I don't think any amount of praying or bible thumping can save this economy, it appears as if it is snowballing into a larger mess. if something isn't done about it, we might in the near future be witness to disorder, much more crime, much more homeless and much more hungry beggars. recession my as*, it'll be possibly the worst depression ever. and, I don't care what you do either. I'm in control of my own destiny, presently.

If you wish to pray to some one, you might try praying to the economical god. Maybe he will hear you and absorb our responsibility in the creation of a huge mess.

I even went as far as to start a thread topic on, tell me what we as individuals are doing to help this nation, funny the thread died. Shows to me there isn't anything much being done in the proactive phase, not being mentioned here any way.

So there you go and by the way I'm proud that we are drifting away from this country being founded on Christian moral, ethics and values, but given credit to something other than that which may be considered good and of great value.

It explains allot upon the development of the disasters.

Not a logical argument since Muslims kill those who refuse to practice their religion. We simply invite you to come and hope that you find Christ. See how that's different?

Listen up America, since the 1960s you have wanted a country with no God, and without moral accountability, yet you expect God to continue to bless this satanic nation. Now you have what you always wanted, and this is just the beginning. Enjoy!
Amen!

Yes, I agree. We need a leader who will purge the enemies from this country. We must eliminate the homosexuals, the atheists, the communist jews...

oh wait, someone beat you to this idea.

the economy is also a global problem.
pinning blame on republicans, or democrats? sounds like you're blaming demmies.
was it not a bush appointee who cried we need 750 billion to bailout wall st and banks, and no accountabilty.
what about the big corporations who outsourced american jobs, that didn't contribute to the problem either?
there are many reasons our economy is in shambles, and other countires as well, and you'd like to pin the blame on demmies, how shameful you really are. and how shallow minded to boot.
I've been noticing on the posts where people can add more than one quoted post to their responses. I'm do not know how that is done so I hope I did it right above.

I heard the other day on the Shawn Hannity show, (knew to me to listen to and it's interesting enough) Hannity said, the democrats (or Obama), "every one should own a home". And I thought, Hannity, that's a Bush statement. And that is right up there with lazy Americans.

I look at all like gossip, in that no one knows what or who said what as it changes from mouth to mouth, year to year, administration to administration. Then there is the saying, believe in none of what you read and only half of what you hear. So I go with that, but...

Got to know, isn't the creation of this bail out money the same as counterfeiting. And yes it did start with Bush and it's just recent so it is amazing how soon it is forgotten what is what.

But the printing of money without financial backing I'm thinking is the equivalence to counterfeit money and will do the same to our economy.

If I am wrong please educate me, because where I look at it, who in the world would possibly give us a line of credit for a loan. They're all broke too.

counterfeiting weakens an economy. (so does allot of other things, but there's a start)

So as a Christian, How did you vote?

I don't vote for any candidate who supports abortion. I see no difference between voting for a pro-abortion candidate and performing an abortion. Both are equally wrong.

Tells me how little you know about religions, and the history around them. Having said that, today's Christians... the ones that shout the most, couldn't be farther from Christ.

You wouldn't pray even if it would help. Stop worrying about bible thumpers, who are they hurting anyway. What, did God worship cause this disaster? If so how?

Who made history twice on Jan 20th?

Give up?

Why it was Obama. He is the first Halfrican-American to be sworn in as President and the first President to so badly blither babble and booble the Oath of Office that it had to be administered a second time.
