If one looks at the best evidence for creation or the beginning.....its the Bible! There has been no other evidence that is better or stronger. Our founders knew that we would serve one of the two, God or Govt. They also knew from experience that if it was to be Govt., there would never be true liberty and freedom. So they made sure to include God in all of our founding documents and also made religion and moraility our two Pillars of Strength. Even the Atheist founders agreed with that notion because of history in Europe, Russia, Asia and elsewhere. They wanted something new and different. They chose Liberty and Freedom for all mankind with our rights granted from God. That is the only way to stop MAN from taking over the federal govt. and taking over mankind. The Govt. serves and protects us and are subservient to us. They work for us. This experiment has created the most productive, free and prosperous society in world history! There is no other way. Its been a blessing to be born here and be raised here. I pray that we recognize our history and expose the threats to it also, from the growth of progressivism. Cant we all just stay in the middle? Cant we all just stay where we were about 10 years ago....I want to go back......cant we reverse the natural movement to the left....and just hold her steady for another 100 years or so? Without being divisive and rigid.....i have been studying all other religions in the world and every one of them have something in common.....they all acknowledge the existence of Jesus Christ. They all compliment him and think he was smart and wise! They either believe he was a prophet, teacher, wise man or son of god! Even Atheists believe that he walked the earth! So if there have been about 60-70 billion people after Christ, and about %90 of them believe that Jesus walked this earth, and most of them believe he was tortured and hung on a cross, ISNT THAT ENOUGH to praise him? Even if he is just a hero to you.....isnt that enough to praise him? I know one thing.....if you put anything above you, you live differently! You live better for the world! Put anything above you and you look at things differently! You treat people with more love and respect! So cant you just put Jesus above you even if he isnt the SON OF GOD? Cant you just put something above you that makes you more responisble for the life you live? At the end of the day.....its only good for society if we all do this! So may God bless Pearl Jam and its fans, USA and its people, and all the world!
Theres no time like the present

A man that stands for nothing....will fall for anything!

All people need to do more on every level!

    Even the Bible, as old as it is, has paragraph breaks. ;)

    I like the positive message in your post.

    okay... how about just worrying about god in YOUR life... why proselytize?

    I ain't buying whatever it is you're selling.
    Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.

    1) That was painful to read and follow
    2) Bring "god" back to your life if you feel he/it/she is missing
    3) Our world would be better off if organized religion vanished forever.

    (I agree Jesus was a person. But he was nothing more than that)

    Man 8 years. Thats a long bid. I did 6. Went public in Jr/Sr High. Not so lucky for my 3 older brothers. They all had to do 12 year bids. None of them go to church now either.

    Your post made me cry ...

    it is lovely whatever one's beliefs are ... your joy and enthusiasm your words
    touching

    I watched the 3 hour series about Jesus over the holiday ...
    not a Bible story but based in history and fact

    Who Was Jesus on the Discovery Channel

    Your words like this series. Moving.

    Jesus has been special to me all my life and I am not a religious person.
    He was an amazing man, one to honor whether he was only a man.


    Thank you! :D

    If there is a god, he doesn't care about what man-made national borders you live in and I'd appreciate it if I didn't have to hear about god from anyone. If someone wants to believe, that's great, just keep it to yourself and stop trying to proselytizing the world.

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    I agree that organized religion is a big problem with MANS RULES which is why i seek and carry out a RELATIONSHIP with TRINITY! The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit that resides in me! It works great for me and if everyone gave it a shot.....it would work great for them too!

    Yes - when you tie things like foreign humanitarian aid towards medicines and clinics based on practices which don't coincide with your religious beliefs (ie, abortions or birth control), like our nation does in Africa, then it is a form of proselytizing.

    I never told anyone to not personally believe or enjoy it themselves, I merely stated I don't like when people project their beliefs on others.. that's all this post is. If you enjoy it, great... I personally do not.

    I never claimed you couldn't use free speech to say what you want, I simply claimed I didn't like it and explained why. Free Speech isn't around to protect the opinions you agree with, it's their to protect the one's you don't.

    An old, but still-relevant response…

    Religion is like a penis. It's fine to have one and it's fine to be proud of it, but please don't whip it out in public and start waving it around... and please don't try to shove it down my child's throat.

    The Great John F. Kennedy (Democrat) said "And yet the same revolutionary belief for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe-the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God."

    Im sorry but to think that God doesnt know about good nations on this earth is very naive! I believe our country is blessed from God! I also believe that God knows what man will do and what nations will do here on earth! He is above you and your pay-grade!
