As big as this nation is, I would love to&lt;br&gt; more running for President. We have changed so much&lt;br&gt; since Washington and Jefferson. &amp;nbsp;This men were soldiers and farmers and yes became diplomats. &amp;nbsp;They&lt;br&gt; were't born to be President. &amp;nbsp;And yet they led this&lt;br&gt; nation to it's birth. &amp;nbsp;I am afraid those days are well behind us now and we look for candidates whom we&lt;br&gt;know to be liars, thieves, embezzlers, and the fact that they couldn't succeed in life at anything else.&lt;br&gt;They use their exposure to politics to write books &lt;br&gt;make speeches and sit for dinners. &amp;nbsp;These are the &lt;br&gt;our qualifications today for world leaders. &amp;nbsp;Take &lt;br&gt;another Washington or Jefferson and we would laugh&lt;br&gt;them right off the platform or better yet still,&lt;br&gt;the party would never pick them in the first place.&lt;br&gt;Why! &amp;nbsp;They are too sincere, they would be for the&lt;br&gt;people and that would be a bad thing, they would&lt;br&gt;listen and see our problems, they would be from the&lt;br&gt;common stock of this nation, (not acceptable).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Good luck America.

Too bad he has never cried. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;02 Chuck Norris counted to infinity - twice. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;03 Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;04 If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;05 Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;06 When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;07 Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck Norris met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;08 Chuck Norris has already been to Mars; that's why there are no signs of life there. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;09 They once made a Chuck Norris toilet paper, but it wouldn't take shit from anybody. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;10 A blind man once stepped on Chuck Norris' shoe.

Instead of taking your understanding of our cultural foundations from a few words inscribed on a coin or carved from stone into a building, I would suggest actually reading what the forefathers said. I'll bet you a million dollars you've never read, the constitution, declaration, federalist papers from start to finish. Begin there and then we'll all have a chat about what the forefathers believed. Here are some cliff notes:&lt;br&gt;1. The forefathers were deists.&lt;br&gt;2. The reason we have the separation of church and state is that the secular (yes they were secular) founders of our country saw religion as the easiest means to creating indestructible factions (a problem according to democratic theory).&lt;br&gt;3. Like Richard Dawkins of the God delusion the founders saw factions that were formed through faith as a problem inherent to all &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; and that is that &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; have no necessary grounding in reality. Believers can be told to believe and they just do. This is a huge problem for a democracy which depends on an educated electorate to elect representatives to solve real problems, and not meander through empty religious platitudes and dogmatic law such as legislating against homosexual marriage or abortions. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it your book that said judge not. Oh yea it was. I bet you've never read the Bible either. You see those footprints in the sand I'm tired of carrying you on my back. Your obese ignorance will be the weight that sinks us all.&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425025</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 21:28:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425025</guid><dc:creator>--NSMSNBC</dc:creator><description>Thank you FirstRead for this blurb to brighten our otherwise dull day (naturally, I'm speaking for everybody else blogging).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As one who deifies and worships science, I also have to say I support Mike Huckabee following Barack &amp;quot;it is true what they say about black men--they make great presidents&amp;quot; Obama. &amp;nbsp;While, his religious positions offend me, I have stared into the eyes that are Mike Huckabee and I see a gentle creature--like a non-gay teletubby. &amp;nbsp;I get the impression that Huckabee understands that our nation is a diverse nation, and he would in actuality abide by separation of church and state. &amp;nbsp;After all, we wouldn't want evolution taught in our churches, unless you are progressive and Catholic like me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the words of Stephen Colbert ... &amp;quot;[i]n my view, all religions are equal in that they’re tied for second after Catholicism.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;... and that's tonight's word.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425032</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 21:31:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425032</guid><dc:creator>Saddened, New Mexico</dc:creator><description>How sad that some cannot look beyond the excerpt from the endorsement and see it for what it is.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How sad that we have to make a mockery of people's beliefs to justify our own.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How sad that we have stooped so low as to not allow the freedom of expression and beliefs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How sad that we have become so self-righteous and closed-minded.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shame on us America.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425038</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 21:32:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425038</guid><dc:creator>Uncle Jed</dc:creator><description>&amp;quot;It's good to have a bible belt endorsment. &amp;nbsp;The left gives in to the extremist of the world. &amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;See?

Are you saying that Hillary shouldn't have forgiven Bill? Isn't she sort of more Christian than you are for forgiving instead of judging. I'm no big Hillary fan but last time I checked it's still a mortal sin to most Christian religious faiths to get divorced. So are you saying that Hillary is more Christian than half of those who stand in the front of the church like the hippocrates do and yell about there religion. Woops...don't your opinions at least have to make sense to you. I mean you can't just say one thing and then say the opposite in the next sentence and not expect your head to explode eventually.

