There are "non-religious" folks who don't agree with
--
No I'm not and I know homosexuality
is not a religion. All I'm saying is that religion has become so controversial with more and more people who refuse God's teachings and do not want their kids exposed to it that God has been taken out of the schools. Well, homosexuality is just as controversial and not everyone accepts this lifestyle and certainly those who don't accept it do not want their children taught in school that homosexuality is okay. It is my job as a parent to talk to my child about this and teach tolerance but not acceptance and for the school to undermine my authority and teach acceptance of homosexuality, especially to children as young as 5, is just as bad as the school preaching about God to children when atheists don't want their kids hearing about God. They are both two very controversial subjects that should not be taught at school.
I find homosexuality
offensive. I do not deny that. I do not impose my beliefs on anyone. You may do as you choose. The homosexual community is trying to impose their way of thinking on the rest of the world. Have you been sleeping? I do not need your link about Sodom and Gomorrah. Lack of hospitality... What a hoot..
I believe homosexuality is wrong but for sm
goodness sake, I don't think the homosexuals are all by themselves responsible for someone stopping Bible study in a home.
I will tell you what has taken away our freedoms and that is, we as Christians, who have sat on our butts for too long and let our rights be taken away! We have not been proactive enough.
Geeze next you will be saying the illegals caused some idi** to want to stop Bible study in the home.
Again I think the lifestyle is wrong and a sin against God, Christianity and the Bible, but you are little paranoid don't you think?
Homosexuality is a sickness of the mind.

So now you're likening homosexuality..(sm)
to smoking dope and murder? What planet are you from?
So now you're likening homosexuality to ...(sm)
a crime. Beyond the obvious lunacy of your ideas, there is the fact that gays and lesbians are NOT treated equal by just putting them in a corner. They deserve the same rights as everyone else.
How about if we say that you can be a christian, but your religion willl not be recognized unless you live in a certain area? You cannot demonstrate your faith in any manner because children might see you and get the wrong impression. You can live with other christians, but you will not be afforded the same rights afforded to other communities. Does this sound fair to you?
Homosexuality is not about historicial facts...... sm
it is about theological facts. So that makes the Bible a relevant source since it is the gold standard for theology.
Seeing as homosexuality is not a religion - see message
It SHOULD be taught in schools as an accepted lifestyle. They teach sex education in school, safe sex, etc, why wouldn't they teach about homosexuality? Maybe if it was taught earlier on we wouldn't have so many hate crimes against the gay and lesbian people.
Christianity, Mormonism, Lutherans, Catholicism, Buddism, etc are all religions and DO NOT belong in the schools. That is why there are churches. Unless you send your child to a religious school there is no reason for religion to be taught in schools.
Christians (not all) do force their beliefs on non-believers. In the community I just moved from my aunt and uncle were huge church goers (aunt is secretary, uncle creates a flyer). They have bible studies at different peoples home two and three times a week. In those bible studies they say some prayers, and then they get out their map of the city to discuss who is going to work what area to knock on doors, and be in the stores to approach unsuspecting people who are not in the church and "push" their religion onto them. When we first moved to the community we were approached by a lady from their church, who approached us with questions about our beliefs. When we told her we prefer to keep our religious viewpoints to ourselves, she then stood and proceeded to tell us her faith was the right path to follow and she is doing the work of the Lord, blah, blah, blah. We kept trying to get away and not be rude, but she was holding our hands and proceeded to tell us if we didn't believe we were sinners and would blah, blah, blah (think you get the message). After she was through with us she then proceeded to corner some other "poor souls" and do the same thing to them. When we had someone come out to hook up our cable, he happened to be from their church and began to preach to us. Their whole purpose they said in their church service was to get everyone in the community to join their church and use whatever means they had to do it. I've listened to talk shows where the guest said his mission is to make everyone in American a "christian", and destroy the non-believers and other religions because their religion is the "wrong path to follow". So don't tell me they don't push their viewpoint on us and down our throat. Maybe you don't but a lot of others do.
Homosexuality was never allowed in ancient times
and it did not become a sin because the christians said it is a sin. It's written in the Bible and this I believe, because it is 'detestable', it is so written in the Bible:
' Below are some Bible verses that condemn homosexuality:
Leviticus 18:22 - You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.
Leviticus 20:13 - If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death.....'
Oh, I have said plenty here.
You just don't read it.
Oh, I appreciate them plenty! sm
I was raised on them. Had a big ol' pot of beans with cornbread and homemade bread and butter pickles yesterday for dinner. Sho 'nuff wuz good, too!
You can have my portion of possum, though. Gives me indigestion. ;o)
Well, there has been plenty of that...lol (sm)
And I'm sure there will be more. The reality of the situation is yes, she was thrown under the bus. She also made the DECISION to put herself in the limelight, knowing (just like everyone else in that spot) that she would be scrutinized. It was a JOKE! Lighten up....besides, I told you not to look.
Ah, but that's not all. She has plenty more
::
LOL! No, there's plenty.
In fact, there's a new "crow," it seems, every day!!
Thanks for the good wishes, GP. 
Well, so far there's been plenty with O to keep you
nm
There are plenty of us who get
TechSupport. Just because you lack the intelligence or refuse to stop drinking kool-aid...doesn't mean the rest of us are like you. If you don't like TechSupport....don't read his posts. If you can't reply without being petty, don't bother replying. The childishness is getting old here.
Yup, he's got plenty of constituents who'd like him out.
Nothing like earning respect like this:

Again, there will still be plenty who will carry her. sm
She isn't going to change and she shouldn't. She is no more outrageous than Molly Ivins and some of the far left pundits. She will always have a following.
Wrong...there were plenty (sm)
who were telling her to get out. Like I said earlier, I do not support any of the current candidates. Based on the length of your posts, it seems that you spend way too much time focused on something you have no control over, but that's just my opinion.
Here is some...you can research for more yourself...there is plenty
on the net.

There is plenty of blame to go around...
However, Bill Clinton is not trying to rewrite history and take credit for keeping the United States safe since 9/11.
He has to do this so he will have plenty of people
nm
We have had plenty of terrorist
AND after 9/11.
- USS Cole.
- 2000 New Year attack attempt at Los Angeles Airport, but stopped at Port Angeles, WA ferry terminal during Clinton.
- New York Bomb Subway in 1997 with Clinton in office.
My gosh, there is a whole list of terrorist attack attempts.
I am sure there are plenty of them who use prostitutes sm
in the District of Criminals, left and right. They only out them when they become a problem - i.e. Eliot Spitzer blowing the whistle on Wall Street before the election.
Wrong - there are plenty
You go ahead and think there are no people who can "hold a candle to him". C'mon you really need to stop drinking the kool-aid. Do you know every single politician in this country? I don't think so. There are a lot of unknown politicians out there who are much better than what is in there and also a lot of well known politicians more qualified. Right now we just have a continuation of the Bush Admin.
At the rate he's going he'll be lucky if he isn't impeached for bringing the country down.
So unless you know every single candidate (republican and independent because we could be seeing the first Independent President in history in 2012) it would be wise to keep these uneducated statements to yourself.
As Ben Franklin once said -
"It is better to keep silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt".
And, unfortunately, you have plenty of "inane"
xx
There are plenty of misspeaks to be found
from ALL the candidates from both parties. That doesn't make it right but arguing over whose misspeak is the worse doesn't get us anywhere.
So don't bother to duck. I'm not gonna throw anything.
Yes, i have plenty to keep me busy. Your attitude
just makes you seem somewhat sexist and I really was just curious?
No problem. Plenty of time for that.
xoxoxox
Yeah, and plenty of them are on this board. sm
I don't relate to them, or SP, whatsoever. I do relate to the women commenting on that blog, and I believe others who visit this board will too, which is why I gave the url. Enjoy.
i've seen plenty of comments
regarding religion... obama and mccain.... seen it a bit more with obama with good reason, when you hear what his pastor of 20 years has said.
I know plenty of kids in our schools who would
@
I have said plenty of things against Mccain
And if it wouldn't be just a wasted vote I would write in another candidate. But the bottom line is Obama is way to liberal. If there was a democratic candidate who was more middle of the road and upheld Christian values I would most certainly vote for him or her. I could care less about republican or democratic parties. Heck this is my first year voting! I think the voting age should be 21 because most 18 year olds are not intelligent enough to go out and really learn about the candidates. They just want to vote for the rock star who promises change. Forget what the change is. He's just so COOL.
Last time I checked COOL wasn't on the lists of requirements for presidential candidate.
There was plenty of mean spirited on the O side too
The last three days of his campaign reeked of mean-spirited.
oh, they'll change plenty!
It just won't entail anything you're requesting! Now that all 3 tiers of DC will be run by the Dems, and let me clarify the far-left wing of that party (Obama #1 most lib, Ted Kennedy #2, Joe Biden #3, clearly documented if you don't believe me).
