Democracy...





>>>Almost 60 percent of those polled said they thought Clinton was fit 
to be
>>>president. By what standard? That's the trouble. Americans have no
>>>standards -- no unchangeable yardsticks by which they measure right 
and
>>>wrong, truth from fiction.
>
>>By *their* standard, by their own personal judgement. There's no moral
>>yardstick, and God help us if there is in the future. Who makes the
>>yardstick? Who sits down and says, "This is the moral standard in this
>>country, abide by it or suffer the consequences"?

>Sorry but there are absolutes and there is a moral yardstick.  Whether 
this

>There has to be absolutes otherwise any action can be excused (or 
damned).
>  The real cry should be
>"God help us to instigate Your yardstick".  God doesn't change and 
neither
>does His measure.
>
>1)Love the Lord, with all your heart, with all you soul with all your 
mind
>and all your strength
>2)Love you neibour as yourself.

>Everything else hangs on these.

Ever heard of seperation of church and state? Democracy? the rights of 
the individual?  While you certainly have the right to practice your 
religion in what ever manner you so choose demanding that everyone else 
does, or that the president of the us of ais subject to you PERSONAL 
faith decisions is outragous
