In response to the mentioning of God as a chink in my argument armor, I say this;
Isn't the transparency of God the 1 simple inadequacy that has plunged this country and culture, into an almost moral revolution? Our forefathers believed the only way a Republican Government (I define Republican by form of govnt not a party) could survive is by having a virtuous nation. In fact it was the increase in mortality that accelerated the revolution in the first place. And you might ask, what did the forefathers identify morality by? The 10 Commandments. Using the Golden rule by itself is like eating straight BBQ sauce...no substance. It's like wandering a desert without a guide and will lead to death. Which is where we are headed as a nation. So the introduction of God in my argument was solely for the purpose of explaining that we should not HATE anyone who is homosexual even if he/she is in office, but follow the Golden Rule. But that does not excuse our elected officials to not be virtuous and lead us into ruin. And to suppose that mentioning God in any argument weakens it, I feel is simply preposterous.
"Is there no virtue among us? If there be not, we are in a wretched situation. No theoretical checks, no form of government, can render us secure. To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people, is a chimerical idea. If there be sufficient virtue and intelligence in the community, it will be exercised in the selection of these men; so that we do not depend upon their virtue, or put confidence in our rulers, but in the people who are to choose them"
James Madison
It seems that many liberals are open minded.. but when you ask them to be open minded about God, they close their minds. If we as individuals have trouble with God and following his rules, then how much more do we need him as a Nation of many? Especially the way it's going now, with a rock star as president. Most people that voted for Obama just liked him because of his attitude and outward looks. Apparently if you look like it, then you are it. It reminds me of Hitler.. everyone accepted him as chancellor and dictator because of his personality, and ignored his Mein Kampf. Obama wrote the books, "Dreams of my Father, and "Audacity of Hope" and both of them have either anti white statements, or statements that favor the Islam religion. Sadly, I believe that many Americans know more about celebrities than they even know the names of the people in office, because they think that since they are in America, they will all be ok and nothing will go wrong, because they are in America. The reason God told Israel to choose a King was because the Israelites didn't want God as their King, so God basically said, "ok well then I'll let you have a man as a ruler instead of me and see how that goes." They chose Saul, and he eventually became corrupt. Therefore, we need God as our ruler and not men nor the society mainstream of thinking to be our "God." Our country must be based off of Godly principles, which are good, or else destruction is the result, which is what we are experiencing now.