(Sent Monday, October 22, 2007 5:03 PM)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Well, Don, while you're in DC next you might want to take a trip to the National Archive and check out Ammendment One to the US Constitution. You know... that document that our country is FOUNDED ON. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It reads: Congress shall MAKE NO LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So the very document that set up our nation specifically states that religion is not a subject that shall be addressed by the Government. The government and the nation are founded on the belief that everyone is equal before the LAW. &amp;nbsp;The law is based on the English Common Law system. &amp;nbsp;The English Common Law system is based on the Magna Carta. &amp;nbsp;The Magna Carta was a movement against the belief that the King was annointed by God and could do whatever he wanted without consulting the rest of the Lords. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am not against people of faith. &amp;nbsp;What I am against is people of faith throwing around their beliefs, thinking that that automatically wins an argument, and that their faith is above reproach. &amp;nbsp;You'd get alot less flack if you just lived your life and stopped trying to inject faith into politics. &amp;nbsp;But when you try to get politicians to base decisions of national import on a system of belief that I, personally, rank only slightly higher than astrology... I'm going to let you know what I think. &amp;nbsp;And if you have a problem with that the Constituion (and not God or the Bible) gives you the right to disagree publicly. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425138</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:08:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425138</guid><dc:creator>cle</dc:creator><description>If Half of you, just half, payed attention to polotics instead of browbeating everything you&lt;br&gt;Might have a better understanding of whats going on.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But this is normal behavior for america.&lt;br&gt;Gl everyone I for one am going to objectively read and decide on what candidate i want in office if you do not do the same.

I appreciate his view and endorsement. Most entertainers are liberals and have no true regard for life. They cry about the Iraq war,they like drinking, using drugs, &amp;nbsp;are violence, and love injustice. If they truly cared about life they would seek legislation to stop the over 20,000 deaths yearly due to drunk driving. They would seek legislation to stop domestic violence which has a death rate of about 30,000 yearly. And they would seek legislation to end the innocent bloodshed of nearly 4,000 aborted children daily. The victims of crimes see the criminal escape justice because the liberals fight for their rights more than the &amp;nbsp;victims rights.

Instead of taking your understanding of our cultural foundations from a few words inscribed on a coin or carved from stone into a building, I would suggest actually reading what the forefathers said. I'll bet you a million dollars you've never read, the constitution, declaration, federalist papers from start to finish. Begin there and then we'll all have a chat about what the forefathers believed. Here are some cliff notes:&lt;br&gt;1. The forefathers were deists.&lt;br&gt;2. The reason we have the separation of church and state is that the secular (yes they were secular) founders of our country saw religion as the easiest means to creating indestructible factions (a problem according to democratic theory).&lt;br&gt;3. Like Richard Dawkins of the God delusion the founders saw factions that were formed through faith as a problem inherent to all &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; and that is that &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; have no necessary grounding in reality. Believers can be told to believe and they just do. This is a huge problem for a democracy which depends on an educated electorate to elect representatives to solve real problems, and not meander through empty religious platitudes and dogmatic law such as legislating against homosexual marriage or abortions. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it your book that said judge not. Oh yea it was. I bet you've never read the Bible either. You see those footprints in the sand I'm tired of carrying you on my back.

Hillary, Oboma, Gulliani and Romney do not speak from their hearts, their &amp;nbsp;convictions do not lead them, their goal to become president leads them. They will say whatever they think is politically correct to get them elected. Or some will say nothing, which is worse. The only one I have seen in the debates that has impressed me is Huckabee, I know you cant run an election from the backseat of your car, but maybe if enough people with influence will stand up,then Maybe he could become the David of our time, Lord knows I country needs someone of the stature of David to bring us together, lets get rid of these polarizing politicians and elect a strong moral president that can bring this country back together, united we stand, divided we fall. </description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425231</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:29:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425231</guid><dc:creator>Rosr Knows</dc:creator><description>Bryant Lister: They already have a book of fairy tales taught in public schools, it's all about the pseudo-&amp;quot;science&amp;quot; of &amp;quot;Evolution&amp;quot;... that unproven and unprovable THEORY that all the glories of the universe (and of your eyeballs that are reading this) just &amp;quot;happened by chance&amp;quot;...

Big Friggin deal. I have never seen such stupidity as was regularly shown on his weekly TV show Walker Texas Ranger. In this show, Norris and his black side kick, constantly had to battle,&amp;quot;evil white gangs&amp;quot; in Texas. It got to the point where it was a standing joke with my sister, after I pointed it out to her, and she is a liberal. Mike Huckabee is a race baiting, fool, who will never be elected as President, simply because there are too many good white folks in this nation sick of his race pandering. He belongs down there with Sharpton and Jackson. Lest anyone take this opinion of displeasure for Chuck Norris's support of Huckleberry finn, as racist, NO, sorry friends the producers and writers of Walker Texas Ranger are clearly the racists.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425237</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:32:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425237</guid><dc:creator>xyz, Indiana</dc:creator><description>Hey Bryant Lister, you are sooo ignorant. &amp;nbsp;have you ever taken an evolution course in college? &amp;nbsp;I took a graduate one at a major university and also got a masters degree in biology and you know what was said over and over in the course? &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;Well we can assume this&amp;quot;...assumption is not science, nor is filling in major gaps in their science with assumption. &amp;nbsp;That is why macro evolution is still a theory. &amp;nbsp;Do your homwork next time.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425238</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:32:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425238</guid><dc:creator>Michael</dc:creator><description>Hm. &amp;nbsp;I don't blindly follow the media, so I don't hate Bush. &amp;nbsp;And Chuck Norris is basiclly the man. &amp;nbsp;Just gaze upon his beard!</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425239</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:32:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425239</guid><dc:creator>super mike   Altavista VA</dc:creator><description>It's funny in our time that it is ok to be a muslim, catholic, hundu, athesist, nazi, morman, but if you proclaim to be a christian, you are called bible thumbing nut and all shorts of bad things. &amp;nbsp;People, this country was built on christian faith.

