Official rhetoric has helped fuel an escalation of tension between the United States and Iran. Do recent negotiations mark a change in direction, or just a temporary detour from the highway to military attack?
Comments
Just because you say so? Who says they don't donate monely?
They should have simply and openly mocked Christianity.
Is there a point in here somewhere?
I would say that when the government requires that an insurance company pay for birth control, which you;ve cleverly called "preventative health measures" one can infer that condoms are a part of this.
Just me.
Oh, and I don't agree with what he said about mandatory condom use. Soe, we will rachet my agreement back to 90%.
I agree wholeheartedly here.
Here is the current Ohio law...
§3503.16(B)(1)(a) and 3505.18(A)(1)
All voters must provide to election officials at the polling place on the day of an election proof of the voter's identity. Also applies to voters requesting and voting an absentee ballot.
Current and valid photo identification, defined as a document that shows the individual’s name and current address, includes a photograph, includes an expiration date that has not passed, and was issued by the U.S. government or the state of Ohio
Current utility bill
Current bank statement
Current government check, paycheck or other government document
A voter who has but declines to provide identification may cast a provisional ballot upon providing a social security number or the last four digits of a social security number. A voter who has neither identification nor a social security number may execute an affidavit to that effect and vote a provisional ballot. A voter who declines to sign the affidavit may still vote a provisional ballot.
Observations/Questions:
According to the article, he declined to use a provisional ballot; he was "perturbed".
What happens when he shows up at an airport? Should he be allowed on a plane? Why? Why not?
Should anyone be allowed to just roll up to a polling place and vote? Why? Why not?
Funny, I thought Jesus was about the spirit of the law, not the letter.
You should check out Matthew 5-7. It's in the Bible...first book in what is called the "New Testament".
"Graham's thinking is dangerous."
That quote speaks for itself.
If it is really about money, people have donated more over the last day than Komen gave in a year.
But, it's not, is it.
I'm sorry, did you call me "thin-skinned"?
Boringly predictable. You know me...a "refusal to progress".
"I will not exaggerate others' beliefs nor make unfounded prejudicial assumptions based on labels, categories, or stereotypes. I will always extend the benefit of the doubt."
I predict that the articles will all say something like, "If only modern conservatives were like Reagan, Ford, et al..."
This is where Sojo embarks on a number of blog posts which will fail to follow every aspect of its so-called "community covenant."
(Not so) Stunningly predictable.
Like...wield the sword?
Because that's government's imperative according to Romans 13.
"tries to end immoral and illegal wars"
By sending planes to Libya and soldiers to Uganda. Oh...Gitmo is still open and we're still fighting in Afghanistan.
"we have a moral obligation to spend the money to help veterans injured as they fought for our country"
Which is it...immoral and illlegal, or for our country?
"Obama recognizes the need to build roads and bridges"
I think you mean "shovel ready." 3 years in...name one road or bridge built because of Obama.
"Obama is the only hope..."
I thought the only hope was in Jesus' blood and righteousness.
"between Jupiter and Pluto."
Pluto? No longer a planet.
"We Christians must be cautious in applying our beliefs to other people,"
Does that apply to economic "injustice" issues as well?
Duplicate.
What happened? They've posted the same article for the past 2 weeks. Notice that their comment count has been drastically reduced? Even their normal readers are sick of it.
My response was worthy of such a comical and unsurprising conclusion. Rather than actually challenge the status quo, Sojourners has become a joke...a totally predictable joke.
"Blame the Republicans."
Wow...I'm shocked by your conclusion.
Donna...this is not Egypt.
"the US military, were to invade Canada."
I think you mean Australia.
Oh, the Nobel Prize as measuring tool. Let's see...
Guantanamo Bay? Still open.
War on Libya? Check.
Soldiers to Uganda? Check.
Marines to Australia? Check.
Continued drone attacks in the ME and NE Africa? Check.
Americans killed without due process? Check.
Yep...well deserved.
Nope. Jesus.
Which is what I said at the beginning.
