I am not in favor of homosexuality, does that mean I hate them, no. I have been labeled a bigot many times because of it with gay friends who chose to no longer be my friend because I was honest. But it was my honesty also that put the hot coals on there shoulder as, I told them that they call me a bigot for disagreeing with their lifestyle, and they disagreed with mine, so I said how am I anymore of a bigot then you? They didn't have an answer because they saw the flaw in the way they were thinking. I'm a firm believer in walking in love towards other, and that I don't have to agree with them to do it not them with me.
Yes many of the Christians voice their opinions but so do atheist groups, and other groups who have been militant in their ways. Every group seems to want something. I don't care who they are, whether it's atheists crying about the In God we trust on the money or the Feminists claiming they are being held down, even though they have more rights then men, or the church leaders who want to serve God but yet choose to be under a 501c3 and are serving the state over God. Why can't we just follow the constitution that guarantees rights for all not based on anything besides being a citizen of the USA.
I lean more conservative independent because I believe in responsibility and that love is not forced but rather chosen to be given out. I like the saying, teach a man to fish and he'll eat for life, but give a man a fish and he will only eat for a day. I believe that too many on the liberal side have the entitlement attitude that the government owes them something, or that if you have money you are evil. I just want freedom and a small government, I want to make a living and feed my family honestly, I want to be able to give money to the poor and not have it forced out of me by the government, I want the ability to start a business and have the freedom to fail or succeed without over regulations. I want to see people in this nation have the drive to be responsible again. I want to see an actual president in this country or politician that lives this country and not apologize and make us seem like an evil weak minded people. A politician who actually makes us financially responsible and not continue the trend of ruining our kids futures. Sadly I'm not sure this will ever happen as we are going in the wrong direction.
My rant is over. Relic or Bolt, if you feel this is against anyone it is not. We are adults here, ban me before you close the thread.
