God could be looking at this in another way

I am an evangelical Christian and have been all of my life and love the Lord deeply. I have been observing this election and listening to various opinions. As I read the articles and various opinions on this website I find that everyone is "not" favorable toward Obama being President. Now what I am about to say will probably upset most of you, but I believe God is looking at this in another way. There has been many apologies and repentance to the African Americans and that's good but I am sensing that God is going to use Barack Obama to see if the apologies and true repentance is really real. Abortions(which is a crucial area of concern) are not just with babies but with any human life or lives that have been taken before their time, including slavery (I am from a mixed family so I have some room to talk from both sides). I know, you are upset already, but God does work like this. I will prophesy to you now, that Barack Obama will be the next President whether for good or bad. He is God's man for the hour. Remember in the Bible Cyrus was God's man, he really wasn't God fearing, Nebuchaddnezer was God's man when Jeremiah prophesied to Israel. God does use unlikely people to accomplish his purposes. He may put him in to judge our hearts here in the U.S., I don't know, but carefully consider what I am saying. This is going to happen.

I Timothy 3 does NOT speak to being leader of a country. If it does, please explain. I do, however, think that she should be at home raising her children since she still has children in the home. That is the fact that disqualifies her.

Chuck Baldwin doesn't have a chance to win so you will still get evil in the White House and probably NOT the lesser of the two evils. Your vote for Baldwin (is he even on the ticket?) will, in essence, be a vote FOR Obama, the WORST of the two evils. You'd better think good and hard about your decision. (A non-vote is ALSO a vote for Obama.)

McCain/Palin best option

With all respect, the way one supports a type of hunting wild animals is irrelevant to this campaign when compared to the number of innocent HUMAN BABIES B. Hussein Obama will continue to KILL! We need to vote for what is right in God's eyes and the murder of humans at any age is wrong!
I will vote for the people that will protect life both here and overseas and defend our freedom to worship the One True God, Jesus in spirit and truth! Not one who will usher in the radical Muslim agenda to destroy America!

cry for the wolves

The poster displays the typical PETA mentality of gross Biblical ignorance, more concerned about a marauding pack of wolves encroaching on a farm or populated area, than on millions murdered by abortion. Which do you think God is more concerned about killing varmints, or unborn humans? As humans we have been given dominion over the earth including the animals. Whether it's killing a fox in the henhouse, rodents in the barn, or wolves on the ranch, it's a necessity in this fallen world to take care of the vermin causing crop loss or other destruction, so that we may provide for ourselves, and others.

Just who is God's VP??

Obama Bin Biden supports ALL abortions. Your whining about some dog cruelty is worthless next to the abortion issue. Get your priorities straight and take what you can get with a potential VP that will actually FIGHT against the pro abortion crowd. After that, then take the lead and start a campaign against the dog shooting.
Just out of curiosity, just who do you think is "God's VP"?
Out of the choices I see, Sarah lines up the closest from a Biblical standpoint.

I want to vote for Palin...

I have followed Sarah Palin since shortly after she became governor. Everything about Sarah so far has impressed me greatly. She has performed wonderfully and is an inspiration to men and women. I believe she would make a great vice president and president. I said I would vote for her at first. Yet it pains me, after many days of reflection, that I can't vote for her. I want to. I really do. Because we believe that a mom’s first responsibility is the nurturing of the family, my wife is a stay at home mom. I do believe that women can work outside the home. Some are given great strength and stamina. Sarah evidently has both. And up to the present she appears to have been able to do it all. I believe she has the ability to be governor and have a family. Christians all over are already talking about her running for president. Also with McCain there is the very real possibility she could become president while being VP. Being president is a lot more than being governor. The presidency is more than a full time job. It is a life. Any president can tell of the extraordinary time and effort that goes into it. I cannot convince myself that she could even come close to putting her family first while being president. The time a new born Down syndrome child and a 7 year old daughter need cannot be found in a president’s life. I know that they would be 4 years older before Palin had a chance at the presidency the argument is still the same. I would be a hypocrite to my wife and others if I supported support her candidacy, after all I believe and have espoused about the importance of a mother’s role in a family. I cannot fathom how Palin can uphold the Biblical model of motherhood and be president. I would vote for her if her children were older. Yet sadly I cannot at this time. I 100% believe the country would be better with her in executive position than the opposition, yet I am not called to be a pragmatist. I am called to uphold what I believe is right and Biblical. It is up to the Providence of God to make it work out.

so let me get this straight you beleive because Governor Sarah Palin encourages and supports aerial hunting of wolves you believe she is not Gods choice. Thats the most absurd statement I have heard lately. Are you a liberal democrat? with all of the other possible candidates out there why was she picked. Remember no one can rule with out Gods blessing. And just to fill you in wolf and also coyotes are some of the most brutal hunters ever they will run down there prey till they are exhausted and attack there preys hind legs, bringing them down and then begin to feed while there prey is still alive. I have seen the video. We are stewart of all of Gods creatures and a bullet is much more humane. God has given us dominion over all of the creature to with as we see fit and God rules us all. May God bless you and this great country

