    Seems to be a new theme with Romney supporters.

    Lets look at this logically. To this point, this poster has argued against Romney because he is a false god worshipper, and we the people are supporting a false god worshipper. Now, he posts are article that has a bishop (a false god worshipper) order a priest (another false god worshipper) to read anti-Obama literature.

    So, in the first instance it is wrong to vote for Romney because he is a false god worshipper, but in the second case, it is acceptable for a false god worshipper to read anti-Obama literature, or be pro Romney. So which is it?

    And your problem with this is what, exactly?

    ...Or are you trolling again?

    Zaac thinks that saying that a vote for Obama is a vote for abortion is "a new theme"?

    Whaa??? :rolleyes:

    Since you've said that you are not voting for Obama or Romney why do you keep beating this drum? Since you're also planning to vote, why aren't you spending at least some of your time here at BB lending support to your candidate of choice?

    Can you tell us why you're supporting your choice of candidate?

    If you can't or won't that leaves us with few choices as to how to view the fruit you bear in the name of our Lord. I can't speak for anyone else. All the fruit I've seen so far is akin to sour grapes and rotten apples. Instead of focusing on the negatives of the candidates that you oppose, how about showing the positives of the person who has earned your vote. What good fruit does he or she bear that, in turn, is a good witness of yours, as well?

    The Bishop has that right. Additionally, obama and the Demoncrats stepped over the line when they passed the obamacare law which destroys the religious freedom of our Constitution, not just for Catholics, but for all people of faith.

    Exactly!

    If that much was accomplished in his first 3+ years, where will people of faith stand if he has a total of 8 years to finish what has been started.

    Zaac, will you still have the freedom to say what you want to say to those who don't share your beliefs 4 years from now, if Obama gets a second term? If you don't toe the line, then, you'll have more to worry about than "cliques" and moderators on an Internet forum.

    With the monitoring and tracking already in place on the Internet, there's little left to be done to muzzle you and everyone else who doesn't agree with the powers to be on any subject. If Internet users don't conform to what's considered to be "politically correct" whether it's global warming, faith, or colors of doors according to county code, we will be shut down or worse.

    Will you or your pastor be put in jail for reading the Holy Scriptures aloud to anyone who doesn't believe that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Saviour? Think it can't happen? Think again.

    Yes, what is the point of this post? Just another example of the muddled writing ability of Zaac.

    Or to quote him directly:

    zaac is just trying to confuse everyone, voter suppression in disguise.

    Frankly I agree with what the Bishop said. Those who vote democrat are supporting the continued slaughter of the innocents. I am not going to argue that Romney and the Republicans will necessarily change anything but they can eliminate Obamacare with its funding of abortions and its death panel!

    Who is gonna stop me?:laugh:

    I'm not worried about the clique's and moderators now.

    This is funny because you speak as though I have to follow the clique outside the board because the "government mods" say so. It doesn't work in here so it certainly ain't gonna work out there.

    God's truth will be made known. And nothing short of death will stop me from making it known.

    So you and some of the others rally around evil and think that it's gonna stop evil from doing what you speak of. I'm standing firmly in opposition of all evil with Jesus Christ as my spokesperson. The only way to shut me up will be the way they thought they shut Him up.

    DO you honestly think that I care if this happens? Some of you need to get outside the United States. Maybe if this started happening in the United States, the remnant would become more serious about preaching Jesus crucified and resurrected.

    People die everyday for preaching Jesus and His truth. Ain't no way I'm gonna be bullied into voting for evil just because another brand of evil may decide to send me to jail down the road for preaching the Gospel.

    Bring it on!!!

    And if this is the rationale for why some are voting for "the lesser of two evils", then God help us.

    Don't most of you approve of churches preaching politics?

    Check out the obama FEMA camps and the children, obama brown shirts. You can google it.

    4 more years of obama and free speech will be a thing of the past. Right now, preaching against homosexuality is considered a "hate crime."

    Thanks for sharing this. I now have a little more respect for this Catholic Bishop because of his strong pro-life stance and challenging his priest and their parishioners to remember their stance on the sanctity of life and the assault that Obama care, in this case, presents on religious liberties.

    Good job brother bishop Jenky.

    And this affects my ability to preach the Gospel how? So what if it's against the law to preach against homosexuality? That doesn't stop me from preaching the Gospel.

    All I'm hearing is a bunch of folks scared about what they think the government is gonna do if they don't support a certain candidate. But who also don't seem to be too scared about what God will do about them supporting that which is against Him.

    Matthew 10:28
    And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

    Zaac, I am not scared. And I voted for Mitt Romney with a clear conscience, as will others here have done and will do, no matter what you think. I stand before the Lord at the bema seat, and not you. PTL!!! And you better PTL that you don't stand before me, as well.

    But when you continue on your high horse of pomposity, you are bound to fall. PRIDE goeth before a fall.

    I deleted my rolling eyes in my previous post because I felt they were out of line and I try to moderate myself, as well, lest I tell you what I REALLY think. :laugh:

    So take it from an old Granny who has lived a few more years on this planet than you have lived, PRIDE does go before a fall. I have seen it happen too many times among people who felt that were spiritually superior than others in their "walk."

    Funny thing about this life, God sometimes has away of bringing us to our knees, even when we think we have "arrived."

    Yet the very horse you tell me to get off you seem to be proudly riding every day.

    And yes PRIDE does go before a fall. And that's why this country deserves to fail in the face of prideful Christians endorsing that which is against God because their "sacrificial" orchestrated methods of reaching a conclusion is perceived in their minds to better than the one reached by obedience.

    So yes, we will be brought to our knees.

    You should listen to LE. She's one of the more politically-wise people here.

    And you should be a bit more respectful to your elders, Junior.


    Given your attitude that America ought to fall, do you think you deserve to live here, and if so why?