Here you go.&lt;br&gt;Your religiosity is not what the USA was founded on. Instead of taking your understanding of our cultural foundations from a few words inscribed on a coin or carved from stone into a building, I would suggest actually reading what the forefathers said. I'll bet you a million dollars you've never read, the constitution, declaration, federalist papers from start to finish. Begin there and then we'll all have a chat about what the forefathers believed. Here are some cliff notes:&lt;br&gt;1. The forefathers were deists.&lt;br&gt;2. The reason we have the separation of church and state is that the secular (yes they were secular) founders of our country saw religion as the easiest means to creating indestructible factions (a problem according to democratic theory).&lt;br&gt;3. Like Richard Dawkins of the God delusion the founders saw factions that were formed through faith as a problem inherent to all &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; and that is that &amp;quot;believers&amp;quot; have no necessary grounding in reality. Believers can be told to believe and they just do. This is a huge problem for a democracy which depends on an educated electorate to elect representatives to solve real problems, and not meander through empty religious platitudes and dogmatic law such as legislating against homosexual marriage or abortions. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it your book that said judge not. Oh yea it was. I bet you've never read the Bible either. You see those footprints in the sand I'm tired of carrying you on my back. Your obese ignorance will be the weight that sinks us all.&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425246</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:34:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425246</guid><dc:creator>Concerned Citizen, Atlanta, GA</dc:creator><description>Bryant Lister, Gresham, Oregon- I really think you need to do a little more investigating before you make such arrogant comments.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425247</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:34:25 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425247</guid><dc:creator>Al, LA, CA</dc:creator><description>I am laughing at his comparison of King David to Huckabee.

I would definitely rather be a conservative than liberal. As for that subject you all need to look up the difference between Democrat, Republican, Liberal, and Conservative... they have nothing to do with eachother democrats nowadays just usually tend to be liberal, by the way if you want a look at the original democrats, go back to FDRs time and look at what he did then, and see what he did during his presidency, he stopped newspapers from printing terrible things about WW2, limited people from speaking out, WON THE WAR,and MASSIVELY OVERTURNED THE DEGRADATION OF OUR ECONOMY. WW2 was our last victory (excluding minor operations and Desert Storm)you wanna know why? POLOTICS. You wanna talk about abusing rights as a president? Look at FDR, oh and wait a sec here, Bill clinton took troops into(I forget which country) WITHOUT SENATE APPROVAL. I don't like Bush because of the situation with out border and honestly thats why you should too, STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE WAR, those of you who do not know this I will clue you in, the houses are the ONLY ones in our government that can make war/treaties, not the executive branch *cough president* Bush may have been for the war, but the Senate had to approve, thank you good night, and if you doubt our intentions look at Japan, Germany, and South Korea. South Korea has the FOURTH largest economy in the world who helped them, oh wait us. Who gives more annually THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY to third world nations AND put europe back on its feet after WW2 (which btw has not paid us back), oh wait us again. We're there to help them not take over. If you think Bush is going at it all wrong, guess what? he listens to his generals, lets see if you could do better? no? didn't think so, shut up about it. I am so sick of watching you people fight, I am neither Democrat nor Republican (if I had to choose I would choose the more conservative because I feel my needs as an American are fulfilled better that way...) I am an American, no not afro-latin-oriental-whatever the hell-american, just plain ole' American, the sooner you realize that, the better off our country will be.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425252</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:35:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425252</guid><dc:creator>Rose Kraus</dc:creator><description>I would like the America I grew up in to be around when my grandsons grow up. &amp;nbsp;Get a clue people, take God totally out and this Country will go down the tube. &amp;nbsp;Go Mike Huckabee AND Chuck Norris. &amp;nbsp;When prayer was in the schools, the killing of classmates was absent. &amp;nbsp;Huey, Kokomo, IN</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425253</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:35:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425253</guid><dc:creator>Craig Washington State</dc:creator><description>Many of you people should be embarrased.

Most every successful business person, and the majority of educated persons in the United States are one or both of the above as well as being Republican. And as far as being a &amp;quot;secular nation&amp;quot; I suspect that the person who wrote that is not very educated nor familier with our great nation. It was founded on Christian principles and will only be great as long as we recognize that. And as for &amp;quot;loser movie stars like Ronald Regan&amp;quot;. Whoever wrote that must have been born last year or just got off the boat from another country. Regan was only one of the greatest Presidents and statesmen that this nation has ever seen. So go ahead you tree hugging bleeding heart liberals, vote for self absorbed Queen Hillary and see where that gets you. Perhaps you haven't seen what has happened with Congress. Their approval rating is WAY behind President Bush's. Guess that shows which is the most popular. And by the way RN, I have two Masters and a PhD.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425358</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:01:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425358</guid><dc:creator>Deke, Pittsburgh, PA</dc:creator><description>Chuck Norris's endorsement won't hunt.

It isn't at all difficult to distinguish between the idiots and the intellectuals. Mr. Huckabee was an exceptional Governer. Unfortunately, as it was with Bill Clinton; the only media focus will probaly be on his negative attributes (of which I have found none for Mike). &amp;nbsp;Those who do not understand what it means to be a Christian, fear it. And we as humans tend to criticize what we fear. I admire Chuck Norris for standing up for his faith. He knows the source of his strength, and is not ashamed to say so. I am from Arkansas. No, I am not a &amp;quot;hillbilly.&amp;quot; I actually live in a house in a suburban neighborhood, have a computer, a dog and a CAR (not a &amp;quot;truck&amp;quot;). I'd rather be here than anywhere! &amp;nbsp; </description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425372</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:05:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425372</guid><dc:creator>Jim787 Front Royal, VA</dc:creator><description>Hey Doomis...you left out Arnold, Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis, John Wayne and Robert Duvall.