The election is over, and I'm not here to start a fight over anything. But what I'm saying can be proven in a year from now, 2 years, etc., so I'll make a point to keep this as a reference. Those who voted for this tax-loving group (x3: House, Senate, WH) apparently doesn't mind doing the "American" thing, per Joe Biden. That's what he said about paying taxes. So make a side-by-side comparison for each pay check you get so you can see how much more you'll be taxed once the Dems are running what may turn into a filibuster-proof Senate (the only reason they took Joe Lieberman back). Of course, they have John McCain as well, the man who is more comfortable dissing the conservatives than he is trying to pretend he's one (other than nat'l security & pro-life, basically).
The Republicans got exactly what they deserved, too. Conservatism didn't and will never die, but the GOP took conservatism out of its party the past several years, and this is why they were punished in a big way. That's the only way the GOP can rebuild itself from the gound up.
When I saw the less than 10-minute "movie" called HowObamaGotElected, it was more shocking than I had even realized. Every voter should see this, then give whatever news station(s) you prefer should get a huge reprimand from all the voters who were spoon-fed all this stuff.
Maybe DC will bail this industry out, too. After all, it's free money, right? I've been down this road with Columbia. I picked myself up and moved on down the road. One of my closest friends worked for Enron and lost well over $100K, which was nothing compared to many more there. She, like I, didn't waste her time saying things about the players. She certainly didn't expect the gov't to bail her out, either.
What makes you say that? There's plenty of time.
More than a month before the new administration even gets its feet wet. Besides, there is no statute of limitations on war crimes, and Bush is going to be around for quite some time.
Plenty of what? Lies? Propaganda?
You don't sound like a very thoughtful person. Have you ever stopped to consider what life under occupation has been like for the past 3 generations (60 years)? Probably not. Please notice that that would encompass nearly 40 years of time BEFORE Hamas ever showed up on the scene. If you are OK with having your tax dollars bankroll a blood-thirsty fascist apartheid occupier and have no regard for the suffering it has caused, that speaks for itself. BTW, Hamas is not invading itself.
Let me leave you with this little piece of info to ponder. Hamas weapons amount to stones, home-made pipe bombs and rockets that cannot make their mark. Israel's arsenal includes Assault rifles, submachine guns, machine guns, sniper rifles, shotguns, pistols,
Semi-automatics, breach grenades, SWAT rifles, Isherman, Sho't, Magach, Sabra and Merkava tanks, Davidka, Makmat and Soltam M-66 mortars, Soltam, Rascal, Sholef and IDF howitzers, cargo, sea scan, fighter and trainer aircraft, Shaldaq, Dvora and Super Dvora patrol boats, Sa'ar 3, 4 and 5-class missle boats, Sa'ar 5-class corvettes, Gal class and Dolphin submarines, Trophy and Iron Fist protection systems, Flight Guard airborne countermeasures systems, Machbet anti-aircraft weapons, Barak surface-to-air missiles, SPYDER air-defense system, Arrow anti-ballistic missiles, Tactical High Energy Laser, Iron Dome short-range rocket defense system, David's Sling medium-range rocket defense system, B-300 and Shipon shoulder-launched missiles, shoulder-lanched multipurpose assault weapons, FGM-172 SRAWs, MAPATS, Spike, Nimrod and LAHAT ATGMs, Shafrir, Derby and Python air-to-air missiles, Gabriel naval anti-ship missiles, Popeye air-to-surface missiles, LORA theater and Jericho ballistic missiles, Nimda, Trail Blazers, IDF Nagmachon, IDF Nakpadon, IDF Puma, IDF Achzarit, Namer IFV, Nemmera ARV, AIL Storm, Plasan Sand Cat, Wolf Armoured and Golan Armored fighting vehicles, IMI Mastiff, Casper 250, IAI Searcher, IAI Hary, IAI I-View, IAI Ranger, IAI Heron, IAI RQ-2 Hunter, Elbit Skylark, Elbit Hermes and Aeronautics Defense Dominator unmanned fighter vehicles, Typhoon close-in weapon system, Kilshon anti-radiation missile launchers, Caterpillar D7/D9 armored bulldozers, Enhanced Tactical Computers, LITENING targeting pods, Spice EO-GPS PGM guidance kits, Shavit spaceflight launch vehicle, EROS earth observation satellite and Ofeg reconnaissance satellites. Oops, I almost forgot the WMDs, including chemical, biologic and, of course, the nukes.
Any reasonable person who compares the arsenals and fatalities, including my 10-year-old, can figure out who the terrorists are.
We showed plenty of patriotism..(sm)
last Nov 4. Now THAT was a grass roots movement. Maybe you guys just didn't have the right kind of leadership for this thing. Maybe next time you should look into getting a community organizer.....
Excuse me, but plenty of us ARE paying

