Southern Baptists are Christians. Christians are those who believe in Christ. nm

I think as Christians we can use Santa Claus
As a witness if we want to. I feel that Santa is a fun part of Christmas but of course we should not forget the REAL reason for the season. We can give to others to show the love of Christ, Him giving His life for us. It is all about how you look at it and show it to others. God Bless you all and have a Blessed Christmas :)
P.S. A very good way to witness is through WorldVision. They have a wonderful gift catalog that I used for Christmas presents. You can purchase a wheelchair for a child in another country, childcare for orphans, etc.
True Christians do not do this, that's why I jump all over them. LOL
A true Christian does not feel the need to preach nor should they.
Only the ones trying to recruit through brainwash do the preaching
:)
I have nothing against Christians, just why do you feel the need to advertise...
wherever you go? That is what most people don't like. Sort of like how gay people are always advertising their sexual preference. You don't see heterosexuals doing that. Much like you don't see very religious Catholics doing this.
Do you think it makes you even more Christian-like if you advertise it and preach about it? Well, it doesn't. If you were really secure with your faith, you actually wouldn't need to do it at all.
So to us, it sort of makes you just as obnoxious as the gay guys making out in public in Miami.
:)
Well, yes only Christians because you have to swear on the Bible. How can you sm
swear on something that you don't even believe in?
Besides, the latest polls show that 80+% of Americans believe that they are Christians. That's a huge majority.
Also, if they were not Christians and were running, I would certainly like to know their personal values and what their value system is based on if it isn't the Bible. Again, they swear in on the Bible, that's not just opinion.
Southern Baptists are Christians...nm

And the facts are also that there are Christians and pedophiles and (sm)
people who have premarital sex, and people who are Nuns and people who do drugs. Do we take them on field trips for all of those too?
As Christians we are called to serve others. That's what we are supposed to do. nm

Yeah, afraid of pushy christians.
uh isn't he YOUR president too? LOL
had to watch soapnet to stay on top of soap operas IF we wanted to watch back then.
and isn't he your president too? you said that like it's MY fault he's president.....I had ZIPPO to do with it......*ROFL*
And when a Democrat is president....

Maybe she'll run for President
Our most honorable President
I think it is a tremendous job he is doing so far. Hooray for his actions concerning the navy SEAL team. I just took a survey on CNN and it was asking how many consider what Obama said about glimmer of hope and seeing things turned around and 64 something to 40 something felt the same glimmer. I am truly glad he is there instead of what it could have been, YIKES!
Will let other share the present president...
…Now he is 1 that I will change the channels on, always something better to watch such as the cooking shows, animal shows. I knew the election outcome but after that and the flubbs, such as his war and Katrina, other folks can have him as their own. Being as I have never watched the "soaps" don’t have a clue as to what is preemptied there but I have choices here at home and I simply watch what I want to.
President Kennedy hearse
How can someone bid on the Kennedy hearse? What a wonderful world do we live in!
Yeah, out of the country since O became president.

Well, I'm a taxpayer and taxpayers pay the president.
Yes, the Obamas have "other" income, whatever. The fact remains that it falls to our prez and his family to set an example for the rest. How can O preach fiscal responsibility as he has been and yet his family spends money so frivolously? We are in the midst of a depression and she is wearing $500 pair of shoes! People are being laid off and 401k's are being decimated. Those who have retired are having to go back to work and she is wearing a $500 pair of shoes!
Do you get it now? It's not whether the money is hers to spend, its about not practicing what you're preaching. It's about struggling Americans trying to make ends meet and president saying "I feel your pain" when obviously he has no freaking clue what our pain is.
It's just one load of manure after another with the O admin.
Who is on the $10 bill? According to two seven year olds, it's President...(sm)
George Clooney!! Ha!! My daughter said it the other day, and tonight I heard her friend say the same thing. They sat in the back seat of the car arguing with my 10-year-old that they were absolutely sure. My son, also slightly misinformed said, "George Clooney is a comedian" to which my daughter's friend replied, "No, a comedian is someone who works with animals." These really are pretty smart kids most of the time - but I got a huge kick out of their "facts" tonight! HA!
Is President Bush visiting our site?
Sorry, just got me giggling.
No you wouldn't. But some women would. The PTA president last night (sm)
came up and put her hand on his knee and thanked him for offering his information about the school's sound system. Then they exchanged phone numbers. He's not a bad looking guy. So someone will want him. Not you, and not me.
Africa's 1st female president was elected in 2006.
(January of 2006) "Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has been sworn in as Liberia's president, making her Africa's first elected female leader.
Loud cheers greeted her inauguration, with US First Lady Laura Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice among those at the ceremony.
Mrs Johnson-Sirleaf says her top challenge is to maintain peace, law and order after 14 years of civil war."
