Free Republic is a fringe right-wing Christian fundamentalist site... or so they say... and they might even be right.
We don't go for any of that godless left-wing big government socialist malarkey. And we do put our faith and trust in God, not government. We are pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Family, pro-Country and pro-Liberty.
We do not believe that government or science knows what's best for us or our children. We will make our own decisions thank you very much.
Every once in a while some group of posters get together and try to bend Free Republic to their will. Now, we tend to be pretty free-wheeling around here and will take a lot of guff and a lot of obnoxious insults from a lot of people, but eventually a breaking point is reached.
For example, when a group of RINO lovers recently banded together to try to force FR to accept an abortionist/gay rights RINO as our presidential candidate, they soon found themselves on the outs.
And a few years ago a group of evolutionists tried to force FR over to their way of thinking and they soon found themselves on the outs.
FR is a pro-God, pro-Creator, pro-Life, pro-Liberty site.
And now we have yet another group of Darwinists trying to have their Darwinist way with us. Well, as I've said before what doesn't kill us will only make us stronger.
Darwin Central has again declared war on FR. They have ping lists and email lists and will try to pull away as many FReepers as they possibly can. So be it. Those who would rather go with Darwin, please go. I sure as hell won't try to stop you.
FR will remain a pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Liberty, pro-Creator conservative site.
We wholeheartedly believe that our unalienable rights are a gift from God our Creator not from man or government. And no man, no government will ever deprive us of same.
Keep your powder dry.
I happen to know many educated fools, I would rather not be taught by you.
Right wing Catholic here.
Welcome, Bro.
Stand by for some "friendly" fire. As a Catholic we are never quite glatt enough.
Who stole it from another forum (out of context, no less) and posted it here?
No problem.
“Settled. Faith and reasoning is NOT compatible.”
THAT is an absurd statement. Man’s ability to reason and understand is the greatest gift GOD has bestowed upon humans. Reason is what leads to faith, and vice-versa.
Moses bargained with GOD, as did Abraham.
Without faith and understanding, we would be like the dumb beasts of the earth. BOTH are necessary. GOD comes not to tell you to put a coat on if it is cold outside.
In fact GOD has admonished man to learn and UNDERSTAND what he has learned because until the day we have the understanding GOD seeks from us, we can never go beyond this place. WHY would GOD teach you anything at all if you could not reason and understand?
Faith leads to understanding.

Then Job answered HaShem, and said:
2
I (NOW) know that Thou canst do every thing, and that no purpose can be withholden from Thee.
3
Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4
Hear, I beseech Thee, and I will speak; I will demand of Thee, and declare Thou unto me.
5
I had heard of Thee by the hearing of the ear; but now mine eye seeth Thee;
BUT NOW, MINE EYE SEETH THEE.
I think you said those same words to me at the First FR inaugaral ball. History repeats!
I would imagine not, being Catholic. I didn't know Catholics were kosher.
I am more of a deist that is happy to live under a Christian based country.
I took glatt to mean smooth and the Good Lord knows I’ve never been accused of being smooth. Just joshing.
Just like the "evidences" for their silly evo-religion - does anyone except a handful of leftist professors like Dawkins even believe in that "pond scum to people" and "billions of years-old-earth" and "Big Bang" nonsense any more? LOL!
Considering the alternatives......
Ah. One step forward - you admit you need to be taught.
Jesus is OFF the cross. Catch up, will you.
That’s the definition in Yiddish upon further research, but that’s not what initially comes up in a definition search.
Funny, I never said I was an evo, although I might be. Trouble is, you guys are just fighting a battle without knowing what war you are in. So, now you think I am a liberal, you couldn’t be farther from the truth.One thing I am not, and that is a crusader, y’all seem to have the corner on that market.
Whatever the motive and whoever author it fails the test of authenticity as part of God's Word. Example:
“17. And there was an order from the Emperor Augustus, that all in Bethlehem of Judaea should be enrolled. And Joseph said: I shall enrol my sons, but what shall I do with this maiden? How shall I enrol her? As my wife? I am ashamed. As my daughter then”
And Jesus is your God, he even told you that he was, oh wait, no, wasn’t him, other people said that didn’t they.
I grew up in New York with many Jewish friends. Some were glatt and some weren’t, some were from Kosher homes and some weren’t and some were tough and some weren’t. The tougheset were the Dads from Kosher homes when their daughters were dating the goyim from across the tracks.
