As with most things, the Bible can be interpreted in many different ways - I guess we'll all find out who has followed the correct interpretation at Rapture.

I would ask that you provide some examples of countries that have been as or more generous the the people of the United States? There are NONE! We are there whenever anything happens in just about any country, to feed, clothe, and give shelter. And I see you don't mention right to life (God knows us before we are born) or that "partners" be a man and woman that are married (had he intended for man to be gay, there would have been no need for Eve, right?) - these are some of the things held highly by a moral person or country. But your parents probably never taught you...

Slomo, you know that would mean we'd have to get rid of the vast majority of teachers, right?They are the ones cultivating generations of "I want everything but I don't want to have to work for it" who believe all this crap that has no factual basis. You heard McCain's daughter the other day? We have several generations coming up that believe whatever these whackos tell them, instead of doing their research to get the facts themselves, and then forming an opinion.

YOU and your ilk are what's wrong with this country - why don't you leave if you dislike our Founding Fathers priniciples so much?? And I'm glad you think the Tea Party movement is dead - it will be fun to see your reaction when many more parties take place this year - and we win in November!!!!!