You spend plenty of time cat fighting when

NO kidding he gets plenty of media attention without them...
I am surprised that the other media doesn't have nymphs throwing rose petals on his path. But wait...we haven't had Invesco field yet. Maybe that is where the nymphs will come in. The Obama girl is in Denver I hear. lol.
As far as Fox being biased...I saw at least two of them tearing up talking about what a historical moment it was that a black man had ascended to being the first to be nominated by a major party. It WAS moving, for that reason.
This post is extremely intolerant. How is saying he doesn't do well in unscripted situations mean that I hate him and am trying to dig up dirt? Seems more like the poster hates anyone who doesn't say something positive about Obama. It is an observation...I have seen him in unscripted situations and he does not do well. If he thinks O'Reilly is tough, wait until he sits down with Medvedev.
Campaign politics. Plenty of hate to go around.

I am plenty old to vote, study all the issues, as well

You made plenty sense, Marmann.... sm
I hope you feel better soon!
And plenty of American-made weapons!
It's a shame when the only place you can find "Made in the USA" any more is on weapons!

I read plenty, thank you. History will prove your

He gave her plenty of time to answer
He talked and then he shut up and let her talk and answer the question. And all she said was I believe all woman have the right to run for office. He did tell her that if she can prove that she defended Palin he will apologize to her. My bet....she will not be able to prove it. She's a hypocrite pure and simple.
You know it's like listening to Chris Matthews and Chris Matthews came out when a question was thrown at him about not letting his guest speak. He told his guest. I will let you speak but if I think your giving me the "B" I'm going to keep drilling you until you speak the truth. No different than O'Reilly.
The public deserves the truth.
He gave her plenty of time to answer
the question and she just kept saying the same crap. She never directly answered his questions. Bill nailed her though on not sticking up for Sarah Palin. If you are going to stick up for women's rights.....stick up for all women and not just the liberal ones. That isn't fair or balanced either. That organization is hypocritical.
As for what he said about Helen....who cares. I'm sure she is a tough enough woman that she doesn't care what Bill O'Reilly says about her. And truly....what is up with the "so-called terrorists." They are terrorists...not so called ones. Who can really dispute how creepy that woman looks....I mean....come on. Helen has been around long enough that I'm sure she has thick skin and didn't give a rats behind what O'Reilly says about her. I mean....come on.
This is petty. Get over it. More important things to discuss than whether or not Bill O'Reilly was overly rude by saying her voice sounded like the wicked witch on the Wizard of Oz.
Sadly, there are plenty of wimpy miserable little

You mean the pro-war folks ?
The ones in their Scooby-doo T-shirts and bedroom slippers? LOL - the ones babbling about 9/11 as if it had something to do with Iraq? I think the only washing that needs to go on is in their ears.
