Don't try top pull the same accusatory stuff Colofornian tried on me to squelch my involvement in thesethreads. You've made a poor assumption because I have read the prophets as I read through the bible each time. In fact, it is clearly stated that sacrificing their children to idols was the abomination --'passing their children through the fires', read the sacrificing of their children to Molech, for one.

Did you vote for President Bush? Are you aware that George Bush is not 100% pro-life, that the Bush family is not 100% pro-life? Did you vote for McCain/Palin? Do you not see that such a vote was a compromise to your perfection principle since old mister compromise with the democrats despite their evil intentions was not 'standing for God's morality'?

There is something demonically brilliant in persuading folks to now, after all the years of voting to compromise over not true pro-life candidates, to now be absolutely rigid when doing so assures that the most evil lying leftists to ever be elected president will be again re-instated by those who will have nothing to do with your 'Gods morality' strictures. We The People are presently still the sovereigns of this nation. We still have the responsibilty to work at directing the leadership of this nation. Even if your perfected candidate were elected, We The People must continue to make our expectations and directions known to that leader.

It is said that politics is the art of compromise. Frankly, politicians want uUS to believe that but the relity is that it is their politics which compromises our values. If you choose to not vote at all on the presidential slot, you have effectively made a decision to avoid responsibility for that office holder. That is your right as an American and sovereign. But you know that the votes of others will then determine which candidate is the next head of state. If you choose to vote third party, as in Hoefling or Goode, then you have not shirked totally your responsibility. But you know also that there will be two candidates who will get the vast majority of the votes. There is a built in cheat factor with Democrats, and to knowingly allow the most evil to continue ruling is to have made a compromise to your responsibilities when a less dangerous candidate could have had you vote even if you do not agree with his etch-a-sketch approach to gevernance.

Again I would ask you, which of the twisters, Obama or Romney, would you guess to be more like Jacob? I will pray daily if Romney is elected that God direct his heart and turn him toward the morality more in God's expectations. But neither of the main candidates will function as a conservative at a level acceptable to those demanding perfection ... and that's what God's morality amounts to, perfection. I do believe it will be more likely that the prayers of the people will persuade God to turn Romney.

I don’t believe our prayers are meant to persuade God to grant our wishes. Rather, He wants us to see how He sees things. And He sees what is impossible for us to see and is even very hard for us to believe is possible.

Prayer is wonderful communion with God without waiting to be served the bread and the wine.

This whole subject boils down to vain arguments; some worship Friday, some worship Saturday, some worship Sunday. Some eat meat, some don’t. It’s a matter of whether our conscience condemns us or if it bothers another brother/sister.
