one of the hot topics...

First of all, I have to say that yesterday's sermon at church was wonderful.  The pastor that preached is from England and will not be voting, obviously, since he is not an American citizen.  It was refreshing to hear another point-of-view and understand that although we believe as Republicans, a lot of the time, we vote based on social issues, there are some Christians out there who vote Democrat.What's amazing about it in example is in the book of Esther, there is supposedly no mention of God.  I haven't gone back to check.  God is and will always be King of Kings and Lord of Lords... President of Presidents, etc...  With that in mind, no matter who wins (and the liberal media predicts Obama - and I predict him as well) God has His hand in this election and has His reasons for allowing certain things to happen.  Maybe it's not a bad thing Obama wins?  Who knows.  Either way, I'm a little bit more confident in that there has to be a trust in God.  Furthermore, 2 Corinthians 7:14 says, "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

I'm encouraged.

I thought I'd find quotes of how our politicians feel about different topics. Today: Abortion.

In an October interview with Newsweek, Pelosi stated, “To me it isn't even a question. God has given us a free will. We're all responsible for our actions. If you don't want an abortion, you don't believe in it, don't have one.”

This is what Sen. Barack Obama said last year at a conference of politically liberal religious leaders: “I cannot simply point to the teachings of my church or evoke God's will. I have to explain why abortion violates some principle that is...

“No, what I voted (was) against curtailing the right, criminalizing abortion. I voted against telling everyone else in the country that they have to accept my religiously based view that it's a moment of conception,” said Biden. “But then...

“I listened when he defended his unconditional support for unlimited abortions. He said that a woman shouldn't have to be-quote--'punished with a baby.' He said that right here in Johnstown--'punished with a baby'--and it's about time we called him...

“I believe that the potential for life begins at conception,” Hillary Clinton said. “I think abortion should remain legal, but it needs to be safe and rare.”

Republican candidate John McCain  in 1999 told the San Francisco Chronicle, "I'd love to see the point where (Roe v. Wade) is irrelevant, and could be replaced because abortion is no longer necessary. But certainly in the short term, or even the long term, I would not support repeal of Roe v. Wade, which would force X number of women in America to (undergo) illegal and dangerous operations." This led the National Right to Life Committee to claim that McCain had "no coherent pro-life philosophy and that he has no intention of implementing pro-life public policies should he become president."

As a friend of mine said, "I really don't have a dog in this hunt."