I think you can thank Thomas Jefferson for stating our rights (#1 Freedom of Speech) are actually granted to us by a higher being--NOT the Constitution. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C Daniels Huntersville, NC (Sent Monday, October 22, 2007 6:32 PM)&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;No C Daniels, by all means be picky. &amp;nbsp;We're talking about the very foundations of our country and the documents that the founders drafted are very specific on these matters.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At the fact of the matter is that the Bible (what you would consider to be the literal word of God, I'm assuming) says absolutely nothing about freedom of speech. &amp;nbsp;Not. One. Word. &amp;nbsp;Just like the only thing that Constitution says about religion is that the Government doesn't get to say anything on the subject either for or against. &amp;nbsp;The country is not based on ANY religioun and to say otherwise is simply WRONG. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And if you have a Thomas Jefferson quote that says that our rights are endowed by God please post a link or at least cite the work so others can look it up. &amp;nbsp;I studied American government in college, read most of the works of the founders and have NEVER heard ANYTHING that even closely resembled Jefferson saying that our freedoms were endowed by God. &amp;nbsp;We have certain inalienable rights that include &amp;quot;Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Property&amp;quot; is the closest I can think of but that was the Declaration of Independance and NOT the Constituion. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;PS&amp;gt; For all of the people claiming that liberals want to make Christianity illegal etc... DISAGREEING WITH YOUR POINT OF VIEW DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A PERSONAL ATTACK. THE FACT THAT YOU ARE SO INSECURE THAT YOU REACT THIS POORLY WHEN PEOPLE QUESTION YOUR FAITH OR YOUR RELIGION SHOULD BE INSTRUCTIVE TO YOU.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425410</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:15:03 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425410</guid><dc:creator>Carlos Hernando, Toledo, Oh.</dc:creator><description>It's pretty obvious that some of the people on here believe everything they hear in the mainstream media and don't know a thing about the Bible or science.

Mike Huckabee will. </description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425427</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:17:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425427</guid><dc:creator>oldfart, Los Angeles, Calif.</dc:creator><description>Actors live in a world to themselves, called fiction.

But I'll try to educate some people here that sound like they didn't pass the third grade. First of all, If evolution was true, that we evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys on the earth? Second of all, why is it that the scientists continue to change their theories and discoveries concerning this earth. If they truly believed in what their &amp;quot;research&amp;quot; is telling them, then they would stand on it and not waver. Scientists are very smart people but I don't trust man(mankind)because we're so quick to believe a lie before we would except the truth. Don't think that's true, next time tell someone the honest truth about what you think about them and see how many friends or family you have left.Last but never least, True believers in GOD (and there is a difference between believers and true believers)are merely concerned about the direction this world is heading in and and the souls of the people who occupy it. Now if you don't what to live beyond this world when it passes and trust it will pass, then continue living your lives the way you want to but know this, you will be accountable for what you do good or bad. GOD will not be mocked! and if you think he will not repay those who continue to do so, keep watching the signs. And another thing, everthing that has happened in this world thus far is written in the BIBLE, and those things that are to come are all ready taking place. Don't believe me, read the comments on these e-mails along with any other comments people give when it concerns GOD or HIS people. Don't mean to preach, but If I was to sit back and not respond to things being said about my Creator, then I will have to answer for that one day. Just trying to educate not condemnate.....I will vote for Huckabee and pray that this country gets back on the path it was founded on.......</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425438</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:21:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425438</guid><dc:creator>Ricky R.

He was here when it started and still wants to be a part of this great nation. Why are you liberals so worried about him? If you took a poll I bet more people believe in God and believe he should have a part in our country than not, and isn't that what a democracy is all about, majority rule. It also is incredible to me that the self-loathing alot of liberal Americans have for being an American. I am still waiting for Alec Baldwin, Susan Sarandon and Mrs. Sarandon (Tim Robbins), Sean Penn and the like to establish residency somewhere else. I have come to view most of my fellow Americans as whiney, over-weight, over-indulged, out of shape and spoiled little brats that sniffle at the slightest hint of any inconvenience. Why do we sacrifice the good of many for the whining of the few? &amp;nbsp; </description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425447</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:24:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425447</guid><dc:creator>Allan McDonald</dc:creator><description>First on a list of many. This country was founded on freedom of religon... and over 80% of this country's population is Christian. It has taken over 30 years of what Madeline Ohare had &lt;br&gt;destroyed for the back seat Christians to see what non Christian believers can do to our society, 1st on the local level, take God out of our schools, and put government sex education in its place, with a pack of condoms for every student, saying go ahead and have sex... why is it the school's responsibility to educate us about sex, I was raised by parents, it is our responsibility to teach our kids, not the school system.If my child did wrong in school, I gave the principal and teachers my permission to discipline my child, then when they got home, I gave them my punishment after all, my child is my offspring and the way they act falls back on both parents and what values we as parents were raised up believing. I would feel much more comfortable, knowing that whomever was elected as Commander in Chief, President, had moral values that were of Christian belief, rather than those who don't really know what sex they are or prefer. Christians need to stand up now and let our voices be heard and fight back to regain what was lost and preserve God's name and our Christian beliefs It's not Christianity on trial here, but the right to worship is. It is really sad to read these comments and not one person is secure enough in his own way to leave his GOD given name at the end of his or hers statement.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425448</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:25:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425448</guid><dc:creator>Andre, Atlanta, Georgia</dc:creator><description>Contrary to popular belief, America is not a democracy, it is a Chucktatorship.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425449</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:26:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425449</guid><dc:creator>Ed, San Antonio, TX</dc:creator><description>The last thing we need is a president who will force religious ideals and doctrine on the people. &amp;nbsp;The religious right needs to face the fact that not everyone believes as they do, and we all have the right of representation too. &amp;nbsp;If you want your children to learn religious doctrine, send them to church or a church based private school, don't expect the public school system to take your BELIEFS, which are not proven fact, and base the entire curriculum around them.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There is a very good reason for seperation of church and state.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425451</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:26:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425451</guid><dc:creator>JPFree, Burley, ID</dc:creator><description>For folks who claim no interest in Norris, thay sure have a lot to say about him</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425452</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:27:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425452</guid><dc:creator>GLH, Altoona PA</dc:creator><description>Could have been worse, he could have endorsed Hillary, and said she was a great candidate because, well, er, hang on, I'm really trying to find something to say about her that would be impressive....but for some reason I cannot find a single thing she has ever done that merits her running and bragging about.......

