Yeah, they are. I’m amazed at the arrogance of some self professed “patriot” Christians. IMHO, they do more to fracture those of us who get it than any elitist agenda ever could. They are unwitting foot soldiers of the globalists.

Don't ya' wish you had kept all those five-cent dust collectors you had under your bed?

I tried to keep them, but a pair of fire-breathing, rapture monkey aunts kept throwing them out while preaching to me about how those four-color idols were leading me into the arms of Satan. If I still had those books, I'd have enough money to leave the country. Thanks, girls. (One aunt is a serial adulterer, and the other is a fantical control freak. Me? Just a fuzzy 'ol bundle of love that wants to be left alone to tend his garden and care for his wife. Guess the Republicans think I'm asking for TOO MUCH!!!)

Don't ya' wish you had kept all those five-cent dust collectors you had under your bed? Those and my baseball card collection.

I started wrapping and storing my comics when I was about 12. I've got a collection of about 2000 vintage comics from the late 70s and early 80s that I'm gonna pass on to my son in 10 years or so. I haven't looked up their values recently, but I know they're worth a pretty decent small car...

I figure he can either pass them on to his kids or he can finance a major purchase like a car with them. Despite what collectors say, however, comic collecting is not "investing" and has nothing even remotely approaching the return of a decent bank CD. Not that it isn't fun collecting them (Hell, I even have Conan the Barbarian #1); but they aren't an "investment".

To: Jethro Tull You're right, it is a severe mental illness.

I used to be a Catholic. The scandals, the money grubbing preists, but mostly the people drove me away. I couldnt take the "if god wills it" mentality. The smile in my face on Sunday spit on me Monday acts.

Why just this Sunday the church handed out petitions for an amendment to the Florida constitution banning embryonic stem cell research from public money. Like good sheep everyone signed it.

I hate dealing with religious nuts across the board.

The Catholics you describe are more the exception than the mainstream, unless the church has turned into some kind of holy roller hang out since I was last there as a "regular."

I'm not sure what state you live in - if it's a Southern state maybe the Catholics got infected with the Bible Belt disease or something - but the Catholics I've known and my family are all practising Catholics except for me are pretty average people -flawed and not holier than thou- they definitely don't press their religion on strangers nor do they wear their religion on their sleeve like a badge of merit. And Catholics are not too terribly political - in fact, with their numbers, they could be far more political if they chose.

As for priests molesters - that was very ugly - but the percentage of priests who molested was similar to other church's clerics or so I've read - what was bad was the Catholic church tried to cover it up. Also the priest molestation thingie was primarily isolated to American Catholic churches for some peculiar reason.

As for money grubbing priests - the Catholic church is no different from other religions and certainly no worse than most.

Those who use biblical prophecy especially those that insert 'Ezekiel' into their forum responses to explain today's events need to be stoned with big rocks.

--------------------

The reason these Gog/Magog spouting rapture monkeys are dangerous are many but to give one example - Say Russia wants to make nice with the USA and reach agreements and so on - the Gog/Magog spouting rapture monkeys influence our politicians into being hostile to Russia because it is prophesied Russia (and Iran and China and so on) will be invading the Middle East (meaning Israel) for the Antichrist so why make nice to them? In fact America most Gog/Magog spouting rapture monkeys think the USA will be on the side of Christ - against the evil Antichrist serving Russians. Why don't they assume attractive America will serve as the Antichrist who is supposed to be attractive and charismatic - like America is? Why? Because they are crazy Gog/Magog spouting rapture monkeys, that's why. So any peace attempts by Russia will be spurned by an America influenced by Gog/Magog spouting rapture monkeys making conflict between super powers a self fulfilling prophesy.

Would it help your understanding to know that "Israel" in Ezekiel 38-39 is America, and that Gog and Magog are the Antichrist "Jews", INCLUDING the antiChrist Jews who control CorpUSA? If you don't understand that, the following is a lot of reading, and a lot of discerning the truth from error and downright deception, but if one doesn't want to learn the truth, one shouldn't call for those who understand God's truth to be stoned, unless one wants to bring God's wrath down on himself: http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Rev/11/5.html ]

I'm in the same boat as you, scrapper. What got me started on this rant is the outright hatred some otherwise kindred spirits have toward anything Catholic. The Catholics I know would stand with us on most issues, while never discussing religion. Who and what people choose to hold close is their business. IMHO, some people in this community of ours place religion and obscure conspiracies over the current events that are actively altering our culture and country. They divide rather than unify, and I find it impossible to keep quiet.

Catholics and Jews and mainstream Protestants and Buddhists - just about all religious leaders are big sympathizers to illegals and unbridled legal immigration generally - it's the leftie slant of most religions that is the major reason for support of the "poor and disenfranchised" - equality of man - no boundaries for God's children schtick.

