You'll have to forgive us, Moostraks
So please understand that when you say you're a "True Christian", that's meaningless. Your religion has been co-opted so badly that the name "Christian" is now nearly a curse word.
Show us who you are by your actions, and your works. Tell us what you believe. (And yes, you just did.. thanks!)
Now, as it stands, Dr Paul is against the seperation of church and state.. if his voting record is to be believed. I understand that you don't want government and religion mixing, but I think it's fair that Dr Paul doesn't share that opinion, and he wants it left up to the states.
In the end though, the religion you identify with is a death cult.
I think states rights is the best we can hope for currently. Is it perfect, no way, but when you remove the federal governments incentive programs for many state run agencies the corruption will diminish, but then unfortunately redirect to state lobbyists...My husband was not much happier with this thought either. So my consolation to him is that at least at the local level you are a whole lot closer to raise Cain with the officials as opposed to traveling to Washington and you have a more intimate relationship if you care to with officials since there are fewer. You are dealing with a smaller consensus, too.
I know it has been co-opted (the religion). I am not quite sure how we could reclaim what has been stolen, though. I believe that Dr.Paul is the real deal. He isn't perfect, but no one is. He sure is the best thing I have seen in moral character in a long time. To think he has been dealing with Washington and still can be human amazes me.
Why would anyone would be concerned with my deeds??HAha that's funny...Okay seriously, I am a homeschooling mom. I have 7 children. The oldest is in public school, long story. I detest government intervention. I have first hand experience with government corruption at the receiving end. It was directly regarding my religion too. So if I am defensive about my beliefs,well I have been under duress on this matter previously. I know what corruption comes from federal benefits provided to state institutions. It is ugly. So along with the genuine fear I have that the doomsday cult would like to put my children on the slaughtering line for their Holy War, I also want the government (especially the federal government) to back off. They foul up more things then they get right and are treading in areas they have no business controling.
The big kicker...this is such a lose lose for us if Dr.Paul doesn't get in. We are headed towards a draft, so they can take my children for their war that I don't agree with (100 years