We have a freedom to choose whatever religion we feel (or no religion) and we also have a right to not have the government set up a National Religion, but there is no legal or actual basis for the theory of Separation of Church and State, whether you think there should be one or not. The cool thing is, if you think it should be in the Constitution contact your representative or senator and ask them to introduce legislation to amend the Constitution.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425540</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Oct 2007 23:52:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425540</guid><dc:creator>Glenda McAbee</dc:creator><description>Chuck Norris is a true gentleman.

It's hillarious to see the lib's attack for the sake of attacking. Not a mention of the rocket scientists supporting their cause. Let me think here, Rosie, Oprah, Baldwin, Penn, the majority of comedians who make a living twisting the truth for a laugh. I know Mr. Lib, we Republicans don't have a sense of humor - partly right - we live in the real world unlike the make believe fantasy of the left. Take heart &amp;quot;right&amp;quot;, the left may win the day, but they'll fester in the putrid decay they create and we can pick up the pieces to continue where our forefathers started.

If you hate Chuck Norris and Huckabee, why the hell did you read this and even bother wasting your time on it in the first place? Second, if you are such political experts, why are you blogging instead of running for office? I am here because I respect and appreciate Chuck and Huckabee but I do not claim to be any kind of political expert, nor do I want to be. So, if you think you are really that much better than Chuck and Huckabee, get up off your lazy butt, stop blogging and IMing hot chicks you have no idea you live in your mom's basement and do something about it!!!</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425582</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:05:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425582</guid><dc:creator>Ione Benner, New River, AZ</dc:creator><description>Mike Huckabee is young and good looking. &amp;nbsp;I am suspicious of another Arkansas governor.

I can't stand it watching my party attack President Bush for a war they were for and voted for and now want to blame the other party for it because it's not popular anymore, it stink's.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425614</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:14:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425614</guid><dc:creator>Kev</dc:creator><description>Chuck Norris visited The Virgin Islands. &amp;nbsp;When he left, they were just called The Islands.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Chuck Norris does not sleep...he waits.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Outer space exists because it is afraid to live on the same planet as Chuck Norris.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Chuck Norris' hand is the ONLY hand that beats a Royal Flush.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;All Hail the Chucktatorship!</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425617</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:14:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425617</guid><dc:creator>Desperate, Overland Park Kansas</dc:creator><description>Paul, what writings have you ever read? If you have read any of the founders writings you will find exactly what I said in previous posts to be true. The founders were deists, not Christians. They set up a seperation of church and state to purposefully block religious factions. What are you claiming to have read? Your interpretations are factually inaccurate. It was I who challenged you to read. Accept I cited which sources back up my opinion. Funny, you didn't back up any of your opinions with citations. Liberals are not making being Christian a crime. We just don't want to hear your lunacy in our schools. What if your Christian child had to learn about the Koran in public school. Not to fun when the tables are turned.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425618</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:15:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425618</guid><dc:creator>Bill, London, Ontario, Canada</dc:creator><description>Ok I have some big time issues here. i am a Canadian, loud and proud one at that.. and no not one of the anti war peace and love type either.

All Bush has done in 8 years is try and blow other countries up and watched his own economy go right down the shitter. To me it would make sense to elect someone who can pull your economy out of the red and back into the black, create employement and etc etc, and never mind running around country to country like a chicken with it's head lopped off</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425620</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:15:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425620</guid><dc:creator>dave, st. johns michigan </dc:creator><description>If I may quote Douglass Adams &lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Lets just face the truth it doesn't matter who they are all out for themselves.

Our great fore fathers started this country as a republic. The masses are suppose to rule not the specialty groups out for themselves. As Plato stated although this isn't an exact quote - due to specialty groups being allowed to pressure government officials into decisions and laws a democratic society will turn into a totalitarian nation. And if you don't believe that take a good look at corporate america and our government officials and all the new laws we get all the time.

