Common sense thoughts on what happened in the election

[SteyrAUG]

Rush probably said it best today, " It's had to beat Santa Clause in a nation full of children."

That may be the most astute summary of an election that I have ever heard.

While I personally agree, let me moderate this:

As more people turn from the moral values that the Bible teaches, the more our nation will go on a downward spiral.

There are lots of good, fine, moral people, including on M4C, who don't personally believe in God or the Bible. But their lives are in tune with the morality of the Bible. They reject the Bible because they don't believe in God, not because they don't believe in being moral.

Thou shalt not commit murder
Thou shalt not commit adultery
Thou shalt not covet
etc

If they were worded differently, but with the same meaning, these people would whole heartedly agree.

It is not about legislating these: it is about living these and setting the example for others.

So, while I personally agree with you, I think we need to include our brothers and sisters who do not share the religious beliefs, but do share the belief in morality.

You know. We often disagree on things. This is not one of those times..

I really can't stand listening to Rush, but that is an awesome quote.

Overlay a "city lights" US map, or a population density map, and I'm about 1000% sure it would match up nearly exactly.

Who is John Galt?

Who is Henry Bowman?

Its the kids and the racial minorities. Simple as that.

Please be civil and rational in this thread.

Irony?

Irony?

None. It is called personal opinion. A flag flown upside down means that you or your property is in distress. That is how I feel about our country. If you think the country is doing well, then that is your opinion, but isn't mine.
