If you are a godly person, if you believe in Jesus and try to live as he did by using him as an example to follow, even though you know you could never be perfect as he was perfect, and if you read the bible and pray and if you know right from wrong because of God's word to us which teaches righteousness, you will be persecuted by those who are unbelievers.

Sarah Palin is a godly woman of good character. She's not perfect for noone is, and she doesn't claim to be. But, she is honest, sincere, and has values that are upright. She is wise , gifted,and has virtue.The bible teaches that God lives within the believer. He dwells within them. Jesus said, "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. Because you are my child, the world hates you. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they would obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name. For they do not know the one who sent me. "John 15:18-21

I hope she is planning a run for the presidency. She will have my vote if she does.

Then maybe you should have chosen some other Nation besides a Christian one to live in. Because those of us who are Christians in this Christian nation want to live according to the moral standards of God as written in his word. Not that we want to enforce them ALL on everyone, for that would be iompossible, but when there is a controversial issue that is before us all, we should consider what God has to say about it when making any laws that have to do with it. Religion is about morality, and laws for people must uphold moral standards.

This is far from a xtian nation!!

Perhaps you've heard of a little doctrine about separation of church and state?

In this day and age it makes me queasy to think that so-called intelligent adults still believe in the invisible man that sees all and knows all.

I'll be damned if those crazies are going to think they run this country as well.

Oh boy, here we go again with PG's lengthy, SELECTIVE historical "writings" about the fallacy of the separation of church and state idea. Our founding fathers, blah, blah, blah.

I would love to have one thread not morph into religion or our founding fathers.

Spare us PG: we've seen it all before.

Pattygreen can speak on any topic she wants wherever she wants. We all have to "stay on topic". At least that was what I was reprimanded for....not staying on topic. Pattygreen, gets to say what she likes regardless of topic. I haven't seen one reprimand about topic for her although darn near every day she vears off into never never land. My bad, not NNL but "stay on topic".

Stay on topic? Sarah Palin has been a has-been since last November.

She's a joke and we'll never see her running for national office again.

What is there to say about her that matters?

Every thread started by patty is a thread that was started so that she can pontificate to her little heart's content. Don't burst her bubble by telling her she's off subject. Religion is the center of her every thought. It helps take her guilt away.

Then stay clear of the threads I post on, because my life revolves around God and I could never cease to speak of Him. :blushing:

No. Every thread that was started by me is of interest to me. I can't turn my face to the facts that every issue in life can be solved if people would turn from their desire to live without God ruling in their lives. It's quite disheartening when He gives us the answer to every controversial issue in debate and yet people don't want to hear his answers or even look into them.

bjean, and what guilt are you speaking of that these threads help to take away?

See what I mean? I rest my case.

If we participate on patty's threads we are pandering to her pontificating. It's on us. We know, by experience, what she's up to. So either we put up with it or we don't play into it by getting sucked into posting on her threads. Every time we make a statement, it is another opportunity for her to do her thang.

I get into it with her because sometimes I find it fun and educational and it makes me feel better when I can punch holes in her logic. Why do you post on her threads?

Then stay clear of the threads I post on, because my life revolves around God and I could never cease to speak of Him. :blushing:

Then start a new forum, like I suggested elsewhere, entitled something like: " Pattygreen's biblical interpretations and beliefs" because all your posts eventually get there and get way off topic. And those who wish to debate your ideas about God as it relates to your life could enter that forum.

It's your inability to stay on topic, even the threads you start, that is unfair to those of us who have serious, intelligent, rational contributions.

Otherwise, be honest in the new threads you start and instead of them saying "Why do liberals hate Sarah Palin" entitle it "Why my biblical beliefs allow me to support Sarah Palin". :thumbup:

If she or anyone else does not want to have a rational discussion regarding Palin, then I won't respond. PG's radical rantings are fun but tiresome, especially when she hasn't learned anything from them and disguises the thread with faux debating and religious rhetoric which has nothing to do with Palin and her hilarious intro into the political landscape. Now that Palin's book has went by the wayside, maybe she will start her bid for 2012. I for one am waiting with a yearning boarding on the pychotic for her to announce. I will have many stories beyond the obvious for my dinner parties..........

We democrats hope that Palin runs in 2012. She is the gift that keeps on giving. She is her own punchline.

Cleo'sMom and tdslf1, you peeps are the best.

Cleo'sMom and tdslf1, you peeps are the best.

Thanks :rolleyes2: Right back at ya!

Man, I have missed you guys! ha ha I have been out of the country for the past 2 1/2 weeks on vacation. To answer the question, I post here because being silent has not been good for our country. Our apathy and fear has let Patty Green's people and their agendas become the vocal majority and it must stop now. I am tired of having to explain to people outside of America that we are not ALL like that.

Too many people read these controversial posts because they are designed to get attention. I never ever ever expect PG to learn anything from what I write. But I would rather waste hours responding and pointing out these nonsensical statements than have one innocent person believe Patty's rhetoric.

And NOW for the Sarah Palin statement of the week...

Earth saw clmate chnge4 ions;will cont 2 c chnges.R duty2responsbly devlop resorces4humankind/not pollute&destroy;but cant alter naturl chng

Yeah. The woman that PG wants to become President of the United States posted that message on a public forum (LOLspeak, errors and all)

Here's more:

Fresh off the heels of the Copenhage climate change summit, former governor of Alaska Sarah Palin sent a tweet on the fallacy of climate change. Palin called Copenhagen the "arrogance of man".

"Copenhgen=arrogance of man2think we can change nature's ways.MUST b good stewards of God's earth,but arrogant&naive2say man overpwers nature," said Palin in her Tweet. The comment is posted on her Twitter page.

According to The Hill's Blog Briefing Room, Palin is called a 'denier' by some and had urged U.S. President Obama not to attend the summit.