All of them also,of course, said that Chuck Norris had the same right as they do to say what he believes. The only difference, in my humble opinion, is that the critics believe strongly that what they believe is &amp;quot;the only truly right way to think&amp;quot; and how dare anyone state what they think when it is not supportive of their line of thinking, even if nobody knew who they were before writing their criticisim. What ever has happened to the old,(and I don't know the exact quote), I don't agree with what you say but I will fight to the death for your right to say it. I believe this is partly what the American government was created for in the first place. Or am I thinking of some other country and all my history and government teachers were wrong??</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425752</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 01:55:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425752</guid><dc:creator>Buge Fowler Gulf Shores,Al.36542</dc:creator><description>I go with Chuck.Bill Clinton was the 1st.black presdent.Hillary would be the 1st.gay presedent,</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425759</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 02:05:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425759</guid><dc:creator>THOMAS BOVARD OGDEN  UTAH</dc:creator><description>I haven't herd enough from Huckabee i would like to know where he stands on the military but if chuck is backing him than he must back it strongly.

Deist, avid separationist.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt; Benjamin Franklin [1706-1790] &amp;nbsp;American public official, writer, scientist, and printer who played a major part in the American Revolution.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason.&amp;quot; Poor Richard's Almanack, 1758&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Lighthouses are more helpful than churches.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;He (the Rev. Mr. Whitefield) used, indeed, sometimes to pray for my conversion, but never had the satisfaction of believing that his prayers were heard.&amp;quot; Franklin's Autobiography&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;In the affairs of the world, men are saved, not by faith, but by the want of it.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“Some volumes against Deism fell into my hands. They were said to be the substance of sermons preached at Boyle’s Lecture. It happened that they produced on me an effect precisely the reverse of what was intended by the writers; for the arguments of the Deists, which were cited in order to be refuted, appealed to me much more forcibly than the refutation itself. In a word, I soon became a thorough Deist.”&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.&amp;quot; 1787 letter to his nephew&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature.&amp;quot; Unknown&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Religions are all alike - founded upon fables and mythologies.&amp;quot; Unknown&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;To talk of immaterial existences is to talk of nothings. To say that the human soul, angels, God, are immaterial, is to say they are nothings, or that there is no God, no angels, no soul. I cannot reason otherwise: but I believe I am supported in my creed of materialism by Locke, Tracy, and Stewart. At what age of the Christian church this heresy of immaterialism, this masked atheism, crept in, I do not know. But a heresy it certainly is. Jesus told us indeed that 'God is a spirit,' but he has not defined what a spirit is, nor said that it is not matter. And the ancient fathers generally, if not universally, held it to be matter: light and thin indeed, an etherial gas; but still matter.&amp;quot; letter to John Adams, August 15, 1820&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined, and imprisoned, yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites.&amp;quot; Notes on Virginia&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes&amp;quot; Letter to von Humboldt, 1813&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as His father, in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter.&amp;quot; Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own&amp;quot; Letter to H. Spafford, 1814&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;But a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandizing their oppressors in Church and State.&amp;quot; in a letter to S. Kercheval, 1810&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;...an amendment was proposed by inserting the words, 'Jesus Christ...the holy author of our religion,' which was rejected 'By a great majority in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and the Mohammedan, the Hindoo and the Infidel of every denomination.'&amp;quot; From Jefferson's biography&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;I never told my religion, nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I have judged others' religions by their lives, for it is from our lives and not our words that our religions must be read.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The authors of the gospels were unlettered and ignorant men and the teachings of Jesus have come to us mutilated, misstated and unintelligible.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God.”&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“It is not to be understood that I am with him [Jesus] in all his doctrines. I am a Materialist.”&lt;br&gt;Not ENOUGH FOR YOU! &amp;nbsp;Well here are some more....&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;from our founding fathers! Wake up!&lt;br&gt; James Madison [1751-1836] American president and political theorist. Popularly known as the &amp;quot;Father of the Constitution.&amp;quot; More than any other framer he is responsible for the content and form of the First Amendment. also see 'First Amendment' section of the 'Law &amp;amp; Government' section&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry, and persecution.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;In no instance have . . . the churches been guardians of the liberties of the people.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise.&amp;quot; April 1, 1774&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;...the number, the industry, and the morality of the priesthood, and the devotion of the people, have been manifestly increased by the total separation of the church from the State&amp;quot; Letter to Robert Walsh, Mar. 2, 1819&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Every new and successful example, therefore, of a perfect separation between the ecclesiastical and civil matters, is of importance; and I have no doubt that every new example will succeed, as every past one has done, in showing that religion and Government will both exist in greater purity the less they are mixed together&amp;quot; Letter to Edward Livingston, July 10, 1822&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;;John Adams&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;John Adams [1735-1826] 2d President of the United States&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.&amp;quot; Treaty of Tripoly, article 11&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Let the human mind loose.

