And if there be no righteousness there be no happiness. And if there be no righteousness nor happiness there be no punishment nor misery. And if these things are not there is no God. And if there is no God we are not, neither the earth; for there could have been no creation of things, neither to act nor to be acted upon; wherefore, all things must have vanished away.
It has a certain amount of validity. There can't be good without evil.

If there was no struggle and hardship, there would be no life.

Among that 46% who think interracial marriage should be illegal, I hope they don't call themselves pro-smaller government because if they did than that would make them big time hypocrites.

But they surely do, and i'm sure you know that.

I'm still shaking my head at that poll. 46%! But of course, around here they're always asking why blacks like myself vote Dem.

There's your answer. Well, at least a huge part of it.

Republicans just want to continue their old traditions, nothing wrong with that.

I don't understand how some people believe that you shouldn't be allowed to marry a person simply because their skin color is different. Their love for each other is what's important, not the color of their skin.

That was my point. It was in response to a post about some people trying to keep old traditions.

I wish you would have made the results of this poll public, I'm curious on who the 21 people who voted illegal are.

Eh Oh well takes time for some people to change.

I know some blacks feel the same way. And they live in very "liberal" areas. I think its less about politics and more abut ignorance. In my opinion
