    My reply to CTB, you sir, twisted the entire thread. You first said this...

    Are you not at all interested in how other parts of the world view the US.

    That is the statement I responded to. You can try and change it to me not wanting to share the gospel with the world, but your original statement gives you away. And it is up for the entire world to see. You only brought the gospel when you knew you couldn't win the argument.

    Shame on you for twisting my words. You are not worth talking to. And I am going to report your post as offensively dishonest.

    No need to report it, Bro. Curtis. I see it.

    And yes, calling the former President a "frat boy" was all I needed to see - didn't need to read the article. Don't care what other nations think of me or the US.

    Don't need to know other cultures to spread the Gospel, either. The Gospel doesn't need any help. Present the Gospel and people will respond to the Holy Spirit - no US domestic or foreign policy is needed for help with the Gospel.

    I totally agree that we don't need any US or foreign policies to help spread the Gospel.

    I will take exception to your statement that "[You] Don't need to know other cultures to spread the Gospel". We find examples in scriptures of exactly the opposite. A prime example is when Paul spoke to the people in Athens about the "unknown god". Knowing their culture he was able to present the Gospel in a way that they would more easily understand.

    Agree with your example, Matt. But missionaries have gone into foreign countries for years preaching the Gospel without knowing the cultures.

    Back to the OP....

    The rhetoric of CrabbyBoy...:laugh: Really...with all due respect I'm not sure of his true age. I think that picture might be a ploy...But if not then I say "Good day, Sir. I said GOOD DAY, SIR!" :wavey:

    Amen!

    The article (no I didn't read it) is one person's opinion and certainly does not reflect my view of the legacy that President Bush leaves.

    I would like to thank President Bush for serving our country for the past eight years and keeping abortion at bay...as best he could. He had a lot to deal with and I believe he did it to the best of his ability and did it admirably.

    Calling a former president "frat boy" is disrespectful, to say the least.
