Like Lisa, I must admit that Amesh, even though there are many points with which I do not agree, is the only one worth debating with.

Rick tells me that I need to get a life and stick to the points at hand. Well, I do have a life, which is why I rarely take the time to cast pearls before swine. As it is written, Reprove a fool, and he will hate you for it. In other words, Never argue with an idiot. Correct me if I'm wrong, but was not the debate whether or not our Forefathers created the Constitution from the framework of Christianity? Yes it was. And in fact, many states required their delegates to to the Constitutional Convention to take oaths affirming their Christian faith. Massachusetts, for instance, had this: " I, (name), do declare that I believe the Christian religion, and have firm persuasion of its Truth." There were other such required oaths, but I will spare those of you who develope headaches from such lengthy literaries. Rick also said that he operates by "logic." I'll have him know that a chimpanzee operates off of a form of logic. Once again, the debate was whether or not America was founded by Christians and the Constitution created thereby. Using "logic", and reading the statements and speeches made by these men, is the manner whereby which an accurate discernment is attained as to the character of them. But enough of this, I don't believe in kicking dead horses. As Napolean Hill stated, You can educate an intelligent man, but you can't make an "educated" man intelligent.

For which cause I will close with a response to an intelligent man; Amesh. Like you, I am against being taxed to pay for irresponsibility and laziness of others. And, in my opinion, we as a nation are going to have to come up with a solution to overtaxing because the industrial base that the Clinton Admin sold to China and India is never coming back. And, in the event of a major conflict, those people that no longer receive free food are not humbly going to sit and pine away with hunger. Don't listen to the Democrats, buy a gun.
