Why the Hipocracy?
The senior editor of the New York Times made some unkind remarks about people of faith believing in a "wafer" being turned into the body of Christ (a foundational belief of the Catholic Church). He related the belief to that of believing in aliens. He also stated that politicians running for office should answer questions about their faith. Once again, it has become open season on Christians. No one would dare say anything negative in the same forum about Muslims or other non-christian sect. Why is that? Also, a quick search of media archives can not turn up any comments from this same senior editor asking the same questions about then Senator Obama. Why is that? For the sake of this country, I implore people of all persuasions to start connecting the dots.

Athiests
Why are most athiests so concerned about the actions of Christians? They do not want prayer in school, no Nativity scenes in public places, and the list goes on. What is it that they are so concerned about? Do they really think that the average Christian is out to make their life unbearable or to impose their religious will upon them. What really motivates an athiest? What is the driving "force" behind their behavior? True Christians will respect the beliefs and norms of athiests. Why is that behavior not reciprocated? One must ask the question why? Athiests search for issues to raise in our courts. It is hard to find cases whereby Christians assail athiests for their beliefs by using the courts. Why is that? I know the force behind the Christian's actions. I believe I know the force that drives the behaviors of most athiests. I think of it this way, if they are right and I am wrong, then in the end, what does it matter. However, if I am right and they are wrong, only goodness can prevail. How can they be concerned or adamantly oppose that?

Religious Discrimination
I can't understand why athiest groups are so intent on trying to rid our society of religious symbols, events, and other practices of one's faith, in particular, Christianity. What is the true motivation? Why should they really care if a school conducts prayer before the start of class, or perhaps places a Nativity scene on school property. Does it really offend them that much? Do they really think that "Christians" ultimately want to take over and control every aspect of their life? What is the true motivation for actions and behaviors of athiests? I think it is as simple as this...I will pray for them and if they are right and I am wrong then their life is unaffected. If I am right, and they are wrong, only good can come there way even though they may not be attuned to it. What are they afraid of? What is their motivation? Is it possible that they are perhaps being led in part by another force that wants nothing more than a complete surrender of any and all Christian beliefs? Most Christians will respect the beliefs of the athiest but athiests do not reciprocate? Why is that?
Budget Woes
How is that we must raise the nation's debt ceiling to maintain our high credit rating. We don't have the money to pay off the debt so we raise our borrowing limit, borrow more money to make debt payments, then all is OK? How does that work. Also, how is it that the current administration (they have all done it) can run up our debt and then without missing a beat cry out loud to the public that we must get spending under control?
