.
To place your faith in God...to seek gratification in believing our sworn enemies will see justice in the afterlife is well....DUMB and STUPID and NAIVE.
There...I feel better now. ;^)