The Catholic leadership in S. California - Cardinal Mahoney - has been getting lots of publicity lately - pleading the case for Hispanic illegals - no secret why - Hispanics are Catholics. Also most Catholics I know are Democrats - and the Democrat Party itself is big on illegals - future Democrat voters, but not because Catholics exert any power within the Party - rather because of the party's self-serving reasons.

Evangelicals - are probably one religious group who are not sympathetic to illegals - they are only interested in Rapture and Catholic Mexicans don't play a part in bringing Rapture.

Who is for or against open borders is not cut and dried.

While I am against open borders - my reasons are not the same as those of others - my reasons being logical and rational while most of the other types want to close the border because of racial and religious reasons.

In other words I am against open immigration for economic reasons more so than cultural ones. Those that argue cultural reasons are playing with a losing hand/argument and thus those are the types the media highlights.

No, old boy, it doesn't work like that. The Evangelicals are converting wetbacks by the hundreds. There are literally around a dozen Spanish-speaking Penacostal churches in my Missouri county alone.

That's my experience too, which when one considers the D position on abortion, speaks volumes to the lack of control the church holds over individual Catholics. People are born into these various sects, and are free to remain in them or get a clue upon reaching adulthood. But to link one billion people to an unexplainable Jesuit/Papal conspiracy, is a time drain and causes decent folks to miss the illegal climbing through their open window.

Yes, but ineffective ones because your arguments (which won't work) are the ones that get the media spotlight and thus destroy the winning closed border argument.

I have noticed that while I am a conservative - my conservatism arises from the European civilizational view - old school Latin Republic - Pericles - Code of Justinian, Locke, Burke and so on. American so called conservatives for the most part are not true conservatives - - so while we may be on the same page on many things - why I am where I am you are where you are are different.

The media wants "people like me" fronting the closed border debate? Say what? I think you have me confused with someone else on this forum.

I rarely get involved in immigration debates and when I do my position has been fairly consistent and straight forward. I feel that immigration should be primarily skills-based and not family reunification as it is now. I'm not anti- immigration because of cultural considerations although with the current stress on multiculturalism as opposed to melting pot assimilation, culture has become ghettoizing and divisive to our society. If I appear to be not thrilled with unbridled daisy chain Third World immigration, it's because those immigrants rarely have the skills our nation needs with the exception being immigrants from India or Iran who are generally well educated coming into America or are at the very least highly motivated and educatable so as to excel in professional training.

I am opposed to illegal immigration because it breaks our laws on the books that legal immigrants have respected and queued for for many years in some cases. Illegal immigration also brings in the mix an assortment of societal ills including drugs and disease.

So how can my position be construed to be anti-immigration, close the borders mindset? In fact, some posters have accused me of being too acquiescent to the guest worker plan being a fact of life - which I still think is the case especially after yesterday's state of the union's mess speech.

As for religion's involvement in illegal immigration, I was merely responding to comments made by other posters - of course religios groups are not the only enablers of illegal immigration. I did not say that.

Using the royal we - people who are screaming the WETBACKS are running us over (oh my gawd - there might be some race mixing going on!) as a justification for closing the border get pumped by the media - people like me in my camp that are against immigration be it from Mexico or Poland because of economic reasons get marginalized.

If the USA was still a manufacturing country where immigrants melded together on assembly lines shoulder to shoulder so they could not communicate much in their native tongues because immigration was coming from everywhere and thus were forced to learn English and adopt American ways then I would be for open borders. The manufacturing sector was also a way for a poor illiterate person to be able to earn a livable wage right off the boat. The manufacturing sector was the reason the USA was able to meld all those people into new Americans.

Since we are now a service economy that means immigrants of low education can only get lowly jobs and get ghettoized easier and remain in the ghettos longer. You can't easily climb your way out doing odd jobs for slave wages.

My position on being pro closed borders is complicated - not easily digestible and thus not processed. All you hear are rednecks screaming about not being able to hear English being spoken at dollar stores anymore.

Poor ignorant suckers.

I suggest you re-read this thread and get a handle on the poster associated with that derogatory term and direct your future tirades to that person. Thank you very much..

regardless - I used my replay to you to elaborate so it all worked out in the end.

You are correct about me being self righteous. I need to work on my humility.

You are rude and you are wrong in your nonsensical tirade at me for no reason.

I have always been consistent in my position that immigration should be skills based and my position is no different than your economics schpeel. It's not like either of us are geniuses for seeing the obvious and that's why poll after poll shows that our current immigration policy - placing family reunification as a priority - is broken and why Americans by a significant margin are pissed with our nation's immigration policy directions today both legal and illegal.

Nothing you just did or said to me on this thread "worked." You accused me falsely and you don't even have the courtesy to apologize for your error. What you "need to work on" are your facts, your honesty, and your manners.