Where are fifty gospels condemned as spurious by the bull of Pope Gelasius? Where are forty wagon-loads of Hebrew manuscripts burned in France, by order of another pope, because of suspected heresy? Remember the Index Expurgato-rius, the Inquisition, the stake, the axe, the halter, and the guillotine; and, oh! horrible, the rack! This is as bad, if not worse, than a slow fire. Nor should the Lion's Mouth be forgotten. Have you considered that system of holy lies and pious frauds that has raged and triumphed for 1,500 years.&amp;quot; letter to John Taylor, 1814, quoted in In God We Trust and 2000 Years of Disbelief&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles.&amp;quot; letter to Thomas Jefferson, June 20, 1815&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles?&amp;quot; etter to Thomas Jefferson, June 20, 1815&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;As I understand the Christian religion, it was, and is, a revelation. But how has it happened that millions of fables, tales, legends, have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them the most bloody religion that ever existed?&amp;quot; letter to F.A. Van der Kamp, December 27, 1816&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;God is an essence that we know nothing of. Until this awful blasphemy is got rid of, there never will be any liberal science in the world.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;this awful blashpemy&amp;quot; that he refers to is the myth of the Incarnation of Christ, from Ira D. Cardi&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Let the human mind loose. It must be loose. It will be loose. Superstition and dogmatism cannot confine it.&amp;quot; letter to his son, John Quincy Adams, November 13, 1816, from James A. Haught, ed., 2000 Years of Di&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service [formation of the American governments] had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven...”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And oh...this guy....&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;this one is for &amp;quot;gentlewarrior&amp;quot;...where did you get your facts from? &amp;nbsp;The Bible? &amp;nbsp;Educate yourself idiot!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Abraham Lincoln [1809-1865] &amp;nbsp;American president&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In 2000 Years of Disbelief by James A. Haught, Lincoln is mentioned on pages 125 through 127. From the material presented it would seem that Lincoln as a young man was an avid anti-christian and most likely an atheist. In his later years, he came to believe in God, but still was anti-religious in the sense that he rejected organized religion. Some selections from Haught: John T. Stuart, Lincoln's first law partner: &amp;quot;He was an avowed and open infidel, and sometimes bordered on Atheism...He went further against Christian beliefs and doctrines and principles than any man I ever heard.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The Bible is not my book nor Christianity my profession. I could never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma.&amp;quot; Joseph Lewis quoting Lincoln in a 1924 speech in New York&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;My earlier views of the unsoundness of the Christian scheme of salvation and the human origin of the scriptures have become clearer and stronger with advancing years, and I see no reason for thinking I shall ever change them.&amp;quot; Lincoln in a letter to Judge J.S. Wakefield, after the death of Willie Lincoln&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As a young man Lincoln apparently wrote a manuscript that he planned to publish, which vehemently argued against the divine origin of the Bible and the Christian scheme of salvation. Samuel Hill, a friend and mentor, convinced him to drop it, considering the disastrous consequences it would have on his political career. William H Herndon, a former law partner, wrote a biography on Lincoln titled: &amp;quot;The true story of a great life&amp;quot;. In it Herndon discusses Lincoln's religious views extensively. Gordon Leidner has collected some quotations from Lincoln's later years in which he invokes God, and he makes the argument that Lincoln became a sincere believer. It seems to me he did come to believe in God, but he never accepted organized Christianity.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;It will not do to investigate the subject of religion too closely, as it is apt to lead to Infidelity.&amp;quot; Manford's Magazine, quoted from The Religious Beliefs of Our Presidents by Franklin Steiner, p. 144.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;and some more great American Atheists!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Thomas Edison [1847-1931] &amp;nbsp;American inventor&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;I have never seen the slightest scientific proof of the religious ideas of heaven and hell, of future life for individuals, or of a personal God.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;I do not believe that any type of religion should ever be introduced into the public schools of the United States.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;	&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;So far as religion of the day is concerned, it is a damned fake...

The forefathers were deists.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;X! &amp;nbsp;One could not be more incorrect. &amp;nbsp;While it's debateable that Jefferson may have been a &amp;quot;deist&amp;quot;, a substantial number of the remaining Founders were practicing Christians of one form or another, including George Washington. &amp;nbsp;One of the signers of the Declaration was even an ordained minister (I'm not sure which, though).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;2. The reason we have the separation of church and state is that the secular (yes they were secular) founders of our country saw religion as the easiest means to creating indestructible factions (a problem according to democratic theory).&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;?!?! &amp;nbsp;Isn't this actually quoting Karl Marx? &amp;nbsp;Maybe not, but sure sounds like him. &amp;nbsp;The fact is the &amp;quot;separation of church and state&amp;quot; isn't anywhere in the Declaration, the Constitution, or even the Articles of Confederation (if you know what those were). &amp;nbsp;These words first appeared in a private correspondence written by Th. Jefferson to, I believe, a religious group in New England, and the full context of the letter basically stated that any formal religious dispute within a state lies under the jurisdiction of that state, not with the federal government. &amp;nbsp;But why should anything be taken in context? &amp;nbsp;You wouldn't be able to say anything then.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And, furthermore, the First Amendment clearly states &amp;quot;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;That means that congress cannot establish a national religion. &amp;nbsp;It also means that it cannot prohibit a person from freely exercising their religion, regardless of that person's physical location. &amp;nbsp;Thus, we are not limited to our &amp;quot;free exercise&amp;quot; only at home or in church, but wherever we please, as is anyone of any faith. &amp;nbsp;Also, there were some states that did have established religions, since the First Amendment only applies to &amp;quot;Congress&amp;quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you tolerance hypocrits (intolerants who preach tolerance) really want to debate your positions, let's at least start with the facts. &amp;nbsp;Then again, things like facts and substantive ideas don't work for you. &amp;nbsp;We Christians, conservatives, and most others of varying faiths and philosophies, do disagree with one another, but in most cases we still have respect for one another's deeply-held beliefs, and can be open and civil in our debates. &amp;nbsp;That quality comes from knowing God's love, grace, and mercy. &amp;nbsp;I would hope that those railing against Christianity would actually read the Gospels, go to church once or twice, see and hear what ordinary Christians believe, teach, and hold in our hearts. &amp;nbsp;I can almost guarantee it will change your outlook, because, at the end of the day, we have the strength that comes from principle, conviction, and guiding faith. &amp;nbsp;It seems all you have is heavy-handed rhetoric, and this elitist idea of being the &amp;quot;progressive intellectuals&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;Both pitiful and sad. &amp;nbsp;But we'll keep praying for you.</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#425916</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 05:14:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:425916</guid><dc:creator>Constitutional Rights, Central PA</dc:creator><description>I agree with a lot of what Mike stands for, BUT lets be careful about allowing amendments to the Constitution! If we allow religion to rule we've already chipped more of our freedoms away, when the right to life presents itself as an amedment we've lost even more; remember if it's not enumerated in the Constitution it's left for the STATE to determine. In these past 6 years we've given up and lost more than I care to get into, we've got to be careful what we ask for. Protection from terror has cost us dearly = good bye freedom (WIRETAPS etc.)and good bye $$$$(TAXES). Let's wake-up by reading that ever more flimsy piece of paper call the Constitution and hold out for those rights and small government. Bring America back to it's once great and envied position in the world.

