Don't take things to heart. Everyone these days seems holier than thou.

If you are to be Christ like - you have to be ready to put it all on the line...to stand up and speak the absolute truth...problem is if you act like a real Christian- you will face poverty and some persecution...The whole system is based on money and deception- That is what the great empire has become.....once you give up on the truth...decline will take place..and as we see the power and the strength of the empire is waning. Remember the revolutionary war cry back in the 1774..."no King but Jesus".....I know Americans don't like the monarchy but it is better to have the spirit of kingship reside in the hearts of men- than no spirit...what so ever.

The problem here just might be that your God is trying to get a message through to you and you're just refusing to listen.....maybe because of pride in your position, attachment to your beliefs......maybe that message could be STOP JUDGING OTHERS, stop making my Son look so bad with your hatred and judgments. Maybe he is. Maybe he isn't. However, I will say that even though I don't believe in "Satan" it certainly seems like your defenders here work for the imaginary "Satan." That should give you pause to stop and think and re-evaluate your polition. It's totally amazing, with all the information which has been given to you that you continue to IGNORE the information about the Mormon religion, and try with all your might to defame the candidate who claims to be a traditional Christian. Or maybe the problem is that somebody you trusted told you all these "bad" things about Obama and told you that a "good Christian" would vote for Romney, and that person has deceived you and you don't want to see it. Bottom line, you are not in Obama's head, you can't know what he's thinking, you don't know what, if any, parts of any sermon Rev. Wright ever preached Obama took seriously.

I would love to live in a world without nuclear weapons. But your conspiracy theory that President Obama is disarming America is nonsense and again makes conservatives out to be irrational haters and conspiracy nuts.

Do I need to bring those pictures into this thread so you can see some truth and facts?
That would be me. I never said "94% of that church's members white". I said the denomination to which Trinity UCC voluntarily belongs is 94% white. Based on the following Pew study, I was wrong it is only 91% white.

While Obama's congregation in Chicago is predominantly black, the UCC denomination overall is 91% white.

I believe I found where William's 90 % white comes from. In looking around I found that very number telling about the racial makeup of the high school that Wright graduated from in Philadelphia. Many times people just look at Wikipedia and find a number they like and run with it and that, I believe is what he did.
I responded to you the other day with a link showing the the denomination is 91% white. I've posted it again in this thread. Perhaps you could actually look at it instead of assuming I've made some mistake or extrapolated some other number.

"Putting it all on the line" doesn't mean constantly judging other people and telling them they are wrong and the world is going to hell if they don't straighten out. That's the problem here. There is a misunderstanding about when to tell people they are not living in accordance with the teachings. People who are NOT Christians are not going to care, and it is certainly not a way to bring people to the teachings of Christ to badger them all the time with all this fear mongering and judgement. The test of whether you are living the way Christ would want you to live is NOT the number of people who find you offensive. The person here who is judging everyone thinks she is doing the right thing because to her the proof is the fact that she's suffering and being attacked for her judgemental attitude. She has totally missed the truth and the point.

I am not a Christian and the example I have seen here would certainly lead me AWAY from that religion. Way, way too much pride and judgement, and no compassion. My god. Why would anyone want to live an "eternity" like that.

Never said the word Hell. You are a bearing false witness. I just post scripture from the bible and none of that said hell.
