Scott…I checked it out a little bit, and of course found conflicting information. But regardless, if Clinton did it, then he’s just as wrong on this issue as Bush is. But I would like to say that just because I’m a democrat doesn’t mean that I agree with everything Bill Clinton does and says. And even more important, just because Clinton did something slimy doesn’t justify Bush doing it also.
I would say in modern context there are many differences between Christianity and EXTREMIST Islam…but it’s not like Christians have a clean history….The Crusades, anyone? hello – talk about a “kill them all” philosophy….
Not trying to pick a fight. But Christians have many skeletons in their closet.
i could not agree with you more and i am a republican (i voted for nixon-twice). your comments show intelligence, commpassion and the ability to think without religious dogma getting in the way. this is the way it used to be and should be-dialogue between people to reach a common ground. the present administration and thinking is that if you don’t agree with me you are an idiot and condemned to hell.
Ad…hey, I just wanted to make sure you were clear on what I was saying because I didn’t want you to get the wrong idea. I wasn’t trying to compare your average Christian to some nutball going around trying to blow him or herself up with no regard for human life. I didn’t mean to suggest that if there is say, a minister preaching that abortion is wrong, it makes them as bad as a terrorist. I was just trying to say that regardless of the source, when you preach hate, it’s dangerous for us all. Hope you didn’t get the wrong idea.
I am willing to admit I am a conservative Republican AND an evangelical Christian. I am also willing to admit that there are a number of nutball preachers out there proclaiming idiotic things (9/11 was a results of our support of gays, killing abortion providers, etc). To me these supposed Christian leaders are as bad as the Islamic ayatollah’s calls for eradication of the western Satan.
Yes there is evil in the world we must fight. However, Jesus taught to love our neighbor as ourself. I can hate your opinions without hating you. I have several gay friends, but do not believe the gay lifestyle was God’s choice for mankind. We all need to take a step back and realize that just because someone does not believe the same things I do, it is not a trigger to destroy that person.

Skeletons, not live ones!
Have a good one.

I agree with you. As long as the facts are correctly reported and not deliberately omitted so as to distort reality.
