every once in a while, you read an article that really puts it all together (or spot on, as some would say).
ever on the fringe,.
Pew Research poll results today. 53% of the US thinks the Feds are a threat to their personal freedom/rights.
It's moving from the fringe to the political center.

This doesn't really make sense. That 53% doesn't mistrust the same aspects of the Federal Government. In some cases, the lunatics are actually part of the Government, so to say that the populace doesn't trust them, is perfectly reasonable and mainstream.

go and read it again at acts 5: 11. ananias and sapphira drop dead at peter's feet for "playing false to god/holy spirit" by not giving all of the money to peter that they got from a field they sold.
ananias and sapphira were christians.
they wanted to help the poor and so sold one of their possessions, a field, and gave most of the money to peter.
Well it isn't you or I or anyone else that made me an atheist. I did not choose to be. I couldn't make myself an atheist. Knowledge and experience did.
seems they liked using that fallacy a lot--.
president obama has an, at times, well-deserved reputation for delivering his speeches well.
certainly, the president made an impression today when he delivered his second inaugural address calling for a bolder, more expansive government that would be committed increasingly to the principles of liberalism, with characteristic soaring rhetoric.. unfortunately, another characteristic was also in evidence in obama's speech: namely, his tendency to argue against positions that nobody holds (and by extension, to mischaracterize his opponents' views so as to make them easier to argue against).
Point out the lie? - how about: I will close Gitmo on my very first day as president?
As usual, this is not quite accurate, nor is it quite a lie. But it is a broken promise. I certainly count it against him and his administration.
Although this has nothing to do with the OP.

The only person who can 'make' you an atheist is yourself.
Hogwash. No one can make anyone an atheist.

So lets take a vote-
Is it OK for Obama to LIE, as long as it fits your social agenda?
Point out the lie, give evidence , and I will vote.

The Blaze Moshe??? Really?
Obama is terrible for this country, and no I am not a Republican! I voted for him the first time. His policies are terrible and will cripple future generations with debt. He is trying to focus on raising taxes, when the focus should have been on cutting spending. All they are doing is kicking the can down the road! He might be a good person and all, but no president has any real power anyway. They are puppets for the people who are really pulling the strings in this world. Democrat or Republican, they both are programmed to @#$% us over, its just a matter of how you like to get #$%@ed! Drones, unsanctioned wars, eroding away at our freedoms, now this gun control B.S.!!! Keep on drinking the kool-aid!!!
Let's see, he is terrible for this country and yet he has no power. How does that work?
