Listen, Lance, my dear—why is it that every time I make a
point you just clam up? What is YOUR POINT??? 

 

It seems to me that whenever Liberals are too inarticulate to
articulate what, specifically, they don’t like about GWB, they accuse HIM
of being “inarticulate”.  And
whenever they are unable to intelligently discuss exactly why they disagree
with his policies, they call HIM “stupid”.  Why is it that Liberals avoid discussing
ISSUES, and instead ATTACK those that they disagree with?  Is this living according to the Law of Love?
Izzy

 

PS You said that you prefer an “immoral JFK to a moral
GWB”.  Why IS that???  It seems that the only thing you have
mentioned that you disagree with GWB about is the war in Iraq.  Ever hear of the Bay of
 Pigs?  Ever hear of Vietnam?
 

 

PPS  If someone followed YOU
around with a camera with the intention of making YOU look
stupid/inept/unintelligent, do you think they would have any problem
accomplishing their goal???

Thank you.   I did not mean to come on strong against what Laura had said.  All this is about a personal bias. The kids mom of 23 years knew exactly what she was doing and knew that the church had "no choice but to forgive her" when she came asking  --  and she is right.   It is not even a matter of forgiveness for me  --  you just get hurt beyond your ability to deal with it as you should.  It is never on my mind but when she walks into a room in my presense, its 1987 all over again  -- same rage and all.   I control it.   

We have 5 awesome kids.   It has effected each in a different way.   But things are good now and my wife of 3 years is one of the most dedicated Christians I have every known.   Too bad she got the dirty end of the stick with me  -- but I don;t care.   


I have a smile on my face and in my heart most of the time.

can be measured, and television interviews is only one measurement.

What did Bush say or do in his television interviews that gave you a
poor assessment of his intellectual abilities?

Why do you think so?  I cannot find one problem with the decision.  I
have always supported this move and still do.  I believe it was a very
significant move toward world peace, although true peace will not be
achieved until everyone in the world believes in Jesus Christ.

Peace be with you.

  Bill,
   
   Not being 
  one of you "big thinkers" I doubt I can answer these questions to your 
  satisfaction. 
   
  Ah Izzy, no big 
  thoughts here. I was just wondering how you thought we could determine such 
  things. I think your answers are satifactory -- quite so, in 
  fact.
   
  Only God knows who He considers 
  "righteous", as He can see the heart as well as all of a person's 
  actions/intents that we cannot.  
  
   
  However the Bible tells us that (Gen 15:6) Abraham "believed in 
  the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness." 
  
   
  Deuteronomy 6:25  "And it shall be our 
  righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our 
  God, as he hath commanded us."
   
  So it seems to me that if one Believes 
  and, as a result, Obeys the 
  Lord, they are counted as righteous by Him.  One problem in stating that someone is 
  "stupid" in their actions is that you cannot know what the Lord has told him 
  to do (unless it is obviously sin according to God's laws).  However, one indicator of whether 
  someone is a righteous man is the comportment of his life.  For example, is he truthful, loyal, 
  trustworthy, faithful, and does he give honor to his Lord? If he displays 
  integrity over a long period of time, with no obvious sin, one can assume that 
  he is living righteously. 
   
  How will God judge us if we are not righteous? Your question, as I understood it, was a bit more specific 
  than this. You asked, ". . . do you think that God will judge 
  us for making erroneous/libelous judgments against those that He considers 
  righteous?" I was just wondering what you were thinking this judgment from 
  God -- if it were to be made -- might involve. I was turning the question 
  back on you, in other words, hoping to draw out of you what you were 
  thinking.
   
  I would assume in both this life and the 
  next.  In this life by the natural 
  consequences of a sinful life, which are often not seen by the outside world.  In the next by either lack of rewards or even by hell 
  itself.  That's about as 
  much as I have figured it out so far.  
  I'd appreciate any further help on the subject 
  myself.

Bill,

 

 Not being one of you
"big thinkers" I doubt I can answer these questions to your
satisfaction.  Only God knows who He
considers "righteous", as He can see the heart as well as all of a
person's actions/intents that we cannot. 


 

However the Bible tells us that (Gen 15:6) Abraham "believed
in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness." 

 

Deuteronomy 6:25 
"And it shall
be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the
LORD our God, as he hath commanded us."

 

So it seems to me that if one Believes
and, as a result, Obeys the Lord,
they are counted as righteous by Him. 
One problem in stating that someone is "stupid" in their
actions is that you cannot know what the Lord has told him to do (unless it is obviously

DavidM:The word 'stupid' was a poor choice (a very poor choice). I stand by
the balance of what I said concerning Bush. Yes, I do think that one can
take the 'measure' of a person through their public performance.

 I've been called stupid and worse. There are occasions when it was
applicable.

PS:The 'Iraq choice' was, in my judgement, a blunder of the first order.
