Originally posted by JimL View PostYes, I was ignorant of that fact, but it's irrelevant. Sanders wants to tax the rich, not just himself, but including himself, for the good of the country at large. If as a country we as a people adopt that policy, the rich will still be extremely wealthy and we will all live in a better country. You christians here are hypocrites who don't really care about the poor, the sick, the mentally ill or in other words your country, so long as you've got yours."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

Ask not what your God can do for you. Ask what you can do for your God.
Ours requires us to care for the poor and disadvantaged. Not hammer everybody into submssion.
In case you didn't notice, Christianity lost a lot of ground lately in the political forum. What you're seeing is the work of unbelievers. Because we didn't stand firm enough perhaps 30 or 40 years ago. At least we can prove that life without God is really bad. Now we got to make up lost ground. By the grace of God we may be getting a lot of help from the behavior of such like Pelosi and Sanders.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette
