  • Politics and religion?? Why does the fairy tale of god have any significance in the discussion of real world issues? Are we really that far behind? Makes me ashamed to be an american.

  • And Obama answered that question beautifully. Thank you Obama. You are the man.

  • unfortunately in the us, religious affiliation (almost exclusively protestant christianity) is a prerequisite for office - which is downright disconcerting, embarrasing and saddening.

  • Be direct. God and according to apostle Paul wants Christians to be peaceful if possible. That's right "if possible".

  • It is imperative that domestic issues be tackled immediately by our next president. The economy is unstable, the stock market is going to crash (trust me here), energy prices are ridiculous, unemployment is atrocious, and healthcare is horrendus.

    But first, fix the 2008 budge that YOUR SENATE VOTED FOR! RESTORE THE FUNDING TO PUBLIC RADIO AND TELEVISION! You should be ASHAMED for allowing a 25% cut to PBS/NPR funding.

    This question is ridiculous.

  • God isnt an issue in politics but there is some merit to moral issues discussed in the bible and such but we should be more confident in our own laws and constitution.

  • weither i support the cause in question i dont believe the decitful bullcrap of "god" should be used to futher a political view. Also, Obama for president!

  • Good answer, Good answer

  • No, not kill yourself, just hate yourself. How do you know that that passage is symbolic? And if it is symbolic, what is it symbolic of?

  • Yes, because that passage wasn't symbolic at all.

    f anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple.

    I don't think Jesus wants me to kill myself to become his disciple.

  • And you quit posting that God is make believe. He isn't. It's unfourtunate that you can't listen to someone who knows God and believe he's with us. And <I> believe </I> me, he's very mad and disappointed with you right now for saying that.
