Huckabee Grassroots trying to ruin our day

[hawkeyenick]

Yes, your bigotry. Your statement is bigoted. I and other Christians shouldn't have to be insulted just because we support Ron Paul. This isn't an atheist board. Working together as a group requires tolerance and respect for other people's opinions that don't affect the actual group goals. The actual group goals here are electing Ron Paul, not stirring up trouble between Huckabee supporters and Ron Paul supporters through religious bigotry - check the title of your thread and your quote.

Since Ron Paul is a Christian, and one (if not two) of his brothers are ministers, I question your motives. Ron Paul wouldn't approve of your message, and he wouldn't have posted it. I suspect the quote is especially for Huckabee supporters (to stir them up and again imply that we are anti-christian (which you do again in this reply), but you can tell us your motives if you wish.

You sound like a huckabee subvert to me. Why else would you keep talking about his supporters and their likes and dislikes?
You're all allowed to be proud xtians but I'm not allowed to be a proud Atheist? That's bigotry, and a spit in the face of free speech and the establishment clause.

I'm actually suprised at how much Huckabee is raising today, they are still far behind us but at this stage his campaign must be GASPING for funds.

Huckabee can bairly afford to stay in the race at this point, much less run TV/Radio ads, so all the more shocking that he's polling so well.

But yah, Huckabee Campaign HQ must be estatic that they can keep running into December

If God wanted to use Huckabee to expose the problems in the church (ie raise him up to smack him down), that would be good. In light of that, the thread earlier showing Huckabee making fun of God and using His name in vain I think was a good thing, and perhaps should have been kept in grassroots.

Can we elect a President who understands the seperation between Church and State? Isn't that why people originally settled in America?

All that crap about Religious persecution.

Don't forget the part about there being no religious test for office, the fact that most of the founding fathers were deists (don't forget the jefferson bible either), and on and on and on.

Ok let's find out what things everyone agrees on, and not mention anything else.

Exactly, I love how my thread got jacked

 

[Ozwest]

Let's not forget that George Bush was elected and brought into power by so called "Christians."

Give me a break!

Sorry for my scepticism!

The recent tangent in this thread isn't about suppressing anyone's views. It's about presenting yourself in a manner that might attract, or at least not repel, other potential voters.

The kind of person that attracted me here was a rebel that did things his way

Let's be conformists, and be politically correct!

 

[Lord Xar]

we DO NOT CARE ABOUT HUCKABEE...

HE IS A TOOL!

HE IS A LIAR, AND A PAWN.

www.taxhikemike.org <--- spread that far and wide

We do not care - stop mentioning his name.

Why is Dr. Paul's graph so linear from nearly 8:30 to 11:15?

Wow. You're a rebel. It is great to know that you're just trying to generate support, though.

It's not about conforming or being politically correct. It's about presenting yourself in a manner that might attract, or at least not repel, other potential voters.

Please everyone, I would advise you keep your eyes on the prize. IF we do not win this thing there may not be another election in America for a very long time. We are that close to loosing it.

Dear hawkeyenick:

With reference to your signature:

Who's God?
You know when you close your eyes and wish real hard for something?
Yea?!
God's the guy that ignores you!

I personally have no problem with it, I can also clearly see that your advocation of such a view could be offensive to those who cannot handle it. Maybe if you think about it for a minute you can to? Right here and now, is your main goal to get Ron Paul elected? If so, what is the benefit of being a catalyst for religious debates?

Here and now I argue that unity of purpose to preserve our liberties and get a win for Ron Paul might motivate you to avoid any secondary issues that could detract from such an effort AT THIS particular time. Which is more important to you, to argue for a particular view on metaphysics (for what ever personal reasons) and ultimately loose your very freedom to express such views, OR to promote unity and work united towards the vital issue of being able to freely express views on Atheism/Deism/Christianity/etc/etc, in the future?

I think we do the best in a supportive atmosphere for the vital issues of the day. Sure debates about metaphysics are great, but here and now? What if even one person is offended to the degree they do not give 100 %? Sure from a certain metaphysical viewpoint it might be important to promote such a view (Let it be?!), but here and now? I have already taken too much precious time on this thing.

Like mr paul, I don't sacrifice things I believe in.

 

[greensheen]

No one is asking you to sacrifice your views. I am asking you to think about the current situation and to asses where you put your emphasis and priorities at THIS particular TIME. Freedom will unite us, metaphysics will divide us. Such is the nature of things (at this time). Do you think differently?

 

[1town]

Just like I don't want 9/11-nuts tying their beliefs to the Ron Paul revolution, I don't want us atheist to offend christians in the name of Ron Paul.

First of all, why try to alienate the people you need to win? Secondly, Ron Paul is christian, so obviously atheists have to compromise on that subject (and any that follows) while acknowledging what his base should be.

 

[philgest]

The Huckaboos will not raise more than us today, nor will they meet their goal of over 2 million for the month of November...they'll be about 50K short of 2 million at the end of the day.

 

[TheNewYorker]

We ruined their day. Can you blame them?

 

[peruvianRP]

hope they are not taking from the church's donations. hahaha
