Does "War in Iraq" define Conservative politics?

Post #1

Post by questioner4 »

Why are people that self-identify as "Christian," supporting Conservative politics?

Conservatives have ignored or broken international laws to wage a war on Iraq, killing tens of thousands of people. Why do Christians still support Conservativess?

The War In Iraq is to kill tens of thousands of people.

Why would Christians want to be part of a political movement that tens of thousands of people?

Clearly this word "War In Iraq" defines the arrogance and greed that is the "core values" in the Conservative political movement across America today.

Are not Christians "called" to not kill people?

Why do Christians that have read the words of Christ Jesus, "especially on killing people," continue to support Conservative politics?

Your opinion is once again loud and clear. Be happy in your "self." I'm thinking that it is 2005 not because of Buddha or Krishna. I doubt that the immutabilty of the calendar will change anytime soon.
Today is 13 Heshvan 5766 or 13 Shawwal 1426 or (Julian Day) 2453690 or (ancient Egyptian) 28 Phamenoth or (Old French) 19 Geschwind 27 (9 Osman).

And it is Tuesday - named after a Norse god.

See the calendar is anything but an immutable fact

Just like the bible.

Actually I thought I made a mistake last week but it turned out that I was wrong.

"When I see I am nothing, that is wisdom. When I see I am everything, that is love. My life is a movement between these two."

The month of Tammuz in the Jewish calendar is named after a pagan god.

But . . .

What date is it on YOUR computer?

Also it seems we can dispense with a "old earth."

Also wasn't Friday named after most Liberal college students on spring break?

Both of us could if God wanted us to.

I only try to present empirical fact.

And the truth of the Bible. Any men wanting to rape Angels in any Hindu religious texts?