You are totally, utterly, and shockingly brainwashed
| Posted On: 09/05/08 03:59:17 PM |
Age 38, FL |
Cruelty to animals is not acceptable. Your story, however, does not ring true. Usually the strongest proponents of conservation are the hunters who know wildlife and their conditions far more than the average urbanite simple because hunters actually go into the bush. Sometimes drastic measure are utilized in wildlife management to support and perpetuate populations of different wildlife. Though cruel to the outsider, some of these practices are essential to the health of wildlife populations, and of course, sometimes the protection of people. Your story sounds like you have been brainwashed by "humanistic" ideas of animal rights. I would challenge you to remove the human attributes from animals and place them onto babies who have not yet been born. As Christians we will face far greater wrath (from God) for electing politician who ignore defenseless un-born babies or even advocate their termination than for electing politician who allow wildlife managers to manage non-human populations for the good of the land, the animals, and the people. Wake up. Smell the rain coming. Who is God's VP? Even if Governor Palin was in the helicopter herself and shooting the wolves to leave the pups to starve to death (highly unlikely since the managerial practice of culling mandates shooting all the animals of one unit - i.e. all the animals in a pack), she would be closer to "God's VP" than a man who holds a position by which he can argue and defend the right to life and decides to vote for the false right of a woman to end her babies life.

I've seen the same footage. Have you ever seen the footage of a late-term abortion? I understand your feelings about the wolves, and won't argue that it's kinder than trapping, or any other means to reduce the population, though, because I don't know what I think. But for some reason it must be necessary, or they wouldn't be doing it at all. What I will suggest to you is that it's far better than delivering a baby, all but the head, and then slamming a pair of scissors into the base of the skull so the brains can be suctioned out. That's MURDER. When I was a hospital employee, I had predetermined that I would walk off the job the day anything like that took place in our facility. I hope this helps you if you're considering voting for those who are for abortion, of any kind! I will be voting PRO-LIFE, and that's certainly not the Dem. ticket. Blessings

The McCain-Palin ticket

We're so pleased and impressed with Sarah Palin, her faith, leadership, courage, and abilities. She seems to bring out the best in a true hero, what it means to be a loyal American, namely, John McCain. They're both Christians, and I think God is giving the voters another chance to keep His hand of protection on our nation. I'm sure there is some environmental reason to reduce the population of wolves in AK, but I disapprove of the hunting them down and shooting them. HOWEVER, I think this become microscopic in the light that Palin is PRO-LIFE, and had her last baby, knowing it would have Down Syndrome. She is doing the right thing by encouraging her daughter to have her baby, and our country needs to see that true Christianity still exists in this country! We'll vote for the Republican ticket, and pray they win. The alternative is unthinkable. Blessings

convenient change of attitude
| Posted On: 09/05/08 12:01:30 PM |
Age 37, FL |
I am going to be pegged as a sexist and I don't mind. Please note, I am speaking from a mother's heart... so here it goes....
I am not sure what your opinions and statements have been on the subject of putting Family First and parents putting the needs of their small children ahead of advancement of their career(s) and wallets. However, in general it seems that the "Biblical World View" contingent, whom I often agree with, has easily and conveniently abandoned this principle in hopes of political advancement. My son is 15 years old now, but when he was younger I felt I was forced to abandon him when economics demanded a 60+ hour work week of me. (Now I am blessed to be able to work part time while he is at school.) I believe it is because our modern economic system make it difficult for parents, both Mothers and Fathers, to make the difficult and unpopular choice to set aside their personal desires prestige, power and money for the better part... which is establishing and nourishing our marriages and families. I would give anything to have those years back to "do it right."
Why can't Mrs. Palin postpone her bid for the 2nd most powerful person in the free world to a time when her children are a bit older? I know it is a sacrifice for parents to make but the Bible puts the highest priority on the loyalty and care for the family (by both parents) second only to our committment to God.
How does the "Biblical World View" comunity reconcile this? According to my Biblical World View this seems like an obvious conflict.

To the person who posted about the hunting of the wolves......there is no candidate that is going to do everything that each and every American agrees with. At least Sarah Palin doesn't agree with the inhumane practice of abortion like the other party does. You have to look at the pros and cons of each candidate and decide which one for you has more pros than cons. If you are truly a born-again Christian living by the Word your choice would have to be McCain/Palin.

I have been planning to do a write-in. Obama no way. He stands for things that I find offensive to humanity. McCain? I had serious doubts as to his firm commitment to those things I value. He said it, but I just couldn't feel secure about his position. But, in choosing Sarah Palin as his running mate, he has affirmed his solid support for the values I treasure so deeply. With Gov. Palin on the ticket, I am confidently and enthusiastically voting for McCain/Palin.
