Who are you to judge another human being? Who died and made you Christ? You are the exact kind of person John Adams and James Madison had in mind when they knew we needed a safeguard against religious fanaticism. They wanted a nation of people full of education and common sense, and what did we give them?...Texas.

I love God and I love Christ, and I love America. That means that my love for God and Christ is separate from my goals and intentions for the lives of every American. We are not a theocracy. That means when I vote, when I support a law [or not], when I support an issue, I ask myself, wwjad? What would John Adams do?
You might then want to consider wdjas (what did John Adams say)

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. - John Adams

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. -John Adams

On this 4th of July, I will pray that this nation keeps its faith in its founding intentions.
Pray first for the wisdom to know what those intentions were ... hint: it wasn't all powerful government denying God, granting privileges, or installing an illegal alien muslim as the Commander in Chief to continue ENDLESS WARS.

"Illegal alien Muslim as the Commander in Chief"? The most absurd thing I've read today...

Based on this....I stand by what I said earlier, and you really are proving my point about people like you. I am now that much stronger in my convictions.

Which part? Illegal Alien or Muslim ... because he's admitted both, as has several others, including his wife ... and Grandmother ... the government of Kenya.

That you find it absurd is just a demonstration of your own ignorance of the matter.

Look at the recent Supreme Court ruling in which Sotomayor showed her true radical colors. Kagan is OBVIOUSLY a lesbian. The fact that she will not admit it is disturbing and shows he lack of transparency and honesty. How many straight women have a female "partner"?

Gun rights concerns mean Kagan's nomination may be scored as a 'key vote' - TheHill.com

Is Elena Kagan a Lesbian? Media Ignores Four Harvard Students Outting Supreme Court Nominee, CBS News Muzzled by White House - Christian Newswire

No Lesbian on Supreme Court Shortlist? Maybe, Maybe Not... - Towleroad, More than gay news. More gay men
Wow you sure seem to be stuck on Ms. Kagan's sexual preference. She could be straight there has been no admission either way.
She will be a fine addition to the court.

Clearly, you didn't get the point in the post you responded to (right above yours):

My background is engineering as well, but I know a thesis is a lot more than just trying to discredit anything.

I wasn't suggesting she needed to credit or discredit the movement. I am, however, pointing to the fact that the acknowledgment section shows her direct family ties towards a radical socialist. That alone is suspicious.
