Why would anybody vote for a Party that thinks the end of the world can not come soon enough???

[CK_John]

The approach I would take is.

By asking the question. By having the leadership bring this up for discussion without belittling anyones beliefs.

Just point out you would be a better interim office holder to manage things until it happens.

1. Why do people living in a democracy yearn to spend eternity in a dictatorship?

eom

[Loudly]

2. And there is reason for supporting the existence of a Jewish state

other than the imminent return of the Lord.

[RC]

3. Because they really think there is a Heaven that they will spend Eternity in.

For a variety of reasons, they won't like the surprise ending in store for them.

5. To me their reason is not important, I want to point out to voters that those

candidates do not have the motivation to better society while they are waiting for the end time.

11. Actually no lol...

If religious people are wrong, doesn't matter because there's nothing. If non religious people are wrong... well.. lol...

[RC]

14. It's the shit done in the name of their religion that is often detrimental to the common good.

15. I would agree, just saying

if I do something bad in your name, that doesn't equate to you being bad.

4. It's a good question.

Too good for the media. Everyone has agreed to not call attention to elephants in the room.

A couple of things got through in the Republican debates. None of the viable Republicans apparently believe in evolution, and the audience is OK with people dying for lack of health insurance. So that's why they are trying to reduce the number of conventions.

No one asked Romney about Moroni or anyone about Revelations. But the answers would have been very interesting.

6. You're falling for the logic trap, you what a logical reason for their beliefs. Forget it. Just

say candidate A believes the sooner the world ends is good, so they will not have policies that will better society or you the voter.

I'm candidate B and will be a better manager of policy while we are waiting and work for a better society for everyone.

7. There's A Sucker Born Every Minute

8. But they vote and we have to get people to start voting for their own best interest.

23. Just visit Raptureready.com.

These are a bunch of wingnuts who think they are going to be flown up to heaven any day now.

9. why do they vote for a party that hates government and

has a policy of destroying it?

[CK_John]

10. Why? Bad hair day, didn't get layed, they just got fired, it doesn't matter.

WE have to appeal to their selfish interest the old what's in it for me.

[proudretiredvet]

12. This one got a head shake out of me.

What is said here is not true. There are some on the right who believe this but that is by far not most of them and is not the "party".
It is about the same as some from that side claiming that all of us on the left have only one answer, hard core communism.
There is about an equal amount of truth to both statements.
And that is none.

[CK_John]

13. Then why do the GOP people Bachmann, Cruz, Ryan, Huckbee, Perry keep tellings us that's their belief

[proudretiredvet]

16. They are not the party, they are individuals

How far would a liberal politician get if they did not appease the socialists in the democratic ranks? Do you really thing all democratic national politicians are socialists?
Same crap different flavor.

[CK_John]

17. These people are or were GOP Presidential candidates they are the "Party".

[proudretiredvet]

18. Then the anti gun zealots are the democratic party

[CK_John]

19. Believe anything you want but a politician who is wishing for the end times is not going to be

working for the betterment of the people in the district.

[proudretiredvet]

20. And any democrat who runs on a gun control plank will not win

[CK_John]

21. Since we are off the OP topic how's your take on time change?

[proudretiredvet]

22. Let it change tonight

Then leave it alone for ever and ever.

[CK_John]

24. I'll go with you on that. Thank you for your service.
