1 | Denounce militant Islam? | Matt 5:44 | alienresident | 131974 | ||
You said: "Actually it did, they cast a silent vote against those that they opposed." I almost wrote the same thing! My non-vote is a vote of "no confidence." You also state: "And since God has placed us under this particular governmental style should we say this is wrong and therefore I refuse to take my rightful position in that Government?" Remember, what holds true now or in one country must hold true later and in any country. Christians have been faced with the death for failure to purchase a political card in some third world nations undergoing civil war. I assure you that neither party best represented Bible teachings and both had innocent blood all over themselves. It's easy to look at things from an American perspective and conclude that God must be using this government. I keep reminding myself that Satan is the ruler of this world. |

2 | Denounce militant Islam? | Matt 5:44 | Hank | 132005 | ||
alien: Your "non vote" is NOT a vote of "no confidence" as you put it. A non vote is a non vote, no matter what you call it. If every citizen of these United States followed your example by refusing to vote, what kind of government do you think this country would have? My friend, take a long look at the tyranny under which millions of people suffer. Is that the kind of government you want? If it isn't, stop dreaming and get real! And by all means get off your blessed assurance and go vote! Our system of government is not perfect by a long shot, but it beats anything else you're going to find in this imperfect world. --Hank | ||||||

Well said, Hank, Well said!! Amen. ALL Americans, every single one of us should vote. Otherwise as far as you are concerned all the ones who died to give us that wonderful blessing did so in vain. To all those NOT voting: I'd hate to think my son who was in the military for four years could have died when he was in Middle East protecting your right to vote and now you're telling me you think you'll NOT vote as a form of protest. Let's be completely honest with each other and just call that what it is. The sophisticated name for it is HOGWASH. I'll let you figure out what the less sophisticated names are. You bet this kind of talk makes me just a little angry. Almost as angry as our Lord must have been when He "cleansed His Father's House." Makes a true American want to do the same thing. God Bless America, land that I love. Country Girl |
