    What are you listening to right now?

    . I have always felt that if the biblical story of creation would have had a soundtrack, this would have been it. The solemn gravity of The Great One as he slowly, over the course of several days, painted his great masterpiece until the time at which he was pleased and then, rested. This piece...

    Former Obama administration official arrested for Islamophobic language

    . The non muslim should have every right in our "free" country to call him any name he wants even if it's unkind AND the muslim in return should have every right to retort with any name he wants. This is so scary to me that indeed, one has to watch what one says in this "free" country. Scary...

    thanksgiving plans?

    . Thanks Sherryh (and to Doc and Alayman as well - as well as Aleshanee's like) While I'd just as soon not have anymore birthdays, they are better than the alternative and I'm thankful for them. BY THE WAY - Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. .

    Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter in Hospice Care

    . Indeed, there's nothing to fear from me. I'm absolutely harmless - an old teddy bear. No offense, but the only thing you need to fear on this forum is your own inconsistency. Ever since you made the foolish and erronious statement that there is no such thing as a gay person, I've been...

    thanksgiving plans?

    . I've been told that that poor bird is already simmering, bless its heart. Tomorrow will find me down at my hotel - and on my birthday- to boot. A double day for me. Hopefully there'll be some cake along with that "pobre pabo". .

    Evangelicals Abandoning Trump

    . It's very easy to join the crowd and "hold one's nose" towards Trump's "lack of moral character". Along with christians, atheists, too, seem to think they are morallly superior to this man that has stood firm and resolve as THE WORLD seemingly assaults him daily. But history (long after we're...

    Dems Must Be Defeated.

    . As far as the "swamp" goes, there never was a swamp. No. But there is a large leak in the republic's sewer system caused by a substance known as greedite and it builds up inside the pipes and has slowly produced so much selfishic acid that it has eaten its way through the pipes and leaked...

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . To me I read this thread wrong. I read it as being about Carter as a man and his character - not his presidency or leadership style. But actually, it wasn't even about that. It was supposed to be about his faith But ended up being about his presidency. Threads have a life of their own...

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . Above, I said to Aleshanee that "good morals and consistent character do not guarantee consistently wise decisions and great leadership". And I also believe that bad morals and a consistent brash exterior do not necesarriy mean that one can't be a great leader. And I think he's a great example...

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . Your dad and I must be near in age because I remember when Ford and Carter ran. I was in college and that was my first election too. But I guess Reagan TRIED to get the nomination that go around BECAUSE he came to my college for a big rally. I remember it was held in the gym at the college and...

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . . I was in Murfreesboro, Tn at a sign language camp when Reagan became President. I remember those murderous thugs in Iran let our hostages go. And the sun began to come out from behind the clouds . . . .

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . I have no reason to be for or against The President but I do think it's important to listen to what he said rather than what it has been said that he said. And just after commenting that he had a hard time believing that Jesus would have been for abortion (and saying that he was not for it)...

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    . And while you disagree with me a little, I absolutely agree with you that "the world would be a much better place if we learned to mimic his wisdom and life". .

    Jimmy Carter: Saved by the Blood of Jesus

    President Carter should not be judged by an article written about him but rather, how he's lived his life for 98 years. Articles can and will be slanted - facts don't lie. His presidency aside, and his faith aside, his good deeds can't be disputed. I also don't consider him a "hero" of...
