This is where I close my eyes and pretend the world isn't there.

Christian for Ron Paul

I'm a Christian and one of the things that appeals to me abut Ron Paul is that he is not running on a faith-based platform, rather he is running on real issues. Christians value integrity, honesty, consistency, and courage. Ron Paul has all of these qualities. And he is a Christian, but doesn't wrap himself in it politically. The highest of moral caliber. Truly a Gold Standard.
 
Good grief. Can we get a separate topic section for bummed out people that are leaving the forum for whatever reason?

Jeez.

If anyone is leaving for whatever reason, can they please just do that so this doesn't turn into some "Dear John" grassroots forum?" You burn up people's energy with this crap.

Sinclair, not C.S.


Besides, dude (OP) you don't even have 20 posts. What did you do, purposely register to say that you're leaving the campaign? I don't mean to be harsh, but it's not like anyone would have noticed that you were missing, had you stopped posting. What was your reasoning behind the thread?

To all trolls: Go die.
 
I personally say a Buddhist president would be awesome.

...Blah blah blah...



George Bush has stated many times that he gets his guidance from Jesus and/or God.

How many times in history was religion used as an excuse to aggress another people? Indeed why did people leave Europe in the first place and found this country?

Is not religion the a factor behind the small group of radical Muslim individuals and and corresponding jihad?

The Crusades?




So I'm left to believe either that your intelligent wife is woefully ignorant of the history of this planet and its' people or that your handing us a line of bullshit.
 
he definitely messed up by saying that as it can be interpreted wrong, but geez, just explain it to her.
 
Always give people the merit of the down untill they prove otherwise. Let's not call people trolls and jump to conclusions.
 
Then Almitra spoke again and said, "And what of Marriage, master?"

And he answered saying:

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.

You shall be together when white wings of death scatter your days.

Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.

But let there be spaces in your togetherness,

And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

Love one another but make not a bond of love:

Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.

Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.

Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,

Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.

For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.

And stand together, yet not too near together:

For the pillars of the temple stand apart,

And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

THE PROPHET - Kahlil Gibran

Thats a beautiful poem
 
I've had similar issues with my girlfriend, who is very intelligent and worldly. However, I know that these are very big ideologies, and that her and I fundamentally agree on what's important: being kind and generous, making sure people are educated and prosperous, and promoting peace. We differ on our ideas of how to achieve those things, but those ideas and opinions can change - core values tend to stay constant.

Guys, if you ever have issues with someone you care about over this movement, try to find common ground in which you identify the humanity in the other person. You will likely find that we all value similar things, so there's no need to fight or feel isolated from one another.
