The term "Servile Fearfulness"is appropriate today.

T think it was Bob Hope who said that a bank is an institution that will lend you money if you can prove you don't need it.

Read "Misquoting Jesus" by Bart Ehrman to see why I wrote the second sentence above.

I'm with Paine on this. We can never be sure exactly what Jesus taught since the Bible was copied and recopied hundreds of times and many errors occurred because of this. Assuming he said what the New Testament says, his teachings seem to be that we be as kind as possible to fellow occupiers of this planet. He said nothing about dying for sins or who gets to wear the funny hat in Rome.

Jefferson was a deist. He once said that he wouldn't trouble you with his religion if you would not trouble him with yours. "The Essence Of Jefferson " by Martin Larson is a great book on Jefferson's opinions on religion, politics and more. Many of his letters to John Adams are included.

Be as kind as possible to others is my religion.

Since I am very intolerant of Muslims I must be "intolerant". I just seem to have a hard time with people who will cut your head off if you don't convert to their so-called religion. Read "Marked for Death", by Geert Wilders and see what I mean.

I watched a video of Jay Carney "debating" with Scarborough. Jay is the White House secretary. They must teach spreading bull shit with a straight face at Yale, Carney's alma mater. Check it out on YouTube and see what I mean.

The more we change our rulers, the more things stay the same, or get worse.

And people who can't hear if they have listened to rock music.

Not easy to rate this one. However , I remember back in the 60's when a bunch of leftwing hippies managed to chain themselves in the Dean's office, I believe at Yale, demanding God knows what. This certainly would qualify for a firm hand from the local police. Many times a firm hand is needed.

The Constitution is just an annoyance to Obama and the usual suspects in D.C.

jim k, Austin, Tx

We really don't need a Congress anymore, since His Majesty, King Obama does everything through executive orders now days.

In other words, any act or law contrary to the Constitution is null and void. This doesn't matter to the powers that be, however.

I'm with J Carlton on this one.

Liberals run on emotion and the word gun scares them to death. If they used reasoning powers they wouldn't be liberals.

This pretty well sums it up.

J Carlton, 5 stars for your comments.

Ivan is right in his assessment of the environmental movement.
