Ask James48843

Dear James48843,

If you had to do it all over again, would you have started this thread?

Real Question - There have been some questions about whether we are on track to inflation. Can you identify the "inflation" markers that determine our situation?

Well, my goodness. Why do you want to silence someone if they say something that you personally disagree with? That is a bad attribute for a moderator to have.

Today is the first time I've been here and glanced over some of the previous posts.

First of all Lady is not trying to 'Silence' anyone - and disagreements are unavoidable. What Lady is 'stressing' is that WE - even if our views are wholly different in regards to Obama, Christianity, and all the other manners by which we as a civilization can find God and become an extention of the Spirit of Grace and Peace and Love - whatever the NAME of that religion may be.

THAT we should be able to communicate with one another regardless of our beliefs (or even a total lack of belief) without pointing fingers and throwing stones at one another.

James pointed out how he views Obama and the way Obama himself has identified himself with Christ.

If we respond by saying: 'How many times has he been to church' and the multitude of endless questions any of us can ask - in efforts to 'create stones' to throw at him - or one another -

It is only because some individuals are bent on stirring up problems; or some essentially live 'for conflcit'.

LADY is simply saying - 'Is it not possible for us to have FUN with one another and discuss any topic - no matter how widely our views may vary - WITHOUT ALL THE GARBAGE.

I believe that is possible - so let's show everyone how easy it can be.

Awww, jeez. What is it going to take to get you to move on?! Get another subject, get a hobby, go for a walk and enjoy nature, something!

O all right, Buster. the thoughts were connected. :) I admire James so much for the grace with which he handles difficult interactions and that remark really was addressed specifically to him. I frequently lack that grace myself. all the same, I'm really really glad you spoke up and got the moderators moving in on a really really tiresome situation. Again, thank you.

He's still...out looking...I guess his staff are still doing background checks on all churches in the area! He might accidentally find a church with the leader who is the cousin of the infamous Rev. Wright...or Wrong! I think it's all mostly for show....need those votes!

Our President has said he is a Christian, that he believes who Jesus is, and was, and will be. That's good enough for me. I am happy for him. Delighted, actually. I am joyus that our President says he knows and has accepted Christ.

You are free to believe what you wish to believe about our President, nothing I can say will change that belief.

I pray every day that those who don't know Him will learn about Him, and enjoy the relationship He offers. It's a wonderful thing.

(See, we have a thread with both politics and religion in one thread, and we still can be civil, no?)

James,

How many times has BHO attended church in 2009 YTD? How many times has his kids attended with him in 2009 YTD?


(Hint for the first question:

. And the answer to the 2nd question is one less than the first.)

My husband's requested Father's Day menu for tomorrow is BBQ country pork ribs. I'm sensing a theme here! :laugh:

For the record, he'll also get corn on the cob, cowboy beans, fresh baked rolls, and brownies for dessert. But no sangria. He'll have to settle for iced tea. :D
