My 1000 post…


So I was hoping to save this milestone for welcoming President Obama into office November 4 (or 5th depending on how late it is), 2008 but I've been a little worked up lately about the right wing, crunch-time scare tactics.

Just for this special occasion, please allow me to talk a little bit about my religion (quiet your grumbles…). I am a liberal Christian wife and mother. I was raised in the Baptist Church and I pray to a loving God …

If I were to die tomorrow, I know in my heart, that I will be going to Heaven…that is the graciousness of my FAITH…and I couldn’t imagine life without it.

I have tried to live a good life…and I have failed miserably at times. But the God that I pray to isn’t a hateful God…

I have to wonder what God the McCain supporters pray to because MY God does not approve of their hate…He does not approve of their bigotry…His teachings go against it.

And I just wonder, how they can be so afraid of a man’s middle and last name…if their God was MY God, they wouldn’t fear a thing…

Thanks all…
:loveya:

1. Good for you!
Congratulations on your 1000 post. And I can agree with you on one thing for sure, if there is a decent God out there, he certainly doesn't approve of McTroll.

7. A beautiful post - thank you.
And although I don't know your God, I would venture to guess that He might be heartbroken and so sad at all the intolerance and hatred.