Yes. &amp;nbsp;Do I think he does a lot of good, also yes. &amp;nbsp;But I also think he should have continued to support the sheriff he believed did good, despite the sheriff being a democrat. &amp;nbsp;That kind of backbone takes personal integrity. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have no issues with religious beliefs until they make no sense. &amp;nbsp;The same goes for politics as well. &amp;nbsp;If a politician is corrupt you identify and rid of them, not try to sweep their corruption practices aside by saying the guy in the other party is worse. &amp;nbsp;Even if he is worse, your guy is still bad.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Other terribly hateful statements come from people who say 9-11 is God's punishment on the US for letting gays have more freedom and rights. &amp;nbsp;Here again, you can be religious, but if you stand there and allow other &amp;quot;religious&amp;quot; people to speak out in such a manner without comment, that's not the right thing to do. &amp;nbsp;I think in general, while politicians that are hypocrites are considered &amp;quot;business as usual&amp;quot; religious people who do the same are not tolerated. &amp;nbsp;One asks themselves, what do private citizens gain by not practicing what they preach? &lt;br&gt;What does your spiritual leader gain by emphasizing such behavior?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Belief is good thing, but one should never claim to have &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot; to rationalize willful blindness. &amp;nbsp;People shouldn't allow themselves to be led around by the nose. &amp;nbsp;Unfortunately that kind of statement makes a lot of people uncomfortable.&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#432812</link><pubDate>Fri, 26 Oct 2007 15:48:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:432812</guid><dc:creator>Bryant Lister, Gresham, Oregon</dc:creator><description>To Shawn Bartz of Clarkston, MI,&lt;br&gt;I made a few simple requests from you about this discussion, that you completely ignored. &amp;nbsp;Instead, you take my clarifying statements about the bible as some sort of insult and try to make the discussion all about that. &amp;nbsp;The facts are that there is no proof that most of the events(which involve mythical creatures and magic) in the bible stories ever occured, that makes them fairy tales. &amp;nbsp;The characters are just that characters, it's a statement of fact, unless you have some proof that the characters 'god' and 'satan' are real.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A truly intelligent person (your claimed IQ is irrelevant) would have stuck to the discussion at hand rather than resort to constantly changing the argument to be about something else. &amp;nbsp;You began by quoting the bible stories, I used your method to try and show that the bible does not contain all the 'love' and 'compassion' that you claim it does. &amp;nbsp;If you wanted to have an open and intelligent debate, then you should have responded to what I wrote, rather than dismissing it with no proof to back up your assertions that those quotes were 'taken out of context'. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm not the least bit interested in catching flies. &amp;nbsp;I was doing unto you as you were doing unto others, by quoting your bible stories to prove a point. &amp;nbsp;This was exactly what you did, I'm sorry that you now want to claim otherwise and ignore the discussion. &amp;nbsp;You state that I have nothing but slurs and insults, when in contrast I provided direct quotes with chapter and verse from bible stories to counter your assertion about that book. &amp;nbsp;Your reply was filled with insults and how I was taking things out of context, but you offered nothing to back that up. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yes, praying to an imaginary being makes you delusional, and there was a famous medical study done at UCLA to back that up. &amp;nbsp;The same brain centers activate when people are religiously praying as when people are having delusions. &amp;nbsp;I know that reality and facts are something you find insulting, but I would have hoped that an intelligent and open minded person would be able to deal with facts. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now you claim that you won't respond further, when you haven't ever responded directly to the points I made. &amp;nbsp;You simply try to deflect the argument in another direction, rather than addressing the specific facts I brought up. &amp;nbsp;I can't say I'm surprised, this is exactly the type of tactic I have come to expect. &amp;nbsp;It's very close minded and certainly not an intelligent way to have a discussion. &amp;nbsp;However, I can only control my words, and can't make you participate in an honest and accurate way.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Thank you, Chuck Norris!</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/22/424613.aspx#433219</link><pubDate>Fri, 26 Oct 2007 18:10:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:433219</guid><dc:creator>Joe Dorsey Arkadelphia, Arkansas</dc:creator><description>Huck has got a little water on his brain when it comes to some things but I guess all of us have. He referred to a Serial raptist who was incarcerated in the Arkansas Prison system by first name and then said &amp;quot;I seriously doubt Wayne Dumond's guilt&amp;quot;. Arkansas wouldn't parole him in the state but Missouri excepted terms of his parole. He wasn't on the ground good till he killed again. As far as character I agree with Chuck. If he's alright with Chuck he alright with me.
