Jeff is DEAD WRONG...yes, he's made some good points re those who've made dark choices and there's a long history that reflects it. But he misses the deeper story of who we really are as people. We are innately good as reflected by our Creator, as you can always see it when people get past their fears. The traditional Christian faith barely begins to touch on how deep this narrative really goes. Sadly fear is everywhere in our culture and both R's and D's are guilty of contributing to the pain that our country suffers from.

Simply a lie. The Bible says "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23). And, "There is NONE righteous..no, not one" (Romans 3)
Man is born with a sin nature pre-disposed to evil. Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross of Calvary. He offers eternal life and forgiveness to all who will come to God in His righteousness and merit. We have no good thing in us apart from Him. It is a fatal mistake to think otherwise.

Eleven years ago, al-Qaeda terrorist Richard Reid tried to blow up American Airlines Flight 63 with a bomb hidden in his shoes. As a result, air travelers to this day must remove their shoes to pass through security at US airports.

In 2006, terrorists plotted to destroy as many as 10 planes flying from London to North America using peroxide-based liquid explosives smuggled in their carry-on luggage. So passengers now must limit any liquids they carry through security checkpoints to minuscule containers sealed in clear plastic bags.

On Christmas Day in 2009, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab tried to blow up a...
