Colin,I have been wanting to ask you for a while,What type of church or affliation do you represent?And how many people do you have in your congregation.Some of your remarks have troubled me,I dont see you as a peace keeper.

Ask and yea shall be answered.....
I knew it would be different,and I do like the last prayer on your prayer list.
Now I have to ask,Why the rush to Armageddon.?
And Jesus said blessed are the peacekeepers,not the war mongers.

Armageddon?
I'm not worried. I have my duct tape and plastic sheeting. Oh yes a case of Bud and some good friends too. It will be alright.
BTW isn't there a new prohpet just about every week declaring the end is near?

KatyD, My moon is not made of cheese.lol
And I certainly don't find the thought that the US is dispersing nerve gas across the world "comforting".
But I deal with reality, not fantasy.

Yeah, Junquemama, but there are plenty of phrases in the Bible where it says "Go kick their asses!" Well, that's paraphrasing.... I think "smite their asses" is more accurate. But same thing. LoL!

KatyD,LOL I think it was the Old Testament where all the arse kicking was going on,.(Wipeing out populations of non believers),After Jesus I dont think so.Maybe Im wrong, but Im pretty sure he told his followers to preach love not war..

Ohh,give me a break,Blesssed are the peace keepers,We the USA are the peacekeepers,preserving the Integerty of the middle east by taking out Saddam,we are one step closer to keeping sanity out there.Peace is somtime obtained by force,thats the way it is,read the bible alot,alot of war is within the pages.

I think we'll have to file these deadly non-leathal gas claims in the same file as the streets of Kabul being paved with dead woman and children when the US attacked.

>Helen, Believe what ever makes you happy. That's your right as an American. You can thank President Bush for that.
and
>Helen, Your freedom to disagree.
You have GOT to be joking, Colin!
Our rights do not come from the State or heads of State!
"WE hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness -- That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed"
Does that sound in the least bit familiar to you? It ought to! That is the premise upon which our Rights are founded upon! And yet, everytime that there is a protest, the media is always quoting Bush saying that "it's OK for them to protest" like as if HE has any right to hand out democracy to us or our Rights! Shame on him! And the other Nazis running around with him do the same thing! Shame on them as well! This is AMERICA - not Nazi Germany!
