First let me say I respect your religious views. I believe religion, not just this time of year, but for all year, is a very vital and crucial component for the way we ALL live our lives. Hence, my last post.
My post was meant to incite insight and meaningful thought to who we are as a people as we face down the threat of Muslim terrorism that is beginning to foment in the United States. We, all of us, who consider ourselves to be good, honest, fundamental Christians, are charged everyday with learning, teaching, and obeying the Ten Commandments. Yet we find ourselves more concerned with the sensitivities of Muslims than we are with spreading the gospel of goodness and life abundance. Somewhere we've lost sight of who we are and have allowed those of a narrow mind dictate to us a form of radicalism that tears at the seams of our society.
Alas, we find many of our neighbors across this vast country who want us to believe that we are safe from immoral turpitude. We are not gentlemen. Look no further than the cesspool of Washington, D.C. Much like Sodom and Gomorrah our morality continues in a downward and crumbling spiral. Therein lies the lesson of my last post gentlemen. Do we simply accept the gospel verbatim for it's words or do we accept the gospel for what we've come to feel and believe in our hearts? Do we accept the words of Lucifer's demons who will say and promise anything for our votes? Or do we vote our conscious and understand the futility behind the politics which have led us to where we are today?
Certainly there is nothing wrong with believing that Jesus, a mortal man, died for our sins and whose disciples professed Jesus would return one day to walk among us once more. Gentlemen, 2,007 years have come and gone. Think back over those 2,007 years of the seven deadly sins and ask yourself, when is Jesus coming back? Is Jesus coming back at all? Could Jesus now be among us without our knowing of his prescence?
Speaking for myself I think Jesus will return once he can play the piano again. But that's just me being facetious.
Gentlemen, I thank you. I am the Toast of the Town.
