Well, if you see it, it's worth voting for. I haven't watched it yet, but I might now just to watch Obama stutter and Romney show a love of country. We should have a President that wants us to be better, not worse.

This thread... I can't tell if it made me want to play more, or less. I tried this out on someone else's account, but I'm not sure if it's right for me. So I'm still on the fence here. Oh well.

Freedom of Religion in Religion JoeUser Forums

The government’s got it wrong. For a while now, there has been a push to redefine what freedom of religion means. Freedom of religion comes from the following: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." Here’s what people s

I don't believe it is Islam. But in the end it doesn't matter. We can only serve one of two masters. Period. But, being an evangelical Christian at heart, (that's right I said it!) I do understand the faith concern. I love my Mormon friends,

Anybody who can look at Mormonism and believe in it is not fit to lead a country. Some might say that for Christianity as well, but at least our holy book is the same as it was thousands of years ago. Since the 1850's, they've had to edit theirs 4000 times. It was said to be a perfect book but it has spelling and grammar issues. Joseph Smith's revelation included polygamy but they have backed away from it. They believe their 'perfect book&#

That's just it though. A lot of Muslims, and here's the real point, don't believe in honor killing either, because they're not really all that Muslim. They may even go through the motions. Maybe they don't really believe in all of their holy writings. After all, if Allah's mind changed before, maybe it's changed again. Should we really be honor killing? Meanwhile, here in America, we have churches with pastors with obvious

You know, I'm not sure how to vote yet. I'm not really happy with Romney, but I am not happy with Obama. There must be a third party candidate, but that would just split the Romney vote... is it worth it to vote for a third party?

My take is that there's a lot of Muslims out there who are only about as Muslim as a lot of Christians are Christian.

The movie was terrible, because I can totally see how awesome that plot line could have been over multiple seasons of little adventures.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="18" id="3227686"]I don't hold the media responsible for the behavior their readers. They exist to maximize page views. It's not their job to be "Fair". It's up to readers not to be total morons. The Trayvon Martin case is such a good example of that. You can blame NBC's editing all you want but people flipped out with virtually no data to go on. I used to have a lot of faith in the judgment of the average person and therefore cared about

Reply to Religion of peace update: Libya in Politics JoeUser Forums

Islam - their god, Allah, told the prophet, Mohammed, when he had 20 converts, that he should not try to convert people by force... then, when he had gone and gotten himself a following, with 10,000 warriors, Allah changed his mind apparently and decided that force was the way to convert people. Now, we can compare this to the God of the Bible. God of the Bible has an army of tens of thousands, and tells all but 300 soldiers to go home, because HE wants the glory from

It's a tragedy. But it's also a lot more than that. Yeah, I get it. It was an unspeakable horror perpetrated on our society that had nothing to do with us and everything to do with their beliefs. Our President shouldn't be apologizing for making them do anything. Their belief system says to do it. Of course, it also says NOT to do it.

I don't know that I find it fascinating, more ludicrous and quite bizarre. For mine, it is just as pathetic as walking by a bar, hearing there's a bar room brawl in progress an
