<Perhaps the more important question is does God call him/herself a Christian, Jew, possibly Eastern Orthodox, or maybe {GASP!!} a Mormon like Mitt -- oh, perish the thought... How bout Amish -- they reject modernity in favor of a more simple and quaint life of Biblical devotion, and they are very strong in their convictions.. And does any of this blustering really matter??...>
PHS <PHS, "PigeonHole Syndrome" not to be confused with PMS> finds its way into every area of our culture, even the religious. Nobody in these days of labeling madness can just be a Christian. Are you Protestant or Catholic?
If you are Protestant what kind? Baptist? Methodist? Presbyterian? My question is simply, why can't we just be Christians?
I was behind an elderly lady at the post office recently and could not help overhearing the conversation. The lady wanted stamps.
The Postmaster asked her, "What denomination of stamps would you like?"
Putting labels on other people to see where people fit is not bad, except some people want to include God in this PHS equation and He does not fit.
Perhaps because we are in an election year, many people ask the question, "Is God a Democrat or a Republican?" I have never heard anyone ask if God was an Independent or member of the Green Party. Maybe they know something about these parties I don't.
During an election year, politicians will use anything or anyone to help their cause. Most politicians need more help in their cause than even God could give them.
However, some think it important to try to draw God into their party platform. The further behind they are in the polls the more they invoke the Almighty on their behalf.
Knowing God as I do, and understanding as much of politics as I do, no politician in his right mind (and try to find one in his right or left mind) would even want God on their side. God deals in absolutes. A thing is absolutely right or it is absolutely wrong ~~ My guess is this year they run against the Scopes Trial because Darwinism is heresy...
We must rescue the America we love from the duopoly ruining the country, its corruption and ignorance and indifference to the great silent majority becoming apparent each passing day. We must rid the airwaves of the vermin and the cockroaches who have sold their collective soul to the demons living among us. The process of transformation so many of us want, that of returning America to her people, while taking time, can be accelerated by altering the mechanism of duopoly and the role of the media. Both pillars of America have become corrupted beyond repair, becoming cesspools of waste onto themselves, needing complete destruction of their foundations so that they may live again, and flourish.
