Funny how they came to America for religious freedom, but then decided everyone in America should be Puritan. Remember their Salem Witch Trials.

He sounds like a Universalist who didn't believe in hell. Jesus never condemmed anyone. He only reminded them how they were condemming themselves.

Perhaps they had to get political to fight back against the courts of Earl Warren and Warren Burger who started to limit religion in public.

Every program for them has been an expensive failure.

No one can say it any better.

Byron, he went to the Soviet union and denounced America.

DC will pass something as SSN. The first generation gets a free ride off the backs of the generations to come. Paine was so right.

Our forefathers were far greater thaqn what we have now running things.

An interesting fact is that J P Morgan only owned 19 percent of his bank. The Rothchilds owned the rest.

Although money is myth, folks will kill you to take it from you.

You are right J Carlton. Self preservation and these tools to do so is what built this nation.

Our greatest president never got it wrong.

They used that line for Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq where the government got us into messes without withdrawal plans.

Religion should be a very personal thing.

Very interesting comments. Very informative.

So much of the Devil's evil is done in the name of God, Allah, or whomever. One must beware.

Why we must search our own souls often.

He never got my vote.
