• Dems & Media Imply Romney May Have Committed a Felony — But What’s the Full Story?

  July 12, 2012 at 4:59pm

  It’s a sad fact that many sue anyone and everyone for anythinng and everything. Let’s concentrate on educating ppl to the facts. Let’s teach them how to not fall prey to any commercial, news show, teacher, or preacher. The future is with teaching children to think for themselves and decide if what they are being told makes sense. Blind obedience is dangerous. Critical thinking is no longer the goal of teachers. Imagine how well our youth could deal with anything if they no longer had access to the internet, cell phones, etc., grocery stores, calculators, heck, indoor plumbing. Are your children and grandchildren equipped to deal with that?

  Talking words to be wary of. MAY have….followed up with the headline that will get public attention, become a talking point, many will miscontrue it to mean “guilty of”. Becoming the new “talking point” of supportors of the president. Watch for it. It’s now the norm for attacking any opponent.

  Bikerdogred, there is the fact that a governor did issue an order that Mormons could be legally killed in Missouri.

  Broper, I thought that Reid converted to the LDS faith. I am well acquainted with the community of Search Light, NV, his home town.

  I refuse to comply. I wil NOT engage in hatred when I disagree. LONG ago I tried it when I felt I had been injured, doesn’t matter why, it did’t work. I almost let it destroy my life. I had to seriously pray that the hatred would cease. Took quite awhile since I’m stubborn. Never again. I picture myself in the mind/soul of a person consummed by hate. No thank you, been there, done that.

  In reply to pennswoods.

  Ditto to everything you said, including that I’m a Roman Catholic. You said it much better than I could.

  In reply to TheCounterRevolutionary.

  Thank you for saying it so well. I am not LDS, but live among many who are. “My” bishop went door to door and asked ppl of any faith or none, what they could/would be able to do in the event of ANY emergency in the community. They left the papers, wished us well, and left. I have NEVER felt any pressure to join their faith.

  Many embrace hatred of things they know nothing of. it’s the “cool” thing to do. It’s akin to doing unspeakable things to others to post on Youtube, or say anonymously on the internet. To inhabit that mind/soul would seem to me as hell.You can never have happiness when hatred consumes you.

  I refuse to be consumed by hatred for a person or cause that differs from mine. That hatred will ultimately consume those that do. They will live their lives in misery and unhappiness, always blaming other ppl and things. Those who lose hatred and don’t believe in God will be happier. Hatred is a fatal disase that will kill you, either in real life, or it will deprive you of any happiness.

  There are some who will hate people of any faith that worships God. Most true people of faith recognize that in any religion, individuals (any human being regardless of faith or lack there of), make mistakes, ie., sin. No human being is perfect, we all make mistakes. The difference is that ppl of faith try to improve themselves. They try to live their lives to a higher standard, which helps them and their community. One cannot and should not engage in replaying to plain hatred, it is and always been with us. Nothing positive occurs.
